The story
On the morning of December 21, 1970, actor-singer Elvis Presley arrives at the White House and requests an urgent meeting with President Richard Nixon.
Presley opposes the drug culture, the hippie movement, SDS, and the Black Panther Party; he wants Nixon to swear him in as an undercover agent in the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.
Two of Nixon's senior aides, Dwight Chapin and Egil Krogh, set up a meeting between the two men.
