Senator Mark Warner urged major Wall Street trade groups to reject Trump Media's Truth API, a paid data feed offering early access to President Trump's Truth Social posts at $60,000–$100,000 per month. Banks have shown no interest in the product, citing political risk and conflict-of-interest concerns around paying for early access to government policy statements.

◆ The Wire takeaway
Market data that carries political toxicity is unsellable, even at scale. If you're building financial data products, this tells you where the line now sits: banks will reject access that looks like paying for government advantage, regardless of technical merit or price.
