Appearing on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” this afternoon, Secretary of State John Kerry talked about his return to Twitter after an almost year absence.
“My staff is extremely nervous, but that’s alright,” Kerry said.
Kerry temporarily signed off from his @JohnKerry handle upon becoming Secretary of State last April.
Thx for the tweets and for following. W/ my new job, I tweet from @StateDept, signed –JK. Follow for latest!

He must have done something to regain his privileges earlier this month, creating #JKTweetsAgain.
It only took a year but @StateDept finally let me have my own @Twitter account. #JKTweetsAgain

“You do need to do a little work on your selfies,” Mitchell told Kerry this afternoon, referencing a selfie Kerry took with children in Jakarta.
“That was a great selfie,” Kerry said, adding he’s enjoyed being back on Twitter.
