10:02 pm
appointed in florida rejects his bid on paper. but if she actually handing trump a big win, plus biden gives netanyahu and ultimatum. this is the pant parents of the american citizen killed in the idf strikes beaked outfront why they believe their son was targeted. >> and the >> questions they have tonight, and standing up to 11 musk an arizona election official, taking down a conspiracy theory that musk promoted about election fraud to million people. and he took it down point by these my guests tonight show why? this is wrong. let's go out front >> and good evening. i'm erin burnett outfront tonight. a ruling against trump, the judge and trump's georgia election interference case, rejecting trump's attempt to throw the entire case out. >> there just >> completely dismiss it now, trump had claimed that the case violated his right to free speech. judge scott mcafee having that kind of that writing quote, but defense is not presented nor has the court been able to find any authority. but the speech and conduct alleged is protected political speech so that means trump is on track to go to
quote
10:03 pm
trial in georgia as soon as august, if the district attorney there, fani willis, has her way so that means two trials will be in progress or dawn by election day because of course just 24 hours ago, the judge in the hush money case in new york also rejected trump's latest delay attempt, keeping that trial on track for start next week. but the news tonight out of florida on trump's mar-a-lago documents case is a bit more complicated when you look at the headline, it looks like a defeat for trump because judge aileen cannon also rejected one of trump's request to have that case tossed. but that rejection is just the surface headline. can actually handed trump a victory by allowing him to continue with then argument of defense that is not relevant. it's basically spurious to the case. >> but the >> former trump white house attorney ty cobb says that this ruling by qanon would quote, permit an acquittal where none is warranted. tie will be with me in just a moment. >> this is >> all why can't its ruling though today could have been a very big victory for trump. and once again, he saw it that way. he compliments that her as he unleashed an attack on the
10:04 pm
special counsel, jack smith, trump today writing, quote, that smith should be sanctioned or censured for the way he is attacking a highly respected judge, aileen cannon, who is presiding over his fake documents hopes case in florida. he's a low light, is nasty, rude, and condescending and obviously trying to play the raf. there's a lot to cover tonight. i want to start with paula reid, though it paula's outfront in washington and it appears that trump has two big losses today, but that isn't really the case, is it >> he's losing buddies, winning and speaking with sources close to these cases, aaron untold, they are playing a long game. look, we said it 1 million times. they're number and strategy right now is to delay all of these criminal cases as long as they can. if trump's reelected, you know, the federal cases dismissed the state-level cases stalled, and each motion, each hearing helps to push these cases back. let me tell you, judge cannon down in florida, she's still he has eight motions to dismiss sitting on her desk, in addition to several other issues, including setting a
10:05 pm
trial date in georgia and florida. yeah, they lost your motions to dismiss, but i will remind everyone there's no firm date for either one of those cases on the calendar. fani willis would like to start in august, but after the efforts to disqualify her pushing that case back, that seems really pretty optimistic. and in florida, the judges also allowing trump to possibly use this argument that he had the right to bring classified documents homes. they were personal documents as a defense in trial, something this counsel has strenuously objected to know earn in terms of this long game. i'm told look, even if eventually there our trials, if there are convictions, there also thinking about appeals and the hope is that each one of these motions, each one of these hearings helps them build a record but they could eventually use to appeal and kill any convection sort of in a death by 1,000 cuts >> all right. thank you very much. paula and i'm gonna go now to ryan goodman are legal analysts and alyssa farah griffin, former trump white house communications director, to begin our coverage. so ryan,
10:06 pm
let's just started. there's a lot here. let's start with georgia. that was a loss for trump in terms of what he wanted rejecting the free speech claim that he was making in that particular case. so but you hear what paul is saying that yes. fani willis says, okay, i want want this to start in august, but that that's very optimistic given the broader context here of they tried to get rid of her. now she's gotten kinda get the wheels back on the bus. >> is this case. >> still on trial to start before the election? >> it >> very well might >> start before the election. i don't think they're cases at all going to end before the election. the american public will not have a verdict even according to penny wilson's most optimistic preview of her own schedule. that said i do think the case might actually start in early august, so we aren't that's not dislodged at this point. and there's some inklings from the judge that that might be the case. the fact that he invited a gag order against the prosecutor, usually that's done when you're close to selecting a jury that's one tea leaf. i wouldn't say it's tea leaves.
10:07 pm
and it might indicate that he's on track to approve it at some point, but right now he's remained mm. we don't know where he land. >> well, of course, the closer could see election ironically then if you've publicized televised, you only hear one side it gets complicated illicit, riders brought the gag order issues, so ceremonies reporting, the trump allies are pushing for a gag order against fani willis in the georgia case. now, that's quite choice, right? given the gag order situation out there, he's gotten multiple gag orders that he's been dealing with. any slams them all the time, sort of upping the ante on whole concept of gag order we've just listen to these >> judge put on a gag order. >> i'll be the only politician history that runs with a gag order where i'm not allowed to criticize people. can you imagine that you believe this >> so i guess that they were, they take my right to speak >> a judge gave a gag order today. did you hear that on speech which i believe is totally unconstitutional >> and then he keeps up an ante in terms of the things that he says, i guess the question is,
10:08 pm
is he going to push these orders to the limit, try to force one of these judges to go ahead if you're too scared to put me in jail. >> this is rank hypocrisy on full display. but what donald trump has proved a master of, i'm in these numerous trials is that he is going to use the legal system and take it as far far as he can and he's got the resources to do it. the average citizen wouldn't be able to delay the way that he has, but because he has the resources he can do it. he's pushed the limit on what he's saying and listen, fani willis has hardly covered herself in glory in this, but i would have a hard time arguing that anything she has said is anything near the attacks that she's faced by him and his supporters? >> yeah. i mean, it would important sport and point to make ryan can i ask you about the judge cannon ruling today? we've made the point that the headline seemed seemed that it was a loss for trump. but when you look underneath that, actually there was a pretty significant victory >> it >> you say it's not only a fig leaf of a ruling, it could help him even more than it seems. can you explain? absolutely. >> so his claim is that the classified documents or
10:09 pm
personal he could somehow magically make these most highly classified documents his own it's, it's not what the law says. that's just ludicrous so instead of the judge saying, okay, of course, that's ludicrous. she just said, i'm not deciding that pretrial. i might let that happen during the trial and maybe that's what i'll decide in the midst of the trial. now i'll actually say, oh, those are your personal documents. i issue a judgment for acquittal and that's called rule 29. she could do it in the middle of the trial and then it's too late. that is not appealable so she's actually given him a kind of a loss here. in jack smith can appeal that and have the 11th circuit and they could just make a basically remove her from the case, right. 100%. and i think they might very well want to do that because she's not overseeing the case and the way in which they i think with themselves would want to see a judge do this. so alyssa at trump goes to social media today, defending cannon
10:10 pm
very clear how he saw that ruling today. i mean, there's no question about that. >> he >> called her highly respected. now, i just i just have to contrast that with how he talks it's about judges in his other cases and many other judges. and just so everyone knows highly respected for her. here's everybody else. >> this judge is a lunatic, is a nasty judge. i have a trump-hating judge. her whole life is not liking me that her is not aileen cannon. aileen cannon, again, highly respected. >> what do you >> make of his defense of cannon, alyssa? well, there's two things. he's trying to do here. he's trying to sway the court of public opinion who wants to prejudice the public or his supporters against judges. he doesn't like, and he wants to make them favorable to the ones that he does. but he also it's a nod to the judge. i mean, it's very similar to one of his attorneys referred to brett kavanaugh when who's going to be ruling on immunity saying, you trump appointed him. so we think he'll be with us. this is something that they do and kinda put out there publicly in hopes of swaying the judges in their favor. now of course, judges should be unbiased. that shouldn't affect them, but that's what he's thinking and saying this will there be repercussions for it
10:11 pm
>> not really. i mean, he can get away with >> them and it's very pending because you always accuses others often accuses her. this is what he's doing. he's playing the raf >> yeah. >> i did i already you're playing the rap. i'm glad you brought that up and make sure we could bring that one home. all right. thanks so much to both of you. great to see you. >> and former trump white house lawyer ty cobb joins me now. so tie last night we were on together. you were talking about judge aileen cannon. you had said that, quote, evidence of her bias is pretty palpable. you said she was grossly incompetent. then today you got to read the ruling how do you feel after you saw it >> so i think she had an opportunity today to listen to review the criticism she received yesterday, and i just from me, but from many other commentators and i think it triggered a fight or flight moment for her. and instead of fighting are leave flying she failed. this. >> keep in >> mind that this ruling is on emotion that has probably a cumulative total of 50 plus
10:12 pm
pages of legal briefs, detailed citations to the case law jack smith, making it plain that the presidential records act has nothing to do with the case. and that not only should trump lose the motion to dismiss the presidential records act considerations, should be completely withdrawn from the case instead, she issues instead of citing a single one of those cases, where the authority is very compelling, she she issues a two-and-a-half page ruling that doesn't include a single citation and then she has the hubris to suggest that jack smith demanded these jury instructions. she's the one who demanded the jury instructions. that's what provoked smith's response. he didn't demand anything. he just he asked as he was required to do that, she rule on this issue prior to trial. he's entitled to a ruling on this issue prior to trial. this
10:13 pm
this ruling actually does give him a basis to mandamus or if he so chooses. and i think that on at least on this issue alone, putting aside whether she would be removed from the case. >> but >> on this issue alone, as to whether the presidential records act has any relevance to the trial. yeah. he he would win in the circuit and you know, you had made the point that if her ruling here today stands, it could set the lineup for acquittal as ryan was laying out in the actual trial that's exactly right. >> and that's why he >> has i'm sorry. go ahead. oh, i was saying >> jack smith at that point is ryan was pointing out could do nothing about it. so is there any way for him? the case at this point prior to that >> so he can ask i'm not sure that he will ask on this initial appeal hill, i've multiple opportunities because she will not be able to make it through the sepah process on solid. he'll have multiple opportunities, i believe, but you keep in mind that every
10:14 pm
time you go up there back. it serves trump's interest in terms of delay. she can kick the can down the road with the bessemer if she took two outfits into a changing room at a clothing store, it might be days before you saw >> as analogy that we all can understand no ty, thank you and next, the breaking news continues. israel's initial investigation into the strikes that killed seven workers in aid workers in gaza complete tonight. and the parents of the erica, who was killed in that attack will speak out next why they believe that their son was targeted >> plus the trump >> spin machine kicking into high gear as his truth social stock funds just trump claiming the company has $200 million in cash and zero. is that add up >> and a real life ocean's 11, it is one of the larger just cash heists in la history. $30 gone. >> and police tonight are baffled
10:15 pm
>> hello. >> busters. it's duck. we help people customize and save hundreds on car insurance for liberty mutual >> be the situation >> sure. i can in. response to. the trade rumors, we keep her in about, uh, what we talk about a little bit. not that's >> right. now. it's right. we talked about moving. no. thank you. you could use open-door sell your house directly to them. it's easy >> i guess we're moving >> guess it's time to paint >> hi. >> whether you're doing it yourself for hiring a pro today, let's pack >> maybe

10:19 pm
far, i'm not saying anything about it publicly. this is president biden issues is harshest message yet to netanyahu an ultimatum of sorts, protect innocent civilians or us aid is at risk as first time it's been said that directly, it all comes as questions grow over the idf's use of artificial intelligence to pick targets and the fatal consequences of this fred pleitgen is out front >> you ever after israel's attack on a world central kitchen aid convoy in gaza questions about the idf's targeting process are front and center. >> these was not use matlab see duration where, oops, we dropped the bomb in the braam place or or not, this was over 1.51, 0.8 kilometers with a very defined humanitarian convoy that had signs in the top in the roof israel calls the targeted strike quote a tragic mistake. but there are general questions about how the
10:20 pm
idf decides who to target after israeli magazine plus 972 published an article claiming israel's military widely uses artificial intelligence when going after alleged militants sometimes with very little human oversight, says investigative reporter, you wael abraham, after speaking to six israeli intelligence officers. >> so one source told me that he would spend roughly 20 seconds before authorizing each target. and the only supervision they need to do is to check if the targets that unmarked was a male or female >> according to the reporting, the ai program called lavender identifies and marks alleged militants in gaza from low-level ones to senior commanders. one source told me it's 90% of the beatles, hundreds of thousands of people. and it gives, gives each one and rating based on this long list of features. and the rating shows how probable the machine thinks that a
10:21 pm
particular individual is that belongs to to the hamas or islamic jihad military wings. >> but abraham says, he sources told them be i program also makes mistakes with lethal consequences it says for civilians in gaza, it would mark people who have a loose connection to hamas or no connection at all to hamas as potential targets. and they knew that this provision mechanism in place would not be able to find all of these mistakes >> the israel defense forces have not denied the use of ai on the battlefield in gaza, but in a state let's say, quote, contrary to claims, the idf does not use an artificial intelligence system that identifies terrorist operatives or tries to predict whether a person he is a terrorist information systems. are merely tools for analysts in the target identification process. well, israel says it has concluded the initial investment to get into the bombing of the aid convoy, the former top us general in europe told out front, he's troubled
10:22 pm
by some of what he sees from israel's military because i think that the idf has become i don't want to say callous towards civilian casualties, but their tolerance for collateral damage is much higher what for us. it's zero >> the idf says, it takes care to prevent civilian casualties, but the us has warned more needs to be done to protect the death toll among non combatant gazans have increasing even further an aaron, as far as the use of ai and the targeting process is concerned, the idf says that even if ai is used, that their analysts need he'd to conduct independent investigations to verify that targets meet certain criteria under international law, but also according to the idf's own restrictions, aaron all right. fred, thank you >> out front now, john flickinger and sylvia la brack, their son, jacob, an american and canadian citizen, was killed in the attack and gaza,
10:23 pm
he was delivering food on behalf of world central kitchen he was 33 years old and an 18 month so baby and appears to be the first american killed by the idf since the october 7 attacks. john and sylvia >> no one >> watching can imagine your pain right now? could you first just tell us a bit about your son, your child, jacob >> well, chica for sure was great human being he was a wonderful child and i mean, he was very athletic, very dynamic he loved nature, he loves playing outside and later on, he enjoyed doing what he was doing as a military guy. he did that for 11 years and even when he left the army, i always told them that he was a deep down inside. he was kind of a warrior and i think that this
10:24 pm
is what we've been seeing through this past few days. jacob was a very special human being very loyal real good heart he was someone to remember. i think he was kind of like bigger than life. and that's what we've we're seeing right now with all the help and the support was receiving a hoping that wherever he is up in the above i hope that he can feel all that support and that love that. >> we're >> trying to express and show it to him jacob was loving son a loving father, and partner with his life >> partner, a sandi, the clerk they recently joined, and had a
10:25 pm
18 month old son they were just starting their life together and he was very, very happy he's also dedicated his life to service. first thing to military in canada. serwer in afghanistan for a year and served with the world central kitchen starting this past fall and he loved the work with wck and was eager to continue with them. >> and then you mentioned he was in a deconflicted zone, the convoy was coordinated with the idf. we know these these realities i'm jose andres has been very vocal. i know you both have heard what he said. he said that this attack was targeted. it was not an accident i just wanted to play part of what he said again, so that all of our viewers can hear it as well. but i
10:26 pm
>> know is that we were targeted deliberately, non-stop until everybody was dead in these convoy but that that cannot be that cannot be the role of an army >> do you believe your son was targeted? >> absolutely. there's no doubt about it and i think that the most important thing is to speak out, to express it the way we're doing it, the way the menn did i think it's important and that way we're hoping that it may change certain things, you >> so yes. by all appearances, the facts as they've been as they become known as presented. so far, seem to indicate that it was a deliberate targeting of a food aid convoy we would
10:27 pm
like an independent investigation. we asked everyone that we've talked to from canadian government, from the us government that too persist and demanding for an independent investigation so that all the facts can be known. but from what we know now your viewers can make their own judgment. >> but >> all the facts point to that. attempt to the target zaid or hur's. >> how do you i guess it's just too soon even asked such a question. but how do you even process that? >> do you feel to feel a rage about it or you know there were worse crushed >> now, sad i don't feel any anger might feel some anger,
10:28 pm
but the overwhelming feeling is just sadness for our son and for his partner and his young son, and for the other aid workers who were killed and for the over 200 aid workers who've been killed since the beginning of this conflict they haven't gotten the same attention that our son, jacob has but their lives were of no less value and our hearts go out to the families of the world central kitchen staff who were killed. the families of the palestinian aid workers who have been killed trying to serve as starving population and to everyone both sides of the conflict who are suffering through this. >> i >> know the citizens of israel want peace. i know the people of palestine. and gaza want
10:29 pm
peace so if we can move the needle toward that end a small fraction of an inch then jacob's life and the other words, life's won't be in vain. >> yeah >> president biden, we understand at least the word that was shared with us by those around him was shaken we're they use a shaken when he heard about the strike in which jacob died. and today, he spoke to the israeli prime minister netanyahu and we understand that president biden told him more needs to be done to protect civilians. or there will be consequences that that was the message do you feel that that's what it should be? is that strong enough given what has happened >> well, he's been saying that i support him in repeating to israel and not yahoo that things need to change. but
10:30 pm
actions speak louder than words the united states and used these to use its leverage two force a change. >> we need to >> suspend a israel until they make some changes with the way they are deducting operation at the same time, the hostages need to be released and the corridors need to be opened up the idf needs to stop targeting civilians and aid workers. so, yeah, there's a lot that needs to happen and words are great, but actions speak louder than words. >> yeah >> have you heard from president biden >> we haven't heard we've heard from the embassy in jerusalem. the united states embassy in jerusalem, but otherwise we have not heard from anyone in the government
10:31 pm
we just got off, the phone with the canadian prime minister pierre trudeau. yeah. >> we spoke also today with the canadian foreign minister who is in europe, who called us to offer her consult condolences and help canada. it was organizing some support where they can for jacob's family we'd like to see someone from our government. my government, does. i'm a us citizen and jacob was a us citizen someone reach out to us to offer more than condolences >> can only hope that they will and i'd like to say that this story is so much bigger than what happened to our son it happened to so many people. there's already been thousands of people that died it's about humanity. and right now, we're
10:32 pm
living in a very messy world there's gotta be some kind of clean up that is done somewhere on the road. and just like john was saying, even if it's just a tiny inch, but change that will protect some children's, some mothers, some human beings i would be so proud and jacob would be so proud of it. so we're just hoping that his light is signing all around the world the way that there's a massive change somewhere somehow >> i'm so sorry for both of you. thank you so very much for being able to speak with us. >> you're very welcome and thanks for thinking of us the family has set up a gofundme to help a jacobs young family as partners. they mentioned sandi and their 18 month old son. people can donate and both the us and canada well, next, trump is claiming is truth, social

significant amounts of expenses and legal expenses to try to take this deal public secondly, trump's company was also taking on major debt because it wasn't making any money. but the way that he was taking on debt was who is taking notes that would convert to equity at huge discounts. >> so >> ultimately what you're looking at for the retail shareholder is that you have less cash than you would have expected and you have more shareholders diluting everybody else except for the insiders you've got an early forgotten who got an early and of course, when you say spac, special purpose acquisition corp. basically constructed just to go out and buy something in this case, it was true social. so trump's also trying to push are popular it is. you have to type it up. danny saying he's got 7 million followers and it's good for a startup, very good for a startup and growing fast okay, you look at the comps, you look at this. is that true? >> 7 million is nothing on twitter. he had over 80 million followers and that was just him. the overall company had hundreds of millions of active users. this is a tiny, tiny
10:40 pm
minnow in an ocean of a social media company what's especially troubling for investors is if you look at the growth trajectory of it it's not adding many users and so normally if you had a company that was generating very few revenues and losing money, you'd at least expect to see huge growth. and here you're not even seeing that there's really from a business fundamentals perspective, little reason i help here. >> i mean, it's pretty shocking. i mean, it past few days you've got to investors and it pleading guilty to insider trading scheme linked to a deal in this whole process of bringing it public as you were explaining that the company itself as sued two of its co-founders who are former apprentice contestants, boston globe, brandon op-ed were investment experts compared this ipo to a ponzi his game storied investor in so many successful things, including expedia, barry diller said this so scam just like everything he's ever been involved in, is some sort of calm
10:41 pm
>> i mean that's that's something to go out and say that doesn't go. i just say that for nothing >> what is >> all this mean for donald >> no. >> well, the question is, how long it takes for retail investors to catch on to the fact that there's nothing there. this is a business that's generating about 700 per quarter. it's losing about $5.3 million a year on an operating basis, far more on a net basis doesn't have major growth. so trump, whose shares are locked up, meaning he can't sell them for about six months, is really just hoping to hang on and hope that this all this mess, all this in fighting the lawsuits, all the controversy, just doesn't scare people off in the next 5.5 or six months. and at that point, but he can send a tap into a shares either by leveraging them or selling them and get the money. all right. dan alexander. thank you so much for explaining and always good to see you yeah likewise and
10:42 pm
also saw this tweet and it really stood out to me. so here it is. it comes down to elon musk. musk went out and retweeted something, amplifying a post. this post suggests that more than 220,000 undocumented migrants could have registered to vote in the state of arizona without a photo id this year alone. this year alone. so it's what april 3rd, 4th, whatever it is today, let me check. april 4. okay. 63 million people >> viewed this repost by musk and musk's addition to the 220,000 claim was quote, extremely concerning well, the most concerning thing about this whole thing is that 63 million people saw it and it is not true this is according to the top republican official and arizona's largest county, who pushed back in a lengthy rebuttal point-by-point of, course, on x the platform where musk posted this to begin with maricopa county recorder, stephen richer is out front and steven, i'm glad to talk to you, so it was your post that i saw going through at point-by-point because of course, i saw elon 220,000
10:43 pm
illegal migrants voting registering to vote in arizona in the past three months in anybody's job will go to the floor so let's go through it 220,000 is nearly four times the number, total number of voters who registered and all of arizona this year four times >> so that number totally off. can you explain? >> yeah. so this isn't as complicated as the previous segment. there's no complex investment schemes here. there's just an allegation of 220,000 illegal immigrants registering to vote in the past three months, we only have 4 million registered voters fears in arizona total. and for all of 2024, we've only had 60,000 new registrants, and so we keep track of all of these things. and this is just one of those instances in which i would ask people's spidey sentences to be a little more alert and say, is that just pulling out my emotions, saying 220,000 illegal immigrants? registered to vote in the last three
10:44 pm
months. is that realistic? >> because i mean, look, it was shocking and i think what's most shocking is of those 63 million people, a lot of people are going to take away at the very least. hey, mass numbers of illegal migrants are voting, registering to vote in arizona >> but i do want to >> point out one thing. and you noted this, right? so obviously the musk repost did not get to this level of nuance, but you did you in your rebuttal, you said there are about 30,000 registered voters in arizona, total, right? not registered this year, but total >> who wants something >> called a federal only list, which means that they have come to you and said they're us citizens, but have not provided documents two prove it. okay. so at first when you see that you say, wow, that's 30,000 too many. >> but can you tell us >> a little bit more about who those people are and why that is also prone to conspiracy theory. >> that's right. so arizona is actually comparatively quite vigilant in checking citizenship. so if you register through the arizona motor vehicle division as the vast
10:45 pm
majority of our voters do, or if you registered at all since 1996? then we're going to ask for documented proof of citizenship. now, if you don't provide that and that's typically a birth certificate, you don't provide that, but you still say i attest under penalty of law that i me states citizen, but i have not for whatever reason provided this documentation then federal law holds requires that we still allow that person to vote a federal only ballot >> but we keep >> close numbers on those. so we keep close tabs and we have about 30,000 in the entire state of arizona. and from the studies that i've seen in the studies that we've run, these are disproportionately centered around you university areas. and if you think about it, that probably makes sense. people might be going to university and just have, don't have access to their parents home or maybe their birth certificate is kept. and so really we have no reason to believe that those people aren't citizens. it's
10:46 pm
just that they haven't proven it to the documentation level required by the state of arizona for all other voters. >> all right. well, all of this crucial context to eight to a retweet of something that was false, that was seen 63 million times. steven, thanks so much. always want to see you did you see my posts first or his post first? >> you know what i saw yours >> excellent >> then i said, what is it that elon hosting and i went up and i thought yeah, i read the debunking read the original lesson is people need to follow me rather than elon musk >> all right, thank you, stephen >> and next it's being called a real life oceans 11, million in cash stolen without a trace. its left investigators in los angeles totally stumped >> and we're going to >> tell you what all these little dots on the map have to do with the upcoming solar eclipse zyrtec allergy relief
