After the firing of FBI Director Archibald Cox, the Saturday Night Massacre occurred.
At that point,
it took all Americans from every walk of life and political view to make a conscience decision of what was right and what was wrong.

Re-reading that history recently, I wonder if Archibald Cox could have refused to leave, claiming the order was unlawful due to conflict of interest and that it itself was a crime (obstruction of justice), and fought that out in court. I suspect the Court would have agreed w Cox
