Wade effectively legalizes most early term abortions in the U.S.

United States v. Nixon 1974 Warren Burger At the height of the Watergate investigation the Supreme Court rules no person (even the President) is above the law The President cannot claim executive privilege and withhold evidence that is relevant in a criminal trial.
