This market will resolve to "Yes" if the United States federal government formally charges or announces a criminal indictment of Barack Obama by December 31, 2026 11:59pm ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market the District of Columbia and any county, municipality, or other subdivision of a State shall be included within the definition of a State. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from US governmental sources, however a wide consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Trader consensus on an over 90% probability that former President Barack Obama will not face federal charges before 2027 reflects the absence of any indictment or formal criminal action against him despite referrals and a 2025 grand jury probe into Obama-era officials over 2016 Russia-related intelligence claims. The Department of Justice under Attorney General Pam Bondi has examined allegations from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, yet no charges have materialized against Obama personally amid standard procedural hurdles for prosecuting ex-presidents. Historical patterns from prior reviews, including the Durham investigation, show limited movement toward senior-level indictments, reinforcing market pricing on the low likelihood of resolution by the December 31, 2026 deadline.
