Here’s a fascinating old photo from President Ford’s Administration. It was taken on August 10th, 1974. That’s important because Nixon resigned the previous day (remember, Nixon’s not a crook). Is it just me, or does he seem to be a little too happy to be there? Maybe the expression on his face is more akin to “how the hell did I get here?”
