‘Subverting America’

“What would constitute tyranny in the United States? It would involve reducing Congress to a peripheral role in making Government policy, discrediting the political opposition, suppressing the more aggressive forms of dissent, intimidating television, radio and the press, staffing the courts with one’s own supporters, and centralizing all of the executive power in the hands of the President and his totally dependent aides.”

New York Times editorial, June 17, 1973
