A typical post picks up 276 interactions against 709K followers, an engagement rate of 0.039%. Measured over 9 original posts, its engagement rate beats 55% 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 12K times each, and 2.39% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.63% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.97 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 9 posts sampled, 44% carry an image or video, 56% are part of a thread and 44% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 15K interactions, about 55x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Senator Ron Johnson's engagement rate beats 55% 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 72% 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 0.039%, Senator Ron Johnson 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%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 201,449 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,929 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 12:00 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.

This account's posting mix compared with catalog-wide effects
FormatThis accountCatalog effect95% intervalAccounts behind it
Image or video44% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K

  • 44% 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.
  • 44% 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 218 characters, which falls in the 180 - 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 180 to 280 characters match the same accounts' other posts almost exactly.

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.

    Four mistakes Fauci made when pleading the 5th today: 1. Once a witness opens the door to a topic, the witness cannot then plead the 5th with regard to that topic. And Fauci’s opening statement opened many doors widely, including when he claimed he had a “decades-long record of cooperating with Congress” including “during and after the Covid pandemic” when he “appeared multiple times for hearings in the Senate and the House.” That puts the question of whether he properly cooperated when responding to questions, including prior questions from Senator Paul, in all of those hearings directly at issue. Here are a few of his statements through which he opened the door broadly: •“I served at the NIH for over 54 years, 38 of those as Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.” •“Over that period, I proved that I believe in and respect the value of legitimate congressional oversight. In fact, I testified before and/or briefed Senate and House committees well over 200 times over those 38 years.” •“During and after the Covid pandemic, I have appeared multiple times for hearings in the Senate and the House, usually under oath, and sat for several days-long, transcribed sworn interviews answering questions about the very issues that are now the subject of this hearing.” •“However, Given Senator Paul’s obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution, his repeated slanderous comments about me, and recently, his publicly releasing my unredacted personal diary, aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me, the only conclusion I can reach is that the sole reason he is calling me before this committee is to get me to say something – anything – that could vindicate his repeated public pledges that I end up, in his words, ‘behind bars.’ Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion.” •“Therefore, although it pains me to do so because of the respect I have for the legislative branch of government and my decades-long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the constitution to refrain from answering your questions.” 2. The 5th amendment can only be used when answering a question which would present real and appreciable danger. Thus, his use of the 5th during the hearing for questions that clearly don’t meet this standard, including about the color of his tie and what day of the week it is, reflects on its improper use during the hearing overall. 3. Since invoking the 5th is question specific, announcing before even hearing the questions that he would “refrain from answering [the committee’s] questions” under the 5th was itself improper. 4. Finally, ignoring the broad presidential pardon he received, as if it doesn’t exist, including for questions that would clearly fall within the parameters of that incredibly broad pardon, was a misstep that may come back to bite him later. @SenRandPaul @SenRonJohnson @HawleyMO @berniemoreno @SenatorLankford

    Anthony Fauci was lying through his teeth. We advise pregnant women not to eat sushi or have a glass of wine — yet Fauci and other health officials urged them to get the experimental gene therapy injection during all phases of their pregnancy. We will never know how many babies were miscarried because of Fauci’s lies.

    Soon after the COVID shot was released, VAERS was flooded with adverse events. The “red flags” and safety signals were screaming at Anthony Fauci and Peter Marks. They had to close their eyes and ears not to see them. https://t.co/lIkupToTGD

    For years, I’ve heard disturbing stories about how patients and their families were treated in hospitals during the pandemic. On Monday, I’m hosting a roundtable, “COVID-19 Hospital Protocols: Real Stories from Real People.” Doctors, nurses, survivors, and grieving families will share what they witnessed. People needlessly died because of these flawed protocols. It’s time to hear their stories and expose what happened.

    What Dr. Fauci displayed last Wednesday was contempt for Congress, contempt for this committee, and contempt for our investigation. I voted to hold Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress, and our investigation has only just begun. https://t.co/PN0Nlli7pk

    Dr. Fauci received a sweeping pardon but may still be vulnerable to state charges. But the first step of accountability is exposure of truth — and my investigation has only just begun. https://t.co/xnNE2Ba9sF

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 276 interactions against 709K followers, an engagement rate of 0.039%. Measured over 9 original posts, its engagement rate beats 55% 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 12K times each, and 2.39% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.63% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.97 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week.

What is Senator Ron Johnson's engagement rate on X?
Senator Ron Johnson (@SenRonJohnson) has an engagement rate of 0.039%, based on the median interactions across 9 original posts from the last 30 days against 708,642 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.039%, Senator Ron Johnson 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 @SenRonJohnson have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 55% 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 @SenRonJohnson post?
Most posts go out around 12:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.97 posts per day across the measured window.
