As of 12:00 pm on Wednesday, January 20, Joseph R. Biden Jr. has been sworn in as President of the United States of America. Dr. Jill Biden has assumed the role of First Lady of the United States, filling the spot left by Melania Trump from the previous administration.

Federal Twitter accounts will now change hands. @POTUS is now Joe Biden's office. @FLOTUS, respectively, will be Dr. Biden's.


Melania took to the @FLOTUS45 account to encourage potential future followers to find her personal Twitter:

Hate crimes, White nationalism and conspiracy theories have boomed.





Melania Trump was conspicuously absent from her husband's administration.

Her farewell speech came about on the heels of her outright refusal to speak to Dr. Jill Biden, despite having been invited into the White House by outgoing former First Lady Michelle Obama in 2016 and 2017.





The opportunity for a new era is ahead—one built on a new, diverse administration with a focus on bringing the country back from the brink of crisis created by petty squabbles with allies, courting dictators, allying with White supremacists, denying science, inciting rioters to storm the United States Capitol and over 30,500 lies.

Be best!

Trump Ripped For Hypocrisy After Claiming He 'Doesn't Know' Who Crypto Founder He Just Pardoned Is

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed during a sit-down interview with 60 Minutes correspondent Norah O'Donnell that he doesn't know who Binance cryptocurrency exchange founder Changpeng Zhao is despite pardoning him less than two weeks ago.

California Governor Gavin Newsom had social media users cackling after he, in a series of photos on X, mocked Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. with photoshopped meme versions of Spirit Halloween costumes.

Noem, who has led the nationwide immigration crackdown that continues to tear apart families around the country, is the "Border Barbie" of one meme that pokes fun at her for shooting her dog, her penchant for bringing camera crews wherever she goes, and the way South Park writers lampooned her in one of its most widely-seen episodes this year.
