Summary

Former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb claims Pam Bondi will remain in position despite power struggle rumors. Represents conflicting signals about administration personnel.

Why This Score

This event scores low on constitutional damage (4.67) as it involves personnel speculation without concrete institutional impact. The information_operation mechanism provides modest uplift but the narrow population scope and lack of actual policy/structural change limit A-score. However, B-score is high (35.48) due to classic distraction patterns: former insider (Ty Cobb) making reassuring claims that contradict power struggle reporting, high media friendliness of palace intrigue narrative, strong mismatch between claimed stability and rumored chaos, and clear pattern of preemptive denial. The intentionality indicators (9/15) suggest coordinated messaging to shape narrative. D-score of -30.81 clearly places this on List B as strategic distraction from substantive issues.
