@RichardGrenell - 1.8M followers on X
Measured over 84 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 31, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 2.1K interactions against 1.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.114%. Measured over 84 original posts, its engagement rate beats 86% of 3,829 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 123K times each, and 1.71% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.65% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 9 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 84 posts sampled, 67% carry an image or video and 24% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 71K interactions, about 34x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #bb28, #bigbrother, #bigbrotherbuzz.

Compared with accounts its own size
Richard Grenell's engagement rate beats 86% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,829 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 72% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 01:00 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.

Here’s what supporting TRUMP cost me: My aunt is Patti LaBelle, famous singer AND DEMOCRAT. Christmas 2019, she had just informed me that I had to move out of the home I had happily shared with her for 12 years. So when I heard her and my family talking about what a threat Trump was, I asked her “why should I be afraid of trump when you’re the one who just made me homeless?” Her family instantly attacked me and threw me out of her house. And just last year, she had a problem with me talking about my life with her on this platform. My punishment for using my 1st Amendment right this way was LIFETIME BANISHMENT. And as of today, she's still not speaking to me. And because SHE'S not speaking to me: NO ONE IN HER CIRCLE IS SPEAKING TO ME. And this will apparently last the rest of my life. WHY? Because NO ONE VIOLATES AND DISRESPECTS DEMOCRACY AND FREE SPEECH MORE THAN DEMOCRATS. I learned that lesson on Black Christmas 2019, and I've been learning it ever since. And even though I've gotten out of politics, they still hate me. But all that tells me is that I'm doing something RIGHT. Because I’d rather vote Republican because I WANT to, than Democrat because I HAVE to. God Bless America 🇺🇸

And there it goes: 🚨🚨 Just-declassified documents CONFIRM that not only was Eric Swalwell sleeping with a Chinese spy, but he was also being bribed by her—all while the leaker was on the House Intelligence Committee, attempting to take down the United States government. https://t.co/fJJdE9BhNM

I just learned something about California auto insurance that I genuinely cannot believe is legal. In mid July, my legally parked car was hit by a driver carrying only a $3,000 property-damage limit. He had insurance through California’s Low Cost Auto Insurance Program (CLCA). Normal California drivers are required to carry at least $15,000 in property-damage liability. But under this state-created program, qualifying drivers can carry just $3,000 PER ACCIDENT in property-damage coverage. Not $3,000 per car. $3,000 TOTAL. In my case, there’s allegedly another damaged vehicle making a claim against the same tiny $3,000 pot. My damage alone is already estimated at more than $3,000. And here’s another part I didn’t know: California says qualifying drivers can participate regardless of immigration status, including drivers with AB 60 licenses (California driver’s license available to people who cannot provide proof of legal immigration status in the United States) provided they can prove they’re low-income. So California created a system where certain drivers can legally carry a fraction of the liability coverage normally required—and when they cause thousands of dollars in damage, the innocent people they hit can be left fighting over $3,000. I didn’t choose this insurance policy. I didn’t cause the accident. My car was PARKED. Yet I may be the one left paying for damage someone else caused. How does that make sense?

This is humiliating for Newsom. You can tell he never even considered the idea of being cordial with the President for the sake of helping Californians. Whitmer just revealed how petty and derelict a governor Gavin is. Think of how much we’ve suffered in CA because of this stupid mimbo putting petty politics ahead of our own wellbeing. https://t.co/mI3zmq6r6u

Wait, so MAGA thinks that Ossoff meant Trump and Natalie Harp were involved in an inappropriate intimate relationship? He didn’t say that, so why did they jump to that crazy conclusion?

🚨 Election Fraud Arrests Begin This morning we arrested and federally charged a Honduran national for unlawfully registering to vote in California and falsely claiming to be a U.S. citizen. Darwin Jonathan Rivera Flores, 30, of Winnetka, is charged with two felonies and faces deportation if convicted. Because states like California allow non-citizens to easily register to vote and receive a ballot by mail, there is no telling how many non-citizens are currently registered. It is time for California to comply with @AAGDhillon’s request for a comprehensive audit of its voter rolls to protect the integrity of our elections. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.

Natalie Harp received lifesaving treatment for her bone cancer as a result of Donald Trump’s 2018 “Right to Try Act,” and wanted to work for the man who made it possible. The attacks on her are disgusting. https://t.co/lxfE2G3O3B
