Here’s what #dctech had to say about Inauguration Day 2021 on Twitter

President Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris were sworn into office today. The pair took over at the White House two weeks after the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol that shook the nation and created doubt about the country’s future.

Twitter has been a hotspot for folks to share their emotions about recent political events, especially after Donald Trump was permanently suspended from the platform himself.

As the Inauguration Day took place, #dctech took to Twitter to share thoughts.

For one, I was clearly focused on wardrobe:

Jill and Michelle did not come to play today, outfits 10/10, this is actually a fashion show.

While others were focused on other important matters at hand:

Today, I brought Dr. Nesbitt as my guest to Inauguration in honor of our health care workers and all the sacrifices they and our residents have made.

So much LOVE for all who made it possible.💓🌈

That even as we hurt, we hoped
That even as we tired, we tried
That we’ll forever be tied together, victorious
Not because we will never again know defeat
but because we will never again sow division

D.C. statehood was top of mind for some:
