Musk has been bringing his son to numerous events at the Capitol and elswhere around Washington for weeks now -- often carrying him on his shoulders. He was with Musk and the Trump family at Mar-a-Lago on election night.

On Thursday, \"Lil X,\" along with Musk's twins with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis -- Strider and Azure -- were front and center at the tech mogul's meeting with India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Blair House, across the street from the White House.

Had a very good meeting with @elonmusk in Washington DC. We discussed various issues, including those he is passionate about such as space, mobility, technology and innovation. I talked about India’s efforts towards reform and furthering ‘Minimum Government, Maximum Governance.’ pic.twitter.com/7xNEqnxERZ
