Undercovered High-Damage
Week 77: Jun 14 – Jun 20, 2026 · 🟢 LIVE
These are events where constitutional damage (Damage score) far exceeds the media attention they receive (Hype score). An Attention Budget below −15 means the event is getting less coverage than its real-world impact warrants — the public should know more about these.
Monitor federal court dockets for emergency injunction filings and track which states/counties are affected by implementation attempts before upcoming elections.
Monitor DOJ announcements of election-related prosecutions in swing states/districts over the next 6 months, noting timing relative to candidate filing deadlines and primary dates—pattern clustering would confirm weaponization concerns.
Monitor McDonald's first 90 days for case dismissals, declinations to prosecute, or personnel changes in ongoing investigations involving Trump Organization, associates, or political allies—SDNY's independence is a critical check on executive corruption.
Track whether the new US Attorney for SDNY (James McDonald, appointed same week) reverses other foreign corruption cases, and monitor any Trump business dealings with Turkish entities.
