Transcript

This ad is brought to you by The New York Times. The amount of money that the Trump family has made since Donald Trump's gone back to the White House has become a defining feature of Trump's second term. This week, The New York Times investigative reporter Ross Buettner published a piece on yet another example. So this summer, Gurren Bobby Zhao, who's a foreign national, came out of nowhere and bought about a hundred million dollars worth of tokens from Trump's World Liberty Financial. Who exactly is this guy? Well, Ross followed the money. He searched through confidential documents and court records and conducted dozens of interviews to help uncover who exactly Bobby Zhao really is and what he was really doing investing in Trump's cryptocurrency. The reporting you depend on like that is what this show depends on and it starts long before the headline. It's not just the Times, it's the Journal, it's ProPublica, it's your local newspaper. Anywhere reporters are still working a beat they gather all the facts they find the story they talk to all their sources and they distill it all down so you can learn what matters most in just minutes and that's what journalists do.
