Weekly civic intelligence report ยท v2.2
A Colorado county passed a resolution supporting Trump's mass deportation plan. This represents local-level political alignment with federal immigration enforcement priorities.
Non-binding county resolution with zero enforcement power. Mechanism explicitly 'norm_erosion_only' but at local scope with no actual policy implementation capacity. Civil rights driver scored 2.0 for symbolic normalization of mass deportation rhetoric, but severity multipliers reduce impact (0.73 combined). Mechanism modifier 0.6 reflects purely symbolic nature. Scope modifier 0.4 for local-only impact. Final A-score 2.32 well below threshold. B-score 24.23 driven by high outrage potential (7), strong mismatch between symbolic action and media attention (8), and moderate intentionality (7) suggesting coordinated political signaling. Pattern matches culture war positioning without substantive constitutional impact. Delta -21.91 indicates pure distraction play.
Monitor for actual policy implementation or enforcement mechanisms. Track if resolution leads to county-level cooperation with federal immigration enforcement that creates tangible civil rights impacts. Currently symbolic political theater.
