Truth Social now available in Samsung Galaxy Store
Digital World seeks to delay merger with Trump’s Truth Social for one year
FOX Business senior correspondent Charlie Gasparino joins ‘The Claman Countdown’ with details on the pending transaction.
EXCLUSIVE: Samsung has added former President Trump’s Truth Social to its Galaxy app store, with Trump Media and Technology Group CEO Devin Nunes stressing that the social media platform is the only one preventing Big Tech from "extinguishing free speech" in the United States.
Truth Social became available to Samsung users in the Galaxy Store Tuesday.
"Samsung has been great — they’re very easy to work with, and they don’t care about politics," TMTG CEO Devin Nunes told FOX Business Tuesday. "They just want to conduct their business, get it done, and move on."
TMTG began the submission process to enter the Samsung Galaxy Store in late September. It took less than two weeks from the initial submission date to the date the platform became available to users.

Google told FOX Business that they are having productive and ongoing conversations with TMTG regarding Truth Social's addition to Google Play Store.

"Unfortunately, the impetus to suppress dissenting points of view is growing seemingly everywhere — in the media, Big Tech, academia, and other crucial sectors — so the importance of free-speech platforms will continue to grow as well."
