00:00Did Eric Trump really just try to find out if a UFC event was rigged? Well, here's what we know
00:03so
00:03far. President Donald Trump just hosted a massive UFC Freedom 250 event on the White Health South
00:08Juan to celebrate America's 250th anniversary along with his 80th birthday. But right before
00:13it all started, UFC legend Daniel Cormier posted now deleted screenshots of alleged DMs of Eric
00:18Trump. In the text, Eric allegedly asked if any fights are rigged and mentioned betting on an
00:22upset. Along with those screenshots, Cormier's caption stated that he refused to stay silent
00:26about this kind of insider behavior. But then he deleted that post 15 minutes later. Following
00:30the post, Eric Trump immediately fired back, calling the screenshots absolutely fake and
00:34claiming that they were all AI. Meanwhile, Cormier just tweeted, are people really this dumb? And
00:38now people are turning to Elon Musk's AI Grok to see if the drama is real. But Grok itself
00:43confirmed that it has zero access to deleted metadata. This means that AI can't actually
00:47look into X's private archives to see if the tweet ever existed. It's literally just repeating
00:51the news headlines that it sees online. And now news reports are surfacing with Cormier telling
00:56cameras the whole thing is fake. But even if the texts are fake, people are believing it
01:03because Washington and betting sites have a wild synergy lately. Betting platforms like
01:07Kalshi, which Donald Trump Jr. has heavily supported, are facing massive insider trading scandals.
01:12Back in April, reports revealed that Kalshi had to find and suspend three congressional candidates
01:17for betting on their own races, including Virginia Independent Mark Moran, Texas Republican
01:21Ezequiel Enriquez, and Minnesota Democrat, Matt Klein. As a result, the Senate officially
01:26banned members with access to sensitive information from placing bets on upcoming events.
01:30Now, as for Eric Trump, he's currently reposting reports confirming that these texts aren't
01:34real, while he battles a hostile comment section from critics trying to prove Cormier is now lying
01:39about being hacked. So, insider trading or AI? Share your thoughts below and follow what's trending
