The Lawsuit between the social platform X and President Donald Trump has been settled for a price tag of $10 million.

X will pay after Trump sued the company, now owned by Trump ally Elon Musk, when his account was suspended in 2021, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The company was then known as Twitter when it removed Trump after the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The company said at the time that Trump’s posts were inflammatory and believed they could sow more violence.

As a result, Trump sued, saying he was being censored.

Trumps account was reinstated in 2022 — around the time Musk bought the company and renamed it X

Musk became a close adviser to Trump and currently is the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a new entity created by Trump to ferret out government waste.

The details of the agreement were not made public. However, both entities notified the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals Friday of the agreement.

According to a court filing. both parties will pay their own costs.

X was not the only platform to suspend Trump’s accounts. Facebook and Google, the parent company of YouTube, suspended Trump’s accounts after the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

Trump’s X, then Twitter, account was suspended after he praised his supporters after losing the 2020 presidential election and called them “patriots.”

The account was suspended “due to the risk of further incitement of violence.”
