Corrections:
- I can't make heads or tails of what you are saying. ("Heads"; "Tails" will always be plural in this phrase. "Nor" is technically correct but "or" sounds a bit more natural)
- (Perfect)
- The managers deliberately obscured the real situation from the federal investigator. (Great, but make sure to remember "the"!)
- (Perfect)
- I am incapable of assessing (?) what's happening. (Somewhat unclear on what "looking on" means, but I added a word that might be more appropriate)
