Watergate Challenge: Scandal, but No Ties to President Nixon

Watergate is what brought down Nixon, as everyone knows. And Watergate was not alone in the many scandalous activities being undertaken by the Nixon White House. As such, there is a thought that had the Watergate break in been uncovered, it was only a matter of time before something being done by the Nixon White House which was scandalous was discovered, which would have still forced Nixon's impeachment or resignation.

The challenge here is not to avoid the Watergate break in. The challenge is to have all the "if the president does it, it's not illegal" activities undertaken by the Nixon administration go on just as they did, but to avoid them being linked directly to Nixon, or avoid them being known to be of such a degree as to force Nixon to resign or be impeached. Preferably to this challenge, the scandal still erupts just as Watergate did, with people being charged and punished or forced to resign, but with Nixon being able to avoid it being tied to him, or the situation just simply not being tied to him, thus saving Nixon from impeachment or being forced to resign.
