Engagement
A typical post picks up 150 interactions against 1.9M followers, an engagement rate of 0.008%. Measured over 194 original posts, its engagement rate beats 42% of 3,774 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 13K times each, and 1.14% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.71% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 15.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 194 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video and 54% are part of a thread. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 9.8K interactions, about 66x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Fox News Politics's engagement rate beats 42% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 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 60% 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 0.008%, Fox News Politics sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,654 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 10:00 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.

Dolly Parton spent decades refusing to pick political sides — turning down the Presidential Medal of Freedom twice under Trump and once under Biden because she didn't want to be seen as partisan. The country music icon, who died Tuesday at 80, built her legacy on a principle most entertainers abandoned long ago: loving her audience more than any political cause. "I learned a long time ago, keep your damn mouth shut if you want to stay in show business," Parton once told ABC. "I'm not in politics, I'm an entertainer."

IndyCar driver Graham Rahal torches Sen. Adam Schiff after the California Democrat accused Trump of wasting taxpayer money on the historic Freedom250 race in Washington — a race that was privately funded by Penske Corporation. Schiff posted on X claiming Trump was using the event as a "self-aggrandizing" distraction from rising costs. One problem: he apparently never checked who actually paid for it. Penske President Bud Denker told NBC's Washington affiliate directly: "We are." Rahal fired back, noting the race drove thousands of visitors into the DC area who spent money at local businesses — an economic boon, not a taxpayer burden. "This was privately funded, not government," Rahal wrote. "That's economic impact for you."

Amy Klobuchar issued more than 1,000 press releases from her Senate office between 2022 and 2025. Not a single one mentioned Minnesota's $250 million Feeding Our Future scandal — or the broader $9 billion social services fraud crisis engulfing her state. Now she's running for governor on a promise to "root out waste fraud and abuse" on day one. Her Republican opponent, Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth, says voters won't buy it: "Where were you for the last 10 years, but absolutely the last eight years?"

GOP CHALLENGER: A 30-year Minnesota state trooper is taking on Ilhan Omar in one of the bluest districts in America — and he's making fraud the centerpiece of his campaign. John Nagel won the Republican primary in Minnesota's 5th Congressional District last week and is now drawing a direct line between Omar and the massive Feeding Our Future fraud scandal that rocked the state. Omar's former campaign staffer pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and a restaurant she promoted as a meal distribution site was later convicted in the scheme that siphoned millions in child nutrition funds. "I think the people of Minnesota have been lied to. They've had their money stolen. They want to see somebody that's going to come in and fix things," Nagel told Fox News Digital. Omar has called any suggestion she knew about the fraud "flat-out false."

A Dearborn, Michigan town hall exploded into a religious flashpoint Tuesday when a local pastor declared the city has been "lost" to Sharia law — accusing officials of applying uneven justice to protect Muslim residents. "America, we have lost this city. This is a city that is no longer up under American laws; we are up under Sharia law. We will not have it anymore," Pastor Sewell told the council.

Tulsi Gabbard delivered an emotional update on her husband Abraham Williams' cancer fight — doctors are confident they cut out all cancerous bone and tissue from his sacral chordoma, an extremely rare "one in a million" cancer that led her to resign from Trump's Cabinet as director of national intelligence. Abraham is now cancer-free and in rigorous physical therapy, Gabbard said, while noting that the battle isn't over. He'll need frequent MRIs to monitor whether the cancer returns. "We are so grateful to God for his unconditional love, for being our shelter, for being our peace and our strength," Gabbard said, before her husband joined her on camera with a hug.

Antifa-linked websites are going dark after the State Department designated their Italy-based tech provider a global terrorist entity. The A/I Collective, which provided encrypted hosting, chat, and anonymity tools to far-left networks across the U.S. and Europe, now faces full U.S. sanctions. Americans and financial institutions are blocked from doing business with it, and any assets under U.S. jurisdiction are frozen.

EXCLUSIVE: Angel Dad Joe Abraham is joining ICE as executive director of the Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement office.

Abraham has since become an outspoken advocate for victims of illegal immigrant crime. He says he will use his experience to make sure victims and their families are heard and supported.

Jewish Democrats in Michigan are crossing party lines to back Republican Mike Rogers in the Senate race against Abdul El-Sayed — and the math could be devastating for Democrats. Rogers lost his last Senate bid by under 20,000 votes. Michigan has roughly 70,000 Jewish voters. Republican strategists say if a majority flip, that's a potential 100,000-vote swing in a race Democrats must hold to have any shot at retaking the Senate majority. An open letter is now circulating among Jewish leaders urging Democrats and independents to support Rogers, with one organizer calling it a "do-or-die moment" driven by what they describe as an "anti-Jewish drift" in the party. El-Sayed's associations with controversial streamer Hasan Piker, his use of the word "bloodthirsty" to describe Israel's military operations, and his repeated refusal to directly answer whether Israel has the right to exist, have fueled the backlash.

Puerto Ricans overwhelmingly reject statehood in Fox News Digital interviews, citing fears of economic collapse, higher taxes, and the erosion of their cultural identity. Residents on the island and in the mainland U.S. pushed back hard on the idea of becoming the 51st state — even as Puerto Rico's pro-statehood governor continues to champion the cause alongside President Trump. One woman compared the potential outcome to what happened to Hawaii. Alejandra from San Juan said locals are "already been struggling for a while now" and statehood would "make stuff even worse." The concerns went deeper than economics. Residents pointed to a fear of losing what makes Puerto Rico uniquely Puerto Rican. "It will lose the heart and soul," one resident said.

- What is Fox News Politics's engagement rate on X?
- Fox News Politics (@foxnewspolitics) has an engagement rate of 0.008%, based on the median interactions across 194 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,853,197 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.008%, Fox News Politics sits above the 10th percentile of the 36,654 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 @foxnewspolitics have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 42% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,774 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 @foxnewspolitics post?
- Most posts go out around 10:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 15.07 posts per day across the measured window.
