Trump poised to label DEI as 'woke' amid Iran ceasefire talks
Kalshi prices this DEI / Woke at 99%.
Betting markets are betting heavily that Donald Trump will invoke the term "DEI" or "woke" before July, with the crowd assigning an overwhelming probability (99%) and the odds remaining essentially flat (0 pts) over the past day. The market, lightly traded overall ($80.5K), resolves in about two weeks on whether Trump makes such a remark. Meanwhile, all eight outlets report a preliminary U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement and note Trump’s recent foreign‑policy comments, from ordering a naval blockade halt to pivoting focus toward Ukraine. The market’s confidence outpaces the coverage, which does not address the DEI angle.
