Trump Teleprompter Operator Probed
Trump's teleprompter operator is under investigation for suspected insider trading on a prediction market platform
A federal investigation is underway into President Donald Trump's longtime teleprompter operator, Gabriel Perez, for alleged insider trading on the prediction market platform Kalshi, as reported by NPR and cnbc.com. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is reviewing betting activity linked to Perez, who allegedly made trades related to statements made by Trump, with profits amounting to over $90,000, according to timesofindia.indiatimes.com. This development is part of a broader scrutiny of prediction markets, which has also raised questions about the sale of early access to information, such as Trump's Truth Social posts, and whether such practices are legal, as discussed in related articles on SEC Rescinds 'No-Deny' Provisions and Trump Teleprompter Operator Probed for Insider Trading.
