This market will resolve to “Yes” if Pete Hegseth ceases to be U.S. Secretary of Defense for any period of time between market creation and the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An announcement of Pete Hegseth's resignation/removal before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal goes into effect. The resolution source for this market will be official information from Pete Hegseth and the U.S. government; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's abrupt ouster of Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George and two other top generals on April 2—amid the U.S. war with Iran entering its fifth week—signals his consolidated authority at the Pentagon rather than vulnerability, with no official announcements of resignation, firing, or replacement. Confirmed by the Senate in a 51-50 vote on January 24, 2025, Hegseth has pursued a broader leadership purge without pushback from the Trump administration threatening his tenure. This stability drives trader consensus implying 92.9% odds he remains in office past April 30, though escalation in Iran, scandals, or White House shifts could still prompt change.
