"interesting that the u.s. started out picking Nicaragua as the location for their canal, and the French picked Panama. wonder how it'll go. i'm liking it so far, although there's some tangents of the biography of very minor characters that i could've done without / is fluff imo." — Aug 01, 2024 02:16PM

“It was 9:30 P.M., just an hour from deadline for the second edition. Woodward began typing:
A $25,000 cashier's check, apparently earmarked for the campaign chest of President Nixon, was deposited in April in the bank account of Bernard L. Barker, one of the five men arrested at the break-in and alleged bugging attempt at Democratic National Committee headquarters here June 17.
The last page of copy was passed to Sussman just at the deadline. Sussman set his pen and pipe down on his desk and turned to Woodward. 'We've never had a story like this,' he said. 'Just never.'
