In the <em>Declaration of Independence</em>, Thomas Jefferson expressed various grievances of the colonists against the British, such as:
- The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
- The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
- The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
- The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
- The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
- The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
- The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.
There were more items listed by Jefferson, but you get the idea. He was justifying revolution by proving tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy.

Lee Harvey Oswald was responsible for killing/shooting John F. Kennedy.
He went to Texas to raise more Democratic Party presidential campaign funds, wanted to begin his little 'quest' for reelection, and because the Kennedy-Johnson ticket just barely won Texas.
The Supreme Court's decision in the United States v. Nixon resulted in Nixon's impeachment because of his involvement in the Watergate scandal which resulted in Nixon delivering tape recordings and other materials to a federal district court.
Hope this helps!
