The major political scandal of Ronald Reagan's second term revolved around the Iran-Contra affair. It involved senior officials within Reagan's administration secretly selling weapons to Iran in exchange for the release of American hostages, and then using the proceeds from those sales to fund rebels in Nicaragua, in violation of U.S. law. Although Reagan denied knowledge of the details, the scandal severely damaged his administration's credibility.
