some of the speaks different about richard nixon. the waters a bit and enables us to see the phenomenon of nixon hating part in a more complicated life in the realm of foreign policy after all is the realm weren't nixon would seem to be on his strongest footing. with the many champions point out he achieved great accomplishments include the opening of china and the superpowers with the soviet union. what are consistently in all of the boldness of vision and risk-taking they embodied but also the dedication to peacemaking they seem to imply. and yet nixon hating us powerfully over the years by uglier developments in the international arena print in vietnam for example, dixon is often claimed to carry on the war for four years longer than it really had to be carried on at an enormous human cost only to achieve basically the same peace deal that was achievable when he first came to office in 1969. nixon's expansion opens an entirely new theater of horse elsewhere nixon through american support for double down on american relationships wi

and as with so much in modern american political life, the threads really go back to richard nixon in the summer of 1973 with congressional increase into the watergate scandal really heating up the former deputy chief of staff alexander butterfield testified before the senate watergate committee and revealed that president nixon did indeed have listening devices set up in the white house. he had them in the oval office, but he also had them in the cabinet room in his office next door the executive office building the eisenhower executive office building. he also had them in the residential quarters at the white house as well as at camp david. so this is an extraordinary rich and voluminous trove of presidential materials that that the watergate investigators wanted to get their hands on nixon stonewalled. turning them over he at first. said that he would provide his own summaries of these and then transcripts of these and then and then hand them over that wasn't good enough for the senate committee. nor was it good enough for the independent council that was looking into these matters

with richard nixon's resignation again, the book comes out in june 74. two months later nixon has resigned so it is a centerpiece of the conversation. the book is a centerpiece of the conversation. as watergate is hitting its climax. and even more popular than the book. is the cinematic version of all the president's men? the cinematic version it came out in april of 1976. to rave reviews to rave reviews it was a critical and commercial success. all the president's men and far more people have seen the movie. then i've read the book. then the third factor perhaps is important is the other two was this year's long guessing game? about the identity of a super secret source that woodward had a high-level government source with whom he met periodically in 1972 in 1973. the source had the code name deep throat. who was deep throat? became a parlor game an unending parlor game in effect in washington, dc. for many years so let's take a look at each of these factors very briefly. all the president's been. runaway success. it was serialized in playboy before it c

those tapes revealed richard nixon's involvement in federal crimes. richard nixon then resigned the presidency and a month later was pardoned by his chosen vice president who had become president gerald ford. that pardon saved richard nixon from becoming the first former president of the united states to be charged with a crime and tonight that historical achievement of being the first former president of the united states to be charged with a crime seems ever more likely to become an entry into donald trump's resume. judge john sirica was appointed to the federal bench by republican president dwight eisenhower and he took down the next republican president richard next in. nixon. donald trump's john circuit was also appointed by republican president, ronald reagan. judge raymond erie, who is now serving as a special master in the case of donald j trump versus united states of america became the special master in the case because donald trump's owner suggested his name to the judge handling the case in florida asking her to a a point i raymond dearie

and she asked richard nixon to make sure that the war would never happen again nixon was so deeply movedvisiting the market, he canceled an evening trip to the theater, ordered himself a russian dinner, a glass of vodka, and spent the evening in lonely reflections. after the fifth round, we have 300 20,000 rubles in the bank. it could have been better if you had inflicted such a shame on the first three questions, but all the same, you always repeat this unclosed gestalt, i will perceive these three as a compliment, these 320,000 rubles. we will play in finale in just a few minutes. it's five for one, don't switch. all the most interesting is ahead. come on, all together, the long-awaited new season took the top notes and fell to her knees, we look all together on friday at 21:30 against muscle and joint pain, it contains the highest dosage of a substance for inflammation pain and a special component for better penetration in ochakovo was created for fight pain, inflammation in muscles and joints large package at a bargain price surprises as a gift for purchases. the envelope has already

but first, as senators, we had to go down and tell richard nixon that contrast that, if you would, with the experience that we've seen most recently with president trump and his two impeachment trials, one of which you you presided over. how would you compare and contrast that with the nixon experience? oh, it's night and day. i know a number. senators have told me. yes, he's guilty, but he's not going to be convicted. so i'm not going to vote for his conviction because i'm up the next year or the next time or whatever. i shouldn't be the case. those who were before the january six insurrection are strongly supportive. they just try to do a quiet support. and so as not to get his anger. but they're willing to not do what they thought was right. and the. i quote and our parliamentarian who said you you all your vigilance and your duty to help your constituents but your conscience is your home and you don't all that anybody else. i've always found it holds your conscience. you might catch a lot of grief from one side or the other, but do it. one of the things that some people have, some s

richard nixon has looked at times like a choir boy vis-a-vis donald trump.o i don't know why they're out. they're juston down as they compare him and pull him into the trump orbit. there is very little similarity in a sense between what trump has done perpetually, through incompetence, through his own mentality, that really different from watergate. watergate was quick, nixon did ultimately accept the rule of law. we don't know what trump's going to do, yet. it's still a mystery story. >> you know, john, i thought it was interesting that yesterday, democratic congressman adam schiff said to jake tapper that he thinks that if there is a criminal referral from this committee to the justice department, which is an area they've been divided on in the past, he thinks it should be unanimous, and he said, my recommendation is that we should make referrals, but, you know, we should do it at basically as a team here. sort of all on the same page. and i wonder if you agree with that. >> well, referrals are a big deal in congress. they're not a big deal at the departme
