History

Historical Context

The Watergate scandal began on June 17, 1972, when members of President Nixon's re-election campaign were caught breaking into the Democratic National Committee headquarters. Nixon's subsequent cover-up efforts led to his resignation on August 9, 1974, and over 40 indictments. This pivotal event eroded public trust in government, a sentiment echoed today amid ongoing political controversies involving figures like George Santos and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
