have arrived in italy. the majority of those are from tunisia or neighbouring libya. nicky schiller reporting there. us presidentjoe biden has signed an executive order that will ban certain us investments in sensitive technology in china. it's the latest twist in us—china tensions and comes at a time when china's economic growth is slowing sharply. the economy is now slipping into deflation, when prices fall rather than go up. it can erode profits and depress business confidence. there've been a slew of data released this week — injuly, prices in china fell by 0.3% compared to a year before. a crisis in the property sector and high youth unemployment are some of the factors why people are not spending money. trade data was also released this week, and it showed
prosecutors. he just said he will not stop talking about this case. on the other hand you have a justice department who wants to zealously protect their evidence and a whole slew of witnesses. how does this play out? >> i can't predict exactly, alicia, what's going to happen. i will tell you how routine it is for a protective order in this courthouse and many others like it. it is a standard procedure that you're not allowed to do what john lauro was doing, talking publicly about the theory of their case, discussing some of the details, the witnesses trying to rip apart the government's position. that is usually frowned upon severely to the point that judges try to step in and stop that. in this case, a protective order seems to make some sense given that donald trump recently said in a very threatening post, you

on georgia, it appears that rudy giuliani and others will ultimately pay the price for this. go down the list. the attorneys appear to be co-conspirators in this latest indictment. you think it's serve as a warning for donald trump's lawyers or potential lawyers. >> look at the politicians you ran, mimicking what donald trump said or saying the kind of things they knew that donald trump wanted them to say about the 2020 election. a whole slew of them in the last cycle didn't get elected, right? if it's not in the courts where there is retribution, then in the public, there is also retribution. one of the safety nets we have is the right to vote people out of office. that happened with secretary of state after secretary of state who donald trump wanted to put in place so he could influence the 2024 election. the voters said, "no, we don't
>> as equals. >> that's so interesting. after a two-year investigation into maurizio gucci's murder, prosecutor nocerino was about to try the case of a lifetime. >> this was the trial of the century in milan. >> nocerino came to court armed with wiretap at recordings and surveillance footage. he also had a slew of star witnesses including almost all of patrizia's alleged accomplices. -- the hotel clerk and the pizzeria owner confessed and agreed to testify for the prosecution. the pizzeria owner turned getaway driver told the jury that patrizia met him to make sure he went through with the murder plot. >> he said i'm worried because what if they catch me? and that's when patrizia said don't worry about that, i will give you enough money for you, your children, your children's children, and if they catch you

the certification of the 2020 election. trump sat in his trademark blue suit and red tie as the magistrate judge announced all four charges against him, including conspiracy to defraud the united states and obstruction of an official proceed ing. the maximum penalty on all charges is decades in prison. just 15 feet from donald trump inside the courtroom, special counsel jack smith, the man who is now charged trump with multiple counts in florida and washington. they staired at each other several times before the arraignment began. the most recent, accusing trump of conspireing to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 election by spreading false claims of election fraud that trump knew were false. >> this is a persecution of a political opponent. >> reporter: trump remained defiant as he travelled in and out of washington after his 30-minute court appearance, flying back to bedminster with a slew of lawyers on board his personal jet.
carol lam and dasha burns, thank you, both. let's bring in msnbc contributor peter baker, who has a new piece out titled "for the court of public opinion, trump relies on a what aboutism defense." peter, let me quote from what you write here. trump now faces 78 felony counts in three different criminal cases. not to mention a slew of civil lawsuits and trials alleging all sorts of wrongdoing. at least in the court of public opinion, though, his defense can be boiled down to three words. what about hunter? tell us more about this strategy. >> yeah. you heard this literally the day his latest indictment came out. you heard it within minutes, before it came out, the whole argument from trump and his defenders is this is only about distracting from hunter biden, his is the real scandal, the biden administration is the real crime family, and donald trump is the innocent victim of
