NO.
In order to do anything you need the assistance of the Justice Department or the congress. Neither were available until public opinion forced them into action. That's how corrupted the Federal Government had become under Nixon and how complacent the majority of the public was.
Remember it wasn't just Deep Throat's information, it had to be correlated with others.
Nixon was chased out but the corruption lingers and sadly the complacency grows.
