Early reading. We have captured 2 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.

A typical post picks up 78 interactions against 78K followers, an engagement rate of 0.101%. Posts are seen about 7.6K times each, and 1.03% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 9.77% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.27 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 20% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 04:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 2 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 50% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 2.5K interactions, about 33x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #cda, #القائم_بالاعمال. Only 2 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 66,128 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 57,111 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 04:00 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.

Engagement by hour posted, UTCTwenty-four bars, one per UTC hour. Each bar shows how posts published in that hour compare with their own authors' median engagement. Bars above the centre line ran higher than the median, bars below ran lower. A marker flags Busiest hour: 04:00 UTC.

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 video100% of posts+111%+108% to +115%34K
Outbound link50% of posts-41%-42% to -40%32K

  • 100% 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.
  • 50% 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 382 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.

    Today, as part of Economic Fury, Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control increased pressure on Iran and its proxy militias in Iraq by designating individuals and businesses exploiting Iraq’s oil sector and undermining the country’s security. Today’s action includes Ali Maarij Al-Bahadly—Iraq’s Deputy Minister of Oil, who abuses his position to facilitate the diversion of oil to be sold for the benefit of the Iranian regime—along with three senior leaders of Iran-aligned terrorist militias. https://t.co/ouIxGx0G9y

    Within the framework of the strategic partnership between Iraq and the United States of America, and over many years of friendship and joint strategic cooperation in the political, economic, and security fields — culminating in joint efforts to defeat ISIS — it was decided to establish a High Joint Coordination Committee. Yesterday, March 26, 2026, at the first meeting of the High Joint Coordination Committee, the Iraqi and U.S. sides decided to intensify cooperation to prevent terrorist attacks and ensure that Iraqi territory is not used as a launching point for any aggression against the Iraqi people, the Iraqi Security Forces, Iraqi strategic facilities and assets, as well as against U.S. personnel, diplomatic missions, and the Global Coalition. Both sides emphasized their commitment to keeping Iraq outside the scope of the ongoing military conflict in the region, fully respecting its sovereignty, and supporting Iraq in ensuring its territory, airspace, and territorial waters cannot be used to threaten Iraq, or neighboring and regional states. The two sides affirmed their renewed commitment to coordinating counterterrorism efforts in a manner that prioritizes Iraqi action to achieve the shared objectives in a manner that preserves stability and safeguards Iraq’s sovereignty.

    The Trump Administration is sanctioning Iranian regime-aligned facilitators, including Iraq’s Deputy Oil Minister, for exploiting Iraq's resources to fund terrorism. Their actions undermine Iraq's sovereignty and fuel attacks on Americans and Iraqis.

    This is how the Iranian regime treats their neighbors. These actions by Iran and its proxies are a direct assault on Iraq’s sovereignty, stability, and unity. https://t.co/BydtMxP3Ww

    Twelve years ago, ISIS terrorists' groups carried out a genocide against the Yezidi community. Today, we remember those who were lost and honor the resilience of the survivors who carry their memory forward. Justice for these atrocities matters. So does ensuring lasting security, prosperity, and protection for vulnerable communities. The U.S. remains committed to working with the Government of Iraq, the Kurdistan Regional Government, and our international partners to safeguard the fundamental right of religious freedom and help build a future where all Iraqis can live in safety and dignity.

    The U.S. Consulate General in Erbil is thrilled to welcome back Ambassador Steven H. Fagin, who returns to Iraq as Chargé d'Affaires at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. Many of us in Erbil fondly remember Ambassador Fagin as our Consul General from 2018 to 2020, when he worked to strengthen ties with the Iraqi Kurdistan Region. That experience will serve him well as he advances U.S. interests across all of Iraq, including the IKR. Congratulations, Ambassador Fagin, from all of us who had the privilege of working alongside you. We look forward to your continued leadership strengthening U.S. partnerships across the country.
