Johnson Keeps Mum Behind Guarded Retirement
Former President Lyndon B Johnson remains largely out of public view after leaving office in January. Reports from Texas and Washington describe him as calm and adjusted, with few public appearances due to security concerns and mixed public sentiment over Vietnam and race unrest. Johnson’s routines include a private shortwave radio and extensive communications systems on his Texas properties. Secret Service protection continues, reflecting the era’s security norms for former presidents.
