Polymarket removed bets tied to rescue of downed Air Force officer

Polymarket removed a market that allowed bets on the rescue date of a downed Air Force officer for failing integrity standards.

Representative Seth Moulton publicly condemned the market and banned his staff from using prediction platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi.

Polymarket said it immediately took the market down and is investigating how it passed internal safeguards after previously handling large Iran-related trades.
