Twitter Will Hand Over @POTUS Account To Joe Biden On Inauguration Day
Bruce Haring pmc-editorial-managerTwitter said it is “actively preparing to support the transition of White House institutional Twitter accounts on January 20th, 2021,” Twitter spokesperson Nick Pacilio said in an email statement.The service will also transfer other government accounts such as @VP, @FLOTUS, and @whitehouse to the presumptive Joe Biden administration. That’s if, of course, the Donald Trump administration fails to overturn the recent election.The process is being done in consultation with the National Archives, as it was in 2017, Pacilio said.The move comes even as Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was lambasted last month by Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz over its partisanship.
