X will pay ‘about $10 million’ to settle lawsuit over Donald Trump’s Twitter suspension


X has become the latest social media platform to reach a settlement with Donald Trump in a years-long legal battle over his 2021 social media suspenions.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Elon Musk-owned company has agreed to pay “about $10 million” to settle the long-running case. Trump sued Twitter, along with Meta and YouTube, more than three years ago after the companies booted him off their platforms following the riots on January 6, 2021. The Wall Street Journal reports that the president's lawyers “are also expected to pursue a settlement with Google.” X didn’t respond to a request for comment.
