Rep. Jamie Raskin told CNN's Anderson Cooper that Truth Social's plan to charge $100,000 for early access to Trump's posts amounts to an insider trading scheme that likely violates the 2012 STOCK Act. Raskin described a pattern where Trump allegedly buys stock, then publicly promotes it shortly after, benefiting those with paid early access to his posts.
Raskin characterized the arrangement as turning the White House into what he called an insider trading conspiracy, and compared the broader moment to a timed shopping-spree game, suggesting the administration is trying to extract as much financial gain as possible before the election.
