Truth Social is TMTG’s alternative to Twitter, where Trump has been permanently suspended. It will offer Twitter-like features, including trending topics and the ability to follow other users, according to The Guardian.

TMTG also plans to launch a subscription service offering entertainment, news and podcast videos on demand called TMTG+ and, as indicated by an investor meeting in November, a podcast network.

The new social media platform comes nearly a year after Trump was banned from major social media platforms for allegedly encouraging his supporters to raid the U.S. Capitol, where they tried to prevent Congress from certify election results in 2020.

TMTG merged with Digital World Acquisition Corp in October for a reported value of $ 875 million, The Guardian reported.

In December, the media venture also received a $ 1 billion pledge from anonymous investors and signed a deal with video platform Rumble.
