"Moulton posted to X about speculation over the missing crew member, stating, 'Their safety is unknown. They could be your neighbor, a friend, a family member. And people are betting on whether or not they'll be saved. This is DISGUSTING.'"
"Kalshi allows bettors to wager whether the pilot will be rescued on specific dates, with options to buy yes or no on the outcomes, which Moulton criticized as a 'dystopian death market.'"
Rep. Seth Moulton criticized Kalshi for enabling betting on the fate of a missing U.S. fighter pilot after a plane was shot down over Iran. One pilot was rescued, but the other remains unaccounted for. Moulton expressed outrage on social media, emphasizing the personal connection to the missing service member. He highlighted that people are wagering on the pilot's rescue, which he deemed disgusting. Moulton also pointed out that Donald Trump Jr. is an investor in Kalshi, raising concerns about potential access to intelligence.
