SAN JOSE, Calif., July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On Wednesday, July 29, hundreds of San Jose city employees and members of IFPTE Local 21 and MEF-AFSCME Local 101 will attend Strike School to learn what it means to strike and the laws that protect their right to strike. Organization around Strike School comes after months of stalled negotiations between city workers and the City Administration. Workers have signed a strike pledge and held several informational pickets to shed light on San Jose being the most thinly staffed agency in the state, as well as the City’s implementation of AI without any guardrails, which further jeopardizes quality public services. Workers are forced to do more with less across all city departments. This Strike School session comes as the second of two- the first took place on Saturday, July 25, with hundreds of members in attendance.

Who: Hundreds of City of San Jose employees represented by IFPTE Local 21 and MEF-AFSCME Local 101. Spokespeople will be available for interviews before the members-only program.

What: San Jose Strike School Session #2

When/Where: Wednesday, July 29, 2026, at San Jose First United Methodist Church (24 N 5th St, San Jose, CA 95112). The program begins at 5:30 pm; registration begins at 5:00 pm

Visuals: Workers in blue, green, and teal union shirts, with banners and picket signs

BACKGROUND: In June, after receiving the City’s Last, Best, and Final Offer (LBFO) and working to reach a deal before contract expiration and City Council’s summer recess, San Jose workers called for mediation in order to reach a fair agreement.

Now, at the end of July, members of both unions have been without a contract for over a month. Instead of investing in our community, city officials have elected to spend taxpayer money on corporate giveaways through massive contracts with ineffective AI companies and an outrageous $325 million subsidy towards hockey arena renovations. The City could develop a strategy that ensures corporations pay their fair share from benefitting directly from city services. Instead, San Jose insists on cutting taxes for some of the largest corporations that occupy the city, while residents and working families pay more. Workers are preparing to go on strike if necessary.

First-of-its-kind prediction market media company brings top prediction market traders into conversation with journalists, investors, founders and policymakers on 2x per week live show and daily news.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Gone are the days when the world’s top forecasters are relegated to niche blogs and Discord servers. Today, Eventual announces the launch of a company built from within prediction markets, dedicated to bringing top traders into conversation with the leaders who shape how we understand the world. Eventual will use video, audio, written, and live event content to elevate the voice of prediction market traders, and to make their work more relevant and entertaining to the outside world. 

Eventual is founded by Alex Keeney, a former Politico journalist, who made a name for himself in the then-embryonic prediction market industry while writing and hosting the Star Spangled Gamblers podcast. He now brings those long-standing relationships, trading instincts, and creative abilities to Eventual.

“Prediction markets are a powerful tool for understanding our future. But they need skilled humans to translate their insights,” said Keeney.

Some of those humans joining Eventual as contributors include:

Domer — Widely recognized as the world’s most prominent prediction market trader with over $400M in trading volume.Brian Golden aka “Prince Hal” — A trader recently made famous for outfoxing Wall Street each month with his inflation forecasts. Brian is a former journalist and screenwriter who consistently ranks among the world’s most profitable traders.Caleb Davies aka “Gaetan Dugas” — Among the most respected traders in the space, Davies has been a subject of profiles in The New York Times and Washington Post. He has earned more than $1M trading prediction markets.Paul Krishnamurty — A UK-based professional gambler who pioneered political betting both as a bettor and oddsmaker. 

Additional contributors include Doug Campbell, PhD economist, founder of PolyTrader Pro, and longtime whale; William Kedjanyi, a UK-based journalist and analyst; and Mick Bransfield, a leading expert on prediction market regulation. Eventual expects to add more contributors soon. Eventual’s founding team also includes managing editor Pratik Chougule, who will be responsible for written content. Chougule also serves as Executive Director of the Coalition for Political Forecasting, a nonprofit dedicated to liberalizing regulations on political betting in order to serve the public interest.

“Even when markets miss, these people don’t. They have a skill for thinking probabilistically and will help us deliver a product that is additive; one that is capable of sharpening the great work that journalists, academics, investors, and other domain experts are already doing,” Keeney added.

Eventual will launch with a data partnership with Polymarket and will publish on Substack.

Eventual raised a Seed round with participation from LightShed Ventures, Riverside Ventures, Juniper Ventures and notable angel Bryan Goldberg.

“Prediction markets have gotten it right when pollsters, pundits and so-called experts got it wrong, over and over. The traders making those calls are a new type of expert class and are among the sharpest forecasters in the world, but they’ve been hiding in Discord servers and niche corners of the internet. Eventual makes them the centerpiece of a new kind of media business,” said Richard Greenfield, General Partner at LightShed Ventures.

Eventual’s flagship show is hosted by Keeney and top prediction market traders twice weekly. Written pieces will be released daily.
