Twitter says it will not archive tweets from Trump's suspended account

Tweets from the permanently suspended account of former President Trump will not be preserved on the platform, Twitter confirmed in a statement to CBS News. But the social media company said it is working with the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to keep an official account of the statements the former president made on Twitter.

"Given that we have permanently suspended @realDonaldTrump, the content from the account will not appear on Twitter as it did previously or as archived administration accounts do currently, regardless of how NARA decides to display the data it has preserved," a Twitter spokesperson said. In a statement to CBS News, NARA said it intends to provide public access to all of the captured and preserved social media content from Mr. Trump, including blocked and deleted tweets. NARA said "ultimately the platform owners can decline to host these accounts" and added that it is working to make the content available for the public.
