SERIES 3 EPISODE 21: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN                            ALL-TIME SERIES EPISODE 500 A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: "Follow the money," said Deep Throat about Watergate. Except he didn't.. My friend, the screenwriter of "All The President's Men," Bill Goldman - HE said it. Because they paid him to. The real "Deep Throat," Deputy FBI Director Mark Felt, never said anything like it. Goldman added he threw it in because it sounded more memorable. And it was. Now everybody remembers it as having happened, when it didn't. Which is kind of the point about what Mark Felt's institutional descendants at the Department of Justice did yesterday about Stooge-Gate: In their indictment of two Russian propagandists THEY never say the Tennessee company through which they funneled money into the American right wing echo chamber is called Tenet Media and THEY never say that Tenet Media was founded by Lauren Chen who also happens to work for Glenn Beck and Blaze-TV and THEY never say that Tenet Media's YouTube channel got ten million dollars from Putin's propaganda arm, R-T, to grow and distribute videos about how America started the Russian war in Ukraine, and how it was all Biden's fault, and vote Trump or die, and how America shouldn't get trapped in forever wars and how terrorists were coming into the country across the southern border. And they didn't say that through Tenet the Russians washed large sums of money to scumbags like Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Dave Rubin, and others to unwittingly do Putin's work for him. Some of those folks say they're unwitting victims. I actually believe it. Because if there was an Unwitting Fantasy League, Jesse Watters would be my first choice but I'd certainly be satisfied if I could get Pool or Johnson or Rubin. My question is: Russia only had a handful of stooges here? I doubt that. TRUMP GOES SILENT ON ARLINGTON: Possibly after reading polling showing that his standing with veterans, active service members, and their families is vanishing - he's in a virtual dead heat with Vice President Harris among the families. AND THE RATS ARE LEAVING THE SINKING SHIP and boasting about it to Politico. Eighteen paragraphs about Republicans who are preparing a bunch of different songs to whistle past a bunch of different graveyards, but the lyrics are identical: we WANT Trump to lose, it's the GOP's only chance! B-Block (25:22) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Mark Robinson allegedly owed the porn guy money, and then his wife owed the Girl Scouts money! The "Tim Walz Family Hates Tim Walz" campaign falls flat when it turns out the terrible story his brother had to tell was about Tim barfing in the car as a kid. And on Joe Scarborough's show, Mike Barnicle asked the fitting question: how did the Republicans get here, nominating a lunatic Trump for a third time? The answer - in part anyway - IS Joe Scarborough. C-Block (42:37) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The NFL season opens tonight.

Trump must be living rent free inside Biden's head, because now Biden is following Trump to the border in Texas to campaign, instead of doing so from his basement like 2020, where he just relied on ballot mules and his buddies in the FBI to steal the election for him. Plus, Adam Kinzinger salivates over the Russian war dead accumulating in Ukraine. And finally, the lawyer for Mark Felt, otherwise known as 'Deep Throat,' joins us to set the record straight on how The Washington Post betrayed his client and used him to take down Nixon in order to cover for the CIA.Guests:Mike Puglise | Former Law Enforcement Officer & Founder, Puglise Law FirmRaymond Ibrahim | Author, 'Defenders of the West: The Christian Heroes Who Stood Against Islam'Dr. John O'Connor | Author, 'Postgate: How the Washington Post Betrayed Deep Throat, Covered Up Watergate, and Began Today's Partisan Advocacy Journalism'Elaine Parker | President, Job Creators Network Foundation

This week marks 51 years since the trial began for the five men caught burglarizing the DNC offices at the Watergate Hotel. John O'Connor has been researching the scandal for decades, publishing two books on the subject and even building a relationship with whistleblower Mark Felt, known colloquially as "Deep Throat." On this special episode, he returns to the program to talk even more in-depth on the origins of the scandal, how Nixon's downfall was initiated by rogue elements within multiple levels of government, and how current scandals within the White House relate to this embarrassing and somewhat frightening chapter in American politics. ***** TOP STORIES California Now Outlaws Police From Asking The Most Uncomfortable Question Ever Pro-Hamas Nazis Vow to Sack Seattle's Space Needle on New Year's Eve 'Missing' Melania Stories Confirm Pundit's Advice: Former First Lady Is Key to Trump Win in 2024 Here's Why the Harvard President's Resignation Letter Set Off the Plagiarism Klaxons Again Sean Hannity Has Had Enough: 'Goodbye, I Am Done' A Jewish Family Is Attacked at 'American Dream Mall' in N.J., and We've Got One Big Question AOC Gives Away the Game on America's Southern Border Crisis West Coast, Messed Coast™ — 'Save Democracy' Crowd Sues to Stop Oregon Voters From Choosing Trump Government Regulators Are Coming for the Amish Farmer Again ***** MORE INFO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠VictoriaTaft.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Victoria Taft @ PJ Media --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/victoria-taft/support

Welcome. Thank you for joining us for this edition of the Modlin Global Analysis Podcast. We regularly talk about international affairs as well as economics and politics, and it's always helpful to notice how much these themes often interact with each other. And we'll continue in that discussion throughout this year. And in all these episodes, but it is worth noting, specifically, we're going to go back in history and talk about Watergate and this interaction of international politics and the Watergate scandal that we're many of us are familiar with. I'm glad to be joined. In by Dan Modlin this week, we're going to twist the tables and I'll be asking and Dan questions. And it's particularly interesting because throughout his life he has been fascinated by the Watergate scandal. And as a student, he did extensive research on this question and his revisited—frequent times. So Dan, thank you for joining us on this. And our first question to you is although Watergate was generally considered to be a domestic story doesn't it have some international politics connections to it?DanYes, thank you, Kevin. It's something a lot of people don't realize that the roots of the whole Watergate scandal really go back to the Pentagon Papers incident in which a Rand analyst named Daniel Ellsberg was accused of leaking documents to the New York Times that became known as the. Pentagon Papers and these were internal documents from the Defense Department. Which had analyzed some of the mistakes made during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations in the war in Vietnam, Richard Nixon's name was not in the Pentagon Papers, but he was very concerned about the leaks. As it turns out, he and Henry Kissinger in that time were involved in some of the diplomacy that. Would later lead to. Opening some of the doors with China and they were very concerned that some of the information from the Pentagon Papers, even some of the documents that hadn't been released yet. Referred to some surveillance flights that the US had carried out over China and they were concerned that that could impede their progress in talking with Chinese leaders. So there was very definitely an international aspect to this. Another interesting side light of this was that Ellsberg, the person who's widely recognized as the person who leaked the Pentagon Papers, had actually had a mentor named Henry Kissinger in his past. Going to Garrett M Graff in his very interesting book, Watergate and New History, Kissinger was concerned that if that former student would continue to leak documents, that would reflect badly on him, and it would also obviously have an impact on some of their diplomacy. But according to graph. Kissinger then encouraged Nixon to take a hard stand on. Leaks and that hard stand was what led directly to some of the corruption and illegal activity that became known as the Watergate scandal.KevinYou know, this is fascinating because, well, you've spent a significant amount of time thinking about Watergate. I've been interested in the Cold War era of this same time period. And I've read biographies on Kissinger. And this was a very important mark both in the history of what we would know with Watergate, but also the relationship that Kissinger has throughout the administration. And this feeding of basically paranoia that comes from that and we see. The Nixon and Kissinger bond kind of strengthened through this paranoia, right? So they have a greater trust basically through developing distrust of others. And just as I mentioned earlier, you've had these interesting stories that you've shared with me throughout my life. Of being at the Watergate hearings, and in fact, you were there the day Attorney General John Mitchell. So I know all of us would enjoy hearing some of the macro pieces that you've heard, as well as what was it like being there?DanIt was a very interesting experience and to put it kind of in context, I don't know of anything that happens currently that had quite the attentional center. Watergate hearings had all three TV networks were devoting the entire day to carrying the testimony at those hearing. But I did have the opportunity. It's it's kind of a strange way I I got the. Chance but I. Did get to go to hear the first day, John Mitchell testified Attorney General John Mitchell. As it happened, I was a young agriculture reporter and my father worked for a TV affiliate in Indianapolis who had a Stringer. On the hill. And as it turned out, that Stringer wasn't going to be going to the hearing that day, so he loaned me his press pass. So I actually got to go in and sit through the entire day's hearings. And it was it was amazing. Author Norman Mailer was there. There were rumors that John Lennon was going to be there. I never saw him. But I would have.KevinI'm sure I'm sure if he.DanWas there when? You would know him.DanI would. Have noticed him, but it was. It was an amazing activity and really that particular day, Mitchell. Was very effective at not answering questions, and there wasn't anything that earth shattering that that came out the particular day I was there, but it was it was an amazing experience to be able to witness all all of this going on in, in the caucus room there and and that the Senate was dealing with it was it was really. It was like watching history being made.KevinAnd that caucus room? That meeting room is one that continuously they go to for major hearings because of the size and the media capacity they have for that room. So Garrett Graff, as you mentioned, has written a book that's garnered a lot of attention in recent years on Watergate, a new history. What are some of these key findings that you have from this both? In domestic politics, particularly, but maybe anything international.DanAs well, I think I think Graff did an excellent job of researching this story and a lot of the information that I found new was he went back and dug up the early abuses, the plans to bug offices. And again, a lot of this started with the idea of stopping leaks, but it it quickly. Grew to illegal activity and the graph lays that out and then points out that there was much more to the story than just the break in at the Democratic headquarters. He's also very quick to point out that a lot of the information that that came out through the Washington Post, again through reporters, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. A lot of that information came from their source at the time. Was just known as. Deep-Throat, but that it was later revealed that that was Mark Felt and graph points out that a lot of the information that felt provided to those reporters was really pretty self-serving in that felt was hoping to take over the head position at the FBI after the death of J Edgar Hoover and so. Although in the movie all the president's men, we kind of get the in. To this interesting guy that meets reporters in the garage and he's trying to do something to help save the country from some kind of awful fate. In fact, he probably was giving them information that was helping him. At the same time, so that that was certainly one of the things and I think. Just in general Graff also was pretty tough on a couple of the key players in terms of how they work things around to try to make themselves look less culpable than they were. He was, I would say he was fairly tough on John Dean and Jeb Magruder. Both in terms of their role, their direct role in the cover up and their attempts to. Appear that they they really weren't as involved as they were.KevinSo it's interesting how self-interest came to play into these conversations. They're all by political actors that are thinking ahead about the environment they're in, seeking to move up in the world somehow created an institution that can internalize that and. Both see the challenges as well as some of the checks that can create throughout the Watergate committee proceedings, the White House tried to downplay investigations and call them a witch hunt. Did that strategy work?DanWell, obviously in the end it did not work. For a while. It helped. Helped to keep the president in office, probably looking back on it, they were able to continually use this approach that the investigators were it was a witch hunt or that the American people didn't care about this investigation and that we needed to get back to the business of the country and that. Argument was used repeatedly during the last months of the Nixon administration, but eventually the what I believe what happened and looking back on it, some of the. Key and a mid level figures who were involved in the White House and in the campaign to reelect the president started to get plea deals and the information started to come out and it became more and more difficult to maintain that line that there really was nothing to the case. And then of course the revelation that there was a taping. System in the White House was a real game changer in terms of the evidence that the investigators could eventually locate.KevinHow were the investigators able to get into this inner circle of the White House?DanI think that was really largely through the plea deals. I think these were a lot of these people were individuals who had certainly no criminal background, no criminal record. And as they began to feel more and more isolated as the conspiracy continued, some of those. Figures such as I mentioned John Dean and Jeb Magruder obtained plea arrangements to kind of absolve themselves of most of the charges against them in return for a relatively light sentence. And once those. Figures started to work with prosecutors. Really, the end was almost inevitable because of the information they provided implicated the higher ups, and so it was pretty much once the once the investigators were able to get people like Dean and Magruder to cooperate, I think it probably was just a. Matter of time.KevinSo one of the other things that I think is fascinating about this and it's something that you and I've talked about is how many individuals involved in this had no monetary gain from either their criminal activities or their advocacy or the support of. Of the break-ins, they didn't make money from this. They seemed to be either drawn to power or believing in something. I think it'd be interesting to think about how that dynamic intersects with these plea deals, right? So did these individuals who came to the plea deal. Was that some way they're accepting their role on this, but also maybe a shift in their optimism of what their purpose was.DanYeah, I think that's true. I I that's a good point. And as the plea deal started as we said, it's an interesting thing to note that. All the people who ended up with the plea deals, the people who did prison time for the Watergate break in with the exception of the people who actually broke into the building, most of them really did not do anything in terms of a physical act that would you would associate with the crime. Certainly, conspiracy cover up perjury, obstruction of justice or crimes. There's no doubt about that. But there really wasn't personal gain for most of them, as you said. Interestingly enough, Spiro Agnew, the vice president, who had to step down in 1973, was the only person really in that White House that lost his position because of corruption. In terms of making money on a kickback or a bribe, Agnew was, and Agnew really wasn't too involved in the Watergate. They didn't seem to include him in the discussions, but he he's the one that served time for or he's the one that gave up his had to lose his office. I should. For greed and corruption, the others were more. It was a belief that they were doing something to keep the president in office, or a belief that. They were helping. To protect national security, whatever, whatever their justification may have been at the time, it certainly the evidence mounted up and it was. Clear that they were doing illegal things.KevinYes, this is a fascinating topic and actually we have so much to cover on this we're going to do this as a two-part series. So we'll hear more about this in the following week. But again, Dan, thank you for talking about this with us. I've been fortunate throughout my life that to listen to somebody. He was fascinated by events, fascinated by people and fascinated by history that I get to hear these conversations and wanted to take this opportunity.

On this edition of Parallax Views, Aaron J. Leonard joins us to discuss the new revised and updated edition of his and Conor A. Gallagher book Heavy Radicals: The FBI's Secret War on America's Maoists: The Revolutionary Union/Revolutionary Communist Part 1968-1980. We delve into the radical left-wing politics of the late 1960s into the 1970s and the influence of Mao Tse-Tung's variant on communist thought on American radicals as well as how revolutionary groups in the U.S. applied theory and praxis in their operations at the time. This leads us into discussions of figures like H. Bruce Franklin as well as the infamous Bob Avakian, Chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA (RCP). It is well-known that the post-WWII era saw the intelligence community become very concerned about radical left-wing politics, specifically the activities of communist groups, in the U.S. during the Cold War between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. Much has been made of J. Edgar Hoover, the House on Un-American Activities Committee, and COINTELPRO in this regard. But Aaron specifically focuses on the FBI's counterintelligence operations against Maoist groups. We discuss the "dirty tricks" that were used against these groups by the FBI at this time. We discuss FBI informant recruiting in the time as well as the specific players involved in activities against U.S.-based Maoist groups. Aaron names names and gives insight into FBI actions against left-wing radical groups in the United States post-Hoover. Additionally Aaron and I discuss the Black Panthers, the media vs. radical activities, the labor movement, conspiracy theories vs. systemic analysis, the evangelical couple that sought to help the FBI by infiltrating the Revolutionary Union, W. Mark Felt (the man who confessed to being "Deep Throat" in the Nixon-era Watergate saga in 2005), the FBI report that referred to the RCP as a "threat of the first magnitude" to the U.S., the concept of the deep state and why Aaron believes there is just the State rather than deep state, the JFK Records Act and how the files released from that has value beyond the questions surrounding the Kennedy assassination itself (ie: files on Fred Hampton, Bob Dylan, etc.), how do you read and evaluate FBI files?, the Fair Play for Cuba Committe, the CIA and Richard Gibson (Codename: Sugar), Donald Wright, why is Maoism neglected when looking at the history of the New Left?, COINTELPRO and the Ad Hoc Commitee, the FBI's war against radical folk musicians and Aaron's latest books Whole World in an Uproar: Music, Rebellion and Repression – 1955-1972 and The Folk Singers and the Bureau: The FBI, the Folk Artists and the Suppression of the Communist Party, USA-1939-1956, Pete Seeger and the radical nature of much 20th century folk music, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and what Aaron refers to as the "soft revocation" of FOIA, and more.

El Watergate fue el mayor escándalo político de Estados Unidos en el siglo XX, que concluyó el 8 de agosto de 1974 con la dimisión del presidente Richard Nixon.Nixon renunció para evitar el procesamiento penal y la destitución por delitos de obstrucción a la justicia y encubrimiento cometidos para ocultar el frustrado asalto al cuartel general del Partido Demócrata en las oficinas del Watergate el 17 de junio de 1972, durante la campaña electoral de ese año.En esa fecha, cinco asaltantes encabezados por el jefe de seguridad del Comité de Reelección del Presidente Nixon, James McCord, son detenidos cuando pretendían instalar un sistema de escucha telefónica en las oficinas demócratas.Aunque inicialmente el allanamiento no tuvo mucho eco en la prensa, The Washington Post mantuvo el tema vivo gracias a las exclusivas de Bob Woodward y Carl Bernstein, dos jóvenes periodistas que habían logrado establecer contacto con un importante confidente dentro del FBI, Mark Felt, el conocido como Garganta Profunda, que les irá guiando en la trama.El caso se fue desarrollando durante algo más de dos años ante una opinión pública atónita al ir conociendo por dentro las intrigas del poder, a través de las sorprendentes grabaciones del Despacho Oval, y los testimonios de políticos y funcionarios en las comisiones del Congreso norteamericano.Nixon, cada vez más acorralado, termina cayendo cuando en una de las grabaciones se le escucha ordenar a la CIA que impida al FBI que continúe con la investigación. Será la prueba de cargo, la Smoking Gun.Pasado el tiempo, el Watergate nos habla de la guerra sucia contra un adversario político usando los resortes del poder; de la obstinación periodística por conocer y difundir la verdad; del buen funcionamiento de las instituciones para sancionar atropellos en nombre de la seguridad nacional y, en definitiva, de la salud democrática de una Administración que expulsa a un presidente que ha cometido delitos amparado en su cargo.A día de hoy nos preguntamos si un caso así sería posible, si la verdad autoinculpatoria que entonces emergió en la voz del mismo presidente Nixon sería en estos días tan inapelable. Si un eventual deterioro democrático no intoxicaría la verdad sometida a los intereses de los grupos de presión.Watergate, la agonía política de Nixon, con guion de Luis Miguel Úbeda, ha contado con Ángel Montero Lama, autor de Watergate deconstruido; José Antonio Montero, profesor de Historia en la UCM y especialista en historia de Estados Unidos; Pablo León Aguinaga, profesor de Relaciones Internacionales y Geopolítica en el Centro Universitario de la Defensa de Zaragoza; y con el periodista José María Carrascal, corresponsal en Nueva York del diario Pueblo durante el Watergate.Además, el documental cuenta con los testimonios de los principales actores de la trama, incluido la propia voz de Nixon.Escuchar audio

The Watergate 'Deep Throat' Secret: A New Investigative Story of Bernstein, Woodward, and the FBI's Mark FeltBy: Joseph M. WebbThe Watergate era, that 1970s decade of Nixon, Woodward and Bernstein, gave us also that strange character with the obscene moniker, DEEP THROAT—an unidentified character for more than thirty years. This book is, in short, the story of DEEP THROAT; not only who he was—he was quite real—but the politically obscene things he did from his Number Two position within the FBI itself. DEEP THROAT was, in fact, Mark Felt, the FBI's feared “hatchet man,” a powerful role that he played with glee and panache.What emerges in these pages is a highly original story, one filled with new Watergate research and observations. Here, too, are serious challenges to the truthfulness of the famous Woodward/Bernstein (and Robert Redford) book and movie, All the President's Men. These pages also include a remarkable assortment of declassified FBI documents about the Watergate break-in and its aftermath, documents replete with examples of Mark Felt's grotesque FBI “signature”—a large, saber-shaped capital “F,” which, in Felt's case, could stand for many things.As a journalist and journalism professor for more than 50 years, the author of this book began his Watergate research even as the events of that era were unfolding in the ‘70s. Webb, Woodward and Bernstein are the same age and were prominent newspaper reporters at the same time—they in Washington DC and he in Chicago and the Illinois state capitol. Webb, who has two doctorate degrees and a dozen earlier books, has collected, analyzed and documented volumes about the Watergate story over all the years since it began.For anyone not yet acquainted with the Watergate past, this book is a rich feast indeed. Anyone interested in American politics will become caught up in Watergate's chicanery, its conniving, its cowardice, its cruelty, its very public lies and deceits, its villains along with a few heroes. As you read these pages, you, too, will get caught up in this provocative Great American DEEP THROAT Story.https://www.josephmwebb.com/https://www.amazon.com/Watergate-Deep-Throat-Secret-Investigative-ebook/dp/B0BQH168HS/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1HRWY72A7V0G2&keywords=joseph+m+webb&qid=1680142596&sprefix=joseph+m+web%2Caps%2C290&sr=8-2http://www.KingPagesPress.comhttp://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/41323kpp1.mp3 

Author & former federal prosecutor John D. O'Connor joins the program to look back on a crucial moment in the history of governmental corruption and law enforcement, the Watergate scandal. O'Connor befriended & represented Mark Felt, the FBI associate director better known as the legendary whistleblower "Deep Throat," a revelation that O'Connor helped to reveal through a blockbuster article in Vanity Fair. O'Connor has authored two recent books on the scandal, and draws parallels between the FBI & press during that time and their modern successors. He discusses how he first came to know Mark Felt and how he convinced Felt to come clean about his role in Woodward & Bernstein's reports. He also addresses the connections between the Democratic party & current White House and Russian interests that led to the infamous and widely-discredited "Pee Tape" dossier, why China is an existential threat to US sovereignty, and why corruption in the executive branch proves that the DOJ, FBI & media have learned nothing from the mistakes of Watergate.

EPISODE 127: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:41) SPECIAL COMMENT: It is carefully hidden to protect the sources, but there's no question in my mind now: The New York Times' profile of the arrested ex-FBI New York Executive Charles McGonigal implies that FBI and DOJ are investigating whether he was working for Oleg Deripaska, employer of Paul Manafort who was Trump's Campaign Manager - FOR FREE - long before he retired from the Bureau. I go through the Times piece line-by-line and the phrasing, the invoking of an earlier Russian Spy in McGonigal's own FBI department, the terminology, is all groundwork for later stories that could fully reengage this country with the reality of Trump's 2016 Conspiracy with Russia - and how the FBI's New York Office may have knowingly or unknowingly played a part on both ends of that fetid deal.

On today's show we discuss the Trump Organization, former president Donald Trump's namesake company, is set to go on trial Monday for alleged tax crimes — the result of a lengthy investigation into the company and its executives related to fraud and other potentially illegal business practices. Trump is not charged personally and the portion of the investigation for which he still could face criminal charges is not yet concluded by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's investigators.

EPISODE 58: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) The vague and underwhelming Bloomberg report about how prosecutors "believe there is sufficient evidence to charge Trump" was surprisingly specific about one thing: the timeline is developing in such a way that a Trump indictment for Obstruction of Justice and other crimes would not happen before the week of January 2 (or, as a longshot, the week of December 26) 3:44 Bloomberg also gives away its source: the FBI agents in "the team that's part of the classified records probe." (5:00) There is an unclear claim that DOJ would not indict ONLY on Obstruction. Does that mean they DO intend to file other charges, or that if they don't file others, they won't file ANYTHING? (6:50) DOJ may also be trying to time any announcement to fit appropriately with Trump's other legal vulnerabilities, like the Eastman Coup Georgia lying-in-a-sworn-statement case that just grew in seriousness yesterday (7:26) But probably not the E. Jean Carroll rape lawsuits for which Trump was deposed yesterday (8:00) Finally I take a wild guess at the EXACT date of any Trump indictment - at least the most appropriate date for it. B-Block (12:37) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Griffin, in California (13:36) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: The voice of the Ohio voter is heard loud and clear: "F You, Fascist!" So why aren't Dem bigwigs funding Tim Ryan? And push comes to shove in the slowly-expiring British cabinet. No: Literally. Pushing and shoving in parliament. (17:31) IN SPORTS: You may think pitching decides baseball's post-seasons, but those with more homers won both games yesterday - and 101 of the last 120. And a Christmas Album allows me to confirm the ancient story of Philadelphia fans booing Santa Claus, plus New York fans throwing snowballs at Tiny Tim's tulips (21:11) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Sean Hannity tells us way too much of how his dad used to beat him with a belt. He and Jim Jordan compete with Kimberly Guilfoyle actually making a joke about Nancy Pelosi and plastic surgery. Can we start a GoFundMe to get Kim a mirror? C-Block (27:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: With Netflix's profits in the news, the story of the day I met with them to propose not just a streaming political show, but how they could own ALL of the TV News field in the post-cable future and all they could think about was...the necessity of putting on Italian subtitles.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ever since former FBI Associate Director Mark Felt outed himself as the source for the Washington Post's Watergate reporting, he has been praised as a kind of dissident hero.

Arguably, the most famous story of Watergate, save Richard Nixon's resignation itself, is that of the famous Washington Post secret source, My Friend, Mr. X, or better known thanks to the movie and book "All the President's Men" as Deep Throat. He turned out to be the number 2 man at the FBI, W. Mark Felt.  Felt denied it for decades even though he was among the list of suspects and he only came forward due to his family pushing him for what appears to be a payday long after Felt himself was capable of making the decision on his own.But the decision of Mark Felt and his family to step forward also flushed out another man, also in his advanced years, near death due to pancreatic cancer, who had paid a horrible price for a role in Watergate that he had not asked for, nor deserved to have played.  L. Patrick Gray was the Acting Director of the FBI following the death of J. Edgar Hoover. Hoover had led the Bureau for nearly a half century and as his health began to fade a power struggle for who would replace him had emerged. When Hoover died, just a month before the break in, Richard Nixon seized the moment to reign in the Bureau that under Hoover had become a power source for its director.It was in making that play that Nixon turned to Pat Gray so that a new leader, without a dog in the fight for control of the Bureau, could take control and clean house. Gray however soon found himself not only dealing with  intrigue within the FBI but intrigue outside of it as well.  He was barely on the job a month before he was mislead by the White House Counsel to the President and was being spied on and undermined by his number 2 man at the Bureau. In this episode we look at both men and how their stories are intertwined, and also how aggrandizing one man's role in Watergate led to the destruction of the other man. Gray has seen his name sullied as an untrustworthy pawn of the White House, who destroyed important Watergate investigation files by throwing them in the Potomac River. In reality, Gray was an honest man whose only real crime was in believing in the people around him. He was mislead into destroying documents that were found in Howard Hunt's safe, but the materials were both not related to Watergate , and while forged,  had content  in them that was actually true.  All of this cost Gray his chance to be the Director of the FBI, a job he had done well, and wanted to continue serve in.  It was certainly a high price for him to pay.  L. Patrick Gray was, in the end,  the truly innocent man of Watergate. In this episode we look at both the story of Mark Felt and Patrick Gray.  *** For more information please go to the following website ShepardonWatergate,comSupport My WorkIf you love the show, the easiest way to show your support is by leaving us a positive rating with a review.

Cheese it! It's the Feds! When Trump is quoted as asking why "his" generals aren't more like Hitler's generals were and that calls up his 32 years of publicly praising the Nazis, and that's NOT the TOP Trump story that day, it's been a big day! The full implications of the raid at Mar-A-Lago, the possibility the DOJ is going for an 18 USC Code 2071(b) case against Trump, the chances of getting him disqualified from again holding federal office, the dismissal of the charge that the investigation is unprecedented, and the hilarious reaction from the right threatening "war." We'll also review The New Yorker story about Trump and Hitler, and why reporters keep burying important stories to save them for books years later. Plus Sports, Worst Persons In The World, and in Things I Promised Not To Tell: The day I did absolutely no work and broke the greatest story of my career - the trade of hockey superstar Wayne Gretzky.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode #750 Watergate the 50th Anniversary Pt.2 Richard welcomes a U.S. Attorney to discuss the Watergate scandal which began early in the morning of June 17, 1972, when several burglars were arrested in the office of the Democratic National Committee, located in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, D.C. This was no ordinary robbery: The prowlers were connected to President Richard Nixon's reelection campaign, and they had been caught wiretapping phones and stealing documents. The ensuing attempted cover-up of the break-in led to President Nixon's eventual resignation in August 1974. ​ Guest: John O'Connor is an experienced trial lawyer, practicing law in San Francisco since 1972. He has tried cases in state and federal court throughout the country. He served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Northern California, representing the United States in both criminal and civil cases. Among his interesting assignments have been representation writing Fifth Amendment and "state of mind" briefs for the prosecution in United States v. Patricia Hearst; representing Coach Don Nelson in litigation with Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban; and representing W. Mark Felt regarding the revelation of his identity as Deep Throat.
