“Profoundly Corrupt”: Trump Sued for Selling Early Access to His Truth Social Posts for $100K/Month — “The government can’t discriminate who it gives information to based on who they are, what they believe, what they’re willing to pay the president,” says Brendan Ballou (Public Integrity Project)

[Democracy Now!] speak[s] with Brendan Ballou, CEO of the Public Integrity Project, which is part of a lawsuit against President Donald Trump over his plan to monetize access to his social media platform Truth Social, where he routinely makes market-moving announcements. Truth API went live on August 1 and already has subscribers. Truth Social is charging up to $100,000 per month for early access to the president’s posts, giving investors an edge on major news events.

“It’s profoundly corrupt,” says Ballou. “The government can’t discriminate who it gives information to based on who they are, what they believe, what they’re willing to pay the president.”
