July 12, 1974 - John Ehrlichman, former top aide to President Richard Nixon, and three others were convicted of conspiring to violate a citizen’s civil rights. Ehrlichman had approved a recommendation for a covert investigation of Daniel Ellsberg in 1971 by writing on a memo: "If done under your assurance that it is not traceable." Looking for information to discredit Ellsberg, agents of President Nixon’s re-election campaign broke into the office of his psychiatrist.
Ellsberg, a former Defense Deptartment analyst, had been responsible for public release of The Pentagon Papers, a collection of documents outlining the U.S. history and strategy in Vietnam, that had been classified as secret to avoid public scrutiny.

"'I believe Mr Nixon knew all along': The tragic story of Martha Mitchell - the Watergate whistleblower who was ridiculed
(. . .)
Years after her death, Harvard psychologist Brendan Maher used her name to describe a psychological phenomenon: the Martha Mitchell effect, wherein a patient's outlandish but real experiences are misdiagnosed as delusions. But it wasn't until recently that the significance of her Watergate interventions, erratic and self-interested though they sometimes were, started to be properly acknowledged.
She became known as the most outspoken and indiscreet of the Nixon cabinet wives, telling a TV reporter in November 1969 that anti-Vietnam war protests reminded her husband of the Russian Revolution
In 1977, Richard Nixon had told David Frost that 'if it hadn't been for Martha Mitchell, there'd have been no Watergate'. He meant that her unpredictable behaviour had caused his close ally John Mitchell to take his eye off the ball. In reality, she came close to exposing the entire criminal enterprise before a cover up could even begin."

I could not agree more!
I found more photos from that event: https://historycollection.com/26-photographs-americas-1976-bicentennial-celebration/
It was good to scroll thru them.
I was about five years older than the kid at the top of this photo. You can tell that they were glad to be part of a whole. And it was a hopeful time... we were getting our act together. We were righting wrongs. For context, these are the things that were on my mind at that time...
The first #Oil #Crisis 🛢️
#Watergate 🕵️
#Racism and the #CivilRights Movement ✊🏾
The #VietnamWar (I was subject to the draft.) 🪖
The #ColdWar with its attendant #Nuclear Dread 🤯My friends and I were particularly concerned about protecting the #Environment 🌲 , tried to avoid cars, and rode our #bicycles everywhere. 🚴
So what about the #Semiquincentennial? Let's say it's a celebration deferred. We need to get our act together, we need to right some wrongs, we need to start feeling AND acting like a whole again.
We've made a start, we can do it, and when we're on the right track again I'll be there with you all to celebrate! 💕 🇺🇸

I think America needed the Bicentennial for a lot of reasons -- #Watergate, the failure of the Vietnam War, the lingering economic effects of the Oil Embargo. But the manic drive to celebrate had at least something to do with a hoped-for end to social unrest.

The #DeepState didn’t take down #Nixon.
So why did #JDVance say it did?
Nixon’s #Crimes, the #Courts, #Congress & the #FreePress drove #Watergate.

I WISH i HAD CAUGHT THIS SOONER...
We all heard #JV try to downplay the seriousness of #Watergate last week, but Jen made the case Friday that Vance "inadvertently" pointed out that #Felon47 commits Impeachment-level crimes that make Watergate look like "a 12-hour news story" on a regular basis.
(BTW: #CouchFker has no clue what he's talking about and I doubt even knows what Watergate was all about.)
