The government sent out a message with an embedded link to Twitter. It sounds to me like the government can choose whatever link it likes and that in this case they unaccountably chose twitter. I doubt the assertion that even a simple majority of people are "trained to go to Twitter" for urgent alerts, or that even if true, this would justify the government using them as the default platform to link to in their own government created alert messages.
