## Resource

Rita unpacks the bizarre allegation that a White House teleprompter operator made nearly $100,000 by placing inside bets on the President's speeches. She also dives into President Trump's national address—which ABC and NBC notoriously refused to broadcast—where he claimed that China successfully exposed the data of 220 million Americans.
