Full Story:



Despite initially denying any knowledge of the break-in, evidence gradually emerged indicating that Nixon had played a significant role in the cover-up that followed. The Watergate scandal became a political crisis that shook the foundations of American democracy, as the public became increasingly aware of the extent of the corruption and abuse of power that had taken place within the highest levels of government.


As the scandal unfolded, the media coverage became relentless, and public opinion turned sharply against Nixon. The House Judiciary Committee approved articles of impeachment against the president for obstruction of justice, abuse of power, and contempt of Congress. Rather than face certain impeachment and removal from office, Nixon chose to resign on August 8, 1974, becoming the first U.S. president ever to do so.


The Watergate scandal has become a symbol of political corruption and the dangers of unchecked presidential power. It led to numerous reforms to improve transparency and accountability in government, and to restore public trust in the American political system. Despite its painful legacy, the Watergate scandal remains a critical turning point in American history, serving as a reminder of the importance of democratic principles and the need for government to serve the public interest rather than the interests of a select few.

I was 12 years old when Nixon was impeached I had no idea what was going on I heard my mom or my sister say something about Watergate but I had no clue because I hardly watched the news now that I'm 62 as I watch this video documentary over and over and over again it's very intriguing and now I understand

You know the difference between Nixon and every other politician? Nixon actually did the right thing and left the office...all the others stayed like Clinton, Biden, etc.

Of all the bad things he did, this was what he was fired for?

[joemurdoch]

Four of the seven who broke in were cia, Woodward was a former naval intelligence officer who was into his second year as a reporter, and their informant was FBI..

[SiddhantSarde]

What's the point of his vp to charge then immediately pardoned Nixon?

[LiterallyRyan_Gosling]

Great president with one big mistake, still one of my favorites among Lincoln and Teddy Roosevelt

[duyphan]

Watergate was bad and does diminish a lot of the good.

[bryangriffin]

All the videos I’m watching about Nixon and Watergate. I think there was valid reason to look into the Democrats. They’ve been shady for years sometimes you gotta do some bad things to help the good things along and he stood for peace and freedom. Most presidents don’t these days they don’t have the balls.

[LittleLion-Bfd]

He was very close to the mafia..not a nice person

[JetHistorian-vvji]

[ianorndorff]

If something like this happened today with Trump, like the same exact scenario, people would defend him till their death and say it’s all lies 😂
