Former President Donald Trump unveiled a new digital-media venture Wednesday and said it would go public by merging with a special-purpose acquisition company.

Trump Media & Technology Group will create a social network called Truth Social to fight such companies as Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc., the Trump company said in a press release late Wednesday. Mr. Trump’s access to several social-media platforms was restricted following the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol.
