Further clarification...

Via Rodger Sherman 🤖 @rodger

The most likely explanation for Namath being on Nixon’s political enemies list is that he was yelling about football one day and a paranoid White House employee added him to the list without realizing it was just a football thing

Maybe Nixon thinking the the pantyhose commercials were corrupting the nation's youth?

Via Rodger Sherman 🤖 @rodger

Today I learned that somebody put Joe Namath on Richard Nixon’s master list of political enemies and unlike the other 219 people on the list nobody ever figured out why

@richard_merren @Strandjunker Maybe I'm being too cynical, but I believe many more Presidents of the US ought to have been prosecuted than has been the case. Dodgy finances, sexual improprieties, questionable electoral practices: they haven't been saints.

was elected to the White House after all.

31 years ago this week, POTUS Richard Nixon resigned from office, sparing his country from an internal rift and public humiliation associated with judicial procedures against a head of state.

השבוע לפני 31 שנים, נשיא ארה"ב ריצ'ארד ניקסון פרש מתפקידו וחסך מהאומה האמריקאית את הקרע הפנימי וההשפלה הציבורית שבהליך משפטי כנגד ראש מדינה.

‘s pardon of is not a precedent that Americans should pay heed to.

First, it was morally wrong.

Second, he was never elected .

When he ran as a Presidential candidate, American 🇺🇸 voters chose a peanut farmer from Georgia over someone who was a ‘fixer’ for a crook. 🤷🏻‍♂️ And it wasn’t even close!

In a Presidency not that far away …

A half century, 2 Impeachments, 4 indictments and 78 charges apart.

What an odd find today.

This is a pin from Richard Nixon’s 1960 presidential campaign, when he ran with Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.; an election they did NOT win, losing to John F Kennedy by only about 118k votes.
I fancy myself an expert on Watergate; every in & out, nook & cranny. I’ve been obsessed with it, & that asshole Nixon, since the first time I saw All The President’s Men as a kid.
Got lots of odd Nixon records & 45s, too. I should pull them out soon.
