The Sisyphean Struggle of American Politics

As we dive into the 2024 presidential election year, never before have I been so happy to be in one. 2023 was a rocky year, to say the least. It began with an unbelievable U.S. House Speaker election process for a position held for only nine months. Then, we experienced an appalling case of political malfeasance (think junior senator from Kentucky) that has jeopardized the future of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) program. The year ended with heightened strains on the supply chain once again, attributed to pirates on the Red Sea and droughts in the Panama Canal.
