A typical post picks up 782 interactions against 485K followers, an engagement rate of 0.161%. Measured over 10 original posts, its engagement rate beats 80% of 15,823 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 26K times each, and 3.00% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 5.37% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.2 post a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 02:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 10 posts sampled, 20% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 15K interactions, about 19x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Justin Amash's engagement rate beats 80% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (15,823 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 80% 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 0.161%, Justin Amash sits above the 50th percentile of the 160,367 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.128% to 0.606%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 160,367 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 25,797 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 02:00 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.

  • 20% 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.
  • 0% 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 161 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below 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.

    JUST IN: The Pentagon has released a photo of Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, a 19-year-old U.S. soldier from Carrollton, Texas, who was killed during Iran's ballistic missile and drone attacks over the weekend. Gonzales was supporting a U.S. mission against the Islamic State group when she was killed while helping defend against incoming Iranian strikes. Her death comes as fighting across the Middle East continues to intensify. U.S. forces launched their ninth consecutive night of counterstrikes against Iranian targets as the two nations continue to battle for control of the Strait of Hormuz.

    Here’s the roll call of members of Congress who betrayed the Constitution and the American people by voting yes on the KIDS Act. The sickest part is that these people used “protecting kids” as an excuse to further insert government between parents and their children—all while establishing a surveillance infrastructure to monitor and control Americans of all ages.

    One of the worst things about Trump is that he’s ushering in more corporate welfare, cronyism, and socialism while parading it under the banner of capitalism, so we end up with all the failings of those ideologies but with a generation of young people blaming the market economy.

    Forty-seven members of Congress skipped the vote on the KIDS Act, which establishes the infrastructure for mass surveillance of Americans online. This bill needed a two-thirds majority to pass, so just 17 more no votes could have sunk it! A couple members might have a legit excuse, but 47? No way. They bailed to avoid going on the record, even at the cost of furthering the surveillance state.

    NDAA Section 219 is headed for a House vote tomorrow, and it would permanently integrate U.S. military technology and supply chains with Israel’s. If passed, this wouldn’t be a temporary arrangement; it would lock in a long-term defense merger that reaches across presidential administrations and pushes America even further under Israel’s strategic control. @RepThomasMassie is the lone Republican opposing it. But the House already moved the rule forward without allowing a real debate or a separate vote on Massie’s amendment, sending the bill closer to the Senate with the most controversial part still intact. If any other country were being written into U.S. law this manner, the backlash would be massive. Even America’s oldest ally, Great Britain, does not have a provision like this. That’s what makes Section 219 such a major story and why the lack of public scrutiny is so striking.

    BREAKING: Two U.S. service members were killed while helping defend against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks in Jordan, CENTCOM says. A third American service member is currently listed as missing in action. Four others were medically evacuated, treated, and have since returned from Jordanian hospitals. CENTCOM says it is withholding the identities of the fallen until their families have been notified.

Measured over 10 original posts, its engagement rate beats 80% of 15,823 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count.

Justin Amash (@justinamash) has an engagement rate of 0.161%, based on the median interactions across 10 original posts from the last 30 days against 485,253 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.161%, Justin Amash sits above the 50th percentile of the 160,367 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 @justinamash have real engagement?
