A typical post picks up 1.4K interactions against 604K followers, an engagement rate of 0.226%. Measured over 8 original posts, its engagement rate beats 82% of 3,848 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 48K times each, and 2.86% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 7.90% 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, though only 43% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 01:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 8 posts sampled, 50% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 5.6K interactions, about 4.1x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #breaking, #russiagate, #russiagatehoax.

Compared with accounts its own size

Paul Sperry's engagement rate beats 82% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,848 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 8 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 0.226%, Paul Sperry sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,320 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.081% to 0.436%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,320 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,750 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

    NEW: The Secret Service got involved in the James Comey threat case after an Emerald Isle, N.C., cop notified his police chief that Comey, a guest on the island, had posted an apparent threat against President Trump, according to new court filings in the case. Comey initially refused to give SS agents his address at the beach house where he was staying in order to be interviewed. The "86 47" seashell formation was found just a few miles away.

    BREAKING: Prosecutors will argue at trial a book by James Comey shows he had a state of mind to "k*ll President Trump" thru "stochastic terrorism" (in Comey's own words) by posting an image "86 47" to his 200k Instagram followers. Comey's novel describes a podcaster who "through the wonder of the Internet" convinces his fans of "k*lling his foes." "It's where a charismatic leader jacks people up, but through the wonder of the Internet, avoids a direct connection to what comes next," Comey wrote in "FDR Drive," which came out just five days after Comey posted his seashell threat in May 2025, less than a year after two attempts on Trump's life, inclg one in which he was shot in the ear. "He knows an attack will follow his words but he closes his eyes so he can say he wasn't part of it," Comey wrote, providing more evidence of intent. "People are susceptible to [social media] messages that offer a sense of purpose through violence," Comey also wrote, and because those messages are "in your pocket reaching you constantly through your buzzing phone [i]t's an order of magnitude more effective and more dangerous."

    #BREAKING: Federal prosecutors argue "there is reason to doubt" ex-FBI chief James Comey's story he stumbled on an "86 47" seashell formation while walking w/ his wife on a NC beach. In new court papers, they reveal the shells were located behind a sand dune in a spot beachcombers could not easily discover them--"And there is no evidence that anyone else arranged, photographed, or even saw the shells."

Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.226%, Paul Sperry sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,320 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.
