RAWA

A video surfaced this week which threatens to expose Sheldon Adelson as a hypocrite when it comes to his support of RAWA and his opposition to online gambling.

A teaser for The Tim James Show, which is scheduled to release its first episode on Wednesday, shows underage people gambling at Adelson’s Las Vegas casino, the Venetian.

The video also promises to show underage drinking taking place in the establishment and an interview with a prostitute that reportedly counts the Venetian as one of her frequent working grounds.
