    can anyone here confirm that online gambling is now legal in the U.S.?

    I just read that it passed the 30 day mark, so it's now legal.
    Can anyone else confirm? Does this mean I can use a credit/DC to fund my sportsbook account? I was using ** to fund my Bet Phoenix account...

    Like Congress didn't reject it within the 30 day mark that they were supposed to try to make a case/argument about it/against it/whether or not it should be legal/illegal, it passed. Therefore online gambling is now legal. I just need confirmation.

    I haven't heard anything about this at all. I know that there is talk about making a deal on this in the future.
