Who is going to print up the teleprompter tonight after this report
that the other guy is now under investigation for making money
>> Yeah.
>> off of reading the president's speech?
>> Obviously, I'm aware of the report. The president is too. I spoke with him about it.
He believes it's deeply unfortunate
and frankly a disgrace.
Uh and the individual that was cited in that report uh is complying with the CFTC, but has been put on paid administrative leave.
I'm sorry, without pay. The administrative leave is unpaid um to be very clear.
That was a decision by the president.
So, I think that speaks for itself.
>> On the um concerns about
>> Okay, it sent shockwaves uh across Washington.
President Trump's long-time prompter operator now under investigation for insider trading after he allegedly made $100,000 by betting on the president's speech.
He would see them and then bet on what the president would say.
For more on this, Outkick would say.
founder uh Clay Travis and Fox News contributor uh joins me now.
Clay, um
wow.
I knew a lot of people were betting on these markets in Washington, but never someone that was so close to the president who's been doing this for I think a decade.
Reading the speeches and then actively, you know, betting on it and making money.
>> Yeah, I think the challenge here, Aisha, is this is a predetermined outcome that many people would know in advance of the actual event itself, right?
So, this is different than, say, a sporting event when we've got the World Cup coming up and you don't know what's going to happen at all.
Uh there have been some of these so-called markets in reality shows, for instance, that are taped uh and you can make different sorts of predictions about what's going to happen on them.
And here, obviously, as you well know, many people get access to the president's speeches before they're actually delivered.
Now, to be fair, President Trump goes off the teleprompter quite a lot, so there are many things he says that are not already uh in that prompter, but this is something that shouldn't frankly be allowed.
allowed. I think it's to me a bad market because again, these speeches are pre-written and so you have definite knowledge from a wide variety of people, which makes it a hard market to treat as a as a fair process by which to be putting money down.
>> I think Cal and Polymarket should just get rid of those parts of the market.
>> I think they both Yeah, I think Cal and Polymarket need to be looking at markets that are out there that have already been determined, right?
There's a difference between a market that's uncertain, who's going to be the next governor of California for instance, and what President Trump is going to say in a in a speech in 10 minutes that's already written.
>> And the thing is that this isn't a one-off.
I mean, you remember that the US soldier who bet on the Maduro capture when that was going to happen.
There was also this
from the New York Times. In April, three political candidates were found trying to bet on their own races. In June, federal authorities said they were investigating whether former representative George Santos had made a bet about attending Mr. Trump's State of the Union address.
I mean, this this is rampant, you know, all over definitely the nation's capital, but I mean, people are just taking such an interest with the president
that this is running so rampant. So, I I
I agree with you. I think there has to be changes made for for this to not happen again.
