The claim that Richard Grenell "was the first out gay person to hold a cabinet-level position in US history" is false. In actual fact the first openly gay person to hold a cabinet-level position in US history was Demetrios Marantis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_first_openly_LGBTQ_politicians_in_the_United_States#Executive:~:text=In%202013%20Demetrios%20Marantis%20became%20the%20first%20openly%20LGBT%20person%20to%20serve%20in%20a%20cabinet%2Dlevel%20position%20in%20the%20Cabinet%20of%20the%20United%20States

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1870841792095990074
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
