When political figures attack previous administrations during active controversies, immediately ask: what current governance action is happening right now that deserves scrutiny?
Pure information operation with zero governance mechanism or constitutional impact—routine political attacks on a former administration. High distraction score driven by timing overlap with substantive governance events (compensation fund, IRS actions, diplomatic purge) and classic playbook pattern of deflecting current accountability by attacking predecessors. Strong intentionality signals with 11/15 score.
