Trump Media sued over paid early access to Trump's policy posts on Truth Social
President Donald Trump was sued in federal court on Wednesday over a paid subscription service, Truth API, that gives Wall Street firms early exclusive access to his policy posts on Truth Social for as much as USD 100,000 a month. The plaintiffs, including the Freedom of the Press Foundation and The Intercept, allege the arrangement violates the First and Fifth Amendments and ask the court to force Trump Media & Technology to end the paid service and its exclusive access deal. Trump Media said selling fast access to traders is common in its industry and accused the plaintiffs of trying to weaponize the courts.
