Richard Milhouse Nixon

Tricky Dicky's ultimate crime was confirming the suspicions of an entire generation of fuckoffs that they, in fact, were the chosen people of their place and time. The results may be seen in the merciless attacks on the human spirit masquerading as '60s nostalgia, ridiculous cam girls indulging in astrology, and the otherwise unexplained persistence of adulation for Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Made two visits to China to meet Mao. Appointed Elvis a secret special agent of some sort.

According to convicted Watergate criminal John W. Dean, Nixon wanted to firebomb the Brookings Institute think tank, because they had possession of certain unspecified, but apparently important documents. Yes, firebomb.

Pardoned Jimmy Hoffa on December 23, 1971.

As chairman of the RNC, it was George HW Bush's job to tell Nixon to resign.

June 1971

NIXON:	They have a lot of material. I want—the way I want that handled, Bob, is: get it over. I want Brooking. Just break in. Break in and take it out. You understand.
HALDEMAN:	Yeah. But you have to get somebody to do it.
NIXON:	Well, you—that’s what I’m just telling you. Now don’t discuss it here. You’re to break into the place, rifle the files, and bring them out.
HALDEMAN:	I don’t have any problem with breaking in.
NIXON:	Just go in and take them. Go in around 8 or 9 o’clock. That’s right. You go in and inspect and clean it out.

July 5, 1971: Nixon, Haldeman, and Ziegler, 4:03 P.M., Oval Office Conversation #537-4; cassette #876

NIXON:	Jewish families are close, but there's this strange malignancy that seems to creep among them—radicalism. I can imagine how the fact that Ellsberg is in this must really tear a fella like Henry to pieces—or Garment. Just like the Rosenbergs and all that. It just has to kill them. I feel horrible about it.
ZIEGLER:	Could make up an English name.
HALDEMAN:	... Rosenstein could change his name. ...
	[general laughter]
ZIEGLER:	It is right. It's always an "Ellsberg."
NIXON:	Every one's a Jew. Ellsberg's a Jew. Halperin's a Jew.
HALDEMAN:	Gelb's a Jew.
NIXON:	But there are [unclear]—Hiss was not a Jew. Very interesting thing. So few of those who engage in espionage—are Negroes. ... In fact, very few of them become Communists. If they do, they like, they get into Angela Davis—they're more the capitalist type. And they throw bombs and this and that. But the Negroes.—have you ever noticed? ... Any Negro spies?
HALDEMAN:	Not intellectual enough, not smart enough... not smart enough to be spies.
NIXON:	The Jews—the Jews are, are born spies. You notice how many of them are just in up to their necks?
HALDEMAN:	A basic deviousness.

Talking to White House Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman at Camp David in August 1972:

NIXON:	Reagan is not one that wears well.
HALDEMAN:	I know.
NIXON:	On a personal basis, Rockefeller is a pretty nice guy. Reagan, on a personal basis, is terrible. He just isn't pleasant to be around.
HALDEMAN:	No, he isn't.
NIXON:	Maybe he's different with others.
HALDEMAN:	No.
NIXON:	No, he's just an uncomfortable man to be around. Strange.

I want them to use the big planes, the small planes, everything they can that will help out there[...] Right now there is a chance to win this goddamn war, and that's probably what we are going to have to do because we are not going to do anything at the conference table."
21 Dec 1970	President Richard M. Nixon receives Elvis Presley in the Oval Office of the White House.
13 May 1971	President Richard Nixon describes the ideal candidate for IRS commissioner: "I want to be sure he is a ruthless son of a bitch, that he will do what he's told, that every income tax return I want to see I see, that he will go after our enemies and not go after our friends."
13 May 1971	President Richard Nixon: "I don't want to see this country to go that way. You know what happened to the Greeks. Homosexuality destroyed them. Sure, Aristotle was a homo, we all know that, so was Socrates. [...] Do you know what happened to the Romans? The last six Roman emperors were fags. [...] You know what happened to the popes? It's all right that popes were laying the nuns. That's been going on for years—centuries. But when the popes, when the Catholic Church went to hell in—I don't know, three or four centuries ago—it was homosexual, and it had to be cleaned out. Now, that's what happened to Britain; it happened earlier to France."
13 May 1971	President Richard Nixon: "We're going to [put] more of these little Negro bastards on the welfare rolls at $2,400 a family—let people like Pat Moynihan ... believe in all that crap. But I don’t believe in it. Work, work—throw 'em off the rolls. That's the key. ... I have the greatest affection for them [blacks], but I know they're not going to make it for 500 years. They aren't. You know it, too. The Mexicans are a different cup of tea. They have a heritage. At the present time they steal, they're dishonest, but they do have some concept of family life. They don't live like a bunch of dogs, which the Negroes do live like."
13 May 1971	President Richard Nixon: "You see: homosexuality, dope, immorality in general—these are the enemies of strong societies. That's why the Communists and the left-wingers are pushing the stuff; they're trying to destroy us."

26 May 1971	President Richard Nixon observes: "You know, it's a funny thing, every one of the bastards that are out for legalizing marijuana is Jewish. What the Christ is the matter with the Jews, Bob? What is the matter with them? I suppose it is because most of them are psychiatrists."
13 Sep 1971	President Richard Nixon tells Bob Haldeman: "Now here's the point, Bob. Please get the names of the Jews. You know, the big Jewish contributors to the Democrats. Could you please investigate some of the cocksuckers? That's all."
