Engagement
A typical post picks up 487 interactions against 853K followers, an engagement rate of 0.057%. Measured over 21 original posts, its engagement rate beats 62% of 19,932 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 23K times each, and 2.11% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.71% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on almost every day in the window. Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 21 posts sampled, 62% carry an image or video, 10% are part of a thread and 29% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 23K interactions, about 47x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Mike Lee's engagement rate beats 62% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 69% 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 0.057%, Mike Lee sits above the 25th percentile of the 201,449 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.141%.

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.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 62% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 29% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 62% 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.
- 29% 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 374 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.

I’ve objected to a time agreement that would lock-in leaving for August recess without a vote. We can’t commit to summer vacation before we commit to secure elections.

The Good: We confirmed Todd Blanche as Attorney General. We passed a CR to fund the government through early December. At the encouragement of President Trump, we will revisit the budget resolution for Reconciliation 3.0 in coming weeks. The Bad: Democrats, having lied about supporting simple voter ID in the past, blocked this commonsense component of the SAVE America Act. The Ugly: There are 21 weeks left in the year. We’re scheduled to be in recess for 14 of them. *** I proudly voted against leaving town. And I will continue pushing for the SAVE America Act when the Senate is back in session. Many thanks to the grassroots champions of the SAVE America Act and election security who have been with us every step of the way. You are the reason that Congress has been forced to confront this pressing issue. You are the reason Democrats have been forced to repeatedly display their contempt for American voters. And you are the reason that this battle isn’t going away. Keep fighting.

NEW: DHS confirms that a semi-truck driver arrested for killing two people in a multi-car crash in Southern California is an Indian illegal alien who was caught and released at the AZ border by the Biden admin & given a commercial driver's license (CDL) by the state of California. DHS says Chamkaur Singh was arrested by police in Moab, UT during a traffic stop after it was revealed he had a nationwide futile arrest warrant for homicide - vehicular manslaughter, in relation to a deadly crash he was involved in Ontario, CA in March in which he crashed into multiple cars, killing two people in separate vehicles. DHS says Singh's California CDL remains active despite having multiple driving convictions on his CDL record for improper lane or location, following too closely, and speeding. ICE has placed a detainer on Singh with local law enforcement in Utah. DHS statement: “This illegal alien from India is accused of causing a semi-truck crash that killed two people in California,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “Due to the Biden Administration’s open borders and Gavin Newsom’s sanctuary policies, this criminal was released into our country and granted a commercial driver’s license. Despite having three convictions on his driving record, his CDL is still active."

- What is Mike Lee's engagement rate on X?
- Mike Lee (@SenMikeLee) has an engagement rate of 0.057%, based on the median interactions across 21 original posts from the last 30 days against 853,222 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.057%, Mike Lee sits above the 25th percentile of the 201,449 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 @SenMikeLee have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 62% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (19,932 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 @SenMikeLee post?
- Most posts go out around 20:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.13 posts per day across the measured window.
