Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Graduate 56,501 PointsI couldn't get the twitter and kickstarter links to work either, at first.
I looked at the documentation at the Supported Embed Options [https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds] but all I found was: "Twitter - older versions of WordPress have issues with https embeds, just remove the s from the https to fix."
I tried this on the Twitter one but it didn't seem to work in itself.
However, after this the Kickstarter started one seemed to work on its own.
I then tried different Twitter links which also seemed to work fine.
In conclusion then, there doesn't seem much other than WordPress getting "temperamental" after putting in the link to Zac's tweet. Solution: Just try another, more recent, tweet link to see if that works.
