The means used to implement this course of conduct or plan included one or more of the following:

employees of the United States;
3. approving, condoning, acquiescing in, and counselling
witnesses with respect to the giving of false or misleading statements

United States and false or misleading testimony in duly instituted
judicial and congressional proceedings;
4. interfering or endeavouring to interfere with the

Special Prosecution Force, and Congressional Committees;
5. approving, condoning, and acquiescing in, the
surreptitious payment of substantial sums of money for the purpose of
obtaining the silence or influencing the testimony of witnesses,
potential witnesses or individuals who participated in such unlawful
entry and other illegal activities;
6. endeavouring to misuse the Central Intelligence Agency, an agency of the United States;
7. disseminating information received from officers of the
Department of Justice of the United States to subjects of
investigations conducted by lawfully authorized investigative officers
and employees of the United States, for the purpose of aiding and

8. making or causing to be made false or misleading public
statements for the purpose of deceiving the people of the United States
into believing that a thorough and complete investigation had been
conducted with respect to allegations of misconduct on the part of
personnel of the executive branch of the United States and personnel of
the Committee for the Re-election of the President, and that there was
no involvement of such personnel in such misconduct: or
9. endeavouring to cause prospective defendants, and
individuals duly tried and convicted, to expect favoured treatment and
consideration in return for their silence or false testimony, or

In all of this, Richard M. Nixon has acted in a manner contrary to his
trust as President and subversive of constitutional government, to the
great prejudice of the cause of law and justice and to the manifest
injury of the people of the United States.
Wherefore Richard M. Nixon, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office.
