The White House has condemned the actions of a teleprompter operator who allegedly made tens of thousands of dollars betting on President Trump's speeches. According to reports, the operator used a platform called Kalshi to place the bets. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has launched an investigation into the matter.

The Kalshi platform allows users to bet on a variety of events, including political speeches. The company has faced scrutiny in the past for its practices, and this incident may lead to further regulatory action. The White House has not commented on the specifics of the investigation, but has made it clear that the staffer's actions are not acceptable.
