Former President Donald Trump’s blog has been permanently shut down, according to reports — and those in his inner circle say that the move is a precursor to something even bigger than just a webpage.
Facebook and other social media networks banned the former president from their respective platforms following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, insisting that he was guilty of inciting the violence and spreading election disinformation.
At the time of the ban, the former president reached tens of millions of followers on Twitter, and millions on Facebook alone.
What are the details?
The former president’s page on DonaldTrump.com — called “From the Desk of Donald Trump” — launched in May and was designed to communicate with his supporters.
The page now, however, permits users to only submit contact information for updates from Trump’s communications team.
In a statement, Trump senior adviser Jason Miller told Blaze Media, that the move was “just auxiliary to the broader efforts we have and are working on.”
