A Nevada congressional candidate and a former celebrity car dealer has been slapped with a sweeping ban from MGM Resorts properties across the country after months of fiery social media attacks on the casino giant, according to TMZ.

MGM fired off a cease-and-desist letter threatening Republican Bobby Khan with arrest, fines, and jail time if he sets foot at any of their Vegas Strip locations, including the Bellagio, Aria, Cosmopolitan, MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, Luxor, New York-New York, Excalibur, and Vdara.

"The letter, obtained by TMZ, also warns Bobby to stay the hell away from T-Mobile Arena in Vegas ... plus Borgata in New Jersey, Beau Rivage in Mississippi, MGM National Harbor in Maryland, and MGM Springfield in Massachusetts ... among others," the report said.

The drastic move comes after Khan reportedly posted relentlessly on Instagram to his 90,000 followers about MGM's inflated hotel prices, which he claims have priced out everyday Las Vegas residents. His posts frequently feature him walking through casinos, criticizing what he sees as price-gouging.

Khan's fuming campaign team accused MGM of weaponizing their legal team rather than engaging with legitimate criticism. The casino chain's letter made clear it would be their final word on the matter.

Khan, who served time for wire fraud, is running for Congress in Nevada's 1st District, which encompasses portions of Las Vegas and the Strip.

Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!”

Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!”

The post Coinbase Issues Cryptocurrency Call to US Justice Department: “Solve Urgent Problems!” appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States, stated that there should be uniform cryptocurrency regulation in the country. At this point, Coinbase sent a letter to the US Department of Justice requesting that federal regulators prevent state regulations from conflicting with national crypto policies and ensure uniform regulatory clarity. Coinbase’s request comes after the state of Oregon filed a lawsuit against Coinbase for unregistered securities, despite the SEC withdrawing its lawsuit against the cryptocurrency exchange. Coinbase states that although the country’s top regulator, the SEC, withdrew its lawsuit, states are filing lawsuits in defiance of the SEC’s decision. In the letter, addressed by Coinbase Legal Counsel Paul Grewal, he stated: “Despite the Trump administration’s positive regulatory efforts, crypto companies are being negatively impacted by states’ flawed interpretations of securities laws and their divergent actions. If Oregon can sue us for services that are legal under federal law, we have a problem. It has long been clear that the current patchwork of state laws is not only inefficient, but also slows innovation and harms consumers. At this point, the Justice Department should take steps to address the pressing issues by calling on Congress to step in and enact comprehensive and uniform regulations.” Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield filed a lawsuit against Coinbase last April, alleging that Coinbase was promoting the sale of unregistered cryptocurrencies to individuals in Oregon. *This is not investment advice.
