This documentary spelled out clearly in chronological order how attempts were made to overthrow the President.
I'm amazed that after all this evidence, not a single person has been questioned or indicted regarding this coup attempt.
To anyone dismissing this remember it's all fun and games when it's against someone you dislike but history tells us these things will quickly turn against someone you do like, then it won't be so entertaining.

Having read some of Lee Smith's other books, I couldn't pass this up. This should be required viewing in the US today, as well as any other country where citizens may fear their government weaponizing the full force of the justice system and intelligence agencies against their fellow citizens for political gain.
Someday I hope to see a sequel where the perpetrators of this treason are brought to justice.
Applying the Washington Post slogan, every American should see this documentary to gain perspective and greater understanding of the "Russian collusion" narrative devised and manufactured to undermine and impeach President Donald J Trump.
Truth and justice were never served in that undertaking, and the cost paid by us all rocks the foundations of what makes America the greatest society in History.
Regardless of ones' political views, the truth of who was involved, the money trail, disregard for ethics, and manipulation of disinformation by political leaders and a largely biased news media deserves illumination for our all sakes, lest our Democracy indeed fades away into darkness.
Well-paced and avoiding tedium, this is a well-made documentary and is highly recommended viewing.

Very well done! Gives a lot of background and info on General Flynn I wasn't aware of until watching. Definitely recommend.
You have to be slightly politically twisted to follow who did what when. What drove the chain of events to get us where we are today. In a nutshell Trump was not supposed to win under any circumstances. In hindsight the Democrats had 4 or even 8 years to groom a better successor and instead they bet all their money on a very flawed horse. Hence the 2016 miracle or disaster...depending on which side you are on. Trump winning exposed so much of the way America thinks and works. Normal people like us feel as though what happens in the upper echelons of Govt doesn't really affect us. We need to think again. We have given up so much control to our Govt and have allowed the Intelligence Agencies to tighten its noose on our freedoms. Trump will either go in 2020 or 2024. If its 2020 those Intel Agencies can and will claim victory. After that things will return to normal and all will be quiet and happy. Its simple really...all we have to do is work and obey. Oh yes, by the way, it can always get worse...
