David Priess on "The President's Book of Secrets"

Published: Nov. 4, 2016, 7:02 p.m.

Two weeks ago, Lawfare\u2019s Jack Goldsmith sat down with David Priess at the Hoover Institution for a Hoover Book Soiree on Priess\u2019s new book, The President\u2019s Book of Secrets: The Untold Story of Intelligence Briefings to America\u2019s Presidents from Kennedy to Obama.\xa0While the book is framed as a study of the history of the President\u2019s Daily Brief, it\u2019s also a history of the American intelligence community since WWII and a history of how presidents deal with intelligence organizations.

Consider this\xa0Lawfare's gift to you: you don't have to suffer through yet another podcast about what's going to happen on November 8th. We're all stressed and stir-crazy over here, too. Take a listen to the podcast and give yourself a break from worrying.\xa0
