OfficialHDtrailerz There's a pretty good documentary on Netflix called "1971" about activists who broke into an FBI office and stole documents to expose the government's corruption. It's not about Watergate, but it definitely led up to Watergate. The secrets they expose are shocking. It will make you really question your government if you don't already.
Not a code name, a name attached to him by a fellow journalist because of his penchant for providing information on a what is referred to as "deep cover" or clandestine basis. It was somewhat of a internal WP joke that stuck.

The WATERGATE SCANDAL HOW THE MAFIA DOMESTIC TIED INTERNATIONAL SNUCK THE UNLAWFULL IN THE LEGAL, PORNEA ADULTRY & IDOLITRY THROUGH THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY, EXP0SED 21ST-CENTURY ❤💯🎬
“Yeah Sir, You Might Want To Send A Maintenance Man Over To That Office Across The Way. The Lights Are Off and They Must Be Looking For A Fusebox, cause them flashlights, they keeping me awake” - Forrest Gump
You know, when I watch the movie with Anthony Hopkins playing "Nixon" and I see what this man suffered when he went down on his knees with Kissinger you can't help but feel sympathy. They were so worried and I quote them "what have we done" They worried about the country Falling apart. Well, our country did not fall apart did it? - The Watergate scandal was nothing compared to what is happening today in DC. And the MEDIA took them out not Watergate scandal. Scandals go on everywhere and all the time. It just TAKES A MEDIA to pick and chose which scandal when bring more eyes to your television screen. There are more scandalous goings on within the our walls of our media probably. And Nixon was not an evil bastard. I was in Washington in 1973 and people were not talking about this stuff. The public forgets....Look they forgot our Vietnam soldiers when they came home. Now that is SCANDALOUS isn't it!!!
+Terri Robison Well, in the long run, Watergate did have a pretty lasting impact. It completely destroyed every shred of trust the American people had on their government, which is something that still impacts us today.
@@MrConstantine02 THIS!!! The og commenter is rlly saying that this wasn’t a scandal, when the President of the United States conducted a burglary in order to win. This & the way the President’s handled the Vietnam War, shred e trust from the Americans in the government.
I never learned about the watergate scandal not even in my college government. But hey thats why we have the internet for the most part we see the truth
efnarios White House Administration was spying on the democratic party and american people. That was a big deal for that time. So his impeachment was started. But he resigned before the impeachment process completed.
Ah yes, the fed op where they willingly let in people and did nothing in the senate hall except talk and walk around and taking the podium as a trophy @@ronaldomontero3624
@jayennz We are happy to hear that you enjoy these videos on politics and history! Feel free to browse through our catalogue and also to suggest anything we may have missed.
We STILL do not know WHY they broke in in the first place... They wanted to plant evidence? They wanted to find or plant dirt (sounds familiar)? They needed to go to the bathroom? What?
An interesting thing happened during the arrest of the burglars that was overlooked for many years. As the cops are lining up the burglars to search them, feet spread, hands against the wall, one of them does a very strange thing- and he's lucky he doesn't get himself killed over it. From behind, one of the cops (Carl Shoffler) can see Eugenio Martinez slipping a hand inside his jacket. For all Shoffler knows, he's going for a gun. Shoffler slams Martinez in the back, shouting at him not to move. When Martinez tries it again Shoffler grabs him and wrestles him to the ground. Then he searches him to see what was so important to risk his life for. In the breast pocket of Martinez's suit coat , Shoffler finds a notebook with a small key taped to the back of it. As the FBI will later determine, the key fits the lock to the desk of one of the DNC secretaries, Ida Maxine Wells. The FBI didn't check the desk before it was too late to see what was in it. As to how the key was obtained that also is still a mystery. This all was reported in books years later along with the theory that a call girl ring had something to do with the motive of the burglary. The key and notebook never came up during the Watergate hearings because they were interested in the cover-up aspect, not the reason for the break-in.
And in the beginning, people thought this would all blow over and Nixon did nothing wrong. You know what they say: Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Eric Forman (Topher Grace): *nude with a Richard Nixon mask on* ✌️✌️ Wee wee, pee pee! Wee Wee! Pee pee! ...Ahhhhh! *runs out of the assembly hall as the government agents chase after him* Red Forman (Kurtwood Smith): Hey, Gerry. Here's my question...how the hell could you pardon Nixon?
@@toastwrld1365 nah just bats and locks in socks and Molotov cocktails. they knew police would stop them before they could destroy towns if they brought guns.
Johnny Campfire I'm guessing you wanted him fired, right up until the point Trump fired him. Then you didn't think he should be fired. Liberals go whichever the way the wind blows.
Comey's FBI makes J Edgar Hoover's look fair and reputable. He was extremely corrupt whether it was signing FISAs, creating fake investigations and illegally exonerating Hilary Clinton before ever investigating.

its a movie about it going on in real life right now lol im sure watching it play out every morning lol
There is a very good 1976 movie that was made about Watergate starring Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman. The title is "All the President's Men".
StrangerinKiki: I'll look forward to watching it, thanks for the info.
Why? It's already happening again in real life in 2017
Why did I never learn about this in history class? I've always heard references, but, never the explanation. Damn.
for real... watchmojo taught me more than history class did
Me too...that's why I looked it up...I've always heard about it but knew nothing other than "it was a scandal"
@@beyonceknowlescarter9576 exactly
That on purpose it’s the same reason we don’t learn about Vietnam
Probably cuz some dumb dumb named himself deep throat. And the teachers just couldn't get the students to get through it when they tried lol
"Deep Throat"??? what kind of code name is that?
That user is absolutely beautiful :3

Monica Lekinsky's one
He was named like that because a porn movie was hitting the cinemas at the time. Called "deepthroat"
Deep Throat was a name from a porn movie of the time, so it's not like they didn't know or anything, it was implied.
Oh wow 😂
Also in Metal Gear Solid on PS1.

Thanks Forrest Gump

I was today years old when I learned that Watergate had nothing to do with Water, gates, or a Dam,..
You should know that its probably not a good idea when one of your key players is named "Deep Throat"
Nixon: 'I am not a crook'
Trump: 'Hold My Beer'
Trump wasn't even as bad Nixon.

A nice and short video. Just what I was looking for .... Not a 2 hour documentary
Trump makes the watergate scandal look like a an inconsequential thing
i cant believe how similar all of this is to whats goin on today. spying on the democrats, hush money, flipped lawyer... wow
And in the beginning, people thought this would all blow over and Nixon did nothing wrong. You know what they say: Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.
Darkness what an idiotic statement
haha "deep throat"
Have seen few videos on this...but yet to come across a simplified version on Watergate...? What was this issue..
Obama watched this and said hold my beer while I make watergate look like child's play.
Justin Facer then trump said the same thing after obama.
Isn't Trump under investigation?
thank you this will help me for my history final in a few hours!!
what did you get for that test
So true. There's always someone who tells. Specially today any newspaper would pay very good money for a story of that magnitude.
Ya got caught this time applies .. this shit goes down all the time

What is the ambient song in the background?
So essentially a light version of everything being done by democrats today
Holy shit, the similarities between the Nixon scandal and Trump are fucking scary as shit.
THANKS A LOT FOREST!
Lolllll I know exactly what you mean
So does water gate have anything to do with water?? 😂
political drama is a novel that writes itself
CIA orchestrated this
"I'm not a crook"! 😆 most crooks say that!
This guy makes Trump look like a saint.
2:41 is that Barr?
Thanks I have a rhetorical essay on this
Why tf did I always assume watergate was about flint Michigan
Same thing’s about to happen to the Democrats and Hillary
Yay! I can watch WatchMojo and study for my History test at the same time!
All these years, I thought Watergate scandal is about a construction of a huge dam that they corrupted the funds 🤦
damn did not expect to learn about watergate on watchmojo
I feel like this is low bar for the nonsense we’e had for the last 10 years.
Nixon would of wished to have Johnny deps lawyers to help him fight this case lol
high powered people can do what they want, pathetic
Tipsy and curious. So all I got from this video was that this was a big ass hot ass MESS. Embarrassing.
The TV show Timeless is making an episode about this.
Nashelie Sanchez that sounds good.
Nashelie Sanchez that was a really good episode
So what? The NSA is listening to the whole world's conversations
If this happened in 2020 Republicans would fight for there guy and everyone would forget about it.
Finally, I can understand one more part of forest gump
Yep me too
Deep throat lol u Kno what he was thinking about!!
Deep throat 😂🙅♂️
3:04 I thought Deepthroat was Gray Fox?!
Really helpful thank you
WatchMojo made educational videos?
Nixon did nothing wrong
If you are using this for your history test, good luck the second time you take that course. This is not exactly educational lol.
This makes me hungry for Watergate Salad...
What crime was the Special Prosecution considering against President Nixon? Please I need help with this
It was going to be obstructing justice. Having the CIA interfere in the FBI investigation.
Thanks to Mr Forrest it was caught
Crazy fact forrest gump was the reason he got caught.
Gump is not mentioned once?!
Makes you think about 9/11 and the convenient official report.
Anybody else sings Richard Nixon looks like his face is melting
When you go to WatchMojo for important historical events...
Wikilealks emails history repeats itself
Nixon was not the first but the only one to get caught
Oh man!
The video you guys make for THIS administration is going to have to be WAY longer!
Not nearly as long as the one for our current administration
man, Hunt takes out kennedy and this too? Man.
The Nixon Situation is Crazy
"Deep throat" little did they know what that would mean in the futura.
