    Trump’s unauthorized strikes & war-based prediction markets: Make Them Hear You KGNU News

 

Make Them Hear You is a weekly commentary segment by Chris Mohr, encouraging you to make your voice heard by your legislators.

This week, Mohr talks about  upcoming war powers votes in both the House and the Senate that would restrict Trump’s ability to carry out further attacks in Iran. He also discusses Trump’s drone strikes on Iran, which did not receive congressional approval. This comes amidst the push to release millions of the Epstein files in the United States.

Mohr also discussed Polymarket betting amongst government workers and officials regarding the ongoing war.

“Some people made fortunes betting on the date the US would bomb Iran, placing their wagers hours before the first missiles on the poly market platform where Donald Trump Jr. sits on the advisory board. Six new Polymarket accounts hauled in a million dollars,” Mohr said.
