'"The whole thing is incredible," she acknowledged to David Frost in a September 1974 BBC TV interview. "It's like reading a James Bond novel. You can't believe it. I can't believe what's happened to me."
'Years after her death, Harvard psychologist Brendan Maher used her name to describe a psychological phenomenon: the Martha Mitchell effect, wherein a patient's outlandish but real experiences are misdiagnosed as delusions. But it wasn't until recently that the significance of her Watergate interventions, erratic and self-interested though they sometimes were, started to be properly acknowledged.'

The Nixon White House ran on fear and backroom deals. John Dean was inside all of it. And he gave us the full story.

May 17, 1973 - In Washington, D.C., the Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities, headed by Senator Sam Ervin of North Carolina, began televised hearings on the escalating Watergate affair. One week later, Harvard Law Professor Archibald Cox was sworn in as Watergate special prosecutor.
Flashback: On June 17, 1972, five men were arrested for breaking into the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate complex in Washington, D.C. with the intent to set up wiretaps. One of the suspects, James W. McCord, Jr., was revealed to be the salaried security coordinator for President Richard Nixon's reelection committee.

I really don't like John Dean. Dude has remade himself into an "expert" on scandals and corruption as a successful author who MSNBC and CNN love to bring in so he can call whatever is happening "Worse Than Watergate" but like, that doesn't mean he wasn't guilty as fuck in Watergate.

You're not a #BabyBoomer if you don't have a visceral recollection of a #KennedyAssasination and a #KingAssassination, a #BeatlesBreakup, a U.S. defeat in #Vietnam, and a #Watergate. -- P. J. O'Rourke

#JEdgarBoozer #Patel... the former Podcaster turned #FBI Director... was quite open about his drinking before #DisasterDon was elected to a second term, and now denies all the reports about his excessive drinking are true.
But an EVEN MORE disturbing report about #MafiaDon's FBI (if that's even possible) is that they have assembled a #PaybackSquad to go after his political enemies. 😒
I keep thinking back to how aghast people were during #Watergate to find out Nixon had an "enemies list".

Amidst his presidency-defining #Watergate scandal #RichardNixon felt compelled to state "I am not a crook" in a televised address that went down in history. He was forced to resign in disgrace less than a year later. #EpsteinFiles #Epstein #Trump #America

Very similar to Nixon's ratings in August 1973 at the end of Watergate Hearings but prior to VP Spiro Agnew's resignation. #uspol #uspolitics #Trump #Watergate

Most political memoirs make the author look good. Dean's book makes him look human. That is what makes it so powerful.

John Dean sat inside the Nixon White House and watched it all fall apart. Then he wrote it down. This book hits hard.
