Democratic senators seek White House response over Kalshi market trading allegation

U.S. Democratic Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Jeff Merkley have asked the White House to explain allegations that a former teleprompter operator profited in Kalshi’s mention markets by using advance access to President Donald Trump’s speeches, according to The Block. The senators said the alleged insider trading by an individual in a position of public trust and close to the president should have served as a wake-up call for the administration to enforce stronger ethics policies.
