Trump's Firm Plans $100K Monthly Fee For Faster Truth Social Posts
Donald Trump's company, TMTG, is planning to charge big money to Wall Street firms for faster access to his posts on Truth Social.
They want $100,000 a month, or a discounted rate if firms sign up for three years.
This is because Trump's posts can move markets, and faster access can mean more money for traders.
Some people, like Senator Wyden and ethics watchdogs, think this is unfair and could be unethical.
They worry it might benefit Trump and his family financially.
The company says they've already signed up some customers, but they haven't said who.
Trump owns a big part of the company through a trust his children manage.
Critics say this could be a way for Trump to profit from his presidency, but it's not clear if it's illegal.
TMTG plans to charge up to $100,000/month for faster access to Trump's Truth Social posts via Truth API.
Discounted $60,000/month plan available for 3-year commitments.
Truth API to launch on August 1, 2025, providing round-the-clock coverage of influential posts.
Critics, including Senator Wyden and ethics watchdogs, raise concerns about potential unethical profits from presidency.
Trump owns 41% of TMTG stock through a trust managed by his children.
