French authorities have launched a criminal investigation into X, formerly Twitter, demanding full access to its content-ranking algorithms and user post data. The platform, owned by Elon Musk, refuses compliance, calling the probe a politically motivated assault on free speech. X claims it remains unaware of specific allegations but asserts French law is being weaponized for ideological purposes.

The standoff highlights growing European scrutiny of Musk's tech empire. Meanwhile, unrelated speculation swirls around Musk's recent WHITE House appearance with a visible facial bruise—attributed by the billionaire to a playful incident with his young son.
