M.A. Rothman engagement report
@MichaelARothman - 94K followers on X
Measured over 85 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 18, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 9 interactions against 94K followers, an engagement rate of 0.01%. Measured over 85 original posts, its engagement rate beats 17% of 21,185 tracked accounts of a similar size. That is a reason to look at how the audience behaves - reply depth, saves, whether the followers are recent - rather than a conclusion about it on its own. Posts are seen about 567 times each, and 1.59% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 0.605% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 85 posts sampled, 96% carry an image or video, 15% are part of a thread and 22% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 18K interactions, about 2002x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
M.A. Rothman's engagement rate beats 17% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 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 54% 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 0.01%, M.A. Rothman sits above the 10th percentile of the 212,078 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.025%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 18:00 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.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 96% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 22% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 96% 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.
- 22% 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 1687 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above 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.

This story is insane... Kimya Holmes, a Democrat Judge, is running for re-election in Louisiana. Her former fiancé, Arthur Allen, was charged with stealing over $712,000 in COVID relief funds. During their time together, Allen reportedly gifted Holmes a $765,000 house, a diamond ring, and a Corvette. Holmes is now claiming that she "didn't know" he was charged with a felony until he pleaded guilty. She has since broken off the engagement. She continues to live in the same house he gifted to her.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump lowers U.S. flags to HALF STAFF for one week starting tonight to honor Dolly Parton, after she passed away at 80 The right move 🙏🏻 “Very sad to report that Dolly Parton, one of the greatest Country singers, and far beyond, EVER, has just passed away.” “This is a true loss for millions of people.

🚨 BOMBSHELL: DHS Sec. Mullin just shocked CNN's Dana Bash by revealing SEVERAL THOUSAND terrorists were arrested that the Biden admin let into the country And they all gave a "fake name" to avoid detection. That is TERRIFYING...🤯 MULLIN: "We've arrested 2,150 terrorists that were let in under Biden...every one gave a fake name!" BASH: "Terrorists?!" MULLIN: "YES, 2,150 terrorists! Not terrorist watchlist. TERRORIST. Every one of those gave a fake name." Mullin just showed EXACTLY why having a secure border is existential Not only is an open border a MAGNET for millions of illegals, but within those millions can be THOUSANDS of terrorists And that can result in Americans literally dying. Democrats are willing to let terrorists into the country just to expand their voter base. Let that sink in 😡

🚨 NOW: Marco Rubio's State Department is RESTRICTING the Iranian delegation's visit to the US for the United Nations — travel restrictions combined with a BAN on buying luxury and other goods "The delegation is smaller than last year." 👀 Rubio plays no games with visas! Iran is lucky we are even ALLOWING them to come here...they should just be forced to attend the UN virtually And frankly, America should just withdraw from the UN. It would lose ANY meaning or legitimacy it has left. The UN does practically nothing for America and the world!

Some of you have been asking what book(s) to start with, here's a post to cover 4 primary answers depending on what you like -- there are lots more than just these, and all but one of these are multi-book series. If you're into traditional thrillers, then Perimeter and Multiverse are likely good book 1 choices, though if you ask me, I'd suggest starting with Perimeter because they're related series. Darwin's Cipher is a medical thriller and Primordial Threat is a heavy on the science and mildly futuristic Science Fiction Thriller. Below are the basic descriptions: 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫: (https://t.co/0FJV7MLMsa) Levi Yoder is a man who solves problems—Mafia problems. But when he’s diagnosed with terminal cancer, there’s nothing left to fix. He prepares to die… until the impossible happens—he learns that he's in complete remission. Before he can make sense of his second chance, Levi is thrust into a deadly game of international espionage. The CIA claims the Russian mob is gunning for him, but the truth is even more dangerous—someone wants him dead because of something his late wife did. As Levi navigates a web of deceit, organized crime, and shadowy intelligence forces, he faces an enemy he might not be able to outmaneuver. Can he uncover the truth before he and his family become collateral damage? 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞: (https://t.co/DaTHXSPY1U) 𝐌𝐔𝐋𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐄 – 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 What if your greatest scientific breakthrough became humanity’s biggest threat? Michael Salomon, a brilliant particle physicist, has just unlocked the secrets of tachyons—faster-than-light particles that could rewrite the laws of reality. But before he can even share his discovery, his research is seized by the government, and a stranger—one who knows his future—warns him that his work has already shattered time itself. A waking nightmare grips him: visions of a child he hasn’t lost—yet. A government that now hunts him. A student who remembers things they haven’t done—yet. Michael’s experiment didn’t just open a door; it shattered the walls between past, present, and future. Now, he must race against time—before the version of himself that already went too far dooms them all. From a 𝐔𝐒𝐀 𝐓𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲 best-selling author, 𝘔𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦 is a high-stakes sci-fi thriller that bends time, twists reality, and asks the ultimate question: 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞? 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐰𝐢𝐧'𝐬 𝐂𝐢𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫: (https://t.co/hhDlFrqLEq) A revolutionary discovery. A lethal new threat. A race against time to save humanity. In Darwin’s Cipher, brilliant cancer researcher Juan Gutierrez uncovers a hidden genetic algorithm that can predict the path of a species’ evolution over millennia. His breakthrough offers a tantalizing hope for overcoming human vulnerability to disease—but shadowy forces have their own sinister plans for this genetic super-tool. When an FBI analyst investigating bizarre, unsolved cases is called out to a ranch with a single surviving calf surrounded by dead cattle, the DNA evidence points to something far beyond the ordinary. Meanwhile, a newborn child with an impossible genome sets off alarms at the NIH—and the race to contain a nightmarish outbreak begins. From hidden labs to high-security bio-containment units, Darwin’s Cipher hurtles you into a nerve-shredding chase where science, conspiracy, and evolution collide—with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance. Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about our genetic destiny. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭: (https://t.co/0YLKOzT9TZ) The year is 2066, and the world is oblivious to the threat it faces.

He aimed it at the soldiers still propping them up. Standing behind the rollout of 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐄𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭 — a sweeping new sanctions push hitting Iran’s digital assets, technology, gold, aviation and shipping sectors — Bessent said the regime’s old math no longer holds. “𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘸𝘯 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘵𝘩 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘐𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘴 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘈𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘢𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦.” “𝘜𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱, 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘳𝘢 𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳.” Then he spoke straight to the rank and file. “𝘛𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘮𝘦, 𝘢𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘢𝘺𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘦𝘥𝘭𝘺 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘥, 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘶𝘮𝘱𝘩 𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘶𝘪𝘯.” Bessent reached for history’s sharpest example of a regime its own army walked away from: “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘦𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘯 𝘞𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘴∗𝘰𝘰𝘵 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦.” “𝘕𝘰 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘺 𝘪𝘵.” The pressure lands as Iran’s own leadership can’t hide the strain.

- What is M.A. Rothman's engagement rate on X?
- M.A. Rothman (@MichaelARothman) has an engagement rate of 0.01%, based on the median interactions across 85 original posts from the last 30 days against 93,745 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.01%, M.A. Rothman sits above the 10th percentile of the 212,078 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 @MichaelARothman have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 17% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (21,185 accounts), which puts it in the bottom quarter for its size 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 @MichaelARothman post?
- Most posts go out around 18:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.63 posts per day across the measured window.
