Trump Media's Truth API Under Fire | Business and Finance News

Trump Media is under fire for its new Truth API subscription service, which gives trading firms early access to President Trump’s social media posts—sometimes fractions of a second before the public sees them. Critics, including The Intercept and the Freedom of the Press Foundation, argue this violates the First and Fifth Amendments by creating unequal access to presidential information and enabling market manipulation. Over ten trading firms have already signed up, with the company’s CEO openly boasting about the speed advantage. Senators are now calling on the SEC to investigate whether this undermines market integrity, as suspicious trading patterns have been spotted following some of Trump’s posts. The legal battle centers on whether paid access to official announcements crosses into corruption—and whether the public should be denied equal footing in the marketplace of news.
