(Bettmann / Contributor/Getty Images) More than three decades after his death, Richard Milhouse Nixon is finally having his moment. A new generation of conservatives has come to admire the 37th president. They see him as the model Republican leader, far superior to Ronald Reagan and even Donald Trump. Hype edits of his speeches regularly go viral on social media. To those who partake in Nixonmaxxing, as the phenomenon has been dubbed, he is the man who nearly saved America—until the deep state took him out. On the one…Open
Many of us have been Nixonmaxxing for more than 50 years. I told you so.

Many of us have been Nixonmaxxing for more than 50 years. I told you so. For more than 50 years the political establishment, the liberal media, the academic historians, democrats, and far too many weak-kneed, lily-livered, white wine swilling country club Republicans have repeated the same dishonest caricature of Richard Nixon. They told Americans that Nixon was a sinister, paranoid, power hungry president whose resignation proved the righteousness of the Washington, D.C. establishment. They were wrong. They reduced one of the most consequential presidents of the 20th century to a third-rate hotel burglary he neither planned nor authorized. They ignored his enormous accomplishments, concealed the misconduct of his enemies, and…Open

JD Vance Reexamines Watergate and Richard Nixon’s Presidency Roger Stone offers a sprawling narrative that frames the takedown of Richard Nixon as a precursor to the modern “deep state” actions against Donald Trump. Stone argues that newly declassified documents prove intelligence agencies orchestrated a coup during Watergate, a theory he claims is finally gaining traction due to the rise of alternative media platforms and recent public support from figures like J.D. Vance. The program transitions into a discussion of international crises, specifically highlighting the collapse of the Venezuelan state following devastating earthquakes and the perceived failures of socialism in responding to the tragedy. Stone concludes by shifting…Open
Vice President JD Vance praised former President Richard Nixon but downplayed the Watergate scandal, which led to Nixon’s resignation, saying it would have been “a 12-hour story” today. Chris Cuomo argued those comments should disqualify Vance from a future presidential run. Vance also compared Nixon’s withdrawal from Vietnam to President Trump’s approach to Iran, a comparison Cuomo called flawed. NewsNation’s Katie Pavlich joins “CUOMO” for a heated debate.
