Hi Jarimjim welcome to stackoverflow.

For Authentication below code will help you because you're using tweepy

import tweepy

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)

api = tweepy.API(auth)

//Example to test authentication.
public_tweets = api.home_timeline()
for tweet in public_tweets:
    print(tweet.text)

Now if you want to get all retweets by other you can do try this.

API.retweets_of_me([since_id][, max_id][, count][, page])

Returns the 20 most recent tweets of the authenticated user that have been retweeted by others.

Parameters:

• since_id – Returns only statuses with an ID greater than (that is, more recent than) the specified ID.
• max_id – Returns only statuses with an ID less than (that is, older than) or equal to the specified ID.
• count – The number of results to try and retrieve per page.
• page – Specifies the page of results to retrieve. Note: there are pagination limits.

Return type:
list of Status objects

All these things are extracted from http://docs.tweepy.org/en/latest/
