but one of those pardons was john deutch.doned saturday morning so that monday morning there was no plea agreement to file. therefore, on that thin read, you were allowed to say the sentence that no one has ever faced criminal charges in a case like this. >> unfortunately, for james comey, though, he knew. >> what he said is correct. >> i know it was correct but he knew that deutch had agreed to a plea deal. >> i wouldn't be surprised if that gets explored at the hearing. >> how could james comey. unless james comey wanted an excuse to let her off. how could he -- >> what he said was true. >> i understand that. >> it was a carefully phrased statement. >> at the same time he could say john deutch did have to plea to this. he was pardoned before the plea deal went in. comey knows that. >> it's the kind of thing, it's one of the reasons we don't take questions in that particular and it's one of those things that is kind of forgotten. one of the forgotten stories. i didn't hear anybody say about john deutch. what about john deutc

former cia director john deutch took home classified information and faced misdemeanor charges because like hillary clinton no intent was found. >> to say there is no precedent is no different than saying there is no different to prosecute her. if no one has been charged because of e-mail security issues and e-mail security has only come into the fore in the last few years, should not have been an obstacle in this particular case. >> reporter: the attorney generals loretta lynch was scheduled to testify next week. lynch's meeting last week with bill clinton, hillary clinton's interview saturday and director comey's public announcement three days later, the same day clinton campaigned with the president. tom? >> great information. thank you, catherine herridge. speculation running rampant over who donald trump will choose to be his running mate? trump reportedly gave senator joni ernst of iowa a primetime speaking slot at the republican convention and trump appearing at the cincinnati campaign rally with newt gingrich. carl cameron is traveling with trump and has our report. >> reporter

was any analogy to be drawn between her situation and david petraeus or the former cia director john deutchlains that even though he previously said there appeared to be some e-mails that had markings on them, that those documents were improperly marked and that even someone who was well steeped in classification rules might look at that document and not judge it to be classified. so on one point after another, i felt like he actually fleshed out some of his points from the other day and a lot of apparent contradictions between what he said at the press conference and what hillary clinton has been saying all along were actually squared. john: brian, again, let me come back to some of the things -- there were an awful lot of where what the committee found or what the fbi found and what secretary clinton has claimed for a long time -- that all the e-mails were turned over, that although on the classification markings you are , right there was some clarification brought to bear, still claims that dozens upon dozens of what should have been classified were still -- how do you deal with donald t

it turns out the most important pardon bill clinton issued was john deutch, the same who he appointed director of cia five years earlier, after he left the cia, they discovered that his home computer and laptop contained classified material. no one was quite sure what to make of that at the time. it didn't seem like a big deal to me at that time, which was a long time ago. john deutsch was probably the first cia director afterto send or receive an e-mail. it was the dawn of e-mail use in government in the mid 1990s. in one report on the case, the washington post described john deutsch's problem as "keeping secrets on his unsecured home computers, which were linked to the internet." . most home computers were not even linked to the internet back then that's how long ago this was. the pardon was not universally regarded as one of the scandalous pardons. he was an mit professor who served who was generally regarded as an well intentioned good guy. it appeared that he hit a trip wire that no one realized was there legally, what does the age of the home computer mean to the proper custody

. >> but there was some -- i guess i go, what about the comparison to john deutch, former cia director who was housing it on an insecure computer. that was among the reasons why he got charged with a misdemeanor. >> in the deutch case versus others who have been looked at for, if you will, the unnecessary or inadvertent disclosure of information, that's taking the material out of the network, whatever network it is. >> she took the material out of the network by having it on this private server. >> but he knew what he had on his server was marked from the very beginning of the moment as a classified piece of information. and what we now know from secretary clinton and also from now fbi director is that these are not, a, marked the way people think. they look at the tv shows and movies and see that big red stamp that says top secret. we have documents that are not marked -- >> some were, like the way -- >> you've clarified or released the statement. >> it's not an easy way to clarify. >> so here's what happens in classification. you have an entire document that can have that very bright

i have enormous confidence john and his leadership team will produce what they need to produce for deutched a number of institutions. >> take time. what are we eight years past the crisis at this point? you know, our banks kind of -- to our credit we had stress tests early, we dealt with the issues. we instilled some confidence. they had stress tests years ago, nobody believed them. hasn't there been enough time? >> you're absolutely right about the u.s. kudos to hank paulson, who took action at the time. the eu couldn't act with the same sort of force and focus at the time, they're trying to do banking union at the same time, which is not finished. i think what's what we need to see is a full-scale program across europe, we need fiscal, structure support, and the bcb needs to think about how effective their monetary policy is with respect to rates and what it means for bank prof profitabili profitability. >> it hurts them a lot. how much time do they have? despite every day, when a share price moves lower, that's capital walking out the door. at sometime, you cry uncle. >> time is ticking
