Watergate whistleblower, Deep Throat, was the final nail in the coffin for Nixon. MARTHA MITCHELL hammered in the FIRST, only to be gaslit, discredited & publicly shamed by Nixon & his aides.

🔥Easy or no, we must EACH be prepared to #DoTheRightThing🔥 allthatsinteresting.com/martha-mitchel…
Mitchell was ridiculed for calls to Washington press, her accusations of corruption in the Nixon Administration, & her charges that she was a “political prisoner” held captive in a hotel & drugged. Nixon admin encouraged questions of her sanity. In the end, she was proven correct
To this day, psychologists use the phrase “Martha Mitchell Effect” to refer to someone whose descriptions of real experiences are incorrectly labeled as 'delusions'.

We see a resurgence of this today, courtesy of constant gaslighting by Trump & his admin.

Mitchell died alone & destitute at 57, a rabid conservative who still DID THE RIGHT THING.

At her death, NY Times observed, “We didn’t listen to Martha Mitchell and we paid for it.”

Many are IGNORED TODAY regarding Trump, his admin, Kavanaugh

...and again, we will pay for it.
