And the Grifting Goes On

I saw a news brief on how Trump is offering an investment advisory service to paying investors. I queried AI and this is what Copilot told me.

"Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), which owns Truth Social, launched a paid data feed called Truth API.

The API gives subscribers split‑second early access to posts from the 10 most influential accounts on Truth Social—including Trump himself.

Pricing:

$100,000 per month for top‑tier access

$60,000 per month for firms committing to a three‑year plan

More than 10 high‑frequency trading firms have already signed up.

This is being marketed to Wall Street because Trump’s posts frequently move markets—tariffs, foreign policy, energy decisions, etc. A few milliseconds of early access can mean huge profits for algorithmic traders".

The Trump Crime Family just keeps getting bolder and bolder. It's time for a regime change. And it's time to put a per-unit tax on algorithmic trading. Make the vulture capitalists pay for some of the chaos they're creating. They're certainly not creating value, rather they're only lining their pockets.
