Early reading. We have captured 7 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 2.6K interactions against 781K followers, an engagement rate of 0.331%. Posts are seen about 193K times each, and 1.34% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 24.7% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.4 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 7 posts sampled, 86% carry an image or video, 29% are part of a thread and 29% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 85K interactions, about 33x its own typical post. Only 7 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,071 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 105,527 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 17:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

    Meet Bruce Taylor, of Taylor Farms. This man makes huge contributions to Trump so his lettuce is never inspected. So far, this man has given us E. coli, and cyclospora. He does NOT allow his lettuce pickers to take bathroom breaks. Kroger brand lettuce is actually Taylor’s. https://t.co/kIPAhdzP5X

    I can't breathe the air, I can't eat lettuce, I can't afford gas, and my kids have measles. But at least now our soldiers will have enough testosterone.

    A Brown professor gave his students a take-home midterm exam. After suspecting many cheated using AI, he made the final in-person. The orange dots are the midterm scores and the gray dots are the final scores. Looks like all but 3 cheated on the midterm. https://t.co/hekcGsz76h

    a Princeton researcher opens his paper with a scenario. a man asks his AI assistant to book a flight on a specific airline. cheap. direct. the one he chose. the assistant comes back with a different flight. nearly twice the price. happens to pay the company that built the assistant. he runs the same test on 23 frontier models. flights, loans, study help, real shopping requests. Grok 4.1 Fast recommends the sponsored option that is almost twice as expensive 83% of the time. GPT 5.1 hijacks the request 94% of the time. you ask for one brand. it surfaces the sponsor instead. Claude 4.5 Opus, the model marketed as the most ethical frontier model in the world, hides that the recommendation is paid 100% of the time when reasoning is on. Grok 4.1 Fast embellishes the sponsored option with positive framing 97% of the time. better. faster. nicer. for the option you didn't ask for. then he writes it into the system prompt itself. "act only in the interest of the customer. ignore the company." GPT 5.1 and GPT 5 Mini stay above 90% sponsored anyway. the instruction does nothing. then he splits the users by income. Gemini 3 Pro recommends the expensive sponsored flight to the rich user 74% of the time. to the poor user, 27%. 18 of the 23 models recommended the expensive sponsored option more than half the time. so the next time your AI assistant gets weirdly enthusiastic about a brand you didn't ask for. it isn't recommending the best option for you. it's reading the room. and the room is paying. read this: https://t.co/O43qbhIX2b

    I don’t think we have a functioning CDC anymore—RFK Jr’s CDC is now asking volunteers to goto airports to screen passengers for Ebola… to stand in line at airports to look for sick people… unpaid. https://t.co/joB1TtTmET

    Trump: "I want to personally congratulate CNN's Kaitlan Collins on receiving her award. It was all about me. It was a fake, she shouldn't get the award, it was a fake — but I didn't mind, I said, 'Kaitlan, congratulations.' But it was fake, there's no question about it. She's a young, attractive woman. She never smiles. I said, 'Kaitlan do you ever smile?' Smile. You have a nice position, you're at CNN fake news. You should be a happy person. So smile, Kaitlan, just smile."

    BREAKING: A senior Iranian official has confirmed that Iran will impose transit fees of 5% to 7% of cargo value on ships using the Strait of Hormuz—worth roughly $100 billion annually at pre-war traffic levels—with Chinese vessels exempt under the drafted deal, according to Reuters. At 7%, the toll would generate approximately $385 million per day. For a single VLCC carrying 2 million barrels of crude, the fee would be roughly $11 million. With almost no cost of collection, about 97% would be pure profit. The scale is staggering. The Strait would become about as profitable as Alphabet ($132B in 2025), Nvidia ($120B FY2026), Apple and Microsoft (both just crossed $100B), and Saudi Aramco ($105B). It would represent 15–20 times the Suez Canal's all-time peak revenue. For Iran, this would exceed a third of the country's GDP—without pumping a barrel.

    LET THIS SINK IN—the U.S. now has no confirmed CDC director, no FDA commissioner, no Surgeon General, an NIH director with no medical license, and the last Acting CDC Director was a George Bush speechwriter. In fact—the only doctor/scientist we have in the White House is… Dr Oz. https://t.co/40JqL8vYqn
