A YouTube Finance Show on the White House Site? What Happened?
A strange event occurred on Thursday. A YouTube video about money appeared on the White House website. This was not supposed to happen.
The video was from a live stream by a YouTuber named Matt Farley, who talks about investments and stocks. His video was on the White House site for about eight minutes.
How Did This Happen?
No one knows how this happened. It could be a hack or maybe someone in the government made a mistake. The White House said they are looking into it.
Farley himself was surprised. He found out about it after it happened. He joked that he hoped the President and his son were watching. He also said he would have talked about different things if he knew his video would be on the White House site.
Not the First Time
This is not the first time something like this has happened. The Trump administration has had other digital security problems.
- Last year, Iran hacked into Trump's campaign and stole important documents.
- This year, someone pretended to be the President's chief of staff and sent fake messages to important people.
Farley's Reaction
Farley is just a regular guy making videos about stocks. He said he would have talked about anything if he had the chance to speak to the world for eight minutes. But he is not sure how his video ended up on the White House site. He has no theories about it.
