With the gambling industry bringing in a record $71.9 billion in revenue last year, the personal-finance website WalletHub today released its report on 2025’s Most Gambling-Addicted States, as well as expert commentary, in order to highlight where this dangerous addiction is most prevalent.
WalletHub compared the 50 states across 20 key metrics. The data set ranges from the presence of illegal gambling operations to lottery sales per capita to the share of adults with gambling disorders.
OKLAHOMA CITY (April 17, 2025) – Legal counsel representing the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET) Fund Board of Investors filed a petition with the Oklahoma Supreme Court today seeking a declaratory judgment after a formal vote of the Board authorized legal action against improper interference by Attorney General Gentner Drummond.
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins today announced the cancellation of the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities (PCSC).
Following a thorough line by line review of each of these Biden era partnerships, it became clear that the majority of these projects had sky-high administration fees which in many instances provided less than half of the federal funding directly to farmers. The release today noted that select projects may continue if it is demonstrated that a significant amount of the federal funds awarded will go to farmers.
In a post on Truth Social and later by media release, President Donald J. Trump today has made his position clear. America will reset trade relationships with all who will welcome fairness in commerce or hammer those that do not – in this case, the Criminal Slaver Nation of Chinese Communists.
President Trump wrote, “Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately. At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable.
“Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 Countries have called Representatives of the United States, including the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, and the USTR, to negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed relative to Trade, Trade Barriers, Tariffs, Currency Manipulation, and Non Monetary Tariffs, and that these Countries have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape, or form against the United States, I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately,” President Trump continued.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter,” President Trump concluded.
Analysis: Republican President Donald J. Trump’s popularity has increased after his announcement of reciprocal tariffs worldwide on nations that have been ripping off America for decades. Fairness was found, in an exclusive DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners survey (over 1,000 registered voters conducted from March 31 to April 3), to ring up the Trump Administration’s popularity to “53 percent, a 4-point increase over last week when it was 49 percent.” But don’t tell Tulsa’s Leftist protestors.
It is striking that both young people and people of color are tired of playing the patsies to a greedy China, India, and European Union among others. The survey found Trump’s popularity “up by 13 points since March 7 among those aged 18 to 29” and “support among black voters skyrocketed 17 points since last week.”
