Answer:  a COVER-UP

Context/detail:

"Watergate" was the scandal in which persons working for President Nixon's reelection campaign committed crimes to spy on their opponents at Democratic party headquarters, and then efforts were made to cover up those crimes.  Nixon didn't directly order the break-ins and spying attempts, but he did order the cover-up of his administration's connections to those activities.

The first break-in attempt by burglars working on Nixon's behalf occurred  in May, 1972, as persons connected to the Nixon reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee office in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, DC.  They were planting wire-taps on the Democrats' phone lines, and also stole copies of documents.  When the wire-taps didn't work properly, they broke in again (in June) to try to fix the surveillance devices, but they were caught.

Nixon's role in Watergate was especially in his efforts and those of members of his staff to cover up what had happened.  Ultimately, the Watergate affair brought down the Nixon presidency.  He resigned in order to avoid impeachment.  And the whole affair made Americans more distrusting of government.

Serving 25 consecutive terms in the US House of Representatives, Carl Vinson was credited for helping to strengthen national def
Ann [662]
Carl Vinson was very supportive of the US Navy. The first option choice is false, other branches of the US military never lost their funding because of the US Navy. The second choice is kind of true because better ships were built that required fewer people but that wasn't really the major impact. The third answer choice is partially true because Carl Vinson did double the size of the US Navy but other countries still were a threat to the US so this point is false. The last answer choice is true because Carl Vinson's work in naval expansion helped defend Pearl Harbor when it was attacked. The major impact was the last choice. Therefore, the answer is the last choice.

Which action represents a break with George Washington's policies?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

B. Close diplomatic ties with Great Britain and France

Explanation:

George Washington is widely known as the first president of the United States. He ruled the nations between 1789 to 1797. He was known to have many peculiar policies he beloved in governing the country. Among which are:

1. an amendment limiting the president to two terms in office

2. Moving the U.S. capital from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C.

3. Voters registering as independent rather than of any political party

However, he believed that having close diplomatic ties with Great Britain and France will only make the United States to be involved in their cycle of wars and having unnecessary loyalty to either of them.
