San Francisco filed a lawsuit against Trump Media alleging its Truth API sells early access to President Trump's posts and facilitates insider trading and unfair competition. The complaint calls the service a “pay-to-play” scheme that lets select customers trade on nonpublic, market-moving government statements and cites examples of price moves after Trump posts.
