Rumble Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis

Rumble (NASDAQ:RUM) and Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) have filed a lawsuit against Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes for violating First Amendment protections by ordering the suspension of U.S.-based accounts. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, seeks to declare these orders unenforceable in the United States.

The case centers around a political dissident who fled Brazil in 2021 and whose extradition request was rejected by the U.S. in March 2024. Despite this rejection, Moraes continued pursuing censorship orders targeting the dissident's content on American platforms. In December 2023, Rumble temporarily disabled access in Brazil rather than comply with content removal demands.

The lawsuit argues that foreign courts cannot unilaterally dictate speech on American platforms without U.S. government authorization. TMTG joined the lawsuit as it relies on Rumble's services for TRUTH Social's operations, including cloud hosting and video streaming.
