(CLO) Elon Musk once proudly declared his social network X to be "the most exciting place on the internet." Following that sentiment, X CEO Linda Yaccarino emphasized that "if anything happens in the world , it will show up on X." And with President Trump's return to power: Indeed, everything is happening on X.
Recently, the platform's slogan "everything happens on X" has become the focus of controversy. But for anyone wanting to know what's going on with President Trump's return to power, it's true – it all happens on X.

The Trump administration's lightning-fast attack strategy perfectly aligns with X. Trump appointees are announcing new policies; agencies are pushing for changes; and aides are connecting these new policies to Trump's campaign promises through viral posts.
This approach is being implemented from the highest leadership level, specifically Elon Musk. Musk, in his role as a highly empowered individual, is directly leading and executing the transformation of the Ministry of Government Efficiency.
Elon Musk constantly posts articles on X, sometimes up to a hundred a day, most of which focus on his campaign against what he considers cumbersome and inefficient bureaucracy.
Elon Musk's DOGE initiative focuses on publishing daily updates regarding government agencies terminating multi-million dollar contracts and removing gender-identifying content from government websites.
However, many critics have called for greater transparency regarding DOGE's operations. They argue that Musk's supporters seem to selectively publicize only the canceled contracts they want, leading to a lack of objectivity and complete information. This raises doubts about the transparency and true motives of the DOGE initiative.
Those appointed by Trump to key positions all follow Musk and DOGE. To use a Hollywood analogy, one could say President Trump has chosen the "leading actors" from his inner circle and tasked them with attracting public attention.
U.S. Homeland Security officials also use the platform to publish images of immigration raids. Meanwhile, State Department officials regularly post short videos documenting Secretary of State Marco Rubio's travels, demonstrating an effort to reach young people and the public through modern content formats.
Furthermore, transportation officials also used social media to announce important information, such as confirming the change in the name of the "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America".
On the Truth Social platform, Mr. Trump often posts screenshots of posts supporting him, which originate from X. These screenshots of Mr. Trump typically receive more interaction (likes and retweets) on X than on Truth Social.
Vice President JD Vance, also an active X user, recently caused a stir when he questioned the authority of the judiciary to challenge President Trump's power.
