Nixon was the disgrace. Without Woodward and Bernstein he might have gotten away with it. Who hated Woodward back then? Nixon, all the presidents men and probably Roger Stone. Nixon had a 24% approval rating when he left the White House in disgrace.
" Without Woodward and Bernstein" I've met and talked with BOTH of them, have you?

BOTH are pompous arses.

"Nixon was the disgrace. Without Woodward and Bernstein he might have gotten away with it."

Everybody in D.C. KNEW jfk, rfk and teddy were "NOT faithful" to their wives. Why DIDN'T either Woodward or Bernstein EVER do stories about them?

Where were Woodward and Bernstein after teddy killed Mary Jo? He went BACK to the part and talked with his "handlers" INSTEAD of going to the police, which he FINALLY did THE NEXT MORNING Shouldn't THAT have reached the "disgrace" level? A week after the indecent, the story was DEAD.

bill clinton was KNOWN from his days in Arkansas to "mess around". even with women who did NOT let him. The "great Woodward and Bernstein couldn't find the infamous "blue" dress and NONE of these great "investigative reporters" could find it. You have go looking in order to find something,

Even after clinton LIED on natioal TV, "I dd NOT have sexual relations...."crickets from both Woodward and Bernstein. Shouldn't THAT have reached the "disgrace" level?

Do you see a pattern? I do!

I'm from D.C and the post has become nothing more then rag paper. Mad magazine has MORE credibility.

Nope, I've heard the concern about the protests causing COVID spikes nearly every time any of the protests got national news coverage since the very first ones.

If you're not hearing it, you're simply not listening.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government’s top infectious disease expert, said Friday that normal times won’t replace America’s long coronavirus nightmare until deep into 2021, explaining that it will take months to widely administer a vaccine.

The 79-year-old immunologist said he continues to expect a vaccine to be available by the beginning of 2021.

“But by the time you mobilize the distribution of the vaccine and get a majority or more of the population vaccinated and protected, that’s likely not going to happen until the end of 2021,†Fauci told MSNBC. “If you’re talking about getting back to a degree of normality prior to COVID, it’s going to be well into 2021, maybe even towards the end of 2021.â€





So when Trump lies about this being "around the turn"...he's not being truthful again. Lies: 20,000+ and counting.
Dr Fauci said that face masks don't work, they cause more germ spreading because people handle their face more, etc. Then he said to wear face masks. Which lie of Fauci's should we believe/dismiss?

Trump says Woodward should have taken his concerns to "the authorities"....

YOU ARE THE FRIGGIN' AUTHORITY, YOU MORON! (paraphrased, Andersen Cooper, 9/11 Show).

Trump didn't want to cause mass panic? Yet his whole political career since coming down the escalator has revolved around creating panic.

Reported the facts straight from the horses mouth, it doesn't get any more professional than that.

Fear mongering is his only path forward, he sure as hell can't run on his record.
