Elon Musk actually did it. Twitter stripped stripped verified users of their blue checks on Thursday (April 20).
The only people left with blue checks, barring any mixups typical of Musk's Twitter, are those who paid for a Twitter Blue subscription. In other words, a blue check now means that you are willing to pony up $8 per month to Musk.
Celebrities, journalists, and politicians are all left without verification. And not just some writer with 3,000 followers (cough, me) — we're talking Halle Berry, Beyoncé, and the freaking Pope.
The response to the blue-check wipeout, however, was hilarious. Musk unintentionally created a great day on Twitter as folks responded to the petty decision. Here are 13 of the best responses tweeted in the aftermath.

1.Halle Berry had a great response to losing her blue check (before she actually lost it).
