How this market settles

If the number of articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth that the U.S. House of Representatives adopts is at least 1 before Jan 1, 2027, then the market resolves to Yes. Each article of impeachment against Pete Hegseth that the House of Representatives adopts counts as one, whether it is adopted alone, together with other articles in one resolution, or in a separate impeachment. Does NOT count: An article that is introduced, referred to committee, tabled or otherwise not adopted by the House

What could still go wrong

  • The term 'adopts' is used but the description clarifies it excludes introduced, referred, tabled, or otherwise not passed articles — however 'adopts' could theoretically be interpreted differently in edge cases such as a voice vote or procedural adoption without a recorded vote.
  • The end date/time is specified as 2027-01-01T13:59:00Z which is not midnight UTC on Jan 1, 2027 — this unusual cutoff time could cause disputes about articles adopted between midnight and 13:59 UTC on Jan 1, 2027.
  • No official source or tracking mechanism is specified for confirming adoption of articles of impeachment.
