Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts have been restored by the social media giant.

This is according to new reports from online sources.

Facebook’s independent oversight board imposed a ban on Trump’s account following a series of posts by the former president in the lead up to the January 6 attacks on the Capitol building.

Users are seemingly able to view Trump’s profile and posts on both Instagram and Facebook, however Facebook is yet to confirm the ban being lifted.

Former President Donald Trump’s blog, a webpage where he shared statements after larger social media companies banned him from their platforms has been permanently shut down, his spokesman said Wednesday.

The page “From the Desk of Donald J. Trump” has been scrubbed from Trump’s website after going live less than a month earlier.

It “will not be returning,” his senior aide Jason Miller told CNBC.

“It was just auxiliary to the broader efforts we have and are working on,” Miller said via email.

However, Andy Stone, communications at Facebook, tweeted that the status of Trump’s Facebook access remains unchanged.

No. Nothing about the status of President Trump's presence on our platform has changed. He remains indefinitely suspended.
— Andy Stone (@andymstone) June 2, 2021

At the time of the suspension, Mark Zuckerberg said “the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great.”

The page states that he is a “political candidate,” but last Facebook status was January 6, “I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order – respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!”

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
