Briefings
A federal intelligence center issued a July 2026 warning to California police advising them to monitor city council meetings regarding the Flock surveillance program for signs of suspicious activity, including emotional confrontations and potential disruptions. The warning notes that while no specific credible threats were found, organizers may face increased public pressure due to the Los Angeles Police Department ending its Flock contract. Key risks cited include large turnout exceeding room capacity, verbal conflicts, and minor physical altercations, though the bulletin explicitly states no evidence of extremist involvement or targeted threats exists.

Context

This follows the LAPD ending its Flock contract, which the OCIAC warns may embolden organizers and increase turnout pressure on city council members.
Limitations

The bulletin does not provide specific dates for the Flock contract ending or the exact number of attendees expected at upcoming meetings.
