Just a day after sharing her views on the contentious matter, Ms Ocasio-Cortez shared another post claiming that her Twitter mentions\/notifications stopped working following her exchange with Mr Musk. \u201cAlso my Twitter mentions\/notifications conveniently aren’t working tonight, so I was informed via text that I seem to have gotten under a certain billionaire’s skin,\u201d the politician wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust a reminder that money will never buy your way out of insecurity, folks,\u201d Ms Ocasio-Cortez added.<\/p>\n

While many have expressed their disapproval over charging $8 for the verified badge, Mr Musk has maintained that the fee is reasonable. He recently shared a meme on Twitter poking fun at those who are unwilling to shell out a fee for their blue tick.<\/p>\n
