Ignore the tax refund debate noise. Focus instead on this week's mail-in voting executive order restrictions and the halted investigation into deportation flights - both involve actual institutional mechanisms affecting rights.
This is routine fact-checking of economic claims with zero constitutional impact - no institutional lever, no governance mechanism, purely informational. The B-score of 48 reflects high media-volume mismatch (extensive coverage of a minor statistical dispute) and strong timing overlap with substantive events like Iran blockade and voting restrictions. However, this qualifies as noise: it's a predictable claim-counterclaim cycle generating coverage without governance substance.
