Florida: A fence-jumper was reported at Mar-a-Lago overnight, with one individual immediately being arrested by authorities.

AC: This doesn't appear to be anything more than a mentally ill individual hopping a fence, however because these attacks are expressly so disarming in nature, this could also be more of a probing attack to test defenses for future targeting efforts. Considering the current threat environment, little incidents like this are certainly something to be aware of, just in case.

Minnesota: The situation throughout the Twin Cities remains tenuous following multiple raids by federal agencies over the past few days. Operation SAFE SUMMER is a large-scale effort to crack down on criminal enterprises within the Minneapolis area, and has resulted in several high-profile raids of businesses linked to narcotics trafficking.

Analyst Comments: In Minneapolis the resistance to raids has been elevated compared to other areas. Considering Minneapolis' political leadership granting "sanctuary" status to the city, this area has become a hotbed for everything from general crime, to more advanced Cartel operations. It is this latter activity that has been targeted by the raids; the feds are not necessarily going after illegals specifically this time, these raids are more about dismantling high-level criminal endeavors. Nevertheless, local outrage has been common from both Cartel members and activists alike, with substantial intelligence collection efforts being undertaken to alert locals to raids before they happen. Several NGOs have set up mapping efforts to alert criminals to the presence of ICE in their area.
