.@Kalshi tried to get out of following our laws in New York.
They lost in court.
@GovKathyHochul and I will continue to hold all gambling platforms accountable — including prediction markets.
My office, @NewJerseyOAG, and @helloDCWP are investigating @FIFAcom after reports of soaring World Cup ticket prices and fans not getting seats as advertised.
New Yorkers have been waiting years for the World Cup to happen here. They deserve a fair shot at affordable tickets.
NEWS: The attorneys general of New York and New Jersey have launched an investigation into FIFA’s 2026 World Cup ticketing practices. Subpoenas have been sent in what appears to be the most serious probe yet of the ticket sales process. https://t.co/kWJUvMDI93

Once again, this administration is prioritizing big corporations over consumers.
When gambling platforms, including prediction markets, violate our laws, we will hold them accountable.
My office and @GovKathyHochul will keep defending our laws in court.

"For too long, Live Nation and Ticketmaster held fans captive. Now that era is coming to an end."
NEW: Following last week's landmark verdict, @NewYorkStateAG and Tennessee AG Skrmetti break down their bipartisan effort to take on Live Nation, in @RollingStone👇
.@Gemini and @coinbase's so-called prediction markets are just illegal gambling operations that expose young people to addictive platforms.
Gambling by another name is still gambling. I'm suing to stop these platforms from breaking the law.

Two big wins for state attorneys general this week: First the jury verdict in the Live Nation Ticketmaster trial, and now the judge halting the Nexstar-Tegna merger. Stark divide between the federal and state approach to antitrust right now
In a big victory for customers across the nation, a court has stopped Nexstar’s merger with Tegna as our lawsuit continues.
This win ensures local news remains independent and fees don’t climb higher.
I'll keep fighting to enforce the law and protect the future of local TV.
Breaking News: A federal judge paused the merger of Nexstar and Tegna in an ongoing legal battle over the consolidation of local TV station groups. https://t.co/O5WGoJt99q
The departure of @gailaslater could have gutted this case when the DOJ was focused on a sweetheart deal, not fighting for consumers. Instead, a bipartisan team of State AGs fought on and advanced the rule of law, not caving to the rule of lobbyists. https://t.co/J6xyPrFW8p
For years, Ticketmaster/Live Nation has abused its power against musicians, fans, and venues, dominating the live music industry while worsening it for everyone else.
This jury verdict holding that the company violated state and federal antitrust laws is a key first step towards ending Live Nation’s monopolistic control and securing real relief for those it harmed.
Congratulations to the state attorneys general who kept litigating the case after the Trump DOJ settled cheaply and bailed.
We just won our trial against @LiveNation and @Ticketmaster.
A jury ruled in our favor and is holding the companies responsible for their illegal monopoly that cost consumers millions of dollars.
This is a landmark victory to protect New Yorkers from harmful monopolies.
It’s official: a jury found that Live Nation/Ticketmaster is a monopoly. I am so proud to have filed this case on 2024. This may be the most popular antitrust case ever. Kudos to the State AGs for finishing the job. The rule of law is alive and well.
Breaking News: A jury found that Live Nation, which owns Ticketmaster, operated as a monopoly in violation of federal and state antitrust laws. https://t.co/kTSCNcLeio
