Description:

"During the early years of the Nixon presidency, there was serious and lengthy discussion about using illegal means to get national security information from American citizens. On several occasions, wiretaps were placed without warrants.... We made our decisions in an emergency context. The nation faced serious foreign policy threats from the Vietnam War and the Soviet Union, while the White House staff struggled with President Nixon's penchant for secrecy, his fury at those who leaked classified documents, and his orders to investigate relentlessly those individuals he felt would compromise national security."
