Truth Social is an American social media platform owned by Trump Media & Technology Group. It launched in February 2022 after Donald Trump was banned from major social networks following the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
The platform presents itself as a free-speech alternative to mainstream social networks and has primarily served a conservative and pro-Trump audience. Trump shared footage of a fatal tiger attack on the platform in 2026, prompting the victim’s family to ask people to stop circulating the video.
