4:00 pm
an emotionally charged news conference in charlottesville, virginia wrapped up not too long ago. the police chief there publicly naming for the first time their person of interest in the disappearance of a university virginia student. i'm harris faulkner, this is the fox report. there has been a ripple of fear across a quiet college town where 18-year-old hanna graham vanished. students sticking together walking in pairs at night and so on. you may not know this, but at least three other young women have vanished in that same area in the past five years, although police say they do not think hanna graham's case is linked to any of those. more than 1,000 volunteers have gone out this weekend looking
4:01 pm
for hanna graham and now police have issued an arrest warrant for jesse matthews. matthew was actually at the police station at one point in charlottesville but left after asking for an attorney. >> i have made no mistake about it, we want to talk to jesse matthew. we want to talk to him. we want to talk about his interactions with this sweet young girl that we can't find. >> so he left that police station driving erratically, that charge is out on him. leland vitter is out in charlottesville tonight, and lee land, this is pretty bizarre, take us through it. >> reporter: obviously a lot of us haven't heard about a case like this, matthew shows up, he knows he's been under suspicion for the past 48 hours and all of a sudden sped off. we also learned about that interaction with police where he
4:02 pm
asked for a lawyer, there were federal and state investigators who had him under surveillance. he was driving so fast, according to police they had to give up the trail because they were worried about other people on the road. the past 48 hours, we have also learned a lot more about matthew, including what kind of car he had, and this is pictures of the car the police seized, they say they have searched it for evidence, that evidence is at the crime lab right now and they have released pictures to the public saying they want to talk to anyone who saw that car over the past week in the area of charlottesville to figure out what matthew may have been doing in that car. remember, police have also searched matthew's house and despite taking a lot of evidence out of there, say they still don't have enough evidence to charge him with a crime in connection with hanna's disappearance. >> i believe that jesse matthew was the last person she was seen with before she vanished off the fates of the earth. let me say that again. i believe jesse matthew was the
4:03 pm
last person she was seen with before she vanished off the face of the earth. >> and this is the surveillance video of jesse matthew, a big guy, 270 pounds, with dreadlocks, he walked up to hanna, about where i am standing right now, put his arm around her, walked her a block and a half to a local winery got 1:30 saturday morning and had a drink with her and at that point, they say, the trail goes cold. >> outside of that police chief who obviously was very emotional during that news conference. her parents showed up, leland? >> reporter: they sounded desperate as anyone would be to try and find their little girl. they talked about 18-year-old hanna graham, sophomore at the university of virginia, a nursing student they say gave up her summer break to go and help rebuild houses and they say it's more than just her angelic smile
4:04 pm
that's leading so many to be concerned about where she is. >> it's every parent's worst nightmare. i'm certain that everybody in this room and those watching knows that what happened to hanna could happen to their child. >> and a little bit over 1,000 people spent their weekend searching for hanna all over, we saw them walking down railroad tracks, ravines, into ditches, all over the place trying to find her. and a lot of girls here on campus said, look, i walk home at night, this could have very easily have been me and you really get a sense here on the streets of charlottesville, a charming innocent college town that things have changed here and there is a loss of that college innocence that so many feel across the country. >> and a lot of those women are reminded they have gone through this at that campus before, in
4:05 pm
separate cases. leland vitter, thank you very much. the search leading crews through wooded areas in the pocono mountains. police have recovered from items they believe were abandoned or possibly this man tried to hide, including ammunition and a rifle. verlts say eric freen -- they say he shot and killed one trooper, wounded another. >> reporter: the pennsylvania state police say they believe that 31-year-old eric free is 450id hiding out in this area, very close to where he lived with his parents, but they say the survivalist is very close to being caught. >> we believe we are closing in on him. up until now his advantage has been that he knows his backyard.
4:06 pm
the area he once felt safe in. we are pushing him hard, he is no longer safe and i am confident that he will be apprehended. >> the search area is now about 200 to 250 square miles, it's concentrated on the borders between monroe and pike counties. police say hundreds of tips including reports of possibly sightings of freen have narrowed the search area. earlier today we saw police officers with a blood houngd hound, leaving frñssñ home that's obviously there to pick up freen's scent. and also items that were abandoned by freen, including some ak-57 style weapons they say freen had on him at the time of the shooting last friday. police reiterated they have not exchanged any gun fire with freen and he has not made any
4:07 pm
contact with his parents. harris? >> you know what? i've been reading about how well planned they think this attack was. >> reporter: yeah, police say they believe freen has been planning this for months, maybe even years, they have spoken to people who have claimed that freen had conversations, but they didn't think he would act on attacking law officers. he had a very specific grudge against pennsylvania state troopers. they want people to remain vigilant, keep their lights on outside. this is a very wooded area, remain vigilant, but understand they don't think there's a real risk against the general public because they believe he's after the state police. they also said that freen surveyed the blooming grove barracks in the days or weeks in the time before the attack last friday. nerves are still on edge but they are as confident as ever they are going to get this guy.
4:08 pm
now to the big international story breaking wide open on this sunday, fighting between rebels backed by iran and the u.s.-backed government in yemen. although now we're learning of a possible peace agreement signing in all of this. and this follows months of violence which spread into the capital city tonight. in fact the u.s. has spent years trying to counter the terror threat there. it was somewhat of a hornet's nest for terrorists there. the campaign against al qaeda in yemen began in 2002. since then we have carried out morn 100 air strikes killing 500 militants. >> reporter: harris, after several days of violence, the yemeni government and shiite rebels have reportedly signed a deal to end the fighting. the fighting very much raged on between sunni rebels and many golf forces. the battle centers around the military base in the country's
4:09 pm
capital. that's where u thousands of people have fled their homes and an estimated 140 fighters have been killed though that number is likely to be even higher. all of this as yemen's prime minister resigned today amid the chaos, basically saying he wanted to step out of the way to make it easier for the u.n. brokered deal to be signed between shiite factions and the sunni majority government. the u.n. representative said the deal, quote, will lay the foundation for national partnership and for security and stability in the country. but as we know, harris, yemen as volatile and unstable history, being a base for al qaeda and islamic militants. harris? >> yeah, we only hope that peace deal can hold. yemen a terrorist hot spot in the world. let's bring in steven yates to talk about all this.
4:10 pm
former deputy assistant for national security affairs for vice president dick cheney. stephen always good to have you. a lot to get to here. it seems like the middle east has always been, well, a dangerous mess. is it worse now? >> i do, harris, believe it is getting somewhat worse. we have the spread of instability and radicalism getting more broad based and the news out of yemen is cautionary i think on two fronts. one it reminds us that our narrow focus on iraq and isis is not sufficient in terms of looking at the threat that we face across the region. the other area is that these measures that have been used against yemen over the years are the building blocks that the president plans to use against iraq and syria. if we ski yemen falling back into political disarray, is that a foreshadowing of where iraq and syria will go even after our intervention. >> talk to me about how yemen
4:11 pm
fits in in all of this, i mentioned that this government is u.s.-backed and fighting on the other side, technically i guess you could say iran. >> right, well, iran has been a very active force in the region, supporting islamist groups in multiple countries, it's been a part of basically a sectarian civil war, wherever fighting has broken out. yemen in particular has been a problem because of it's strategic low kracated on the w ways. but it's been -- underwear bomber and the printer cartridge attempt at terrorism here. so yemen has been a training ground and a hot bed of instability for some time. and these intelligence cooperative measures and drone strikes limited moves haven't really moved the needle fundamentally there. >> you said the focus on isis has not been sufficient.
4:12 pm
why do you think that is and how do we know that for sure? >> i look at two contrasting styles of presidential leadership. when president bush looked at the world after 9/11, he defined a global enemy a threat, he developed broad based strategy for all of our policies around the world and then he delegated those strategies to regional experts and his cabinet. president obama hasn't really provided that kind of strategic definition of an enemy or a strategy. e> have isolated strategies for isolated developments. so what we're doing in isis in iraq, isn't necessarily tied to a broader regional upheaval which we have all witnessed since the arab spring. >> our eye on a group, and this is a report that there may be a group in syria that may pose a bigger threat than isis. your quick thoughts on this?
4:13 pm
>> it is a group that has had very little focus and discussion. the civil war has been going on for a very long time. it's been a magnet of many different kind of foreign fighters. isis is the one we focus on white hot, and justifiably so, but it's not the only group and the only actor. this is a very complicated region and air strikes on isis are definitely not going to deal with these other groups. >> they have taken more than land, they have taken a couple of american lives very publicly. we're now learning more about this weekend's alarming security incident in our nation's capital. an intruder, seen jumping a fence, running through the doors of the white house and we know more now. and crews trying to knock down an inferno that shows no sign of slowing down. stay close. breathe through you. suddenly you're a mouthbreather. well, put on a breathe right strip and instantly open your nose up to 38% more than cold medicines alone.

4:16 pm
it's a non-nicotine pill. chantix reduced the urge for me to smoke. it actually caught me by surprise. some people had changes in behavior, thinking or mood, hostility, agitation, depressed mood and suicidal thoughts or actions while taking or after stopping chantix. if you notice any of these, stop chantix and call your doctor right away. tell your doctor about any history of mental health problems, which could get worse while taking chantix. don't take chantix if you've had a serious allergic or skin reaction to it. if you develop these, stop chantix and see your doctor right away as some could be life threatening. tell your doctor if you have a history of heart or blood vessel problems, or if you develop new or worse symptoms. get medical help right away if you have symptoms of a heart attack or stroke. use caution when driving or operating machinery. common side effects include nausea, trouble sleeping and unusual dreams. i did not know what it was like to be a non-smoker. but i do now. ask your doctor if chantix is right for you.

the u.s. is trying to built that broad coalition to destroy isis. more countries are now pledging support, although she refused to name them or detail hoich support those countries would actually provide. but she didgvy reiterate presid obama's pledge that there would be no boots on the ground. speaking taking in albania, his holiness saying, quote, to kill in the name of god is a grave sack rill ledge. a man seeking to enter the white house -- the cell phone video shows that person running across the north lawn. this was friday night. police say he had a knife, and made it all the way inside.
4:18 pm
inside, before security eventually stopped him. they have identified the suspect as 42-year-old omar gonzalez, a decorated iraq war veteran who was hired because of his disability. >> federal documents show omar gonzalez has no prior convictions or arrest warrants, he was not under the influence at the time of the incident on friday. we also know he served more than a decade in the u.s. military, including three tours of duty in iraq, even receiving a medal for his service before requiring back in 2012. gonzalez is scheduled for -- while carrying a deadly or dangerous weapon which does carry a punishment of up to 10 years in prison. he was carrying a 3 1/2 inch serrated bralade when he entere an unlocked door in the white house.
4:19 pm
>> as i understand it, this would be the first time that someone gained access into the white house in this way. >> gonzalez should not have made it to the north doors, an alarm system should have sent warnings to guards on site. lawmakers say they're going to hold hearings on the breach and some say the breach was easily prehaven preventab preventable. >> the reason he wasn't brought down because it was dpeemed he didn't have a weapon. so this demands a full investigation. >> i can tell you the fbi is laughing at this and really horrified at this incident, laughing at the secret service cover-up about what happened and that cover-up is secret service saying that the agents, the informant officers exercised admirable restraint. >> the secret service immediately ordering a comprehensive review, in the meantime, officer patrols and surveillance los angeles

action to combat climate change. the march in countriesaround the world comes two days before the start of a special u.n. summit on climate change. turkey, 700 refugees have streamed across the border and that number could be as high as 100,000 all together as families are fleeing the years old civil war. turkey is providing humanitarian aid but so far is not taking action against the terrorists killing people. and yemen may enter a peace teal with iranian backed militants. political unrest and terrorism like we have never seen it before. much of the middle east apparently on the verge of collapse, including yemen. and of course the situation in iraq and syria. all this taking place not long after the u.s. withdrew from the region.
4:32 pm
supposedly leaving behind a more, quote, stable iraq. remember the president said that. so how did we get here? who takes ownership for this? the fox news political insiders are here and you can join the confrontation on twitter, at harrisfaulkner, and i'm already talking with some of you. brad boykin, joining us from washington, pand doug shown. overarching, the bus has arrived at a very dangerous middle east. that's probably not breaking news because it's been a mess for a while. but this is new relatively speaking, why? >> well, it is the failure of leadership of the united states. i don't see this, harris, in strictly political terms, there's plenty to blame president obama for, for goodness sakes why we couldn't
4:33 pm
get a status of forces agreement in iraq to stabilize that country is a question i continux to ask. but it's deeper and bigger than that, it's a question of the bush administration and the ill advised decision to go into iraq in the first place and the failure of us to have a strategy to deal with unrest, instability and, yes, terrorism in that region. >> brad, i want to come to you with the question of, you have got the midterm elections coming up november 4. is this going to be one of instances where it isn't going to be the economy, stupid. maybe national security issues may pull people to the poll, is that possible? >> i think it's going to be a come bin nation of the way people feel, as we know, a high percentage of americans believe that the country is going down the wrong track, it's going to be how they feel economically and their security, especially with isis beheading two americans, we're seeing now the increase in violence in the middle east, now we're seeing it
4:34 pm
rising again in egypt and yemen and elsewhere. so i believe this is going to be a two pronged election, the economy and nashviltional secur for sure, those are going to be the two issues. but also the republicans have to focus on the other issues that are also going to be important regionally in their races. >> americans are saying they feel now more unsafe than ever and they feel like their voice is not being heart or carried out the way they want in washington. >> they are disenfranchised, that they are not the solve republic sovereigns of this country, but slaves of the -- it's not just, i agree with what doug said, bush's ill advised invasion and even worse occupation of iraq. obama is wanting to get out, and getting out too soon, which
4:35 pm
tonight, leon panetta, his secretary of defense is saying he was against, as was, i think hillary clinton sort of as far as i can tell. the president shall be ohas bee hiss own. even jimmy carter says we should attack isis, the only person who says he should and we don't is the president. in you can crane, they held a democratic fund-raiser, libya, the country liberated a few weeks ago, airplanes have a disappeared, we have had to abandon the country diplomatic. we are joining with iran to join a coalition? they are the enemy, and we have the person who negotiated, wendy sherman, the deal with the koreans which was a disaster on nuclear proliferation, she's there now giving even more
4:36 pm
concessions. what is going on hiere? >> you know where i wouldn't want to be in an administration under this fire week, at the u.n. this week from the general assembly is meeting. have we made grounds in any place that you can see. >> we have lost ground and, harris, as i said i think last week, and i have had a chance to think about it, when i was in korea, when i was in ukraine in the last week or so, the question i got was where is the united states, where is the united states leadership and what do you people stand for, where are you and what are you going to do? >> what do we stand for? >> right. because we don't articulate, harris, our core values and who we are as a people. >> that's particularly sad. >> it's very sad. >> we said we would stop the syrians with a red line. now we find out, by the way, after the administration has been crawling after the deal they got after they screwed that up, now we find out that john
4:37 pm
kerry, the secretary of state says they used chemical weapons again, those stockpiles are not gone. we have four people and prehelpeded at the border, who apparently have terrorist ties trying to come over the border. and the department of homeland security says i have heard something to that effect, but it hasn't checked out yet. >> so whenever i bring up the topic of our border and all of the illegals that are crossing it. i get tons of tweets that says the border, you get back to wherever. we can't ignore the border issue. these people are hunting us and there are a porous road for them to cross over. >> we haven't had secure borders since the founding of our country. and now more than ever -- look, how is it possible that we can send our troops to far away lands to secure their border, but somehow it's inappropriate to secure or own? we must secure the border not only for our own integrity but for our own safety. republicans and democrats, that
4:38 pm
should be a uniting issue, but the problem is the president has pushed a comprehensive omnibus immigration package instead of smaller packages, first securing the border, moving to legalization of those who are here illegally and taxation and visas a and the whole nine yards, we have to start with secure borders. >> i had asked this on twitter, we asked it inside the fox report, should america have a draft? charlie wrangle is saying yes. >> i think we need to consider something because we are ill served by a budget that is inadequate to meet the purposes and a fighting force that is inadequate to meet the many charges. >> you've got between a million and 3 million people trying to save the freedom for 300 million of us. >> and it's a small world actually. we have a navy that is smaller than it was in world war i. we have an army that hasn't been this small since before world war ii. and we have an air force -- >> is draft the answer?
4:39 pm
>> well, it's a budgeting issue, we certainly had the forces in the 1990s for the volunteer service. i think before you get to draft, you have to decide you have a war. we don't know we have a war. one thing i want to point out today, that's sis, speaking of why we're not taking them on. they are going door to door in those towns, these areas they control and in christian homes they're printing the letter n which means nazarene, then the troops come along and they ask you, either are you converting or do you want to be crucified if they're there. and they do that children. >> and we don't even know this. >> well, we'll talk more, stay with us, we'll be right back. ♪ [ male announcer ] when your office is 1,500 acres, it's good to have the right help. with models up to 62 horsepower or 1,400-pound payload. go tough. go strong. go gator.

fi fire -- department representatives defending themselves before the house select committee, the very first one on benghazi, arguing security has been a top priority since the attack left four americans including our doron at the u.s. consulate two years ago. some critics place the blame squarely on then secretary of state hillary clinton. brad, i want to go to you first. you know, i criticized a little bit, based on what i saw and heard last week that it felt like this was the seventh hearing and not the first, that there wasn't a lot of that emotional fire at that hearing. your thoughts? >> well, it's important, you know, it almost took two plus years to get to the bottom of watergate. and the american people understand, we know that from polling that something stinks in benghazi, it did not go right and there was a cover-up.
4:44 pm
and hillary clinton, the buck stops with her, as the president, she was the secretary of state. having said that, this is going to be an issue, and i agree with senator rand paul that benghazi is tied at the hip to hillary clinton, whatever she hasn't answered now, she will have to answer if she runs. she cannot escape her complicity in what happened in benghazi. >> all right, so there's a new reason to watch what's going on because of what pat mentioned that's happening now in libya, the fact that terrorists have taken over the government posts in that country and they are backed biby eier iran. >>uñ you remember the people we were going to bring justice? that's the same -- look, i had said over and over and over and we have been carrying the for of fox and on this program particularly, for almost two years. this is the greatest cover-up in the history of america. it's the worst decision making,

and it is the greatest political cover-up and there are many people in my party, unlike watergate, some republicans were willing to stand up, many of them against richard nixon in the corruption. here no one speaks out and i'll tell you, i'm hoping that first day was just laying down a base at the former policy. it was so boring, if that's what they're going to do, this is a waste. i want those men in the documentary, 13 hours, which opened number one on the "new york times" best seller list before it was in bookstores. you put those people up, and then you get the people in the state department and let's get down to starting with the lies of what happened that night and then also where our president was and who invented the video. >> so when i criticized that there was not enough passion, the other people on our couch said, no, no, it could just be a strategy, and as pat said, okay, fine, but then what's next? >> a hurried strategy.
4:46 pm
>> republicans are afraid of overreaching. bipartisan. our need, our hunger to know what happened there should be everybody in the country. >> it should be, but this is 45 days before an election. the democrats are at a stall, the republicans are afraid to blow a victory that they think they have, but rest assured, it's not yet locked up. >> we have all the ammunition, we have it on benghazi, that we need to really step on it with these hearings. and there's a sense of, wait, wait, let's just go slow, everybody's trying to get past november. and that's not a very good strategy, we're seeing it not only in been gas si, we're seeing it in national security interests, we're seeing it on the economy. as far as i'm concerned, as a republican, it's every man and woman for themselves. there is a national strategy for this election and that's what we're missing. >> let's talk to senator rand
4:47 pm
paul about this tying it to secretary of state clinton. >> i think she didn't answer the phone, and i it should absolute precluder from being considered for higher office. >> we talked about this a little bit previously last weekend right before it was about to happen. in iowa, she came right back on the scene, and then this hearing comes up. >> i think she's overstating the case, but we did learn this week, that a credible source that has to be taken seriously has made allegations that hillary clinton's chief of staff and key staffers were pulling documents out so that they didn't go to the accountability review board. harris, there are a lot of questions that hillary clinton will have to answer. >> that sounds really serious. and i want to say that sheryl t atkinson was doing the reporting on this. this was somebody who was cast with leading the department and was not invited to the basement
4:48 pm
where this was going on. >> this is not the enemy of the president. >> he's also a disgruntled employee as well. >> they're trying to blame him for benghazi, the innocent are blamed and the guilty are going free. >> tell me what this does to hillary's aspiration, is rachnd paul overstating when he says she's done? >> i don't want -- mr. rogers intelligence committee, who said, who he was joining the democrats trying to suppress any benghazi hearings, as his wife works security industry, and if that's not enough, he is, you know, he's the one rogue reporter, his committee saying they did everything they could that night, there was nothing they could do, directly contradicting now we have people who after being hidden are out there. she is a hostage to this. the fate will be what happens. but the problem is, everyone, as
4:49 pm
brad said and doug said, it's about elections, it's not about the country, aren't you people tired, americarawu the politics coming often? the president is going to grant amnesty to 5 million to 11 million people. i don't see the republicans raising that issue. >> the republicans have the vote. >> brad, i want to get you in here. >> i got to say, i agree with my two democratic friends, that republicans have been completely silent on immigration, on health care, on the economy, on jobs, on debt, why? because they're banking that the american people will be more concerned about isis and foreign policy than they will about the economy. >> are they right? >> they're not right, no. they're not right. and things are going to have to turn around the next 30 days or so. >> all right, we're going to take a quick break, stay close. there's a reason no one says

i just want to very quickly touch on domestic violence for a moment and the nfl under fire for its hand lgs of abuse of women and/or children. we saw some lawmakers over the last week or so, a bipartisan group of lawmakers getting together and calling for different penalties for athletes and so forth. but something pops up. i'm curious to get the panel's point of view on this. not the same treatment, and it's outside the nfl, it's in the world of professional soccer. but just real quickly, some of the criticism that i have seen is that she shouldn't be on the field right now either but we're treating men and women differently. >> i think there's a different issue and a larger one is that the american people want fairness in the administration of justice. why should soccer players or nfl
4:54 pm
players have different standard than we all have, and why should roger goodell speak for 44 minutes saying nothing and keep his job and get $44 million? none of that makes sense. >> this thing with the nfl, i know it's important, but right now the world is blowing up, we have a country where three-quarters of american people believe their children will not have a better future, which is a moral issue. 60% believe the country is in declid decline and the news media wants to spend its time on this. i want to know how you can't get three fbi agents in benghazi, while all the evidence is being blundered. but you can send 40 of them out to missouri in a couple of hours. >> and the nfl can't get to the atlantic county prosecutor's office to get video footage, apparently. >> you guys feel strongly. brad, real quickly? >> i'm on the board for sports fan coalition, we fight for sports fans, my partner on the
4:55 pm
board is a good friend, a senior advise for to clinton. the nfl has gotten a way with a lot over the years, it's nonprofit status, there's a whole bunch of issues where they have been protected. whether it's baseball, football, professional sports, they should be held to the same standard as everyone else. >> it's been something you've been talking about on social media. >> i just want to say the same team that came up with is not winning states in the 2012 senate, but losing seats. to establish republicans victory, lost in states, in montana, in north dakota, carried heavily by ronald reagan because of a republican message and no narrative. we have another election where the country nationally has looked at polls and saying this election is going the explode and i think they may snatch
4:56 pm
defeat from the jaws of victory again. >> harris, the issue is not money, it's message. as brad said correctly, they need a message on immigration, on the economy, on terror. what they would do and what the president's failing to do so far, they're mia. >> brad, last word. >> harris, it's not enough to be against something, you got to stand for something, we should have had a 10-point plan for republicans in every portion of the country. take seven of the ten that work in your area, whether it's economy, debt, health care, and national security, immigration and work those issues to the benefit of your campaign. >> that's why you're not getting dullard's they're not appear either. >> we wonhich is why kansas is blowing up, folks, because an independent is winning there. >> so many issues of concern for this country. certainly looks like politics. more important perhaps to the president. thank you for joining us,
