"He went on Instagram and he was like, 'Hey guys, I'm going to 100% be at the State of the Union. 100%, I'm going to be there. Here's my seat.' And then he immediately bet that he will not be at the State of the Union. So 4 people close to him have been working with the FTC on that."
Financial YouTuber Caleb Hammer revealed on Joe Rogan's podcast that George Santos is under investigation after allegedly betting against his own public statement about attending the State of the Union, immediately after receiving a sentence commutation from President Trump. Four people close to Santos reportedly cooperated with the FTC on the probe. Hammer noted that platforms like Calci make such insider trading difficult to trace, which may have motivated Santos's actions.
