E02: Leaks and Limitations –– Nixon's Early Frustrations

  • サマリー

  • In response to foreign policy leaks and other concerns early in his presidency, Nixon pushed his intelligence agencies, much like his predecessor once did, to produce intel through warrantless surveillance. This episode, we meet the president's inner circle –– Henry Kissinger, John Mitchell, Bob Haldeman, and John Ehrlichman –– and we examine how then recent scandals involving the FBI and CIA had given rise to new laws on domestic surveillance that caused both agencies to impose limitations on how far they were willing to go in order to accommodate demands made by the Nixon team as they tried to grapple, first, with leaks and, then, with the growing number of bombings carried out by antiwar radical groups.
