This can be located at `https://twitter.com/<identity>/status/<proof>`. This can be located at `https://twitter.com/<identity>/status/<proof>`.
Caveat: fetching `https://twitter.com/<identity>/status/<proof>` and looking for the `<npub>` is not sufficient as a validation, because Twitter can automatically redirect if you use the wrong identity (but the correct tweet ID) as part of the URL! So after fetching `https://twitter.com/saylor/status/1701877505437675910` one must re-check the *actual* URL (or avoid redirects in the first place) before concluding that the person using `1701877505437675910` as a proof matches the @saylor identity on Twitter!
