jim comey's e-mail nails what i have been thinking about and pondering of late. there's a human aspect to intelligence work that gets lost in the public discussion. we're human, and when we forget that, when we're utterly certain about everything, when we stop questioning and stop listening to the people around us who see the world differently, wii more likely to make mistakes and poor decisions, that's what it means to be human. fans of "the amazing spider-man" loved peter parker because we can relate to his humanity. he struggles, he tries his best, he makes his takes, he learns from them, and he keens going. and he constantly tries to live up to the line that became his creed. with great power comes great responsibility. that line, so succinctly describes what the people in the intelligence community try to live up to every day. to show that we're worthy of america's trust and that we're worthwhile, because -- spoiler alert -- we are not comic book characters. we're americans working to protect our nation and at the same time, striving to live up to our nation

i believe jim comey will not be bullied by anybody. but everyone has a right to exercise their constitutional rights. but what it tells you is her answers continue to change. first no classified information. now no classified information that was marked as such. now we find out there was. it's because she won't answer any questions. it's the way she treated ed henry. i'll answer one question because that's what you are even titled to. thank you, your royal highness. martha: the question not of what was classified and what wasn't classified, but why did she have the server in the first place. if she's the guy who's supposed to go up to the house and plug in the server to make sure it works, he may have the answer to this. >> why did you have a private email server and conduct all your business over the private server, and why did you dleept emails when you knew the government was look for classified emails. and why would you allow the russians or chinese or an 18-year-old hacker off on a lark to be able to hack your email server. who th

as fbi director jim comey noted in his testimony in july, and i quote, the foreign terrorist thousand has direct access into the united states like never before, end quote. there are now horn 200 americans who have traveled or attempted to travel to syria to participate in the conflict and that remain as significant concern. i'd appreciate your assessment of the isil threat and threat to the united states from others, as well. of course when discussing that threat, we also have to recognize that due in part to leaks of classified information, improved operational security by terrorist frgroups, and availability of encrypted means of communications that cannot be collected, there is increasingly a limit on what nsa will be able to contribute. i know we'll have a chance to discuss that change. there are also numerous press reports in the past week or two suggesting that the administration is rethinking if support for any legislative solutions to this problem. we welcome your thoughts on how to approach the so-called going dark issue. and i think the more you can tell the public about it
