President Donald Trump’s media company has launched a paid subscription service on Truth Social that offers users access to posts from the website’s most prominent accounts milliseconds before they appear to the general public. While the company’s announcement does not specifically mention the US president’s account, his is the most popular on the site, with more than 13 million followers.
The service reportedly costs up to $100,000 (£74,170) per month, with a lower-priced $60,000 (£44,679) option also available.
