Third paragraph from the article:<p>A UAW official told The Intercept that the union’s account, which they paid for, was verified until Friday morning, when suddenly it wasn’t. The most recent entry for the UAW Twitter account in the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, from September 9, confirms that the union was blue check verified. A request for comment from Twitter earned the auto-reply, “Busy now, please check back later.”
They lost their verification checkmark because they changed their profile picture - I can't believe this is the abysmal level of competence in news reporting and UAW official. Utter embarrassment!
