Truth Social has signed Bloomberg and two high-frequency trading firms, Susquehanna International Group and Jump Trading, for faster access to President Trump’s posts through the Truth API, at a price of up to $100,000 per month per client.

The service promises a 50-millisecond edge, allowing subscribers to read posts moments before others and potentially trigger rapid market moves.

Faster access is tied to the market impact of Trump’s statements, which have previously moved markets, including oil futures, prompting real-time trading responses.

Industry reaction includes criticism from Democrats and media organizations who call the service ethically questionable and potentially problematic under securities law.

The White House has not directly addressed the allegations; a spokesperson said the focus is on serving the public interest.

The arrangement raises potential conflict-of-interest concerns given the president’s influence over policy-related information that can affect asset prices.

This may be the first instance of a business tied to a sitting president selling access to his statements, drawing ethical and legal scrutiny.

The deals may represent the first time a political figure or related business has sold real-time access to statements, raising ethical and legal questions.

The deals have drawn ethical criticism and raised questions about legality and transparency as a sitting-president–associated business monetizes presidential statements.

Reuters says it will review the service but has no plans to subscribe.

Senators Warren and Schiff asked the SEC to assess potential securities-law violations, and Intercept Media with the Freedom of the Press Foundation filed suit to challenge exclusive government announcements on Truth Social while paid access exists.

Lawsuits argue unconstitutional barriers to government information and potential First/Fifth Amendment violations, highlighting ongoing legal challenges.
