Sort of off topic but this reminds me of a Hunter S Thompson quote I read yesterday about the Nixon administration
"Meanwhile, the Vice president of the United States has been lashed out of office and disbarred in his home state of Maryland, the president himself is teetering on the bring of a Burglary/Conspiracy indictment that will mean certain impeachment, and the whole structure of our government has become a stagnant mockery of itself and everybody who ever had faith in it"

- xrd 1y agoThis seems to point to collusion between Nixon and CIA for a lot of criminality. Or, is this inaccurate history? https://www.thehistoryreader.com/military-history/nixons-bay-pigs-secrets/ https://www.thehistoryreader.com/military-history/nixons-bay... If you are saying Nixon was a victim of CIA troublemaking, then you should point out which faction of the CIA you mean.
