Nixon’s thirty-five-year- old grand jury testimony and associated materials of the Watergate Special Prosecution Force.1 On June 23-24, 1975, President Nixon testified before two members of a federal grand jury who had traveled from Washington, DC, to San Clemente, California. The testimony was then presented in Washington, DC, to the full grand jury that had been convened to investigate political espionage, illegal campaign contributions, and other wrongdoing falling under the umbrella term Watergate. Watergate was the defining event of Richard Nixon’s presidency. In the early 1970s, as the Vietnam War raged and the civil rights movement in the United States continued its momentum, the Watergate scandal ignited a crisis of confidence in government leadership and a constitutional crisis that tested the limits of executive power and the mettle of the democratic process. “Watergate” was 1A list of the records that petitioners seek is attached to the Petition, filed concurrently herewith.

  • Was the CIA Involved in the Assassination of President Kennedy Or the Cover up Conspiracy?
    Was the CIA Involved in the Assassination of President Kennedy or the Cover Up Conspiracy? Introduction: For more than ten years there has been much speculation about whether the Central Intelligence Agency played a role in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. With the Watergate revelations, the testimony of such well known CIA types as Richard Helms, E. Howard Hunt, and James McCord, and with many questions about the CIA's role in the Watergate episode still unanswered, it seems pertinent to once again raise the questions in the title. Was the CIA involved in some way in the conspiracy to assassinate John Kennedy, and was the agency involved in the second conspiracy to cover up the first? Various assassination researchers and writers have, through the ten years, shown substantial evidence that CIA front organizations and former CIA agents were involved in the first conspiracy and that the CIA itself was deeply involved in the cover up conspiracy. (1)(2)(3)(4) Recent revelations and.new evidence has appeared that make the questions worth further exploration. 2 E. Howard Hunt and Mexico City: The most recent revelations concern that compulsive spy, Everette Howard Hunt. Tad Szulc (5) has informed us that Hunt was CIA acting station chief in Mexico City during August and September, 1963. Because of a hole in the known whereabouts of Hunt, as documented by Szulc, we can draw the conclusion that he was still acting station chief in October and November 1963. To the uninitiated this may seem disconnected from the JFK assassina- tion. However, to the researchers who have had access to the statements made by CIA agents Harry Dean, Richard Case Nagell and to FBI reports about CIA agents Ronald Augustinovich and Mary Hope, Hunt's position in Mexico City is very significant.

  • The Failure of America's Transferal Policy from the Cold War to the War on Terror
    Journal of International Relations and Foreign Policy June 2019, Vol. 7, No. 1, pp. 1-9 ISSN: 2333-5866 (Print), 2333-5874 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jirfp.v7n1a1 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jirfp.v7n1a1 The Failure of America’s Transferal Policy from the Cold War to the War on Terror Jason Cooley1 Introduction When a nation is attempting to become a potent force in the world, its leaders have a propensity to focus on the positives that will surface once this goal is achieved. What they fail to take into consideration is the manner in which several problems also emerge after a considerable amount of power is acquired. Some of these issues can be resolved rather quickly, but others take a lot of time to rectify because they are extremely complicated. One of the problems that take up much of the time of policymakers from a world power is instability within nations where military interventions are taking place. If instances from the past are examined, it becomes quite apparent that one of the ways that a major power deals with disorder is by using transferal, a policy that consists of handing security responsibilities from the intervening soldiers to indigenous parties. While the Cold War was in progress, American officials exhibited an affinity for the transferal policy. It can be said that this fondness did not dissipate following the downfall of the Soviet Union because Washington has continued to make transfers in the campaign against Islamic extremist organizations.
