The Nixon Conspiracy

Watergate and the Plot to Remove the President

De: Geoff Shepard

Narrado por: Charles Constant

Geoff Shepard’s shocking exposé of corrupt collusion between prosecutors, judges, and congressional staff to void Nixon’s 1972 landslide reelection. Their success changed the course of American history.

Geoff Shepard had a ringside seat to the unfolding Watergate debacle. As the youngest lawyer on Richard Nixon’s staff, he personally transcribed the Oval Office tape in which Nixon appeared to authorize getting the CIA to interfere with the ongoing FBI investigation, and even coined the phrase “the smoking gun.” Like many others, the idealistic Shepard was deeply disappointed in the president. But as time went on, the meticulous lawyer was nagged by the persistent sense that something wasn’t right with the case against Nixon.

The Nixon Conspiracy is a detailed and definitive account of the Watergate prosecutors’ internal documents uncovered after years of painstaking research in previously sealed archives. Shepard reveals the untold story of how a flawed but honorable president was needlessly brought down by a corrupt, deep state, big media alliance — a circumstance that looks all too familiar today. In this hard-hitting exposé, Shepard reveals the real smoking gun: the prosecutors’ secret, but erroneous, “Road Map” which caused grand jurors to name Nixon a co-conspirator in the Watergate cover-up and the House Judiciary Committee to adopt its primary Article of Impeachment.

Shepard’s startling conclusion is that Nixon didn’t actually have to resign. The proof of his good faith is right there on the tapes. Instead, he should have taken his case to a Senate impeachment trial — where, if everything we know now had come out — he would easily have won.

Great book!

I remember learning about Watergate in high school and college. Like everyone I was fooled into believing that Nixon was behind the whole plan and he should have been impeached at a minimum.
This book goes into great detail explaining why Nixon was not only not involved, but Nixon is owed an apology. This book should be a must read in high school and college courses on our history.

Shocked / Not Shocked

This book is a must read to see how the DC Swamp has a “roadmap” to destroy any political (or even public figure) that they hate and want to get out of the way. Amazing how after all of these years our notion of what happened was based solely on speculation and not fact.

Legal and thorough

A highly legal and technical analysis by a man of integrity then and now. So keep your thinking hat on as Shepard stays in the weeds.
Somewhat tough listening because of the narrator's robotic staccato pace.

corruption of the prosecution team

makes the argument of just how corrupt governemnt really is.. and had been for generations. A+

A tour de force!

Geoff Shepard has undoubtedly investigated and written the single most important book on Watergate. He conclusively proves that deeply corrupt “prosecutors,” judges, journalists and politicians staged the coup against a duly-elected president. Watergate and the fall of Nixon directly led to the Democrats revoking military support of South Vietnam following the Paris Peace Accords and the invasion and defeat of South Vietnam. Thank you for your work, Mr. Shepard.

Interesting consolidation but…

In near 50 years, this has not consolidated under so many persons at much more prominent levels within and even without the government??? Unlikely. I think the author’s ending points to coloration…that being a continuation and combination of alternative history.

A Valid Argument in the Case Against Nixon

This book provided insight that I have not gleaned from any other source. I’ve always assumed Nixon was guilty. This book states a clear case for the opposite.

A very important book

A book that needs to be read in schools and by everyone who ever thought they knew the truth about Watergate

finally, the truth

never knew the whole truth but now we do! it is shameful that Watergate ended the way it didn't have to

Never trust the government

A fascinating review of Watergate, and the power-hungry Nixon haters that mounted a successful coup of the presidency. Perhaps now, 50 years after the fact, the truth will begin to be known.
