华盛顿——近两年来，司法部一直把调查那些曾调查过特朗普总统的人作为重点。如今，它开始回溯历史，考虑检察官是否不当对待了另一位共和党总统——理查德·尼克松。
WASHINGTON—For nearly two years, the Justice Department has made it a priority to investigate people who previously investigated President Trump. Now it is reaching back in history to consider whether prosecutors mistreated an earlier Republican president: Richard Nixon.
据知情人士透露，在这场丑闻导致尼克松辞职半个多世纪后，司法部仍在审查，负责调查臭名昭著的水门大厦窃听案的特别检察官办公室是否存在不当行为。
The department is reviewing whether the special prosecutor’s office that investigated the famed Watergate break-in committed misconduct, according to people familiar with the matter, more than half a century after that scandal led to Nixon’s resignation.
