Former President Donald J. Trump has returned to X (formerly Twitter) with a string of posts made just after noon on Monday. The 2024 Republican presidential nominee had largely been absent from the social platform since the then-sitting President’s account was suspended on January 8, 2021, by the company’s former ownership under Jack Dorsey.
Since his suspension over three years ago, the former Republican President founded his own social media company, Truth Social, which went public earlier this year—earning Trump billions. Over the past two years, an exclusivity agreement with Truth Social had largely kept Trump from other social media platforms. However, it is believed that the deal has since expired.
Trump’s first post on X—since he posted his Georgia mugshot on August 24, 2023—came just after 11:00 AM in the form of a 2-minute video regarding the Biden-Harris Department of Justice’s (DOJ) lawfare campaign against him. However, some speculated that the video may have just been a mis-posted ad, as the Trump campaign began running paid political ads on the former President’s account late Sunday night.
However, just after noon, the social media account saw a series of messages starting with the former President posting: “Are you better off now than you were when I was president?”
“Our economy is shattered. Our border has been erased. We’re a nation in decline,” Trump continued before adding: “Make the American Dream AFFORDABLE again. Make America SAFE again. Make America GREAT Again!”

EU PANICS.
The European Commission, the executive branch of the European Union, is now threatening tech billionaire and X owner Elon Musk, demanding he censor his August 12 evening interview with former President Donald J. Trump. European Commissioner Thierry Breton posted a letter on X, demanding Musk adhere to the E.U.’s Digital Services Act (DSA), specifically about spreading any disinformation, hatred, or incitement to violence.
Thierry’s letter also mentions recent unrest, referring to the anti-mass migration protests and riots in the U.K. over the last two weeks. Musk has been vocal about his criticism of the U.K. government’s handling of the situation, specifically the accusations that British police engage in two-tier policing practices, with allegations they have allowed Muslim mobs to run riot while cracking down hard on white British protestors.

According to E.U. Commissioner Breton, the bloc is ready to “make full use of our toolbox, including by adopting interim measures,” against Musk and X if the E.U. feels the Trump interview violates E.U. regulations.
Social media users immediately labeled the letter a sign of foreign election interference in the U.S.’s 2024 presidential race, while Musk replied, “Bonjour!” In another post, Musk appears to brush off the threats, likening Breton to a French character from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Commentary:
We can’t be having open discussions and the free exchange of ideas! That’s dangerous!
This is censorship pure and simple. This is no difference from what any dictatorship would do.
The problem with this type of law is that the government gets to define what each word means (and that meaning can be stretched to cover any speech the government dislikes.)
I would suggest that perhaps the EU should start with cleaning up all the "disinformation, hatred, or incitement to violence" coming from the Neo-Marxist Left their Islamic racist and anti-semetic conspirators. Then, in a few years if the rest is "cleaned up", ask DJT if he'd consider the use of more benign euphemisms to describe Marxist Socialism.
The People know that the Quisling "Legacy Media" is so focused on running interference for the DNC and rebranding cackling Kamala Harris and Tim Walz that they cannot even recognize the brilliance of this pivot to X by Trump.
- Musk’s platform isn’t working overtime to ignore, misrepresent, or drown out Trump’s message.
- Much to their chagrin, Trump’s X interview has blown a hole through the media propaganda wall.
- Trump reached past them to voters that they had no idea existed.”
