Arianna Huffington engagement report
@ariannahuff - 2.6M followers on X
Measured over 20 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 1, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 29 interactions against 2.6M followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 20 original posts, its engagement rate beats 19% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 0.234% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.475% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.93 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 20 posts sampled, 55% carry an image or video, 15% are part of a thread and 60% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 615 interactions, about 21x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Arianna Huffington's engagement rate beats 19% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 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 22% 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 0.001%, Arianna Huffington sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,459 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.012%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday 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.

So inspired by @DjokerNole's new documentary Wolf in Winter out next month on @PrimeVideo. We’ve all seen the mind-bending numbers — 24 Grand Slams, an Olympic gold medal, 428 weeks as world number one — and Djokovic has been open about what helps him keep up his amazing mental and physical performance: conscious breathing and meditation, mindful eating, exercise, sleep, recovery. But what I love most about the film are the universal and deeply human themes it covers: family, sacrifice, resilience, determination, self-judgment, self-belief, spirit and love. Check it out next month! Image Credit: Getty

Obesity is a chronic disease, and Medicaid beneficiaries deserve access to the same evidence-based care as anyone else. This isn't a choice between medication and healthy habits. For eligible patients, GLP-1 therapies should complement—not replace—nutrition, physical activity, sleep and ongoing clinical care. The federal BALANCE Model gives states a practical path to deliver that comprehensive care. While the negotiated cost is $245 per patient per month, states pay only a fraction of that because Medicaid is jointly financed by state and federal governments. For most states, the actual cost is approximately $58–$122 per patient per month, depending on their federal matching rate. At a time when Medicaid budgets are under real pressure, it's especially important to invest in interventions backed by strong evidence and with the potential to improve every aspect of health. As states weigh whether to participate, the conversation should be grounded in both the evidence and the full financial picture. Patients deserve access to clinically appropriate obesity care regardless of their income or ZIP code. And policymakers deserve an honest accounting of what participation actually costs. With the July 31 application deadline approaching, raising awareness with @thrive founder and CEO @ariannahuff: Governors and Medicaid leaders should give the BALANCE Model careful consideration so that access to evidence-based obesity care is determined by medical need—not income or ZIP code.

Seventeen years ago, @Captsully landed a US Airways flight in the Hudson River after a bird strike, saving all 155 people on board. Now he’s taking on a new challenge as he reveals his recent Alzheimer’s diagnosis. And just as he used his platform after “The Miracle on the Hudson” to speak out about air safety, he’s now continuing to be of service. As he put it, “Over the years, when people would ask about the successful outcome of Flight 1549, I would say that ‘courage can be contagious,’ and on that day it helped everyone band together to get everyone off that airplane successfully. Now we need that courage to battle this disease. I am now part of a larger community with many of you, and we will be courageous together.”

A great lesson from Karolína Muchová, who lost in the Wimbledon final against her friend and Czech counterpart Linda Nosková. Despite losing in three sets, Muchová was able to celebrate her friend’s win with grace and humor and express gratitude to all those who helped her make it to the final. As she said, “I’ll be fighting. And I hope I’ll get a chance to get to the final again.”

I love coincidences — the combination of improbability, timing and felicity has a kind of magic power. So while the World Cup might be over (enhorabuena Spain!), the image that will stick with me is the photo of a 20-year-old Lionel Messi giving a bath to a 5-month-old Lamine Yamal. The improbability defies comprehension: that Messi would be playing in Barcelona, that Yamal's mother would sign up for a raffle to appear in a calendar, that she would win the raffle, that Messi would be randomly assigned to Yamal, that Yamal would grow up to be a soccer star, that 39-year-old Messi would still be playing, and that their teams would advance to the World Cup final! The odds are…slim. More extreme than "one in a billion," as Joan Monfort, the photographer who took the photo, said.

The death of Senator Lindsey Graham on Saturday from a tear in his aorta due to “arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease,” according to the medical examiner, sent shockwaves through Washington, D.C. and beyond. But lost in the political discussion about his death is a public health opportunity that can serve as a reminder for all of us of the basic questions we need to be asking ourselves and discussing with our physician: • What is my blood pressure? • Do I carry excess weight? • Have I spoken with my doctor about whether a CT scan is an important screening test for me? • What are my cholesterol levels? LDL? Or ApoB and Lp(a) if my physician recommends? • What are my levels of the inflammation marker c-reactive protein (CRP)? And how am I doing in the daily behaviors that are foundational to our health: How is my sleep, which is especially important if I’m traveling across multiple time zones? Am I eating a healthy diet? How am I managing my stress levels? Am I getting enough physical activity and exercise? We have made tremendous progress in cardiovascular disease with reductions in deaths since 2000. Senator Graham’s unexpected death can be a collective teachable moment to help us accelerate the decline.

“I think AI is a Trojan horse that everybody knows the Greeks are inside.” That was Christopher Nolan, taking on the role of Cassandra in responding to a question about whether AI might be — like the ploy that Odysseus used — a seemingly welcome gift that once inside our lives turns into something catastrophic. “I’ve never seen a technology advancing so rapidly, so completely rejected by the public,” Nolan said, advising “a very healthy skepticism, because technology is always going to give us great gifts…but it has to be viewed with skepticism.” Sure, skepticism about new technology (or any gifts that show up at your door without a tracking number) is healthy. But our focus shouldn’t be only on the technology. Whether AI turns into a Trojan horse or not will depend on what we do. What’s missing from our version of the narrative is the need to invest not just in machines but in people. If AI is ultimately going to be a true gift, we need to pour as much attention and as many resources into building our humanity as we are into building AI. People will need to co-evolve along with the technology, and they’ll need all the help they can get. This will decide whether we have a happier ending with the new arrival at our gates than the people of Troy had with theirs. 🎥: @HugoDecrypte

Google searches for “brain health” have nearly doubled in the last five years, and people are increasingly hungry for solutions. “If this decade is about obesity drugs,” said Dave Ricks, CEO of @EliLillyandCo, recently, “I'm hopeful the 2030s are about brain drugs. And if you look at human suffering, that's the largest area.” The science is clear — we have a powerful tool to build cognitive resilience through daily behaviors: how we sleep, what we eat, how often we move, how we manage stress, and how we stay socially connected. Here is some advice I wish I knew in my 20s.

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 29 interactions against 2.6M followers, an engagement rate of 0.001%. Measured over 20 original posts, its engagement rate beats 19% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 12K times each, and 0.234% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.475% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.93 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is Arianna Huffington's engagement rate on X?
- Arianna Huffington (@ariannahuff) has an engagement rate of 0.001%, based on the median interactions across 20 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,613,975 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.001%, Arianna Huffington sits below the 10th percentile of the 37,459 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 @ariannahuff have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 19% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @ariannahuff post?
- Most posts go out around 15:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.93 posts per day across the measured window.
