title: streaming api with tweepy only returns second last tweet and NOT the immediately last tweet
body: <p>I am new to not only python, but programming altogether so I'd appreciate your help very much!</p>
  
  <p>I am trying to filter detect all tweets from the twitter streaming API using Tweepy.</p>
  
  <p>I have filtered by user id and have confirmed that tweets are being collected in real-time.</p>
  
  <p><strong>HOWEVER</strong>, it seems that only the <strong>second last</strong> tweet is being collected in real-time as opposed to the very latest tweet. </p>
  
  <p>Can you guys help?</p>
