The Chicago Council on Global Affairs posted in January a 2023 public opinion survey that showed that "Americans are far more concerned about threats within the United States, like weakening democracy and political polarization, than they are about threats outside of the country, like terrorism and the nuclear programs of other countries."

Important to note that the idea of the “rule of law” has its basis from the Greeks and more recently, in 1215 when the Magna Carta was signed; not even the king was above the law. And yet here we are today…. And how many senior leaders behave as if they are. An age old problem. I do agree that if we don’t abide, we will no longer be “the land of the free and home of the brave.” I include “the brave” as it takes courage to hold people accountable…

P.S. This summer our family trip will include Salisbury, UK. One of the homes of the Magna Carta. As an aspiring lawyer, my daughter wants to pay homage!
