@janienesbittjones.bsky.socialToday, September 23rd, is National Checkers Day and Dogs in Politics Day. The observance began after Vice Presidential candidate Richard Nixon gave his famous "Checkers Speech" on September 23, 1952. #dogs #politics #RichardNixon
@liamomaraiv.bsky.socialHaving taken #bribes and been caught, #RichardNixon, candidate for #VicePresident, used the new medium of #television on #ThisDayInHistory in 1952 for his #CheckersSpeech, complained he needed the extra money to run, and said he was keeping the #CockerSpaniel given him as a gift.
@catlover1943.bsky.socialDear #DJT, You are NO #JFK. You are NO #DwightEisenhower. You are no #GeraldFord. You are NO #GeorgeHWBush.
Give it up and realize you are closer to #RichardNixon than any other recent #POTUS. At least he had the decency to #Resign when caught doing un-presidential things.

@woodstockwhisperer.bsky.socialSeptember 19, 1969: #RichardNixon cancelled draft calls for November and December. This move was calculated to quell antiwar protests by students returning to college campuses after the summer.
Keep in mind that the US involvement would not end for more than 3 years. #VietnamWar

@paulinepark.bsky.social#OnThisDay in 1974, #GeraldFord pardoned #RichardNixon, possibly costing Ford re-election; it was the biggest mistake of Ford's presidency; allowing Nixon to be prosecuted would have set an important precedent for the prosecution of #DonaldTrump...
