PoliticsGirl engagement report
@IAmPoliticsGirl - 674K followers on X
Measured over 32 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 2, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.0K interactions against 674K followers, an engagement rate of 0.153%. Measured over 32 original posts, its engagement rate beats 75% of 6,874 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 23K times each, and 4.47% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.41% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 23:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 32 posts sampled, 81% carry an image or video and 34% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 50K interactions, about 48x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #notinmyname, #notwithmytaxes.

Compared with accounts its own size
PoliticsGirl's engagement rate beats 75% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (6,874 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 89% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.
Where this sits in the catalog
At 0.153%, PoliticsGirl sits above the 50th percentile of the 66,536 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.1% to 0.5%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 23:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 81% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 34% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | no effect | -2% to -1% | 42K |
- 81% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 34% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 279 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

An ICE agent scanned the wrong license plate, chased the wrong man, and ended up shooting Julio Sosa-Celis through his own front door. DHS’s first story: Sosa-Celis attacked agents with a broom and snow shovel. City surveillance video proved that was false — the whole struggle lasted about 12 seconds. DHS admitted its agents gave “untruthful” sworn testimony. Charges against Sosa-Celis were dropped with prejudice. The agent, Christian Castro, is now charged with 4 counts of assault + falsely reporting a crime. He fled to Texas. Greg Abbott is refusing to extradite him. Minnesota’s AG just sued Abbott to force it. A Republican governor is actively shielding a federal agent from facing trial for shooting an innocent man and lying about it under oath. Texas, you have a job to do in November. And then justice can finally be delivered.

BREAKING: We just won a temporary restraining order in our elections case. That means the Postal Service can't force a new rule giving it the power to deny your ballot, just one week before ballots go out. The court said the rule would cause "irreparable harm," was "practically impossible" to comply with, and likely unconstitutional. It would have caused chaos in our election. We stopped it for now, and we'll keep defending free and fair elections.

- PoliticsGirl (@IAmPoliticsGirl) has an engagement rate of 0.153%, based on the median interactions across 32 original posts from the last 30 days against 674,352 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.153%, PoliticsGirl sits above the 50th percentile of the 66,536 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.

It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @IAmPoliticsGirl post?
- Most posts go out around 23:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.23 posts per day across the measured window.
