coats: good morning, mr. attorney general, thank you very much for your leadership and inviting me to join you here today and working with you on the task force. you and i have served together in the united states senate, we served together now in the trump administration, and today we stand together to address an issue which both of us strongly believe needs to be addressed using the authorities of our respective agencies. over the past few months, i've had the privilege of working with the dedicated men and women of the intelligence community. i have seen firsthand the works that they do tirelessly and without fanfare to protect our country. i stand here today as their leader to express our grave concern that unauthorized disclosures of classified material and damaging our mission and jeopardizing the safety and security of the american public. in the last several years, the u.s. intelligence community has experienced some of the worst compromises of classified information in our nation's history. those dis

i want to thank director coats for being here. dan coat is one of the finest people i've ever known no public service since -- and i have tremendous respect. the task force was start note 2011 that has an important role to play and one we are taking seriously. progress has been made and we intend to reach new levels of effectiveness. first let me say that i strongly agree with the president and con tell in the strongest terms the staggering number of leaks undermining the ability of our government to protect this country. just yesterday we saw reports in the media about conversations the president had with foreign leaders. no one is entitled to surreptitiously fight to advance battles in the media by revealing sensitive government information. no government can be effective when its leaders cannot discuss sensitive matters into confidence or talk freely in confidence with foreign leaders. we are here today to talk about the dramatic growing in the number of unauthorized disclosures of classified national security information in th

tie, never take his suit coat off. president obama was much more informal. he would take his coat off. he was used to having a meeting with staff. with head of state always left his coat on. but much more informal. he would do things that weren't on the schedule all the time, and reagan pretty much stuck to his schedule. he was much younger than -- president obama was much younger than president reagan so he had a young family two young girls so that whole aspect of documenting that part of history. those kind of differences. one thing they were both similar in is they had similar dispositions in that took a lot to get ronald reagan mad or angry. same is true with president obama. not -- i saw both of them get mad and angry, but it would take a lot for that to happen. they both had this sort of even keel about them, that is probably the one similarity. >> host: on a typical day, could you go the entire day with president obama and basically never exchange words because you're both doing your jobs? >> guest: yeah. i did

ta-nehisi coates, it is great to spend this hour with you. i want to start by asking a response to what happened in charlottesville and then to president trump's actions in response. >> my response is that it is predictable. you had eight years before president trump, a situation where the opposition party basically ran in opposition to the president on a platform of thinly based racism. it doesn't mean the politicians themselves were outright racist, but when charges of birther-ism came up, knowing repudiated. when the house majority leader at the time, john boehner, claimed the president never worked a real job, knowing repudiated it. when newt gingrich called the president of the united states a foodstamp president, no one repudiated it. so you found yourself in a situation in the toy 16 election where all of that hate and all stoked theism party's base. the idea that president trump for the donald trump with them become president, that he would become the winning candidate does not surprise me at all. and that trump himself, the stoker of

the director of national intelligence dan coats will also speak at this news conference. it's not clear what jeff sessions may announce. a report written by republicans on the senate homeland security panel says the trump administration faced an alarming amount of media leaks which pose a potential threat to national security so we will hear what jeff sessions and dan coats have to say and deputy attorney general rob rosenstein. the president made mention of the pressure probe last night in west virginia and said it was fake news. anything does everything is all intertwined in washington today. let's check on the markets while we wait. julie: we've got the major averages hanging on to gains with the dow making another record today if it manages to eke out a game. it's up for the ninth straight session and it has not had a winning streak like that since february. we are not seeing blockbuster gains on the back of the jobs report. tostill feels relatively date with the vix back below 10 today. if you look at the bloomberg, lot of traders were talking about an uptick in the
