Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram Are Back in Business

WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

Twitter recently reinstated the former president’s account as well, although he’s yet to post on any of the platforms.

Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts have been restored. Meta announced it would restore the former president’s accounts last month, two years after he was suspended for inciting further violence in the middle of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. The media company said it’d be adding “new guardrails” to deter Trump from making “repeat offenses.” Meta said if he violates content rules again, he will be suspended for “between one month to two years,” depending on the offense. The move comes three months after Trump regained access to his Twitter account—although he’s stayed put on his own Truth Social for the time being.
