One of Elon Musks' first ventures after he became the CEO of Twitter. It's the first of many schemes to fuel his goal of monetizing Twitter and squeezing every last penny from it. It's a monthly (purported $8) subscription you pay to get premium Twitter features, which now includes being able to get the Blue Verified checkmark.
I would bet many people are getting Twitter Blue simply for the checkmark now, which completely nullifies its original purpose as a way of ensuring a well-known or honorable person's authenticity.
Basically, Twitter Blue is the equivalent to Discord Nitro, and the Verified checkmark would be demoted to the same function as having a Nitro badge, which means nothing other than the fact you bought their subscription.

Thomas was a broke but renowned copyright-free music producer. After the events of Twitter Blue, he was furious to see his verified checkmark, something that took him ages to get, suddenly disappear. Thomas had never seen such bullshit before.

A sub-section of Twitter were accounts solely tweet about Football. It is full of fatuous, pseudo intellectual, pubescent virgins who claim to be football experts. Accounts spend there days playing FIFA ultimate team, watching Youtube compilations and arguing over who is the best player in the Premier League. Everyone here steals tweets, aims to be controversial, and call people frauds when they have a bad game. These kids are fixated with retweets and would kill there own mother for a few likes. Users have cringy @'s, never go to games, and are obsessed with spreading propaganda about there favourite players. Most on Football Twitter live in third world countries and watch games on 140p streams that lag. These kids are socially inept and have never felt a female.
