Summary
Former President Donald Trump posted on Facebook for the first time since the Capitol riot in January 2021. His account was reinstated in January, and he was expected to return to Facebook and Twitter after both companies lifted their suspensions of his profiles. Trump's 2024 Republican presidential campaign had formally petitioned Meta to restore his Facebook account. However, until Friday afternoon, Trump had stuck to his own platform, Truth Social. Trump's new Facebook post came hours after YouTube said it would lift its own restrictions on Trump's account, allowing it to post new videos.
