Krogh threatened opponents of Nixon policies in 1970
Egil Bud Krogh Jr a Nixon aide who resigned amid Watergate was quoted in 1970 as saying any opponent of the president would be destroyed and any supporter would be destroyed. The remark came after a doctor warned against a White House narcotics office. Dr Daniel Freedman of the University of Chicago confirmed uneasy recollections but noted Krogh likely meant political opponents. The tale traces to passage of the Controlled Substances Act giving the attorney general authority over drug regulation.
