纽约7月29日路透电 —— 据路透社审阅的一封信件显示，民主党参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦和亚当·希夫已要求美国证券监管机构调查Truth Social母公司特朗普媒体（代码：DJT.O，打开新标签页）出售总统唐纳德·特朗普社交媒体帖子提前访问权限的计划是否违法。
特朗普媒体（简称TMTG）本月推出了一项付费授权数据信息流服务，将为交易公司提供“最快”访问包括特朗普账号在内的10个最具影响力Truth Social账户帖子的权限。这封于周二发出的信件加大了对该产品以及可能购买该信息流服务的华尔街公司的施压力度，一些业内人士称此举可能加剧法律、政治和监管风险。

“这似乎是对总统职位的公然滥用，以谋取个人私利，损害普通投资者和我们市场的诚信，同时让华尔街和其他富裕内部人士获利，”沃伦和希夫在7月28日给美国证券交易委员会（SEC）主席保罗·阿特金斯的信中说道。
SEC和由特朗普任命的自由市场派共和党主席阿特金斯的发言人确认已收到该信件，但拒绝进一步置评。
TMTG的一位发言人在电子邮件声明中表示：“参议院民主党人要么出于对自由市场的意识形态反对，要么未能理解公开信息和非公开信息之间的区别——或者两者兼而有之，从而歪曲了Truth API。”
白宫将置评请求转交给了该公司。
付费获取早期数据访问权
路透社和其他媒体此前报道称，特朗普媒体曾讨论对Truth API产品收取最高每月10万美元的费用。特朗普的社交媒体帖子过去曾撼动市场，许多顶级交易公司、对冲基金和金融服务公司的利润在很大程度上取决于他们以此类新闻进行交易的速度。
通过子女监管的信托基金持有特朗普媒体约41%股份的特朗普，将从这种付费访问模式中获利。该公司表示，已在8月1日上线前签下了客户，但未透露客户身份。
来自马萨诸塞州的沃伦和来自加州的希夫表示，Truth API是总统将个人商业与总统事务混为一谈的最新例证，引发了伦理问题。例如，特朗普上月报告称，他去年从家族的加密货币项目中获得了超过14亿美元的收入。
律师表示，尽管科技平台通常被允许向客户提供早期数据访问权，即使这会对部分市场参与者造成不利影响，但一些伦理专家称Truth API产品有所不同，因为特朗普的帖子属于政府信息，他有义务公开传播。
沃伦和希夫还指出，特朗普过去曾通过Truth Social背书包括花旗集团（代码：C.N，打开新标签页）、英特尔（代码：INTC.O，打开新标签页）和Palantir（代码：PLTR.O，打开新标签页）在内的特定股票，他们称这增加了内幕交易的风险，并破坏了投资者对市场公平竞争环境的信心。
在声明中，TMTG的发言人表示：“参议员们一定是基于公开可得信息发明了一种新的‘内幕交易’理论。”

NEW YORK, July 29 (Reuters) – Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Adam Schiff have asked the U.S. securities regulator to probe whether Truth Social parent Trump Media’s

plan to sell early access to President Donald Trump’s social media posts breaks the law, according to a letter reviewed by Reuters.
Trump Media, or TMTG, unveiled a paid, licensed data feed this month that will give trading firms “the fastest” access to posts from the 10 most influential Truth Social accounts, including Trump’s. The letter, sent on Tuesday, ramps up pressure on the product, as well as any Wall Street firms that may have bought the feed, potentially increasing what some industry sources said they believed to be legal, political and regulatory risks.

“This appears to be an outrageous abuse of the President’s office for his personal benefit that undermines everyday investors and the integrity of our markets, while enriching Wall Street and other wealthy insiders,” Warren and Schiff said in the July 28 letter to Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Paul Atkins.
A spokesperson for the SEC and Atkins, a free-market Republican appointed to the role by Trump who has generally taken a softer stance on enforcement, confirmed receiving the letter but declined to comment further.
“Senate Democrats continue to mischaracterize Truth API either out of ideological opposition to free markets or a failure to grasp the distinction between public and nonpublic information — or, quite possibly, both,” said a spokesperson for TMTG in an emailed statement.
The White House referred requests for comment to the company.
EARLY DATA ACCESS, FOR A PRICE
Trump Media has discussed charging as much as $100,000 a month for the Truth API product, Reuters and other media outlets have reported. Trump’s social media posts have in the past moved markets, and the profits of many top trading firms, hedge funds and financial services firms depend heavily on the speed at which they can trade off such news.
Trump, who owns about 41% of Trump Media through a trust his children oversee, stands to profit from the paid access model. The company said it has already signed up customers ahead of the August 1 launch, but did not identify them.
Truth API is the latest example of the president mixing his personal business with presidential affairs, raising ethical issues, Warren of Massachusetts and Schiff from California said. Trump reported last month, for example, that he received more than $1.4 billion last year from his family’s crypto projects.
While tech platforms are generally allowed to offer clients early data access, even if it disadvantages some market participants, according to lawyers, some ethics experts have said the Truth API product is different because Trump’s posts are government information and he has an obligation to disseminate it publicly.
Warren and Schiff also noted Trump has in the past used Truth Social to endorse specific stocks including Citigroup

, which they said raises the risk of insider trading and of undermining investor confidence that the market is operating on a level playing field.
In the statement, the TMTG spokesperson said: “The Senators must have invented a new theory of ‘insider trading’ based on publicly available information.”
