Laura Lee's Sin Bin - Gabriel Perez

from WAPL Mornings with Laura Lee & Cutter · host Laura Lee and Cutter

A White House teleprompter operator allegedly turned his job into the easiest insider-trading scheme imaginable. According to federal investigators, Gabriel Perez, who's been running Trump's teleprompter since 2016 and often sees the final speech drafts, including last-minute edits, allegedly bet on Kalshi's "Mentions" markets, where people wager on whether certain words or topics will be said during a speech. Investigators believe he placed bets on more than a dozen speeches and made over $100,000 before Kalshi's own fraud detection noticed the suspicious pattern and reported it to regulators. He even allegedly adjusted or backed out of bets mid-speech when Trump went off script. He's now on unpaid leave and reportedly in settlement talks with federal regulators. For cheating the system in the most obvious way, Perez should feel shame, shame, shame.
