Just food for thought. I do not yet feel confident about the reasons Nixon was removed. I'm no expert on Nixon, since I'm such a baby (and pretty) and didn't really live through those times with my full brain intact.
But I've always heard that Nixon was hated by the commies/derps due to his anti-communist activies re: Whitaker Chambers/Joe McCarthy, etc.
I've heard it said that taking Nixon out was revenge.
Maybe as simple as that?
p.s. Hillary was on the Congressional impeachment staff.
Coincidence?
Maybe some of the old people can shed some light?

In perhaps its most famous investigation, HUAC-member Richard Nixon, after weeks of dramatic hearings, was, at the final hour, able to reveal that Alger Hiss, a former State Department official, had lied to them about having “ever been a Communist.”

the committee itself was renamed the House Internal Security Committee in 1969, prefiguring its eventual abolition in 1975.
