plan in mind, to set up legal precedent so this DeSantis trick isn't played with other tribes in other states, so they don't become tools of mafia. Republicans in Florida are a mafia. DeSantistan is already full of 'fake spokes' middlemen who already rig voting and vote counts. Interception of wire transactions would be nothing for them.

I think Haaland would prefer to play the ruling as a blow, but I don't think she'd fight this. I prefer to think she's glad for this ruling.

No Casinos needs to keep the legal press on and push for state referenda only on all future gambling. Which probably won't happen, because DeSantis knows state referenda on gambling wouldn't pass. If he could, he'd be like Trump, play the people and hope they won't notice while he rakes in his cut.
