Spike Cohen engagement report
@RealSpikeCohen - 247K followers on X
Measured over 12 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 26, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 571 interactions against 247K followers, an engagement rate of 0.23%. Measured over 12 original posts, its engagement rate beats 74% of 20,444 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 29K times each, and 2.00% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 11.5% 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 70% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 12 posts sampled, 83% carry an image or video and 17% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 22x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Spike Cohen's engagement rate beats 74% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 63% 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 0.23%, Spike Cohen sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,582 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.143% to 0.679%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 01:00 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 | 83% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 0% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 83% 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 440 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.

Almost everyone is against Flock cameras and the AI surveillance state, right now. But if we don't abolish them soon, in a few years most people won't care about them anymore. A generation later, they'll think we'd have total chaos without them. The time to end them is now.

This guy got arrested at a Christmas parade in Florida for wearing a body armor vest concealed under his shirt… The problem is, that wasn’t illegal. I saw this in the news, with cops taking a victory lap and Karens rejoicing about it, so I put in a request for the footage… And it’s worse than I even thought it would be… Full video 👇🏼(originally posted February 10, 2026)

Amanda Prince was caught driving on a suspended license, and so she was arrested. She was about to be processed at a local jail. It wasn’t that big of a deal - just a traffic violation. But she had no idea that the cop arresting her was corrupt, and he just planted a bag of cocaine on her. He throws the bag of drugs on the hood of his police car… and she is in utter disbelief, as she realizes that she’s being framed by a police officer. Amanda was jailed and charged with a serious felony that would send her to prison for years. But what nobody realized at the time, including her own public defender, there was actually a camera that caught this corrupt cop planting the drugs. Full video 👇

🚨BREAKING🚨: (Never-before-disclosed information about the J6 pipe bomb investigation begins in paragraph 5, below.) While the GOP grassroots, conservatives, MAGA, America First, and their variously preferred “influencers” appear “united” in tearing each other and their former coalition apart, a real curiosity has become increasingly apparent in the Black civil rights community. Almost without exception, the most visible and outspoken Black political activists have remained completely silent on the case of Brian Cole Jr., the autistic Black man accused, arrested, and jailed without bond by the Trump Department of Justice as the alleged January 5–6, 2021 pipe bomber. Sources within the Cole camp have told me that all of the most prominent voices in Black media, podcasting, and civil rights activism have been contacted about Cole’s case. While a small handful initially expressed interest in covering it or speaking out on his behalf, all have since “ghosted” them and no longer return calls or messages. What’s going on? This is a group of political activists almost entirely unified in their opposition to anything the Trump administration does. They are equally unified in their readiness to speak out, rally, march, protest, and even call for civil disobedience at any perceived misstep or civil rights abuse by law enforcement or the judicial system against people of color — even when those alleged abuses involve individuals with long and violent criminal records. By contrast, Brian Cole Jr. has no criminal background, has never been in trouble, and comes from a family with a long history of voting exclusively for Democratic Party candidates. Furthermore, Cole’s arrest bears all the earmarks of a classic scapegoat cover-up operation. Nearly five years after @FBI built a case file on Cole — apparently dismissed for lack of prosecutable evidence — the FBI and @thejusticedept did not revisit that file “with a new set of eyes” until after I named a WHITE former cop (now working for the CIA) as a possible forensic match to the mysterious gray-hooded figure who planted the two suspicious devices at the RNC and DNC headquarters the evening before the January 6 riot. According to Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) — the congressman who has spent the most time investigating all things related to January 6 — the FBI had two eyewitnesses who described the January 5 pipe bomber as a “white male.” Loudermilk revealed this in a televised committee hearing early this year. Rep. Loudermilk already knew I was on the right track in connecting the pipe bomber both to a WHITE person and to the @CapitolPolice. For the first time, I am revealing the contents of a private conversation I had with Loudermilk after my November 5 morning appearance on the Glenn Beck Program, where Glenn and I discussed our forthcoming November 8 story on @TheBlaze, in which we named our “person of interest” in the January 6 pipe bomb saga: a WHITE former COP with the U.S. Capitol Police. This was a text exchange between the congressman and me. (I will share screenshots of the entire exchange if forced to.) Here are his abbreviated remarks: LOUDERMILK: “You are about to shake the world!! … We had recently uncovered some evidence that was leading us in the same direction. We need to talk face to face; I have info that can fill in the gaps … Will need to meet to discuss. It is circumstantial, but it points to USCP involvement.” (I will also reveal what that “circumstantial” evidence of Capitol Police involvement is, in very short order. It is time, and it is quite “substantial.”) What more does the Black civil rights community need to rise up against this abuse by our Department of Justice? We have a young, special-needs Black man falsely accused by an FBI that already knows a white person planted the devices. We have congressional investigators who had already tied the gray-hooded bomber to the Capitol Police — even before my team and I independently made the same connection. In short: A Black man is being framed by Trump’s FBI and DOJ to cover up the illegal actions of a white cop. Dear God … what more is needed to call citizens to the streets of D.C. to protest this obvious injustice and cover-up? Where is … BLM? The NAACP? The National Urban League? Rev. Sharpton’s National Action Network? The Equal Justice Initiative? Fair Fight Action? Benjamin Crump? Pod Save the People? NPR’s Code Switch? The Breakfast Club with Charlamagne tha God and his crew? Roland Martin Unfiltered? The Root? The Grio? BET? Ebony? Essence? Blavity? Vibe? Black Agenda Report? Dr. Rashad Richey? Stephen Smith? Steve Harvey? Don Lemon? Oprah? Shall I go on? @NAACP @NatUrbanLeague @NationalAction @TheRevAl @AttorneyCrump @Blklivesmatter @eji_org @LegacySites @RevDrBarber @BRepairers @UniteThePoor @staceyabrams @blackfutureslab @PodSaveThePpl @NPRCodeSwitch @BreakfastClubAM @cthagod @VibeMagazine @stephenasmith @rolandsmartin @TheRoot @theGrio @Essence @EBONY @Blavity @IAmSteveHarvey @BET @OWNTV ***Who silenced ALL of you on Brian Cole Jr.? ***Did all of you get “the call,” too? #FreeBrianColeJr @FreeBrianCole

Something terrible was done to me and my family earlier this week, and I refuse to be silent about it. On Thursday, I went to the Kroger's and asked for a pound of their nova lox, which they were selling for $7.99 a pound. Anyone who follows nova lox knows this in an incredible price. The Kroger's fish guy eyes up the remaining lox, puts the entire container on the scale, and when it rings up 1.01 pounds, he exclaims "Wow! Doesn't get much closer than that!" I agreed. Just 0.01 pound off is pretty close. Then this man proceeds, in front of God, me and my friend and Treasurer Bob who I was on the phone with, to subtract just 0.01 pounds from the weight. So I says to the Kroger's fish guy I says "hey, aren't you going to take weight off for the container?" "I did," he says, "before I rang it up." Then he hands me the lox, container and all, with a receipt on it for exactly 1 pound of nova lox for $7.99. This man, who I can only presume considers himself an agent for good in this world, is telling me that he truly believes this aluminum container only weighs 0.01 pounds. In a pig's eye it only weighs 0.01 pounds! But then, maybe I'm wrong. After all, this guy eyed up the lox and knew it was close to a pound. He works with salmon and salmon accessories all day long. Maybe he already knows that the container is exactly 0.01 pounds. I'm still skeptical. I say to Bob, who is still on the phone, "I think this guy just ripped me off for about 20 cents." Bob agrees, and is now nearly as filled with rage as I. Now anyone who knows me will tell you that I'm not one to overreact. Maybe this guy is trying to ruin me and smile in my face, maybe he isn't. We'll find out soon enough. After all, I have the container. The plan is simple: eat the lox, clean out the container, and then weigh it on my scale that I use for situations like this (which is often). If it weighs 0.01 pounds, well hey, that's that. But if it doesn't...oh boy if it doesn't. So over the next 24 hours, I eat the pound or lox. Lox in the morning, lox in the evening, lox at supper-time. When lox is on a bagel, you can eat lox 'bout anytime. After I used the last bit, the moment of truth had arrived. Was I wrong, or was I victim of fraud? I carefully weighed the lox (photo attached), and there was the truth, plain as day: That container weighs exactly 0.6 ounces, which is 0.0375 pounds. NOT 0.01 pounds. He overcharged me by 0.0275 pounds. And as we all know, at $7.99 a pound, that's exactly 21.975 cents that he overcharged me. I was right all along. It's just like I had told Bob: that guy DID rip me off for about 20 cents. As of now, I'm weighing my options on my next steps, but I can assure you, next steps will be stepped. Now I know what you're thinking. "Spike, this is a travesty! Do you think you'll ever go back to the Kroger's?" Well I'll tell you, once trust is broken, it takes a lot to rebuild. But their fish prices are amazing. So of course I'm going back. Some of you might also be thinking "Spike, you just wrote multiple paragraphs about being trivially overcharged for smoked salmon. I know you converted to Christianity, but this might be the most Jewish thing you've ever posted." And you know what, maybe you're right. I've surrendered my life to Jesus. I am a confessional Lutheran (Missouri Synod). Hier stehe ich, ich kann nicht anders. But my blood is still half-Ashkenazi, and 21.975 cents is still 21.975 cents. Join me as I fight for justice.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 571 interactions against 247K followers, an engagement rate of 0.23%. Measured over 12 original posts, its engagement rate beats 74% of 20,444 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 29K times each, and 2.00% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 11.5% 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 70% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 12 posts sampled, 83% carry an image or video and 17% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 22x its own typical post.
- What is Spike Cohen's engagement rate on X?
- Spike Cohen (@RealSpikeCohen) has an engagement rate of 0.23%, based on the median interactions across 12 original posts from the last 30 days against 247,386 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.23%, Spike Cohen sits above the 50th percentile of the 205,582 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 @RealSpikeCohen have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 74% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 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 @RealSpikeCohen post?
- Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.67 posts per day across the measured window.
