I think as far as validity goes, I think the intent of nsagov was to not have it be verifiable. Why else post and then delete. I will take it as encouragement and not worry if it's real. My job is to keep working and anything that helps me keep my energy up is a good thing, real or not.
Thanks for posting, it helped me at the very least.
Yes, the quoted tweet is an image because the original was deleted and the tweeter attached the screen cap.
And yes, the resolution is different because when the image is uploaded to twitter it is compressed to fit the width available for display which is smaller than an original tweet width.
I downloaded the available image of the NSAgov from the tweet and checked pixel integrity and looked for anomalies in the artifacts. It doesn't appear to be to be constructed of multiple parts and the font is accurate and has not been hastily duplicated.

Hoping the original person who screen capped the NSAgov tweet is found. But as you can see there is push back on validity.

FAAAAAKE. You can tell that the "quoted tweet" is actually just an image because it is blurrier than the surrounding content.

Yep, they didn't bother to keep the resolution the same on the edits and colors are off.
