Investigation of Bolton (former NSA, Trump critic) triggers rule_of_law concerns (3.5) around weaponized enforcement and capture dynamics (2.5) of justice apparatus for political ends. Election interference potential (2.5) if targeting dissent. Enforcement_action mechanism adds +15% modifier. However, narrow scope (single individual, federal level) limits constitutional damage to 17.8. B-score dominates at 27.9: high outrage_bait (7.5) and media_friendliness (8.0) for 'retribution' narrative, strong pattern_match (8.0) to broader revenge-politics storyline. Intentionality moderate (9/15) with explicit retribution framing in headline creating justice-vs-revenge false binary. D-score of -10.1 indicates clear List B classification: hype substantially exceeds constitutional substance.
