Elon Musk Fined $350,000 for Ignoring Special Counsel Probing Trump

Elon Musk's Twitter was fined $350,000 for failing to comply with a search warrant obtained by special counsel Jack Smith's team, which was seeking records related to former President Donald Trump's Twitter account. The court rejected Twitter's claim that it should not have been held in contempt or sanctioned. The search warrant aimed to obtain information such as the timing and location of Trump's posts, engagement metrics, and the identities of accounts that reposted his content. The investigation is part of a broader case against Trump, who has been charged with conspiring to subvert the will of voters and cling to power after losing the 2020 election.
