On 10/15/73, his DOJ filed a massive civil rights suit against: Donald J. Trump, the 27-year-old president of Trump Management, Inc which was systematically "discriminating against black persons" trying to rent in their buildings

History doesn't always repeat, but it can predict

[Mike Yarvitz @mikeyarvitz]

Interesting historical tidbit: the Nixon impeachment effort began after AG Elliot Richardson was forced out in the Saturday Night Massacre on 10/20/73.

Just 10 days prior (10/10/73), Richardson convicted Nixon's corrupt VP Spiro Agnew.

What did he do in the 10 days in between?
