Nixon knew everything he said was being recorded. Like Kennedy and Johnson who came before him, he had decided to install a taping system so that he could maintain a record of his administration. He was, in a way, dictating a file memo for future historians. There would end up being 3700 hours of tape recordings. There was a Tape with 18 minutes of missing content. What was on that tape??
Nixon never minced words. He swore. And he routinely called out the very people who he felt were against him and trying to bring down his presidency. In addition to the C_A, Nixon believed it to be the Askenazi Jews…though he specifically said “The Jewish Cabal is out to get me.”
