The premise of the show will throw light on the Watergate scandal, which happened in the United States. It is one of the biggest political events in the history of the country. It was based around the administration of President Richard Nixon from the year 1972 to 1974.
Although, the entire thing led to his resignation from the post. It all started when the office was trying to cover up its involvement in the Democratic National Committee break-in, which happened in 1972. The event took place at the headquarters in Washington in the Watergate Building Office.
Five perps were caught at that time. Department of Justice got involved in the same and found out that the cash they had on them at the time was somehow linked to the Committee for the Re-election of the President. Soon, a thorough investigation was organized, and even the burglars in question were put on trial to find out the entire truth of the situation.
White House Plumbers Episode Details
It was about time that various witnesses showed up in order to confirm that it was Nixon who wanted to cover up his office’s involvement in the entire break-in case. It turns out that there was a voice-activated taping system located inside the Oval Office. While the entire investigation was going on, the Constitution saw a huge crisis.
The office held by Nixon denied their involvement in any way, but that was definitely jotted what the claims had said. Thus, the Senate Watergate hearings became the biggest news for the two years, and it even was broadcast live on TV as the public had too much interest in the whole case.
As the case evolved slowly, there were various presidential actions found which were immoral on Nixon’s behalf. Thus, a whole impeachment process started off against Nixon. The US Supreme Court asked Nixon to release the Oval Office Tapes to the investigators who were searching the whole thing.
These tapes revealed new information, which confirmed that he had his involvement with the break-in and tried to cover up the blame by using federal officials. There were three articles of impeachment started against Nixon. These were obstruction of Justice as well as Abuse of Power and Contempt of Congress.
