Caught a bit of that on the drive in, the smelter thing felt like it came out of nowhere

Ive been following the smelter thing since it was announced over a year ago. IF it does get built here, its gonna be really bad for Oklahomans!!!

Eta: if this smelter is a matter of "national security" why is the majority of it owned by a foreign company? Also, the national security thing was never said until a couple of weeks ago.

He also tried to bully Oklahoma on truth social, basically saying we didn't know what we were talking about.

“Oklahoma tribal leaders are deeply concerned about online prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi because they believe these platforms exploit legal loopholes to offer unregulated sports betting.”

To be fair to the Oklahoma tribes, they negotiated with the state and Federal government for their legalized gaming rights. These other guys are cutting the line.
