politician United States

Richard M. Nixon was the 37th President of the United States, serving from 1969 until his resignation in 1974 amid the Watergate scandal. A member of the Republican Party, Nixon previously served as Vice President under Dwight D. Eisenhower. His presidency was marked by significant events such as the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency, the normalization of relations with China, and the escalation of the Vietnam War. However, his legacy is primarily defined by the Watergate scandal, which involved a break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters and subsequent cover-ups by his administration. Facing impending impeachment, Nixon became the first U.S. president to resign from office, leaving a lasting impact on American politics and media relations.
