Trump Media is launching Truth API, a paid data feed that will deliver Trump’s Truth Social posts directly to institutional trading firms in milliseconds. The company designed the product for high-frequency traders whose computer systems can buy or sell stocks before ordinary investors have time to read the president’s announcement. Trump’s posts regularly move financial markets. His announcement pausing many of his tariffs sent the S&P 500 up 9.5% and restored roughly $4 trillion in value. His support for the U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel transaction sent U.S. Steel shares soaring 21%. His comments about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac sent their shares up 33% and 27%. Trump remains the sole beneficiary of a trust holding approximately 41% of Trump Media. His company is creating a revenue stream from rapid access to statements he makes while exercising presidential power. Government decisions affecting tariffs, national security, federal contracts, investments, and individual corporations should never become proprietary content enriching the president. Congress must pass legislation prohibiting presidents, vice presidents, and senior administration officials from profiting from official communications, government information, or access to public office. Market-moving presidential announcements must be distributed simultaneously through public government channels, without a paid lane reserved for corporations and Wall Street traders. Click START WRITING to demand Congress stop Trump and every future president from turning public power into private profit. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-presidents-from-profiting-from-public-office
