“I want you to direct the most trusted person you have in the immigration service that they are to look over all of the activities of the Los Angeles Times - - all, underlined to see whether they are violating the wetback thing... Otis Chandler - - I want him checked with regard to his gardener. I understand he’s a wetback. We’re going after the Chandlers, every one, individually, collectively, their income tax. They’re starting this week. Every one of those sons of bitches. Is that clear?”

Article 2 of the Impeachment of Richard Nixon may be of interest if anyone wants to look at actual facts from history.
