right. billions and tens of billions baloney to that. danny, a guy who acts as a defense attorney, does all this stuff possibly lend itself to a defense saying this guy is crazy? it is possible. here s the thing. insanity defenses are often talked about in movies and casually. in practice, they re rare, very, very difficult. factors like the attempt to avoid detection or to run away, those are factors that show that somebody was aware of what they were doing and knew that it was wrong. so generally speaking, if you try to avoid capture, you re going to make it difficult for the defense attorney to make first amendment is taken seriously, talk to me about that van. so, the fbi will be the first to tell you that even hoaxes, threats are illegal. it is a crime to threaten someone online. but when you look at things like the van, the stickers, all of the targets over hillary clinton s face or van jones, that s okay? social media.
protected speech. it sounds like a threat. and even if it didn t directed to a particular person, it certainly skirts the line. even if it is not a criminal threat. expect it to come in when prosecutors introduce not only the stickers, seek to introduce did tweets that can be attributed to this particular defendant. all right. tom winter, we are also looking at legally what happens now. as danny was saying, he gets transferred from florida to new york. how s it determined that the sown district of knock is in charge of this? i m not sure on this particular one just because the southern district of new york is so busy right now so i ve been hounding them to get us the copy of the criminal complaint but they re in the process of putting it together. the determination had been made earlier this week. knew that new york would take the case several days ago. i think the idea behind it is first off a number of the devices were sent to within the southern district of new york s
73, we did put the acid on there. we ll have to tell them to train their people to say, use your eyes, they re beautiful. instead of, you re too old. they don t have it at every airport. but when they do, it s beautiful. also, day two of the trial for paul manafort. we ll tell you where the defense is laying the blame. and law professor jonathan turlly will tell us why he s gambling against all odds. plus can we go back to the picture? doesn t that remind you of somebody? i don t know who it could be. it s nick after a long time. have you seen them in the same place at the same time? coming up, danny cevalos with the three ways rudy giuliani s strategy could hurt trump. only three? really?
that creates a great unpredictability for the trump team. as to how he might respond. he could very well respond as a parent instead of a president. he could issue a bunch of firings and pardons. this thing could change and turn on a dime. i think everyone is watching that closely. i think that where i would be looking as a criminal defense attorney is on the edges. wow. jonathan turley, thank you so much. danny cevallos, thank you. even in florida i have had a great career. i have had a lot of fun. i ve done great. i ve done really well. beyond anything i could have ever expected. and then i ran for president with no experience and i won, isn t that interesting? more ahead from president trump s rally in florida. we ll be right back. the fact is, there are over ninety-six
discover if he s one of those blinking todays. rather than take a plea, pan fort has taken the gamble of a trial. he is in the worst possible legal position of having to run the tabls by not only beating 18 counts in virginia but then beating 7 counts in a separate trial this washington. while he needs to beat all the charges, special counsel robert mueller needs only one conviction on one count to put manafort away for as much as a decade. that is what it means to play the house. the house usually wins. right now, las vegas would give m manafort about the same odds of acquittal at it would give the baltimore orioles to win the world series. so why hasn t manafort sought a deal with mueller. why? danny? good question. he s been holding out for the possibility that he might get a pardon. but also, sometimes you get defendants and clients who just don t see the case the way the
