>> let me ask you about the venue question. the first time of manafort and gates was from a grand jury in d.c. these new charges were from a grand jury in virginia, in the eastern district of virginia where you served as u.s. attorney. is there a reason for this change of venue? it seems unusual just as a lay observer? >> it's unusual but not unheard of. if you want to charge manafort and gates, rachel, with everything they did, you have to bring it in this case in two different places. it seems to me they don't have venue for the tax fraud charges in the district of columbia. they probably don't have venue in the eastern district of virginia for the failure to register as foreign agents so if you want to charge them with everything, if you want to run the table you have to do it in two different places. >> does this mean these guys could end up facing two different consecutive trials in these two different jurisdictions? >> yes, if they don't plead guilty they're going to be tried in one place first and the other place second. i don't know who goes first, the judges will set date and the lawyers will argue about it,
