Is this possible via the API? Is there already a website that does this?
Add "filter:verified" to the search query should work.

Just a thought...
I'd imagine that you can make a call to any user account and have it return all its followers, right? If this is true, then all you need to do is check against Twitter's Verified account found here: https://twitter.com/verified.
DataSift allows you to do this. It's Twitter's official partner for advanced searches.
If you are interested in using DataSift for this, here is an example live stream of Tweets from all verified Twitter users - http://datasift.com/stream/22288/tweets-from-verified-users

Question, I haven't worked with API's too much but I'm building an app and I was curious to know if this idea would be possible. Would it be possible for a user to sign up on my site and pull that user's tweet's as a way to display the tweet on my website? Thanks in Advance.
So I am creating a small telegram-twitter bot for friends and me. So far everything works, I get the tweets and forward them to the telegram chat. All cool. But then I figured that it would be cool to display if Twitter deemed the Tweet to be incorrect or harmful. Does anybody know how retrieve or access this information without scraping the webpage?
I checked the API and even the labs api, but couldn't find anything.
Cheers
There is nothing in the Twitter API that provides this information.
is there a way to get the impressions of tweets generated through the api? or the most retweeted tweet that an app/api generated?
According to this answer by a Twitter developer here, there doesn't seem to be a way to programmatically access the data from http://analytics.twitter.com.
I'm having trouble pulling tweets onto my site. I just want to put my latest tweets on there so don't think I need a token but am not sure.
No, you don't need OAuth - check out Twitter's documentation for putting a widget on your site.
No, you can just fetch it by querying the twitter API. For example to fetch all tweets from Twitter support, visit http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=support
For more details, see the documentation
You can also pull the data in via RSS. Click the "RSS" link from your browser to get the URL, it's your numeric twitter id which is not posted elsewhere.
For statuses/mentions, I need to authenticate as a user. I want to see the user's mentions without asking him/her to authenticate. If the tweets are public, what are the mentions not public ?
I'm writing to do this
Check the Twitter search API
https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/tweets/search/api-reference/get-search-tweets.html
To find all user mentions: just use #username as search term.
I would like to add that Twitter's Search API returns only tweets from past 7 days. So if you want to retrieve ALL tweets mentioning an arbitrary user, you can't.If anyone finds a way to do this, please mention.
There is no way to get a user's mentions using the statuses/mentions endpoint because this is possible using the search api.
