In a rare break from her private persona, President Trump's chief 'enforcer' Susie Wiles has officially joined X, ditching her behind-the-scenes status to deliver updates in real time.
'I'm joining X to share occasional updates about the work we do at the White House. We are relentlessly focusing on advancing President Trump's agenda and delivering on promises to the American people,' her first and only post reads. 'I welcome different viewpoints. Follow along for insights and information.'
The President's chief of staff has become an overnight digital sensation, racking up a staggering 300,000 followers in just a matter of days.
'New must follow: White House Chief of Staff @SusieWiles47,' the White House's Rapid Response account wrote when she first created the account.
Her new X account only follows six handles: The Wall Street Journal, CNN, Fox News, ABC News, The New York Times and CBS News.
The move follows a White House announcement that Wiles will convene senior officials from the Department of Homeland Security and Secret Service this week to review security protocols in the wake of the attempted shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
The group will examine best practices for large-scale events involving the President and his Cabinet.
'President Trump has said he personally thinks they did an excellent job neutralizing the shooter and moving the President, First Lady, Vice President and Cabinet to safety,' a senior White House official told the Daily Mail.

The White House chief of staff will convene Trump administration officials, members of the Secret Service and staff from the Department of Homeland Security
Secret Service agents reacted quickly to the breach on Saturday and were able to apprehend the suspect within feet of the outer security perimeter. However, some officials still say the security was too lax
Journalists immediately huddled on the floor as Secret Service agents rushed into the room
'Nevertheless, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles is convening a meeting early this week with the White House operations team, USSS, and DHS leadership to discuss protocol and practices for major events involving POTUS.'
As the dust settles on Saturday night's shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, tensions are reportedly brewing between Wiles and the President's own sons.
With Secret Service Director Sean Curran squarely in the crosshairs of a new security scandal, sources say Wiles is preparing to lay blame directly at the feet of Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump if heads roll.
According to Real Clear Politics, Wiles has been telling administration officials that Curran's performance is 'on the boys,' referring to the President's sons, who reportedly lobbied hard for his appointment.
'It's failure after failure after failure, and she gets no blame,' one frustrated source complained.
Curran, who took the helm of the Secret Service last year, has faced scrutiny since day one - his appointment coming just months after the near-assassination of Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Since those twin attempts on Trump's life during the 2024 campaign, a string of security lapses has dogged the agency: protesters getting within feet of the President at a DC restaurant, breaches at his Florida estate, and now the press gala.
Senior Republicans at the dinner were also furious.
'It's an open hotel. You could walk in without going through a magnetometer,' said Congressman Michael McCaul, who attended. 'The Secret Service needs to reconsider having both the president and vice president together at something like that. Had an explosive device gone off, you would have knocked out the president, the vice president and the speaker, the three in the line of succession.'

Trump famously bestowed the 'ice-maiden' nickname on Wiles during his 2024 victory speech - a nod to the steely, hard-nosed attitude that has made her the most feared and respected operator in the MAGA universe.
Wiles is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer. The 68-year-old 'tough cookie' has vowed to remain at her post, maintaining her grip on the West Wing even as she battles for her health and the President's safety
The concern is not merely theoretical. Most of the presidential line of succession was present in the Hilton ballroom, with at least a dozen of the 16-member Cabinet in attendance - raising the spectre of a so-called decapitation strike of the kind that killed most of Iran's top military leadership in a US-Israeli operation.
