Weekly civic intelligence report ยท v2.2
The Trump administration is managing political fallout from a controversial military boat strike operation. This represents ongoing controversy over military operations and their justification.
Event describes 'controversial boat strike' with minimal detail about actual constitutional mechanisms. A-score extremely low (2.7) - rule_of_law:2 for potential military oversight questions, separation:1 for executive military authority, violence:1 for military operation. Mechanism='norm_erosion_only' with no concrete norm specified yields 0.6 modifier. Scope=federal/narrow further reduces impact. B-score moderate (20.6) driven by outrage_bait:6 and media_friendliness:7 from 'controversial' framing, but mismatch:8 reflects significant gap between headline drama and substantive detail. Critical issue: no information on what makes strike 'controversial', what norms eroded, legal framework violated, or constitutional principles engaged. 'Navigating fallout' is pure political management language. Single article with vague title. Falls well below A>=25 threshold and lacks mechanism clarity required for List A/B classification.
NOISE - Insufficient constitutional substance. Requires: (1) specific legal/constitutional framework allegedly violated, (2) concrete norm erosion details, (3) institutional response mechanisms, (4) scope of military authority questions raised. Current framing is political controversy management without constitutional anchoring.
