Here's an example using desmondmorris/node-twitter and rxjs 5.

const Observable = require('rxjs').Observable;

Observable
  .of(new require('twitter')({
    consumer_key: 'xxxx',
    consumer_secret: 'xxxx',
    access_token_key: 'xxxx',
    access_token_secret: 'xxxx',
  })).mergeMap(twitter =>
    Observable
    .fromEvent(twitter.stream('statuses/filter', {
        track: 'Stack Overflow'
      }),
      'data'))
  .filter(tweet => tweet.user.follow_count > 10000)
  .subscribe(console.log);
