One thought on “Indy native Ruckelshaus, who defied Nixon in Watergate firing, dies

  1. It’s a shame my Republican Party no longer appears to have any William Ruckleshauses in this administration. People like Bill Barr, Pompeo and Mulvaney lack any ethical or moral compass and appear completely open to not only defending corrupt behavior but participating in it themselves. I so long for the integrity of people like Ruckleshaus.
