Brett Cooper

Like someone maybe had private intel about her schedule, about where she had to go next if she had a prior commitment, or possibly, maybe, she was doing something intentionally, allegedly, allegedly, presumably, theoretically,

is what I am trying to say.

I'm not accusing anyone.

I am just trying to point out what the internet has started to speculate and what they have started to notice in all these comment sections.

And you might say, okay, well, Brett, like what does that matter?

It is a press conference.

That kind of vet is harmless.

I'm sure it's very regulated.

I'm sure it's very illegal.

Like that cannot be happening.

But you would be wrong.

You'd absolutely be wrong.

And honestly, something being illegal has never stopped our government in the first place.

So we could just go ahead and mark that down.

But anyway, back to the point.

While the app Kalshi, because these are two different groups, while Kalshi has stricter laws in place, Polymarket, which is arguably the more popular site, it's the one that I come across most frequently on social media, they operate offshore.

They do not require traditional ID verification to sign up, and they use crypto wallets instead of bank accounts.

And obviously, cryptocurrency is lauded as the thing that is very private and secure.

It is anonymous.

And so while I, somebody who has never met anything, does not spend any time on these apps, like literally has never interacted with them, I initially saw these two platforms as being synonymous.
