        Richard "I am not a crook" Nixon thought he was above the law, too.

        That is a very sad statement because it’s true. And to make matters worse Trump has many supporters that think all of his ethical and constitutional violations are perfectly acceptable.

        Silly Nixon. Evidently if he'd just done it on national tv, he would've gotten away with it.

        Was that the meeting where Haldeman told Dick Helms that further investigation could lead to blowing the lid off "the whole Bay of Pigs thing"? Which Haldeman later said was code for the JFK assassination. In other words, a veiled threat to expose Agency involvement in Dallas.

        You got me there, Greg. I don't recall and everyone at the bar here is sorta channelling Ted Kennedy, on a night out with Chris Dodd.

        Trump told Pompeo, when Pompeo was head of CIA, “Use CIA to block FBI Russia Investigation.”

        We don't have congressional oversight on Trump or I believe he would of gone. Repubs in congress are complicit and enablers of what is becoming fascism in our country.

        are you suggesting the FBI is not currently being caught red handed in an effort to oust a duly elected president?
