Analysis / Bias

The website does not publish news; however, X Strategies LLC demonstrates a strong conservative bias, as evident from its mission statement: “Since day one, we have made it our mission to help advance the ideals that make this country great with an agenda and platform that puts our nation first. We only promote, advocate for, and help elect conservative fighters.”

Alex Bruesewitz, the CEO, is a prominent MAGA political consultant and supports Donald Trump. He is active in social media conflicts with figures opposing Trump or Trump-aligned policies. Bruesewitz has been involved in controversies related to the January 6th Committee and has made false claims, as seen below in failed fact checks.

According to The Advocate X Strategies, under Bruesewitz’s leadership, he has been involved in far-right activities, including the promotion of the “groomer” slur against LGBTQ+ people.

Finally, Bruesewitz’s support for Donald Trump and the MAGA movement is well-documented. He has been involved in political campaigns and supported figures prominent in the MAGA movement. The involvement of X Strategies in right-wing activities, including supporting anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and movements, indicates strong connections to the Trump and MAGA ideologies​​​​​​​​​​​. In general, the group promotes far-right and anti-LGBTQ+ propaganda and conspiracy theories.
