Meta has agreed to pay $25 million to settle a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump after the company suspended his accounts following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. This settlement is part of a trend where large corporations resolve litigation with the president, who has a history of taking action against his critics and rivals.
The terms of the agreement include $22 million going to a nonprofit that will become Trump's future presidential library, with the remaining balance allocated for legal fees and other litigants. The Wall Street Journal was the first to report on this settlement.
