Trump Plans Return with His Own Social Platform
Former US President Donald Trump is reportedly working on his own social-media platform after being banned from nearly all networks following the January Capitol attack. A former campaign adviser, Jason Miller, told Fox News that Trump intends to return to social media in about two to three months with his own platform, which Miller says could become the hottest ticket in social media and redefine the space. Miller indicated Trump has met with various experts at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida to plan the launch. The piece notes that Twitter has permanently banned Trump and raises questions about whether the new platform will materialize within the stated window, noting Trump’s history of disputed statements. The article presents these claims as reported by Miller and does not confirm a concrete launch date.

Court Blocks X Rival From Using Twitter Name, Allows 'Tweet'
A Delaware federal court ruled in a trademark dispute between Elon Musk's X and startup Operation Bluebird, granting X a preliminary injunction on the 'Twitter' name but denying it for 'tweet' and the Twitter bird logo, citing likely abandonment. Musk's own tweets about removing birds and the logo influenced the decision. Operation Bluebird, which rebranded to Tweet.app, cannot use 'Twitter.now' but may continue using 'tweet'. The startup, founded by lawyers, aims to acquire abandoned Twitter trademarks, charging $20 to reserve handles with over 172,000 requests. The case is ongoing, with a final verdict expected in November 2027, highlighting the impact of public statements on trademark protection and the legal battles over the Twitter brand.
