Ana Cabrera Reports

response against iran or its people would result in a harsh and decisive response. what's your reaction to what we just witnessed, what we're learning? did this just escalate things? >> no, i don't think so. i don't think iran wants a war with israel, and i don't think israel wants a war with iran. if you notice, this attack it was measured and calibrated, and i think what israel intended to do here is send a message to iran that we can strike deep inside your country and, oh, by the way, we also know where your nuclear capability. there's a nuclear power plant there in isibhan where it is believed that iran is enriching uranium for nuclear weapons purposes, and so that's the message that we can attack deep

purposes of the judge. and so that'll be taking consideration with the judge certainly has its disposal, the ability to to do so. there was a moment as well, by the way, today, during the hearing where defense council, again repeated their requests, frankly, their insistence to get the witness information for those who'd be testifying. you can recall oh, wool that the prosecution did not want to hand it over because they were concerned about not only violation of the gag order, but about what this could mean for the jury. witnesses who might be testifying while the defense council offered well, could you if you ordered us not to tell our client knowing that they would essentially be admitting that they may not have the same trust relationships even prevent that person from speaking was a really notable moment here. and so they have a lot of things at their disposal come tuesday and we'll find out what the judge will exercise in the end. >> jim, if the gag order is really so important, why is the hearing to determine if trump violated it? why is it not being held until tuesday?

The Beat With Ari Melber

can have multiple purposes. it could be for a married man who just doesn't want his wife to know. and so that is something that has been tried and failed before by prosecutors. and when you then abandon the election piece and you instead go for the tax piece, then you have to kind of really put in the what is the bright line between donald trump and his accountant. how many of these things were annotated by the accountant and how many of them did donald trump even know about that. he's running a major corporation. he's not personally keeping the books on every line item. >> yeah. tim, this is been reallying, especially given that you represented donald trump in those jack smith cases. we want to come to all of the sources that we can as we go over the next few weeks of the trial so i hope you'll come back, sir. >> sure. >> appreciate it. that is tim parlatory. andrew weissmann is on deck for the rebuttal.

The Beat With Ari Melber

purposes of his cooperation with the government and i think most lawyers would say going out and talking about a former client and describing his mental anguish or potential alleged suicidal ideation is beyond the pail. and then two, it is a complex set of reasons why the sdny didn't go forward with the wider case. that is the simplest way i could put it. i want to put that nt owe the record. but i want to double back to what we said earlier because you raised something that we showed viewers, which is this theory of misdemeanor turns into felony based on some second crime and they gave several options on the menu. could be attacked. how would they attack that at trial on the defense side? >> well a lot of it depends on which theory alvin bragg is going to put in front of the jury. when it comes to whether this is election law, you could turn to the case of john edwards. this is been something that has been tried before. where hush money paid to keep an affair silent is something that

which means it's going to attract whoever wants to use that media for whatever purposes they have. including tragic ones. >> exactly, joy. first, let me say what great reporting here. you're at the spot of a big event, a trial of a former president, and you witness, you know, a horrible suicide, a violent death. that's what this is. that's what yasmin witnessed and described for us. this is why we have a free press. i think michael can elaborate on that for us deeply, but this is why we have a free society, because we can have correspondents that can report what's actually going on because we can't all be there. look, this person traveled from florida. and i have worked these cases where people strap bombs on themselves, they blow themselves up, they kill themselves. fire, explosives, firearms. we were also involved in that with atf, and i think you saw atf agents on the scene because they're the government's bomb

The Ingraham Angle

is legally absurd. and it's being brought for political purposes and the timing by in my view the district attorneys' office. there can be in regard to michael cohen. this is also another you have a witness who is essentially campaigning against trump not just talking about this case but going on the air and campaigning against him as president. calling for people to vote against. and you are telling a candidate that he cannot respond. in the very least the judge could make exceptions with regard to witnesses who are now actively campaigning against a candidate for the presidency. you think so nothing ordinary about this. the judge also decided that alvin bragg's team doesn't have to give advanced notice of the

pioneering the boundaries of human consciousness. >> you can say that the cia played a major role in bringing lsd to america. when we think of the counterculture in the sixties we can think a lot of the cia. the cia brought lsd into the country and created a research industry. >> jesse: but lsd became so widespread and abused for hedonistic purposes that it discredited the peace movement which was kind of what the cia intended. although lsd was proving to provide some -- substantial clinical benefits for alcoholics or depressed people, people with ptsd, the drug was never allowed to be brought to market by pharmaceutical companies because the american government's war on drugs and cold war agenda, more important. but after decades of criminalization, lsd is seeing a resurgence therapeutically. but is still struggling to escape it's cultural taboo. author of tripped, nazi germany, the cia and the dawn of the

The Last Word With Lawrence ODonnell

whatever political purposes he may be doing that, he's clearly asking for it and i think that it's incumbent on the judge to treat him like any other party. as i've said repeatedly, it's the road to hell to not treat him like everyone else and it's hard to see the defense that will be made. i will not be surprised at all if the district attorney revises their pending motion to encompass this. and i think the judge will certainly want to give an opportunity for the defense to be heard, that it's required by due process. but it's very hard to see why they will not be sanctioned for this conduct. >> the judge already has a motion pending from the district attorney about comments that donald trump made about witnesses, michael cohen, witnesses who have been talked about publicly a lot by a lot of people. the judge didn't exactly race
