What an absurd claim. This is not a tax on Americans. The EU creates laws to protect its citizens, in this case from fraud and deception. X operates in the EU market and must therefore follow its laws, including by reducing fraud and deception. X hasn’t done that. And so it’s being fined.

Musk retweet of Brendan Carr, who writes, “Once again, Europe is fining a successful U.S. tech company for being a successful U.S. tech company. Europe is taxing Americans to subsidize a continent held back by Europe’s own suffocating regulations.” Carr’s tweet includes a screenshot of the anxious headline “Elon Musk’s X hit with $140M fine from European Commission.”
