Weekly civic intelligence report · v2.2
Uganda agreed to accept deported migrants from the US who do not have criminal records. The agreement facilitates Trump's mass deportation agenda.
This is a diplomatic agreement facilitating deportation policy with moderate constitutional implications but high distraction value. A-score: rule_of_law (2) for enforcement action framework, civil_rights (2) for impacts on migrant populations. Enforcement_action mechanism adds 15%, international scope adds 10%, severity modestly elevated for durability/precedent of bilateral agreement. Final A=6.16. B-score: Layer 1 high on novelty (unusual third-country arrangement), media_friendliness (simple narrative), outrage_bait (immigration hot-button). Layer 2 strong on mismatch (diverts from domestic constitutional issues), narrative_pivot (shifts focus to international cooperation), pattern_match (fits mass deportation storyline). Intentionality moderate-high (8) as this is deliberate policy announcement supporting stated agenda. Final B=28.09. Delta=-21.93 clearly indicates List B classification as strategic distraction with minimal constitutional damage.
Monitor whether this agreement becomes operational template for other countries, track actual deportation numbers versus announcement hype, and assess whether focus on third-country arrangements diverts attention from due process concerns in domestic deportation proceedings.
