By now, those of you who are regular readers of this blog, are aware of my persistent plea that individuals and agencies, who have failed Americans for one reason or another, be held accountable.
In 2022 alone, I devoted four editions to the subject of accountability, beginning with “Accountability: So Easy to Understand, So Difficult to Secure,” on March 21, 2022, and ending on December 12, 2022 with “The Politicization of Justice Won’t Result in True Accountability.”… read more

Can a stack of papers next to my computer keyboard stare at me? I often get that feeling. You may have heard someone mention that while referring to their “to do” list staring them in the face.

Selecting a man or woman of the year and reviewing the year just passed is old hat and I don’t intend to waste space here with it. I just have a few items I found both interesting and humorous that I want to share with you.
