Why did Warren Harding not stop the scandal at its beginning?

History

Alex Ar [27]3 years ago

Answer:

Warren Harding didn’t care to get involved in the scandal and other scandals that occurred during his administration, but which were completely exposed after his death.

Investigations revealed that he knew about the scandal, but didn’t make any effort to expose and stop it because he was afraid it could affect his position as president.

Warren Harding’s reputation as president was tarnished because he put a lot of wrong people in positions of power. The members of Harding’s cabinet—known as the “Ohio Gang”—had many substantial allegations of corruption leveled against them.

At a certain time, worried president Harding informed a newspaper editor, William Allen White that, although he (Harding) could easily handle his enemies, he had problem handling his friends.

There is another incident which strongly supports the notion that Warren Harding didn’t care to get involved in the scandal: In June, 1923, while Harding was making a presidential visit to Alaska, he asked the Commerce Secretary at the time (Herbert Hoover), if he was aware of any great scandal in their administration, and whether the nation would benefit anything if he exposes, or buries it.

Hoover responded by advising the president (Harding) to expose any scandal, but Harding refused to do so because he was afraid of political repercussions.

Research on the song/music in the philippines similar to gregorian chant
vampirchik [111]

The song or music in the Philippines that are similar to Gregorian chant include Sacred Music of Luzon By Jacob Borja.

<h3>What is Gregorian chant?</h3>

The music of the church, Gregorian chant, originated in its liturgy. Its texts, which mostly come from the Psalter, are virtually exclusively taken directly from the Bible. Chant was traditionally performed as pure melody, in unison, and without instrumentation for centuries, and if at all feasible, this is still the finest method to do it.

The growth of polyphony was significantly influenced by Gregorian chant. Gregorian chant was originally sung in chapels by female and male members of religious orders or by male and female choirs of men and boys in churches. It is Roman Rite music, played during Mass as well as the monastic Office.

In this case, the song or music in the Philippines that are similar to Gregorian chant include Sacred Music of Luzon By Jacob Borja. This song illustrates the harmony and rhythm in the chants.

Presidential power often increases in response to a crisis such as the Civil War, The Great Depression, and 9/11. Do you think t
andrew-mc [135]

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.

Do you think the economic crisis that began in 2006 with the mortgage crisis has led to increased power for the presidency?

Not in that case. President Barack Obama faced one of his toughest decisions during the Freddie Mack crisis and the upcoming financial and Bank crisis in the United States. In the end, he decided to support the financial system, despite many medium and low-class Americans felt betrayed by the President's decision.

Do you think the current pandemic will result in increased presidential power?

It is probable that the actual President tries to increase his powers to make the kind of decisions needed to confront a health crisis that has turned to be an economic crisis that specialists say the US economy is in recession.

What kinds of increase in presidential power might come about as a result of such a crisis?

He can create the kind of legislation to help the country leave the economic crisis as soon as possible, knowing that he can use his veto power. As the commander in chief of the Armed Forces, he can send the national guard or some troops to reestablish the order in some regions of the country.

Do other branches of government also gain more power in such a crisis?

No, I don't think so. The President is the one who can increase his power during these difficult times over the judicial branch and the legislative branch.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Moderate delegates of Congress wanted peaceful reconciliation between the colonies and Parliament

↓

Congress sent the Olive Branch petition to King George III to help resolve conflicts between the colonies and Parliament

↓

King George III declared the colonies to be in rebellion

↓

Congress moved to issue a formal declaration of independence.

Explanation:

In 1774, the First Continental Congress sent a polite and respectful petition to King George III in order to inform him about the acts of oppression and to to repeal on those intolerable acts penetrated by the British Parliament.

But the outbreak of conflict at   Lexington and Concord in 1775 led the King to issue a proclamation that the colonies are in open rebellion to his authority and as a result of that will be severely punished.

So, in 1776, delegates from the thirteen colonies came to formally make a move for a declaration of independence.

Therefore, the above order in my answer is correct.
