Many walking near the White House Friday noticed an incongruous sign at 17th and Penn: “President Nixon campaign headquarters.”
Turns out HBO’s White House Plumbers docuseries—which follows the story of the Nixon cronies behind Watergate—is filming in town and turned a portion of DC around the Eisenhower Executive Office Building into a recreation of 1972. Here’s what some people have seen over the past few days.

First the Monica and bill series and now Watergate.

Why can’t they let Watergate die? It was an overblown scandal to begin with.

Fanning the dead embers of the Nixon administration to cover the raging forest fire of the Biden regime.

There is also a show on called Fiasco, about Iran, Nicaragua and the Contras. They must think shows about the past will make people forget how bad it is at the moment.

Nixon covered for people who spied on his political opponents.
Obama and Biden used FBI agents to spy on their political opponents.
Obamagate was way worse than Watergate. But only the latter is considered a scandal.

The official version was an overblown scandal.
What actually happened is quite fascinating and is _not_ what the mass media said it was--if you want to read further:

Short version--the Deep State intervened in domestic politics and stabbed Nixon in the back.

Leave it to HBO to take an almost 50-year-old scandal that’s been rehashed a hundred times and where 90% of the principals are dead, and try to make more political hay out of it. The silly season is starting six months early this cycle. No American under the age of 40 probably even remembers who Nixon was anymore.
