Lee Zeldin engagement report
@LeeMZeldin - 904K followers on X
Measured over 23 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 21, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 1.4K interactions against 904K followers, an engagement rate of 0.152%. Measured over 23 original posts, its engagement rate beats 76% of 1,003 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 26K times each, and 5.28% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.89% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 23 posts sampled, 70% carry an image or video and 22% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 75K interactions, about 54x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Lee Zeldin's engagement rate beats 76% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (1,003 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 5 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 91% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 20:00 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 | 70% of posts | +79% | +73% to +85% | 5.8K |
| Outbound link | 22% of posts | -49% | -50% to -47% | 6.1K |
| Typical length | - | +13% | +10% to +15% | 6.4K |
- 70% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 79% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 22% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 49% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 331 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 13% 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.

Tomorrow, the House will vote on the NDAA, which includes a provision to merge parts of our military with the IDF. This amendment is an existential threat to American sovereignty and democracy. Every member of Congress must vote NO.

Requiring photo ID in all 50 states, and proof of U.S. citizenship, is such a no-brainer that should have been implemented a very long time ago!

Yesterday, I had a detailed call with Canada’s Ambassador to the U.S., @MarkDWiseman. I stressed to him, on behalf of millions of concerned Americans, just how extremely important and urgent it is to put out all the fires harming U.S. air quality. Going forward, it will be so vital to maximize proactive forest management, early fire detection, and resource staging and instant mobilization. These cross-border air events simply cannot keep happening every year. For the most up to date and timely information, visit EPA’s air monitoring website at: https://t.co/fFo9hJ6Z5Q

Busy day at the White House! Today’s press briefing will take place at 11AM ET. At 2:30PM, President Trump will travel to @EPA for an event on his “Ratepayer Protection Pledge” — a key initiative to ensure AI companies are picking up the electricity tab in local communities where they are building AI data centers. And then the President will host the LA Dodgers at 4:30PM in the Rose Garden!

1 PERSON 1 VOTE is a fundamental constitutional principle and right reserved for U.S. citizens ONLY. There must be ZERO tolerance for even a single U.S. citizen’s vote to be diluted AT ALL by others illegally in our country.

The Trump EPA answered the call from millions of Americans and ENDED the absurd Climate Participation Trophy, created by the Obama Admin, to reward manufacturers for installing the almost universally despised START/STOP feature in vehicles that causes it to die at all red lights and stop signs. Discussed with @TudorDixon how the Trump EPA wants manufacturers to build the vehicles consumers prefer to buy rather than the vehicles that DC bureaucrats and politicians demand.
