We know that the Washington Post and the New York Times (odd that axis again, isn't it?) were all about getting Nixon.
Nixon was Eisenhower's VP, and Eisenhower, as you know, warned of the "Military Industrial Complex." (Really the Government Industrial complex as he clarifies later in his speech.)
So we see them today pulling the exact same sh*t on Trump. Make up a fake scandal, use their news liar assets to spread the false claim, and attempt to stage a coup against a lawful president.
Some weeks back there was an article on Free Republic where one of Nixon's lawyers explained what was going on. I think I may have pointed it out to people at the time, but it was the corrupt deep state that deliberately set Nixon up.
The Military Industrial complex stood to make a lot of money, you know, kinda like routing *ALL* Southern export trade through New York, and so if Nixon made peace with China, that might disrupt the cash flow.
If we have peace, then why do we need all those expensive weapon systems that the rich elite in the Northeast produce?
Our system is corrupt. It has been corrupt for a very long time. This vaccine crap is another example of how corrupt the system is.
You just don't want to believe it was corrupt going all the way back to the 1850s.
It was corrupt, going back that far, and probably further.
But who are "them" or "they"? The CIA? Rich New York Bankers? You see your problem: you are assuming a constant unchanging "they", when in fact groups are always changing and reforming. The big newspapers hated Nixon, but it's unlikely that either the CIA or New York bankers wanted him removed. But you immediately jump to your usual assumption with no evidence whatsoever.

Nixon did make peace of sorts with China. That didn't cut defense budgets. What did cut defense budgets was the swing to the Democrats after Nixon had to leave office. Intelligent members of the military industrial complex would generally have supported Nixon because they recognized what the Democrats would do.

Much of the defense industry was in the West. Some was in the South. I don't see any indication that Northeastern money men were more involved in defense industry than Los Angeles or Seattle or Houston or Atlanta money men were.
But you don't care. You just keep coming back with your big idea whether it's relevant or not.
