LIFESTYLE NEWS - Among them are Jason Kessler who helped organise a far-right march in Charlottesville, and white supremacist Richard Spencer.
English Defence League founder Tommy Robinson also had his badge removed.
Twitter said the badge was being interpreted as an "endorsement or an indicator of importance" and said it would change the scheme.
The blue badge was first introduced to indicate the authenticity of prominent profiles on the social network.
Originally the site had chosen who to verify, and usually reserved the status for celebrities, public officials and journalists.
In July 2016, it opened the scheme up to the wider public and let anybody apply for a verified badge.
Last week, the social network was criticised for giving Mr Kessler a verified badge, and on 9 November halted its verified profile scheme.
