Twitter’s iOS app has been updated to support Elon Musk’s new $7.99 per month Twitter Blue subscription. Apple’s App Store Twitter app description page touts Blue as the new way to get verified on the platform “just like the celebrities, companies, and politicians you already follow.”
In his latest tweet on Monday, Musk addressed “independent-minded voters” ahead of the November 8th U.S. midterm elections, writing, “I recommend voting for a Republican Congress.”
To independent-minded voters:
Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 7, 2022
