Another secret assault on civil liberties was Nixon’s adoption of the “Huston Plan” which authorized political surveillance by burglary, electronic eavesdropping, and the use of the military to spy on civilians. Nixon used these methods against political opponents, journalists, and government employees suspected of disloyalty to the president.
对公民自由的另一个秘密破坏是尼克松采纳“休斯顿计划”。这一计划授权通过入室行窃、电子窃听以及对平民使用军队监视来进行政治性侦察。尼克松针对政敌、记者、以及被怀疑对总统不忠的政府雇员使用这些方法。
