Tick‑Tock Gap in Presidencies

The article flags an accountability problem: unlike prior administrations, the Biden White House lacks a public, journalistic 'tick‑tock' record of who made key decisions. That opacity — an absence of granular timelines, memos, and decision authorship — prevents the public and historians from assessing responsibility, competence, and whether political decisions were driven by ideology, staff operatives, or the president himself. — If modern presidencies routinely operate without public tick‑tock reporting, democratic oversight and historical accountability weaken; demanding systematic timelines and attribution for major policy choices should become a transparency norm.
