Hi!
Thank you in advance for helping me with my assignment.
Here are my Professor’s instructions:
On March 11, 2024, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence published the 2024 Annual Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community. This report (required annually by federal law) summarizes the various threats to our national security. The Annual Threat Assessment is comprehensive and has a worldwide scope, but some of the threats are likely relevant to local police agencies throughout the nation. A link through which you may download this report is below.
Assume you are an intelligence analyst working for a large consortium of local and county police agencies throughout the State of Texas. The consortium’s board of directors (composed of local chiefs of police and county sheriffs) has reviewed the 2024 National Threat Assessment. They conclude it is not possible for their member agencies to be fully prepared for all of these threats. They have neither the time nor the resources to be completely prepared. They also realize that many of the threats in the Assessment are beyond the scope of their local agency responsibilities (e.g. Chinese economic aggression). So, they have asked you to review the report and select the single threat that is most relevant (i.e. most likely to happen) to local communities in Texas. Your assignment is to;
select the single most relevant threat, and
write a report containing an argument that supports your selection.
Your report should include evidence from either the scholarly literature (research), government documents, or other independent sources that supports your recommendation that this is the most relevant threat to their agencies. These sources must be used and cited (attributed) within the text of your report. These sources must also be listed in a bibliography at the end of your report. Use the citation protocol from the American Psychological Association.
Your report should be from 2.000 to 4,000 words long, not including the bibliography.
