Nixon was a political takedown, not a disgrace.
Oh, blow it out your ear, Ivan!
He signed the instruction that made foreign aid dependent on participating in birth control programs and forbade the build-up of infrastructure that could have made third world countries self-sufficient.
He was warned that if those countries developed and grew, they would seek benefit of their own natural resources, and we would no longer be able to exploit them.
“I think pardoning Nixon was the right thing to do”
I would have preferred Nixon being jailed since he did more to advance the Leftist agenda than any other president, before or after. But I agree that Watergate was vastly overblown.
One would think that perhaps the Republicans would learn something - that the Democrats are NEVER going to protect a Republican, when they smell blood - no matter how much the Republican tries to placate them.
Pardoning Nixon OK. Pardoning the draft dodgers for political cover, at the same time, who fled to Canada and overseas. Not OK.
What is it about putting hyphens in word descriptions of numbers? You don’t need any hyphens to say two and a half miles or two and a half cups, so why do they say two-and-a-half-years? At that I refuse to read further. I don’t care what his opinion of Gerald Ford was.
I think pardoning Nixon was the right thing to do
Watch Tucker Carlson’s piece on Richard Nixon. Set up by the CIA. Deep Throat was CIA. The people doing the Breakin, CIA. The CIA didn’t like Nixon, he wanted out of Vietnam. They obviously took him out. Ford was ‘the only choice’ Nixon was given for VP.
I wonder how much about the CIA’s connection to JFK and Nixon would have been made public if he had been prosecuted? I suspect it was part of the ‘operation’ to pardon Nixon and prevent potential connections to the CIA interference into the political system.
I am sure glad the intelligence services would NEVER to the same kind of political interference again....... ROFLOL
Ford and Nixon was where the MSM discovered they could influence voters with constant negative press.
Nixon was targeted for his Israeli airlift resupply after the ‘73 war.
Israel would have collapsed without it.
Watergate was a fabrication as Nixon and his staff correctly identified Daniel Elsberg as a possible leak of nuclear secrets to the Soviets.
He was an employee at Sandia Labs in weapons design.
Ford was a WW2 war hero who saved his ship during Halsey’s Typhoon.
The MSM wanted him out too so they attacked him for being stupid and clumsy.
They then used the same game plan on Reagan, Bush41, Bush43, Trump and they will keep doing it unless they are stopped.
I have no doubts a President Harris would grant the same pardon for Biden.
