from two custom makers, one in beverly hills.was testimony that he bought a house for his daughter for $2 million. $3 million in improvements on his hampton properties for a home improvement contractor. all of this was paid for by wire transfers from an account in cyprus that prosecutors are going to allege later was parked there to avoid u.s. taxes. >> let me stop you right there. that is the important fact here. it's how he paid for all of this. it's not that he bought all of this, it's how he paid for it. >> that's right. >> the transaction he used, a wire transfer. anyway, go ahead, ken. >> absolutely. because, look, in theory he should have been able to afford all of this stuff anyway. he was paid $60 million, or his firm was, for his work for this ukrainian politician. what prosecutors are saying is he was so greedy, he still had to avoid american taxes on this. here's another important thing that we learned from today, chuck. all of these witnesses were asked by the prosecutors, do you know who rick gates is? and they all

the street runs for about four drive with all the fancy 10eo shopping in beverly hills. mr.lly on rodeo road in 2007, it's part of president's row, a series of streets named after presidents such as washington, adams and jefferson. >> we're watching this closely here in the bay area. but scientists in southern california say a prototype earthquake early warning system did its job last night. the system gave them a 30-second heads up before the magnitude 4.4 quake centered in la verne 30 miles east of los angeles hit. no damage or injuries were reported. the goal of the early warning system is to push those alerts to your phone so you have a little time to prepare. >> well, there are severe weather conditions across many parts of the country right now, flooding, tornadoes and oppressive heat as well. abc news reporter zachary kiesch has more. >> reporter: they call them the doys of suer. where there isn't sun, there are storms. the temperatures are responsible for wild weather near the great lakes. and at one point, more than 100,000 left without power in western michigan. an

spenzing on things like moment renovations and clothes at stores in new york and beverly hills where he spent nearly $1.5 million. including a $21,000 watch, and a $15,000 custom-made ostrich jacket. >> i didn't know that was a thing. >> that was on -- >> that's how out of step i am. i didn't know that was -- >> i didn't which part of it was a thing. >> if swu-- the $15 -- i would guess that's -- >> that's when you got too much. >> it's leather like. joining us now former assistant u.s. attorney for the southern district of new york. all right, walk us through. >> it's the skin of the ostrich, not feathers. >> correct. something i learned in the last 24 hours. walk us through how important a case is for mueller and the investigation. like it or not, the president and rudy giuliani ha have been successful in a court of public opinion creating extraordinary mueller fatigue. how important is it to get a big win? >> i think it's important on a couple levels. we have a federal criminal trial of the president of the united states' former campaign manager on tens of millions of dollars of f

you see behind me all the expensive jackets and the like that paul manafort picked up in beverly hills and new york is it i. honing in on what eric was saying there, there is a distinction the prosecution having to make between living lavishly and showcasing income. how do you see that playing out? >> all the prosecution is trying to do is to prove that manafort was rich. that is all -- like these jac t jackets are not here just to embarrass him. if they want to do that, they would talk about his hair, right? these jackets are here to prove the point that paul manafort was rich and then next week they will prove the point that paul manafort paid no taxes. and once they do that, game, set, match. that is the case. manafort's defense isn't even -- his defense has mainly been the government doesn't have the right to ross cute me, they are only doing this to try to get at donald trump. and if i did commit a crime, i mean like who doesn't launder money for russian oligarchs, come on, man. like that is his actual defense right now. so all the prosecution has to do is stick to the facts, stic

there was an advertisement on the radio for beverly hills -- and like any pyramid scheme, every kid getsut let's say they asked for $400. my parents at that time maybe had $600 in the bank account. and my mom, she has no explanation for why she did what he did. my mom decided to write a check. when you talk to her, she says i just had a gut feeling. >> as usual, a mother's intuition is right. at 34, kunis is one of the most successful and highest-paid actresses in hollywood. and with husband ashton kutcher forms a power cup 'em that is a magnet for the tabloids. her latest movie is the action comedy "the spy who dumped me." >> we just want to talk about your boyfriend. >> he dumped me. >> some bad people are after me and now they're after you. >> but it almost didn't happen for her. >> i initially passed. my husband and i made an agreement a long time ago that we would never separate the family. i said no and it was my husband who said i think you should do it. >> do you want to die never having been to europe or do you want to go to europe and die having been to europe. >> why are those

. >> beverly hills. >> only client that paid news international wire transfers. never to build global endeavor never had a client named global endeavor. he was trying to hide some things. >> look, the essence of the government's case against him is he received funds for behavior that he engaged in in the ukraine, which as an american, he had to report to the u.s. so the work was unlawful because he didn't report it. he took the money and he laundered it through a variety of shell companies and one way that he got -- was able to hide the money was to have the shell company directly buy things for him. this max a mil million fellow extremely high end clothing stores. this shows in the prosecutor's mind and auger to the jury, this shows a pattern of deception on his part. dana, this is the tip of the iceberg. the judge sin parent nkt haven't even gotten to the principle conspiracies yet. starting with the least of his ills which is clothing. when they get to bank accounts and real estate, then you will start to see money really pile up. >> dana: i have another quest

used ill gotten gains to purchase really expensive men's suits from the house of bijon, an elite beverly hills suit maker, where you can spend $25,000 on a custom suit. an fbi agent testified that his closet was full of these suits. the prosecution tried to introduce a photo. the judge has been skeptical, is sort of warning the prosecution that manafort is not on trial for being rich and spending lavishly. but the prosecution is painting a picture of a man who is so greedy that he needed -- even though he was being paid $60 million by this ukrainian politician, he needed to evade taxes to fund his lavish li lifestyle. they say they moved the money through offshore counts, he committed bank fraud and tax fraud. this afternoon we have more witnesses actually associated with one of his tailors and a mercedes-benz dealer. they are trying to paint a picture for the jury of a man living lavishing on ill gotten gains. >> rick gates always presumed to be the star witness in this trial, he was another person indicted but he turned. he pleaded guilty in exchange for cooperation with robert mueller. word

ronald wall, a financial executive at the beverly hills luxury fashion store house of bijan also testifiedt manafort used wire transfers to pay for merchandise. >> az stated, he was a very good customer. >> reporter: with the flurry of witnesses today the jury also heard from mercedes-benz, a real estate agent as well as a contractor. all of them talked about manafort's penchant for luxury items. they also talked about the fact that manafort often used wire transfers from those offshore accounts to pay for things and really this case has been moving at a breakneck pace. prosecutors told the judge today they expect to wrap p their case next week. wolf? >> moving very, very quickly. all right, jessica, thank you. jessica schneider in alexandria for us. just ahead, more on the legal implications of the president's tweet and whether he was attempting to obstruct the russia probe. could it all hinge on the definition of should? and we'll break down rudy giuliani's defense of the president, whether it could -- it would hold up in court. >> this whole obstruction of justice thing is nonsense. if
