Could this be why Nixon was removed? I read some were trying to get him an extra term in office, but he'd had enough of being a puppet and engineered Watergate. All very interesting.
I would think that could have been one of the major reasons he was removed from office...especially since there were illegal operations going on in the intelligence community and later the bioweapons programs were reinstated. A lot of power and money in those military operations....you don't mess with the military industrial complex....
I had always heard Nixon was a stand up guy...paranoid and rough around the edges perhaps...but otherwise that is probably true...he just crossed the wrong people.
There was a Tucker segment which suggested that Nixon got overthrown by the CIA because he threatened to reveal the CIA's involvement in JFK's assassination. Nixon's VP Agnew also got axed so they could set up Gerald Ford as president. Ford served on the Warren Commission which covered up the JFK assassination. It was also believed that Nixon, like Kennedy, had a deep distrust of the intelligence agencies and wanted to tear them down.
Wasn't Poppy Bush head of the CIA at that time? Think I saw a photo of him with arms folded standing outside the book depository on the day of the shooting. Interesting to know Ford was on the Warren commission, thanks. All connected...
