PANews, October 10 — According to The Wall Street Journal, prediction market Kalshi is investigating a series of suspicious trades on its platform related to Trump's new White House press secretary pick, with these trades betting that Trump would choose conservative commentator Katie Zacharia for the role. A Kalshi spokesperson confirmed the investigation but declined to comment further. The White House had previously announced that Zacharia would succeed Karoline Leavitt as press secretary. In July of this year, a White House teleprompter operator was fired for allegedly using inside information to bet on Trump's speech content on Kalshi.
