This is true. So if gambling must be regulated at the national level (due to its on-line nature), the CFTC is as good a place to put it as any. But the whole "keep running or there will be a market emergency" is just pure bullshit. What product or service that we can't do without will be lost should Kalshi be shut down?
Exactly which commodity or asset is being represented by Kalshi? The Commodities Exchange Act was passed to prevent manipulation of commodity and asset markets and prices. And led to the creation of the CFTC. So, what underlying asset market is at risk here? Certainly nothing that by itself could be traded in a market (elections, wars, sporting events, etc.)

I'll believe they're serious when they start living the lifestyles they claim we'll need to curve the trend.
Which NOAA scientists are you referring to with the word "they"?
Nevermind how we are still around today because I don't recall two *humans* being on board, just Noah himself.
Eight humans were on the ark (according to the book of Genesis): Noah, his wife (not named in the bible), his three sons, and their wives.
