A typical post picks up 7.0K interactions against 1.2M followers, an engagement rate of 0.563%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 93% of 20,444 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 334K times each, and 2.09% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 26.9% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.57 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 25% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 62K interactions, about 33x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Rep. Ilhan Omar's engagement rate beats 93% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 68% 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 0.563%, Rep. Ilhan Omar sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,048 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.678%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 205,048 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,894 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 20:00 UTC, and Wednesday 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.

  • 25% 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.
  • 0% 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 472 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

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.

    9 months ago, ICE agent Jonathan Ross murdered Renée Good in broad daylight and called her a "fucking bitch" as he walked away. Renée's family and our community have yet to see justice for this senseless murder. It's unacceptable. We must prosecute and abolish ICE.

    🚨 BREAKING: The family of Renee Good and her partner, Rebecca Good, have filed two federal lawsuits over Good’s January killing by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis. The first lawsuit is against the United States itself, alleging wrongful death and other claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act. The complaint alleges Ross fired three times as Good’s vehicle turned away from him, killing the 37-year-old mother of three, and argues the shooting violated the Fourth Amendment and DHS use-of-force policies. The second, much broader lawsuit personally names Ross, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, Tom Homan, Todd Lyons, Gregory Bovino, and other federal agents. It accuses them of participating in an unlawful conspiracy surrounding “Operation Metro Surge” and brings claims under the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, Bivens, and Minnesota law. The 149-page complaint alleges Good’s killing was not an isolated incident, but the “predictable and intended product” of a coordinated federal operation that plaintiffs say targeted Minnesota’s Somali and Hispanic communities and sought to intimidate people documenting or warning others about federal enforcement activity. Together, the lawsuits seek damages over Good’s death and the injuries Rebecca Good says she suffered after witnessing the shooting.

    This week I voted NO on a bill to block universities who boycott Israel from receiving federal funding. No university or student should be punished for refusing to support a foreign nation and a genocide.

    The House will vote on an amendment that would block funding to Israel. It should be a no brainer: Our tax dollars should not fund a genocide. We cannot continue to be complicit in Israel’s crimes against humanity.

    ICE is out of control. This week, a five year-old child watched ICE shoot his father. Trump's rogue agency has shot more than 43 people in two years, murdering eight. There is no reforming this abhorrent agency. Abolish ICE.

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 7.0K interactions against 1.2M followers, an engagement rate of 0.563%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 93% of 20,444 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 334K times each, and 2.09% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 26.9% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.57 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 37% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 25% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 62K interactions, about 33x its own typical post.

Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.563%, Rep. Ilhan Omar sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,048 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.
