Explanation:

During his presidency, Nixon made multiple recordings of his conversations for a future memoir. These tapes were vital evidence in the aftermath of the Watergate scandal. After Congress was informed of the taping system within the White House, a subpoena was issued to retrieve these tapes. Nixon refused to turn over the tapes, claiming that executive privilege allowed him to keep them secret.
