Matt Walsh engagement report
@MattWalshBlog - 4.1M followers on X
Measured over 67 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on October 24, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 9.4K interactions against 4.1M followers, an engagement rate of 0.229%. Measured over 67 original posts, its engagement rate beats 83% 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 692K times each, and 1.35% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 17.0% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 6.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 67 posts sampled, 31% carry an image or video, 9% are part of a thread and 25% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 412K interactions, about 44x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Matt Walsh's engagement rate beats 83% 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 56% 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.

At 0.229%, Matt Walsh sits above the 50th percentile of the 204,491 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.677%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Thursday 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 | 31% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 25% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 31% 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.
- 25% 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 376 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.

We’ve never seen anything like this before. A man was conscripted into jury duty by the government. He performed his civic duty and followed his conscience, refusing to acquit a woman who confessed to systematically executing her three children. The defense attorney immediately launched a public smear campaign against the juror. Soon several other jurors joined the campaign. Then the media. Even the defense attorney’s wife has joined. Now they’re doxxing the man, digging into his past, contacting his family, showing up at his house. All of this both to punish him for refusing to go with their program, and to pollute any future jury pool by making it clear that anyone who votes to convict Clancy will have their life destroyed. It’s truly one of the most outrageously evil things we’ve ever seen from the Left, and that’s saying something. A direct assault on the integrity of our justice system. They are burning down every boundary and standard in their path. And doing it all for the sake of a child murdering psychopath. Unfathomable.

The other jurors have spent all week calling the lone male holdout an arrogant, uncooperative dummy who didn’t understand the law or follow the rules. Now we come to find out that they were talking about the only black guy in the room this whole time. Leftists have accidentally sided with 11 white bullies against a black man who stood up to them. Just an absolutely amazing twist. You couldn’t script it any better.

The defense just confirmed in open court that the hold out juror is a man. It's one sane man against two simps and nine girlbosses. Hold the line, sir.

These juror interviews are extraordinary. They are admitting openly that they disregarded the law entirely for the sake of letting Clancy off the hook. There’s no other way to read it. One juror says she originally wanted to vote guilty but changed her mind so that “Lindsay could get the help she needs.” That is a clear violation of the law. They were supposed to make a determination solely about guilt or innocence. They were not there to make sure anyone “gets help.” Another juror says she voted not guilty because the prosecution never produced “character witnesses” proving Clancy was a “bad mother.” The problem is that A) killing your children IS definitive evidence that you’re a bad mother, and B) the prosecution would not have been allowed to call those kinds of witnesses. A witness solely testifying that Clancy was a bad mother would have been purely prejudicial. So this juror acquitted because the prosecution failed to provide evidence that they weren’t allowed to provide and which would have been irrelevant anyway. Extraordinary. This same juror even admitted that it was a “fact” that Clancy “viciously killed her children.” The word vicious literally means “done maliciously and with intent.” So if that’s a fact then they were obligated to vote guilty. But they didn’t. Meanwhile another juror swooned over the defense attorney’s “entertaining” demeanor. And another one said that all of the facts of the case — “everything,” her words — “proved” that Clancy “loved her children.” Apparently strangling your children to death, in this juror’s mind, does not at all call your love for them into question. Just a collection of the most morally obtuse idiots ever assembled. Amazing.

The defense attorney showed up to the court today with a bundle of fan mail for Lindsay Clancy. Fan mail for a woman who strangled all of her children to death. My faith in humanity has never been lower.

Lindsay Clancy had a "psychotic break." Which is why she planned the murder, researched her plan on Google, sent her husband away from the house, and then methodically executed her children over the course of several minutes. I never knew that you could plan your psychotic break like that. Just pencil it into your calendar. I'm learning so much about "mental health" from the morally bankrupt imbeciles on this site and TikTok. Thank you for this education.

Last year, a man named Andrew Nikhil Aiyar made a series of extremely violent and disturbing threats against my wife and children. He threatened to find my wife and hack her to death with a meat cleaver. He said that he would beat my children to death in front of me. These are some of his less graphic fantasies. He went on making deranged and gruesome threats, fixating especially on my wife, for a period of many weeks. And he did more than make threats. I won’t go into all of those details. He harassed and stalked other figures in conservative media in various ways. I’ll let those people talk about those experiences if they wish. At his sentencing, my wife was able to give a very strong and compelling victim impact statement where she implored the judge to punish this scumbag (my term, not hers) for his crimes. I’m proud of her for not doing the weak “I forgive you” routine, letting a degenerate predator off the hook in the name of misplaced pity. Aiyar was not remorseful. While hiding behind his “mental health” struggles, he refused to take accountability and even called my wife a liar during the hearing. At not point, even at sentencing, did this narcissistic freak apologize to my wife or express any regret at all. I am thrilled that his sob story was disregarded and he will now spend the next several years in federal prison. Obviously I would have liked for him to go to prison even longer, but four years is a lengthy sentence for these kinds of cases. In my experience at least, threats generally aren’t taken all that seriously by the courts and prison sentences are rarely given out. I’m grateful to Judge Merryday for doing the right thing, and giving this criminal almost as much prison time as he could under the law. The judge mentioned during sentencing that he assumes I would have much rather had those threats made against me than against my wife and children. He could not have been more correct about that. I signed up to be a "public figure." No one in my family signed up for it. They don't deserve this. If anyone threatens them in any way, we will not rest until the culprit is in jail. The anonymity of the internet won't protect you. And when the time comes for your sentencing, we'll be there to urge the judge to punish you as severely as the law allows. I hope Mr. Aiyar enjoys his time in prison. And when he gets out, if he says a single word about or to my wife or kids ever again for as long as he lives, we'll be happy to ensure that he goes right back in his cage.

Call me a conspiracy theorist. The Christa Pike case was getting massive amounts of national attention. Anti death penalty activists rallied around it. And then magically Pike survives multiple doses of "lethal injection." Now she's in a hospital getting medical treatment (something her victim, who she tortured to death, never received). There's very good reason to suspect that it was botched on purpose.
