I am not familiar with all of these, but IIRC events like JFK and Watergate were both what I would call "Deep State" operatives. Save for Nixon's paranoia, Watergate was a 2 bit political scandal.
Broken Indian treaties and Justification of slavery were, sorry to say, Democratic programs. Jacksonian Democrats perpetuated the worst of these atrocities. Lincoln and his new Republican Party was instrumental to end slavery, but unfortunately Indian Treaties became "western" territorial issues.
Many have said that our worst scandal in history was Watergate, and if that is true, SpyGate is far worse, but that's only because the Media bought into the "single bullet theory."
