On January 3, the official White House X (formerly Twitter) account dropped a savage edit of Nicolás Maduro — freshly arrested in a controversial U.S. military raid — alongside a clip of Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The kicker? The whole thing was edited to “Hypnotize” by The Notorious B.I.G., complete with a bald eagle emoji and the line, “If you don’t know, now you know.”

Within minutes, the video racked up tens of millions of views — and so did the theories.
“It has to be Barron Trump running this account,” one user posted.
“At first, I thought it was a parody,” wrote another. “But nope… that’s the actual White House.”
This isn’t the first time Trump’s youngest son has been suspected of operating official accounts.
Back in December, users also claimed Barron was running the White House’s TikTok page after it posted a chaotic Christmas Eve-Eve clip of Donald and Melania — complete with cartoon filters and Gen Z slang.
“Barron is absolutely behind this TikTok,” someone wrote. “It’s too unserious to be anyone else.”
It’s not just the Maduro video. Since President Trump returned to the Oval Office in 2025, the tone of official posts has gotten… weird.
- The DOJ’s X account called a reporter a “dope” during the Epstein file fallout.
- Anti-immigration memes and far-right slogans have popped up on government pages.
- And according to insiders, the White House seized control of multiple agency accounts to “streamline messaging.”
Translation: Trumpworld is fully online — and no one’s quite sure who’s holding the phone.
So… Is Barron Trump Actually Running White House Socials?
While there’s no official confirmation, the internet seems convinced. Whether it’s a meme mastermind behind the scenes or just a very online intern, one thing’s clear: Washington has never tweeted like this before.
And honestly? It does feel like Barron might’ve found his calling.
So what!
Boys will be boys .
Hakeem Jeffries is going to impeach Donald Trump in January 2027 and now he has the grounds to do it! He was going to use the fact that Trump wipes his butt with Cottonelle instead of Charmin, but this is MUCH better!
