Meta says it will restore Donald Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts within weeks. He had been banned from the platforms after the January 6 insurrection.

Facebook-parent Meta said on Wednesday that it will restore former President Donald Trump’s accounts on Facebook and Instagram in the coming weeks, just over two years after suspending him in the wake of the January 6 Capitol attack. “Our determination is that the risk [to public safety] has sufficiently receded,” Meta President of Global Affairs Nick Clegg said in a blog post. “As such, we will be reinstating Mr. Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts in the coming weeks.

The decision, which comes on the heels of a similar move by Twitter, could also further shift the landscape for how a long list of smaller online platforms handle Trump’s accounts. It was not immediately clear whether Trump will seize the opportunity to return to the Meta platforms.

murdaugh vs. trump. who is worse? they are equally the same. you will see

Banner for a fake insurrection. You clowns

At best it was an ATTEMPTED Insurection. But rationally thinking, THAT WAS THE WEAKEST, LEAST ORGANIZED ATTEMPT EVER TO TAKE OVER A GOVERNMENT. Led by the most evil president ever? Carried out by the voters who own 80% of the guns? People who believe that are CLOWNS!

Pres. Trump should have never been banned!

Everytime I see trump on here talking I'm muting that page I don't care who you are I'm not listening to that guy one more day If I see him on tv I'm switching channels I'm so done

Yes and deserves restitution.

Uh mike should be charged with a crime. He was only the vp.

J0rd0n Tr!sht0n Wlk3r

The f..k?

When will Meta ban the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran? He has a blue tick as a famous person, and he is to blame for everything bad that is currently happening in Iran. Both Meta and you mass media have lost all credibility in the last few years 👎🏻

Had to stop by and check on all the sheeple✌

He's going to get back on and start talking his lies again He's a criminal

Laptop?

The word insurrection is a lie so this post is a lie

🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡

NO NO NO ITS BEEN SO NICE NOT TO HEAR FROM HIM.💯💯💯 BAN HIM FOR LIFE.💯💯💯

No weapons No 'insurrection'.

He can't post until he breaks his contract with Truth Social.

i hope he doesnt come back to any of them! just hate from the left

All the more reason I’m glad I deleted Facebook

TwitterSupport Twitter world wants end to Putin’s war. That Ibiza Guy I tweeted about it; SUSPENDED. Meanwhile Trump gets 6+ Americans killed, and gets back on Twitter. FREE SPEECH or WHITE PRIVILEGE elonmusk?

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

He should never been taken off.

Time to drop it

Wrong

who cares....

Firstly. Fake news. There was no insurrection.

…and the plot thickens. Its like watching a soap opera. Both parties and the media are playing us all. How can we believe anything anymore?

Hypocrites... should have never been banned

Wow, I can't believe 45 would return 😢 that means his media company is not doing well 😕 DonaldJTrumpJr POTUS45

This loser should still be banned.

Cancel Zuckerberg!!

Just block him

and when he begins his practice of spreading divisive misinformation (lies) will they ban him again?

LaMonicaBuzz Murder, treason, cheating, racism, sexual predation, and inexhaustible greed, all rewarded by Facebook. MAGA

Honestly this will probably push me out. Enjoy this cesspool. I was almost there anyway. When a platform disgusts you everyday, it’s time to walk. I hate being reminded first thing every morning what a mess this country has become.

Easy.. Meta made 100's of millions from the Trump Campaign years ago. Meta wants to make more money in 2024 election....

Republicans are scum and meta is scum

Gonna be wild for the 6 sentient people left on FB

There was an insurrection

Criminal Trump S trying 2 take presidency via 2nd COUP D'ETAT. Republicans& billionaire class R certainly on this path/police must B defunded/they R too equipt/have too many black sites w/system capable 2 stop ordinary Amer. from protesting D presidency's takeover by Trump.

We must declare NATIONAL HUNGER STRIKE 2 stop D Blding X Cop City. We'll do HUNGER STRIKE N front X White House/Mayor Dickens & Gov. Kemp office. Cop City will B used as torture/killing/deseaperance X ordinary Amers/Nuke testing/Wuhan lab Bio-weapon engineering! RIP TORTUGUITA!

send him to jail

He doesn't need them anymore.

You would think they would wait until the DOJ report. Just not logical

Lol Am remember George Carlin. Sit back and watch the circus play out. One of the most dangerous thing in this once great country is the media. The media will be the down fall of the country.

Do we think it's real smart to let him back on to this platform. To many weak-minded people to follow his bullshit.

Who cares?

Who gives a fuck

NOTE: ONLY in 'WHITE AMERICA' - a modern-day Hitler (Trump) who incited murder and COMMITTED Treason against the USA and he's STILL FREE; a RACIST white government GOP in DC who support him, a WEAK-AS-HELL Dept of Justice who refuse to bring him to justice! Wow - laughable!

Notice that cities with uncontrolled black crime and gun violence are all run by black police leaders. Too many white blacks in power.

Why isn’t this guy in jail yet

Lock to trader up.

They are going broke. Hope Trump does what he has on twatter.

Depressing news!

No ban for Maxine and Nancy calling for BLM riots which caused way more racist death and destruction?

Why 🤔😉, Didn’t he cause enough problems? There are dead people because of him and he has not yet been held accountable this will not help matters.

Good move. The leftists (CNN being the biggest proponent of propaganda) is beginning to realize Trump was targeted. Meanwhile, Biden has classified docs at his home. 6 different tranches in total. Where his crackhead son was paying 50k/mos rent, whilst dealing with the Chinese.

When he is on. I am out ! 🤬

Really bad mistake! A traitor shouldn’t be allowed to incite violence

Riot

Covfefe is back!

Wrong decision. He should be ostracized for life.

Good thing I canceled Facebook accounts!

PLEASE DONALD TRUMP MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN !!!! realDonaldTrump

Trump finna make it poppin again W

Since 2016 I never switched on Trump

CCN SHOULD BE THANKING ZUCKERBERG

Just in time for 2024 - The machine wants chaos lmao

what about this ?

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Outrageous. All he does is spew hate and division. This will just pour more gasoline on an extremist fire. Whoever made this decision is a national security risk.

zuck is suck

Here comes social media to kiss the ring...

Bunch of whiny people on here. Just block him and move on with your life. Or can't you resist helping keep him relevant after a 4 year temper tantrum of wanting to make him irrelevant?

Lololol

Gonna be a big Block Party Event😎

😅😅😅The Don and all his glory is back. Lol theirs going to be a lot of humans with their drawers in a knot. Love it let the show begin.

SCOTUS says it will restore womens stolen rights.... oh wait. Trump getting Facebook back is far more important, apparently.

I'm so excited to tell you about HZMCoin🚀🤑 is Traded on seven platforms📣Powered by SimplexCC📣I got the official CertiK kyc badge📣I got the blue tick as a trusted currency in CoinMarketCap has four strong projects hzmcoin is growing fast put your eyes on it malarab1

Fuck NO!!!

META supports Insurrection

Classified documents CD It seems that none of the CD of WH are in the NationalArchive NA ,since FBI found many in trump’s house in FL , Biden’s office in DC , & house in DE,Pence’s house in IN , so who needs NA anymore . FBI should search the houses of ex presidents and Vices😀

Honestly … who cares… people need to decide for themselves if they want to entertain his nonsense or not

BoycottFacebook 🚩🆘

Should have never been banned in the first place.

Good. This should be interesting

Did he ever get charged with anything? Russian collusion? Rioting? Unsecured classified documents?

He will just continue to be a whiny bith, lying about an election held 26 months ago.

One big reason to slow my use of Meta even more.

They all lost billions when he was banned the WAPO laying off staff = CNN MSNBC a ratings wreck - let him post - he will ruin himself which is better than DOJ getting involved

So, can I also support treason and not get banned?

If they restore insurrectionists everyone should be restored. One of the worse crimes is insurrection against America.

He doesn't need them

It has been announced I will delete Facebook if he returns 🖕🙁🖕

Thank goodness for realDonaldTrump returning on Facebook and Instagram!

Welp, time wipes away all crimes, apparently..

shame on them

That's not helpful.

Right down the shitter

No one wants to see anymore of his LIES-nor his racist face. 🙄

And with any luck Trump will be on Facebook from jail!

No problem Trump house wite rifa

That means he didn't do anything wrong. Lol. Or else he'd be banned for life.

Too late.

We should all move out of FB, Instagram and Twitter

Yawn...more bullshit woe is me they're persecuting me comin soon to a social media platform near ya

If his followers don’t come back, that should be telling, except we are dealing with a narcissist - so there’s that

i love seeing lib”s triggered.

Social media just gets worse and worse.

As if facebook wasn't already enough of a smoking garbage pile it's going 'Full Mobro' 🚛 trump

✌️

What insurrection? You mean the vandals that were invited onto the grounds and into the Capitol by the Capitol Police?

No no no the fools he lies through his teeth keep him out of our lifes

A huge Victory foe free speech

Great news

And his return will coincide with my leaving those platforms. This is not a coincidence.

Won't let Twitter out shine them! Great job 😒

Good... crooked government democrats set up President Trump, or they thought they had..lmbo FBI HAD UNDERCOVER AGENTS STAGE A FAKE INSURRECTION.. EVERY ONE KNOWS

Boo

Wrong decision

Meta/Facebook needs that Trump traffic

Maybe we need to consider pulling up the stakes and moving on because this country is going to be a real shit show

F Meta

That Qanon crap better not start up again.

LOL, now everyone can watch the meltdowns real time since no one was on whatever his fake social media platform was 😂 TrumpIsALoser

moha_souz MohaAmyn beste comeback from division 2

Here we go again 🙄. Nothing but lies comes out of Trump's mouth. He'll get all of those conspiracy theorists riled up.

Can't wait to tell him to GF himself

You will all be sorry.

NO WE DONT WANT THE ORANGE CHEETO BACK

Meta are Trump supporters.

I'm sure he learned his lesson. Well done, folks!

He said he would t come back to fb or twitter because his TRUTH SOCIAL is more amazing and bigger than both of these…. Surprise… more lies 🙊🤷‍♀️

Shut up lol

Doubt he will use it. He hates being told what to do. Thank you FB for the guardrails

Hate is good for business

About time!!

Just in time to spread more of his campaign lies for 2024

Here we go again...

Cambridge Analytica on line 2

He will have far more followers than CNN on his first day back.

Don’t do it! Don’t do it! You’re in for a lot of trouble…

Right, just like a phoney account has stated that Trump would be back on Twitter. Are you being weaponized by Federal agents CNN?

META - nevermind all the people who died from Trump misinformation. That's what i call real leadership. So glad I canceled my FB account. META, FB whatever you want to call it is garbage and without ethics.

What a great idea! Give Trump all the help he needs to get the GOP nomination in 2024 so he can get his ass handed to him again in the election. Brilliant!

That’s a fucking mistake.

But, but January 6th was the most horrific event in human history!!!

OMG!!!! Now I’ll have to tweet even more!

Boo

So what.

Go woke go broke 😂🤡

WTF is Meta?!

Personne ne fera ce qui est contraire à Dieu. Le canard ne veut pas de Pocahontas…. Comme son frère, rien ne lui sera accordé..

Do you think Donald Trump would have let CNN lock up Rosa Park for sitting in front of the bus

This will be fun.

Popcorn 🍿

Just a sess pool anyway! Hackers and crooks! He’ll fit in perfect!

Oh hell no Meta

'the risk [to public safety] has sufficiently receded'? With him running for office again? Just admit y'all just wanna give his fake bs as wide a platform as possible once again, just in time. Jfc. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I bet it's going to cost them some accounts .

Yippy. Evil clowns united

It would not surprise me if this is a corporate decision that has nothing to do about moral values at all, despite what a criminal he is. Meta wants more money in the form of more visitors to their platforms.

The unfortunate part here is that Trump moved on and is neither interested in Twitter nor Facebook or Meta whatever u might prefer to call it. Him going back to either means doom for Truth Social. U have to remember he cares more abt his money..

Democrats censored and lied to the American people

Someone's grasping for advertising dollars to do something so against the well being of the other subscribers. That Pandora's Box of haters will return to assult all who's posts they disagree with despite not being their target audience. We've been warned!

Good, and if I was him I’d just post all the media clips that have since been debunked and proven false just to see if it gets censored as fake news! Would be funny as hell

NO!!!

Nooooo why ?

👇🏽😐

Can I preemptively block and unfollow?

Let the name of Trump be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of The United States of America. Let the name of Trump be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men and women for all time.

Ihhh estão querendo mais…. 🤦🏻‍♀️

But why would he use another social media platform when he’s got Truth Social?

Why?

Thanks to mtaibbi who reveal the Twitter files to show the hypocrisy of Dem and FBI (that time) against Trump.

Great! Another platform to praise her m.

'You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in' They knew LindseyGrahamSC knew marcorubio knew tedcruz knew RandPaul knew NikkiHaley knew KellyannePolls knew mikepompeo knew GovernorPerry knew SenatorCollins knew They all knew.

Why? he is abdolutely as dispicable and corrupt (or more) than he was then

Poor Devin Nunes. Looks like Ol trumpie screwed another one of his most faithful toadies..

Meta is a disaster, what a sham.

Lol, these psychos removed Trump from all platforms in support of Biden but now they’ve seen how crazy America have become because of Biden and now they are all restoring Trump’s account 🤣🤣🤣. Many couples divorced because of Biden too hahaha can’t stop laughing 😂 😂🤣🤣🤣

Easy to block as turning the TV off.

Who still use Facebook? 🤔

There was no “insurrection.” Please stop stating it as if it were a fact.

Time for round 2! Facebook destabilizing the world, one country at a time.

Truth social flopping then

Let the circus begin again. 🙄

Will he now do something on social media?

Worst possible decision. Worst possible time. Worst possible person. Meta is going to hoist themselves on Trump’s petard and then whine about what happened.
