🆕 Amid a worsening information ecosystem, how can local officials respond to emergencies while facing an unsupportive federal government? What are the implications for US military disaster relief and readiness when information manipulation threatens political cohesion and civilian communities?

Participants considered a hypothetical scenesetter imagining intersecting crises in 2030, briefly summarized below.

Florida faces intensifying heat, storms, and flooding, contributing to a housing cost and insurance crisis that has birthed a contentious campaign for a ballot initiative on housing affordability. A recent hurricane has caused widespread damage in Tampa Bay that the city is still recovering from. Russia extracted a settlement in Ukraine and is acting aggressively in the Baltics, while Cuba faces protests over an economic crisis and blackouts caused by a recent hurricane. The information ecosystem remains characterized by siloed social media discourse, a struggling journalism sector, and continued rapid LLM/chatbot development. With mid-term elections approaching that will decide the housing affordability proposal and possibly control of Congress, another intense hurricane devastates Cuba and Haiti and is landing in Miami. Civilian government agencies, the US military, Florida populations, online communities, and Russian, Cuban, and extremist propagandists begin responding.
