The US is seeking to join the legal action brought by Elon Musk to reverse the €120 million fine imposed by the European Union on social media platform X for violating online rules. The Donald Trump administration has applied to the EU General Court to support X's efforts to drop this landmark case. The fine was imposed by the European Commission in December of last year, and since then it has become a flashpoint in increasingly tense transatlantic relations. The ruling accuses X of violating transparency requirements and deceiving users through the design of its verification plan. Representatives of X, the European Union, and lower courts of the European Union did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
