00:00But the other question is, who is running the teleprompter tonight after this report that the other guy is now
00:05under investigation for making money off of reading the president's speech?
00:09Obviously, I'm aware of the report. The president is, too. I spoke with him about it.
00:13He believes it's deeply unfortunate and, frankly, a disgrace.
00:17And the individual that was cited in that report is complying with the CFTC but has been put on paid
00:23administrative leave.
00:24So there will be a teleprompter operator tonight, of course, but it will not be the one, unfortunately, in that
00:29story.
00:30Well, the White House has extremely strict ethical guidelines with respect to issues like this.
00:36And as I just told you, this individual will no longer be here.
00:40He'll be on paid administrative leave. I'm sorry, without pay.
00:43The administrative leave is unpaid, to be very clear.
00:47That was a decision by the president. So I think that speaks for itself.
