Karine Jean-Pierre is currently scheduled to give press briefing on December 10 at 2:00 PM ET. This market pertains to the opening statement as well as any following Q&A session. You can watch this briefing here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-suJBz351c

This market will resolve to "Yes" if KJP says "Assad" or "al-Assad" during the White House press briefing. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". 

Any usage of the word regardless of context will count toward the resolution of this market. 

Pluralization/possessive of the word will count toward the resolution of this market, however other forms will NOT count.

Compound words will count as long as "Assad" or "al-Assad" is part of the compound word and references the meaning which refers to the former president of Syria Bashar al-Assad or his family.

If no such press briefing happens by December 17, 2024, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No".

The resolution source will be video and transcripts of the press briefing.

Outcome: No
