FPF and The Intercept sue over Truth Social's paid Truth API access to official posts
The Freedom of the Press Foundation and The Intercept filed a federal lawsuit in Manhattan on Aug. 12, 2026, challenging Truth Social's Truth API, a Trump Media service launched Aug. 1 that charges up to $100,000 a month for faster machine-readable access to posts from 10 high-profile accounts including President Donald Trump's. The plaintiffs argue that paid preferential access to official government announcements violates the First and Fifth Amendments and ask the court to bar Trump and White House officials from using Truth Social as an exclusive channel for official announcements. Trump and several White House officials are defendants; Trump Media & Technology Group, which owns Truth Social, is not a defendant.
