Corrections: Richard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 – April 22, 1994) was an American politician, lawyer, and author who served as the 37th president of the United States from 1969 to 1974. In this episode, I say Nixon was president in 1967 and started the War on Drugs, however, it was President Lyndon B. Johnson was president at that time and only laid the framework for the War on Drugs by signing into law LEAA which established the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 and was abolished in 1982. Its predecessor agency was the Office of Law Enforcement Assistance (1965–1968). Its successor agencies were the Office of Justice Assistance, Research, and Statistics. These offices laid the foundation for President Nixon to carry out his War on Poverty and Drugs.
