this is -- if this is the post office that's on 52nd street between 8th and 9th avenues in new york, it is both a working post office and a sorting facility. the other thing that's different about it is there's actually a residential condo development that was built on top of this. so people actually live directly above where this is. there is a series of condominiums there and they are residences on one side of it to the east side of it, residences across the street. so this is also a heavily residential area. it's not something that's separate from here. and it's a very busy post office. in fact, i walk this neighborhood all the time. you can see usually, certainly in the morning and then in the afternoon lots of mail trucks lined up there because it is a sorting facility. the stuff gets sorted, loaded into the trucks. i think you can see from the picture on the air right now what you're looking a in ing at residential building. >> that package, number 12, was intended for james clapper. the one we're also speaking about this morning that was discovered in florida intended for cory

new york because a state's attorney from new york is somehow involved. and he calls him a scoundrel, and frank is so mad, he literally waits in the lobby of the big post office building in manhattan for the guy to come out from lunch and just decks him. and they are rolling around on the marble and a witness describes in the new york times, it is hysterical. what does it say? they are rolling around in angry embrace? william: the ensuing row, yes. victoria: another one where he hit a guy in the face. seriously, he had a temper. scott: but he was 145 pounds, right? william: maybe. victoria: soaking wet. william: i think he is smaller than i was actually. scott: talk about his postal inspector career. because it did not get off to a rousing start. william: remember what i said before -- there were some ethics codes you were supposed to follow. one of those was you had to give up whatever political campaigns you were involved in because it would be considered a bit biased in some way. he goes off and gets his first appointment, which is down in tennessee -- typical work, doing a great job. but his brother, back in ellicott city, was involved in the howard count

was embraced by the new york cultural elite, embraced by the new york press, he's same person that was in page six and the new york post on a daily basis. and when he got to the officethe presidency, he didn't change one bit. people said, okay, start acting presidential. what his supporters like about him is that he is authentic, he is brutally candid. you may agree or disagree with the way he articulates things or goes after people, but he hasn't changed who he is. and the fact that he's not a phony, that he's not poll-tested is why his supporters like him and why his numbers stay where they are. so when people call him hitler or unfit, guess what? when you hit the quota of saying that for the one millionth time since he's been in office, it's just not going to land the punch. trish: i get it. hey, joe, thank you for being here tonight. >>> next, everyone, a bad week turning worse for fame-loving attorney michael avenatti. chuck grassley asking the justice department to look into allegations of avenatti and his client, julie swetnick, conspired to provide false statements to congress. that's ahead. ♪ ♪ i can't believe it. that everything sticks to stefon diggs's ha

there are then some caveats to that, if it's a post office, that's not in new york, how did -- how were there quote/unquote car years in new york? they're not necessarily consistent. they're not obviously consistent either. so that is proceeding. the sophistication of the bomb i think is the issue that people are talking about. but each with that, let's remember, you can now download from the internet information on how to build a bomb and you don't -- they don't have to be that sophisticated and work. we've seen that in new york, where terrorist attacks. where we've had lone wolf terrorists download information andic night bombs. some have been successful. some have not been successful. so i think that's a question that they're debating is the sophistication of the bomb and then you have a question of the purpose, was the individual purposely not sophisticated in the construction because they wanted to intimidate or was this the best job they could do? >> have you learned anything, governor, as far as you know about the courier who delivered that bomb to the time warner center columbus

not only videos of florida and the post office there and videos in new york and california and delaware. they're trying to determine the packaging where did these stamps come from. they're looking also at this various powder, the envelope. the envelope may not have contained biological substances, but there's a lot of information like dna. if you lick that envelope, there your dna would be. those are the things they're looking at right now. >> charles: ten parcels throughout the country, ted. a lot of -- an abundance of clues, ways of tracing this whack. the psychology of the person that did this. i'm looking at it from the outside looking in, this is probably somebody that wants to get caught. >> i don't know i'd go as far as saying they want to get caught but they're probably stepping back and looking at the havoc that they're causing throughout the nation in these investigations. i can tell you, as they said ear earlyer, they will catch this person. but they're taking everything in the sense of a puzzle. there's fbi agents, postal workers investigators and atf investigators. all of t
