Its an insiders view and im the insider so im responsible for all of the viewing. Lets take a quick review of the preceding nine presentations. I could try to convince you that this all made sense.

John dean the second surprising revelation who was the chief desk officer of the coverup and then switched sides to become the lead government witness, john was sentenced to 1 to 4 years in prison.
