The Iran-Contra affair wasn't just a scandal—it was a blueprint for circumventing democracy.
In the mid-1980s, officials in the Reagan White House ran a covert operation that sold weapons to Iran (then under an arms embargo), funneled the profits to Nicaraguan rebels (in direct violation of congressional law), and created a shadow government operating outside constitutional oversight.
This 40-second mini-documentary examines how the National Security Council, led by Oliver North, laundered millions through offshore accounts, shredded evidence when caught, and faced almost no consequences—raising questions about accountability that echo into today's political landscape.
What you'll learn: → How the operation actually worked → Why Congress had explicitly banned Contra funding → The constitutional crisis that followed exposure → Why so few faced real consequences
