Here is what I found:
he Foraker Act, Pub.L. 56–191, 31 Stat. 77, enacted April 12, 1900, officially known as the <span>Organic Act of 1900</span>, is a United States federal law that established civilian (albeit limited popular) government on the island of Puerto Rico, which had recently become a possession of the United States as a result of the Spanish–American War. Section VII of the Foraker Act also established Puerto Rican citizenship.[1] President William McKinley signed the act on April 12, 1900[2] and it became known as the Foraker Act after its sponsor, Ohio Senator Joseph B. Foraker. Its main author has been identified as Secretary of War Elihu Root.
The new government had a governor and an 11-member executive council appointed by the President of the United States, a House of Representatives with 35 elected members, a judicial system with a Supreme Court and a United States District Court, and a non-voting Resident Commissioner in Congress.
The Executive council was all appointed: five individuals were selected
from Puerto Rico residents while the rest were from those in top
cabinet positions, including attorney general and chief of police (also
appointed by the President). The Insular Supreme Court was also
appointed. In addition, all federal laws of the United States were to be
in effect on the island. The first civil governor of the island under
the Foraker Act was Charles H. Allen, inaugurated on May 1, 1900 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This law was superseded in 1917 by the Jones–Shafroth Act.
The eventual outcome was that Richard Nixon resigned as President.
Context/explanation:
The first break-in by burglars was in May, 1972, as persons connected to the Nixon reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee office in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, DC. They were planting wire-taps on the Democrats' phone lines, and also stole copies of documents. When the wire-taps didn't work properly, they broke in again (in June) to try to fix the surveillance devices, but they were caught.
The burglars were part of an organization known as the "plumbers," who originally were a "special investigations" unit that the Nixon White House had set up in 1971 to stop the leaking of classified information. Members of this group were those then later involved in the Watergate break-in (among other activities).
"Deep Throat" was the name given to an inside source at the FBI that gave information concerning Watergate to reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post. Years later it was revealed that Deep Throat was Mark Felt, who at the time was Associate Director of the FBI.
Nixon's role in Watergate was especially in his efforts and those of members of his staff to cover up what had happened.
Ultimately, the Watergate affair brought down the Nixon presidency. He resigned in order to avoid impeachment. And the whole affair made Americans more distrusting of government.
