Tucker Carlson and Geoff Shepard interview (watergate scandal)

[alex24]

Just finished the interview. Fascinating how corrupt the government bureaucrats are and how long it’s been that way. Geoff was a young attorney who was a staffer for Nixon. He is who translated the “smoking gun tape” at the time he believed Nixon was guilty. Only to discover that Nixon wasn’t even talking about Watergate and was actually talking about protecting 2 large donors that were Democrats. But the whole thing ended up being a scam that took the President with the most popular vote ever out of office. They only went after republicans and overlooked any wrong doing by democrats. Over 60 attorneys were hired by special counsel to investigate and try to tie Nixon to the break in. One of those 60 attorneys young Hilary Rodham. Who played a key roll in covering some things up. They are going to release a documentary soon showing the evidence of the coup

IF the FBI or law enforcement did their job there wouldn't be any politicians left in office.

I listened as well and need to relisten to glean all of the info presented, and all of the names involved in all of it. It really was a huge nothing burger crime wise, literally a breaking and entering. Nixon was so far ahead in the election that garnering any strategy info from the DNC was completely unnecessary, Gordon Liddy was on a power trip to prove his worth and along with a couple of guys former CIA guys from the re-election committee, planned the break in during the campaign. All involved in the break in except Liddy were CIA, and the CIA orchestrated the break in plan. The 5 Cubans brought up from Miami were all CIA operatives.

Another wild theory says the real reason for the break-in was actually to get a photo of White House Counsel John Dean's girlfriend removed from a book in the DNC office. The CIA had been running a honey trap in the apartment bldg next door to Watergate to catch foreign diplomats in 'compromising situations' with beautiful women (obviously for blackmailing purposes). Long story short, there was a book with the women's photos and a number assigned to each. The 'john' would come in and look through the book and pick a girl, and her number would be called to come and accompany the gentleman to the predetermined location. Well it turns out Dean's girlfriend was the roomate of the 'madame' running the op for the CIA, and her photo was in the book (this madame was maid of honor in Dean's wedding). The book was located in a locked desk drawer, and DNC field operatives would also come in looking for a good time. So one of the Cubans had the desk key taped to his notebook and tried to swallow it when he was arrested. This is supposedly why John Dean ran the cover up from inside the WH, completely unknown by Nixon.

Thanks for the heads up. Just downloaded it for my next drive.

CIA is a corrupt bunch. Funny how probably some of the worst allegations against them are against the people
Who now most readily give them a free pass.

So you run your mouth a lot. Just curious what your knowledge is of the watergate scandal?

Not a lot. I run my mouth all the time. You're welcome to try and do something about I suppose.

I'm not getting into a discussion about Watergate with someone who thinks Roger Stone's latest conspiracy theory about his personal hero, Nixon, is anywhere grounded on earth. Sorry.
