And I can’t wait for the left to become insanely apoplectic as a result.
I really liked Silent Coup - lots of documented detail.
The part about Woodward and Admiral Moorer working together to spy on the White House (for Haig??) had an interesting quote from Moorer. Something to the effect of “It is ludicrous - just unbelievable; to think that I would spy on the White House.”
Several years after I had read the book, Moorer was in one of the magazines (Newsweek??) about an article of him using his connections to create a military museum, but selling some of the items to foreign countries for profit.
His quote in the magazine used the exact wording that he had used in his interview used in Silent Coup.
“It is ludicrous - just unbelievable; to think that I would sell U.S. arms to foreign countries!”
Daniel Elsberg was a nuclear weapon designer working at Sandia Labs. Probably the W76 warhead.
The FBI found out he was loosing his mind and they were worried he would defect.
This is the real reason behind the break in and why the FBI knew so much of the details.
Nixon was taken out by the MSM for his re-supply of Israel after the ‘73 war. Watergate was just the justification.
And we would have had George McGovern as President, thanks to nit-pickers like you. Nixon assumed the presidency during a major war on the other side of the world (ask me how I know about that), huge and deadly multi-city race riots, a full-on Cold War with a daily threat of thermonuclear annihilation, the Arab Oil Embargo, a massively expensive "Space Race", the Arab-Israeli hot war, and Leftist/Democrat relentless subversion and demonstrations.
He dealt with all that and began the process of restabilizing the world.
Either you didn't live during that period, or you wore blinders back then.
He was ALWAYS going to beat MCGovern. McGovern was a terrible Canidate. Noting he was going to win big I would have voted for Shmidtz. I don’t vote for Liberals.
