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.

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!!!

Have seen few videos on this...but yet to come across a simplified version on Watergate...? What was this issue..

Good segment. More like these, please.

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.

Really helpful thank you
