A typical post picks up 720 interactions against 2.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.029%. Measured over 68 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% of 3,758 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 61K times each, and 1.19% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.41% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 4.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 68 posts sampled, 53% carry an image or video and 35% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 87K interactions, about 120x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Josh Hawley's engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,758 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 61% 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 0.029%, Josh Hawley sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,654 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.08%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 36,654 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,977 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 19:00 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.

    As a lawyer and former attorney general of my state, I can tell you that when you get immunity—you can’t invoke the Fifth. Fauci came in and invoked the Fifth because he is guilty as all get out I look forward to voting YES to hold Fauci in contempt next week. https://t.co/I2D7tn3Z43

    Fauci is still getting his government pension, even after raking in $1 million in illegal cash prizes. He’s a scam artist and needs to be put behind bars Today was another step forward https://t.co/UBMk04OKmw

    🚨 JUST IN: Sen. Josh Hawley grills the CRAP out of Fauci, saying he has NO RIGHT to obstruct by pleading the 5th "Your lawyer sitting behind you now shifting nervously in their chairs. They know it!" "You got RICH while people were DYING...you were using federal employees with taxpayer money to apply for and explicit CASH PRIZES for YOU, PERSONALLY!" Q: What day the week is it today? FAUCI: I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment Q: What color tie are you wearing? FAUCI: I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment Q: What color is the carpet in front of you? FAUCI: I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment HAWLEY: "Let's just get one thing straight. You don't have ANY rights under the Fifth Amendment, because you've been pardoned, as you very well know, as a Supreme Court has been clear for a century and more, Brown v. Walker 1896. When he has been pardoned, he may not stand upon his privilege. You know that!"

    SEN. HAWLEY: "The reason that I asked Doctor Fauci what color his tie was and what day of the week it was and what color the carpet is... He looked, by the way. I thought he was going to answer that one. He looked very carefully at the carpet." "The reason I asked those questions was precisely to test the good faith nature of his invocation of the Fifth Amendment." "Given Doctor Fauci's 111 invocations of the Fifth Amendment, including the questions that he could have no fear of prosecution on. He's not going to get prosecuted for the color of his tie, shows that he had no interest and no intention of answering any of our questions, and that is an abuse... There's no privilege for any of that." @HawleyMO

    Senator Hawley: "Time after time, it's working people who are going to be forced to pay more because the whole point is to maximize the profit of these already wildly profitable corporations." "We need to give consumers and working people and families in this country rights against this kind of AI surveillance and exploitation."

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 720 interactions against 2.5M followers, an engagement rate of 0.029%. Measured over 68 original posts, its engagement rate beats 64% of 3,758 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 61K times each, and 1.19% of those impressions turn into an interaction.

What is Josh Hawley's engagement rate on X?
Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) has an engagement rate of 0.029%, based on the median interactions across 68 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,510,209 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.029%, Josh Hawley sits above the 25th 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 @HawleyMO have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 64% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,758 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 @HawleyMO post?
Most posts go out around 19:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day, at roughly 4.7 posts per day across the measured window.

Keep going
