Donald Trump has reached a $25 million settlement with Meta, owner of Facebook and Instagram, regarding the suspension of his accounts following the Capitol riots in January 2021. The settlement allocates about $22 million to Trump's presidential library, with the remainder covering legal fees and other plaintiffs. Meta, which reinstated Trump's accounts in July 2024, denied any wrongdoing. Amidst this, the relationship between Trump and Meta has notably shifted, as Zuckerberg's visits to Trump and donations to his inauguration signal potential reconciliation.
Meta will not admit wrongdoing in the settlement regarding Trump’s suspended accounts, highlighting the complexities of social media regulations and user rights.
This settlement, funded largely for Trump’s presidential library, emphasizes the evolving relationship between Trump and Meta amid political tensions.
