President-elect Joe Biden announced a new Twitter account for Douglas Emhoff. In his Jan. 14, 2021 post, he suggested readers also follow @FLOTUSBiden and @SecondGentleman.
Biden’s POTUS and Vice-President-Elect Kamala Harris’s VPOTUS accounts will be live at 12:01 p.m. January 20th — during the United States’ 59th Presidential Inauguration.
As President-elect Biden is sworn in on January 20, 2021, Twitter will facilitate the transfer of institutional White House Twitter accounts, including @WhiteHouse, @POTUS, @VP, @FLOTUS, and @PressSec.
Donald Trump’s POTUS Twitter account will be transferred to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) moments the new administration accounts become active. His presidential tweets will become a permanent record of his interactions with the American people and will be available @POTUS45.
#Inauguration21 will be live-streamed through multiple news agencies as well as @BidenInagural, and Twitter’s US Elections Hub. @JCCIC, The Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies will also stream the inaugural feed.
During the ceremony, the US Elections Hub is expected to post “curated Moments, Lists and accounts-to-follow recommendations from trusted and official sources.”
