President Trump has signed settlement papers that are anticipated to require Meta to pay approximately $25M to resolve a 2021 lawsuit Trump brought against the company after it suspended his accounts following the attacks on the U.S. Capitol that year, Annie Linksey and Rebecca Ballhaus of The Wall Street Journal reports, citing people familiar with the agreement. $22M will go toward a fund for Trump’s presidential library while the rest will go to legal fees and other plaintiffs who signed onto the case. Meta, however, won’t admit wrongdoing, the journal’s sources said.
