Donald Trump has been sued by The Intercept Media and the Freedom of the Press Association to block his new Truth API service, which charges $100,000 per month for advance notifications of his posts on Truth Social. The lawsuit argues this scheme violates constitutional amendments by giving paying subscribers preferential access to public announcements. Trump Media CEO Kevin McGurn stated the company has signed over 10 customer agreements for Truth API, with payments ranging from $60,000 to $100,000 per month.
