The Teleprompter's Temptation: A Cautionary Tale of Access and Betrayal Gabriel Perez, a technical assistant who has operated Trump's teleprompter since 2016, stands accused of betting on the content of more than a dozen speeches through the online platform Kalshi.
According to allegations, Perez made over $100,000 in winnings by exploiting his access to the president's speeches.
This is not an isolated incident but rather a symptom of a larger issue: the insidious creep of insider trading and its disregard for ethics in high places.
