In other news about the former US president, Briefly News reported that Trump is working with an unpopular social media app called FreeSpace to launch his social media network, Axios reports.

This follows a ban of the former president by Twitter on January 8, two days after the riot and violent attacks on the United States Congress at the US Capitol, severing his access to his nearly 90 million followers.

Facebook followed the next day, cutting former President Trump's ties with another 33 million followers. After the ban, some initially thought Trump might reappear on Parler, a far-right haven that the Trump Organization had previously held talks with, as an anonymous "Person X", but those efforts fell through.

Since then, Trump's advisors have repeatedly hinted that the former president might launch his network to connect with his followers.
