"The President is obviously trying to make money off of your information," - Newell of Trump's Truth API

Newell addresses Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) launching a premium business-to-business data feed called "Truth API," triggering intense backlash and legislative pushback. The service sells financial institutions, news organizations, and high-frequency trading firms machine-readable, millisecond-fast access to posts from 10 highly influential Truth Social accounts, prominently featuring President Donald Trump. Critics and Capitol Hill lawmakers are sounding the alarm, accusing the President of monetizing official government communications and creating a two-tiered market advantage for wealthy Wall Street insiders.
