Engagement
A typical post picks up 75 interactions against 123K followers, an engagement rate of 0.061%. Measured over 19 original posts, its engagement rate beats 43% of 15,519 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 7.2K times each, and 1.04% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.84% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 19 posts sampled, 16% carry an image or video, 11% are part of a thread and 68% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.0K interactions, about 26x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Robert P. George's engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 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 41% 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 14:00 UTC, and Friday 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 | 16% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 68% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 16% 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.
- 68% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 290 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.

When I was a boy I heard Dolly Parton perform with Porter Wagoner in a matinee live performance at a theater in Fairmont, West Virginia. She was The Porter Wagoner Show's new "girl singer," and hadn't yet launched her solo career. She was pure country. I mean pure country. None of us had an inkling that she would become a megastar, but every boy in that theater fell in love with her that day. None of us had ever seen or heard anything quite like her. I doubt that we will ever see or hear anything like her again. May she, as she herself would have said, "rest in the arms of Jesus."

The death of Dovie Eisner takes from many of us a dearly beloved friend. Although a congenital illness confined him to a wheelchair and bound him to a breathing apparatus, Dovie led an active life--socially, intellectually, and spiritually. Politically, too: He wrote powerful essays against euthanasia and assisted suicide. Dovie loved thinking and talking about big questions. In our many exchanges, whether in person or in writing, he always had interesting things to say--and questions to ask--about the great issues of politics, philosophy, and religion. Although he never sat in my classroom, he honored me by referring to himself as my student. I will miss him, as will many, many others. My deepest condolences to his parents, his brother Moshe, and his sisters.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk one year ago today was first and most importantly a tragedy for his family. It was a tragedy more broadly, too. Ever since, people on the Right, especially young people, have filled social media with the following: “Look, we tried engaging those on the Left in public debates, making arguments, listening to their perspectives, responding. That’s what Charlie Kirk went around college campuses doing, and they killed him for it. We need to fight fire with fire, using the same tactics that the woke progressives use against us.” That is a recipe for disaster. There are always going to be people at both ends of the political spectrum who think that reasons, arguments, and evidence aren’t enough and that we must silence those who disagree with us. Some of them might even resort to violence. When people try to silence you, don’t respond in kind by trying to silence them. People of goodwill, intellectually and morally serious people of every shade of belief, have in common a desire to know the truth and to live by the truth. But ideologues, dogmatists, and fanatics undermine the enterprise of truth seeking by neglecting the central and universal truth of human fallibility. Don't give up on discussion and debate--on trying to learn from people even when disagreeing with them.

Some people seem to think that killing one's children should, in effect, be "safe, legal, and rare." Not a "good thing," mind you, but not something the law can ban (by actually punishing people who do it). "It's very rare," perhaps they suppose--like late-term abortions. It happens, perhaps they suppose, only when people are not really responsible for their actions--so what's the point of punishing someone who does it?

Ordinary authoritarians are content to forbid people to say things they believe to be true. Totalitarians want to force people to say things they believe to be false.

"Prosecutors said Corie Walsh was in a group text talking about the Lindsay Clancy murder case just hours before killing her son." It is now being reported that Walsh killed her two-year-old by hanging him. She says she thought he was the devil. https://t.co/BXfU90B6Po

As social media commentary confirms every day, the delinquencies and iniquities of the other political party blind many people these days to the delinquencies and iniquities of their own party. Fear and loathing of the other party make people apologists for the sins of their own.

- What is Robert P. George's engagement rate on X?
- Robert P. George (@McCormickProf) has an engagement rate of 0.061%, based on the median interactions across 19 original posts from the last 30 days against 123,347 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.061%, Robert P. George sits above the 25th percentile of the 156,839 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.
- Does @McCormickProf have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 43% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,519 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @McCormickProf post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.23 posts per day across the measured window.
