    Journalist gets first nudged, then offers of $$, then death threats to change his reporting in order to make a polymarket bet settle the right way.

    Lo, no accord shall bloom 'twixt us and that realm, save they do kneel in token of their utter, soul-deep shame! No parley shall we hold, no treaty sign, until their will is broken, and their strength doth lie as dust before our might. -DJT, 3/6/26

      Scary stuff. And at some point, there will be another journalist who does change their story. 😞

        Gambling by another pseudo-intellectual name is still gambling. Regulate accordingly.

          Agree. Not sure how it could not be called gambling.
