it was an instant savings and i should've changed a long time ago. there's no point in looking elsewhere really. we're the tenneys and we're usaa members for life. usaa. get your insurance quote today. >> sean: th >> sean: thanks, tucker. this is a fox news alert. welcome to "hannity." we are reporting live from las vegas near the scene of the most deadly shooting in american history. we are awaiting a police news conference. we will bring it to you. also tonight, we will speak witn multiple eyewitnesses, heroes, and we have reporters on the ground. in the wake of this horrific mass shooting, democrats, late-night comedians, celebrities, members of the liberal mainstream media, they are racing to politicize this national tragedy. it's beyond shameful, disturbing, we will have more that just a minute. president trump traveled to puerto rico to survey they

recovery efforts after the island was devastated by two hurricanes. geraldo rivera caught up with the president for an exclusive interview you will only see right here on "hannity." all of that and more from vegas in tonight's opening monologue. on the ground in vegas tonight, 59 people have died. 527 literally were injured. 527 people. innocent civilians. americans. after a mad man went on a rampage during a country music .festival. tonight, authorities are still working to determine the motive behind us shooting. here's what we know so far about this mad man. his name is stephen paddock. according to his brother, he was a multimillionaire who was a i frequent gambler. there are reports that the gunman's father was a bank robber and was on the fbi's most wanted list. paddock extensively planned this massacre. there's also released video of the hotel room crime scene wherk you can see the gun that paddock

used to carry out the deadly ground.aying on the 23 guns were found in the room t including some that were modified in order to fire, like an automatic weapon. according to reports, paddock set up a camera inside the hotel room to film his rampage. they also set up security footage and we are asking the hotel tonight -- release this. the american people deserve to see what happened.d. police also say that paddock put a camera inside of a food cart that was left outside of his room in the hallway so he could see if any police were coming. also tonight, we are learning more about the shooter's girlfriend. her name, marilou danley,re authorities are now saying as a person of interest.e, sources are telling fox news that paddock sent thousands of dollars overseas that may have been for his girlfriend. she's currently traveling in the philippines. however, it remains unclear who actually received this money.li u.s. government sources arele

telling fox news that investigators have interviewed an immediate relative of stephen paddock's girlfriend. this relative described the gunman as "unstable" and said he made them feel very t uncomfortable. we will have much more on the possible motive throughout this hour. democrats, liberals and the mainstream media, celebrities, late-night comedians, alls, predictably rushing to politicize this tragedy and predictably calling for more gun control. we will get those examples in aa second. unlike them, we promised you on this show -- we care about truth and facts and victims and families and we are not peddling conspiracy theories or rushing to judgment. we are not trying to use this incident to score cheap political points. it's probably why we almost doubled our competitors in the ratings last night.s. the american people, you can no longer trust these people in the mainstream media. it is sad. journalism in america is dead. we told you liberal cnn reporter

jeff zeleny said the only reason the president cares about the vegas shooting is because the victims are probably his supporters. we also told you about cbs firing one of their lawyers. why? for mocking the shooting victims and not even caring. unfortunately, things are getting much worse. t before we show you these grotesque and appalling examples, and i want to watch. this ever so powerful video. this is from the concert last night. i an hour before the shooting took place, 30,000 people in the crowd.d. my friend, friend, big & rich, they led the crowd. they honored the military. almost everyone in the crowd raising their phone, with the light and singing collectively "god bless america." watch this powerful video. ♪ god bless america ♪ my home sweet home

come on, vegas -- sing! ♪ my home sweet home >> sean: so powerful. so necessary. we all need to come together like the people in the crowd did one hour before the massacre. they weren't republicans or democrats, liberals or conservatives, americans singing "god bless america." i'll get back to my monologue in a second. there's a press conference going on at this hour. we want to get the latest information. we will come back to the monologue. >> i'll make it very clear to patience from you. this investigation is a long time from being concluded. we recently went down to mandalay bay. i can tell you we are days away from processing or completing the process of that room. we are getting very close to the

completion of the processing of the site. we have a significant amount of time left there as well. the southbound portion of las vegas boulevard is completely open. we are also working to diligently as we speak. we opened up two of the northbound lanes. the completion of the northbound lanes should occur sometime this evening. so bearing in mind that the investigation is dynamic, ongoing, continuing -- i don't have a lot of answers for you yet.st clearly understanding that nobody wants answers to "why?" more than the police and victims and their families. we want to get it right. that's why it will take time. we will take that time. there's some at best interesting reporting about how long the shooting lasted and how long it took us to get into the room. first question is how long that the actual shooting last?

i'm prepared to give you some information on that. the first call came into our. dispatch at 10:08 p.m. about shots being fired. the suspect we know fired off and on for somewhere between 9-11 minutes. we know the suspect fired over a dozen or so volleys. we know the firing by the suspect ceased at 10:19. the first minute the police are aware of shots being fired atrs 10:08, and it ended at 10:19. a remarkable response by the police department. another question that came out, how long before our s.w.a.t. team entered the suspect's room? someone said 72 minutes. why so long? as i just mentioned, as the sheriff mentioned previously in the briefing, we had patrol officers working in another

event at mandalay bay who heard the shooting and took it upon themselves to form into a team and entered the stairwell, ascending the floors and evacuating hotel guests. the s.w.a.t. team had to arrive first at mandalay bay before they could take any action. as i mentioned earlier, there was a very heroic security guard. who was shot during the searchwh of that suspect. that security guard went up to the room, advancing towards the room when the suspect fired towards the door at the security guard and struck him.m. he was able to provide additional information to the police on exactly what room we were looking at.t. however at that time, it is important to note that the shooting had stopped. we are considering it a barricade at that point because it is no longer an active shooter. we are not hearing any further shots. the floors had already been evacuated with the gas.. the suspect was isolated and contained within a room. at the point the s.w.a.t. team

made their decision based on when it was appropriate toto en enter. i want to make it clear again to you that while there was that slight delay, the suspect was no longer firing into the crowd. there was a question about the validity of the crime scene photos that somebody had leaked. i can confirm those are in fact photos from the inside of room. they are in fact photos of our suspect and as the sheriff mentioned previously, we have all opened up an internal investigation to determine the source and leaks of those photos to the public. you ask what we found in the sheriff's or -- suspect's room -- the sheriff spoke about that, cameras being located. to clarify, there were two cameras located in the hallway. so that the suspect could watch as law enforcement werech approaching the room.

there was another camera placedr inside the hotel room door peephole so he could see down the hallway. at this point, you had a number of questions about the weapons and the sac from the atf to my right, jill snyder will answer or provide a statement to you but not take any questions. >> good evening. i am special agent in charge, jill snyder. of atf san francisco field division. special agents from the san francisco field division las vegas field office responded to the shooting that occurred on sunday.t additional agents from other locations within the san francisco field division as well as agents from atfth los angeles, dallas, phoenix, and boston field divisions have been working on this investigation. we know you have many questions regarding the firearms in this case. there's also been a lot of unofficial information being recorded -- reported regarding the guns.

we would like to clear up any conflicting information regarding the number of firearms and the current status of the trace information. please understand that this investigation is ongoing and they won't be taking questions at this time because we are still working through all of our investigative findings. i will give you the facts we have as of this time. currently, 47 firearms have been recovered.in these firearms were recovered from three different locations. those locations consisted of the hotel room, as well as verdi and mesquite, nevada. they were purchased in nevada, utah, california, and texas. the gunman purchased rifles, shotguns, and pistols.d at this time, none of the guns recovered appear to be homemade.

there were 12 bump fire stocks in the hotel room. the atf firearms and ammunition technology division research is the of bump fire stocks. whether they mechanically alter the firearm to fire fully automatic. bump fire stocks while simulating automatic fire do not actually alter the firearm to fire automatically, making them legal under current federal law. it is still being determined which firearms were used in the shooting. all of the firearms have been traced. we are still awaiting results from some of the firearms that were located at the mesquite residence. as the investigation proceeds, atf will continue to conduct interviews and provide resources to the sheriff and all our locan law enforcement departments. thank you.

>> as this investigation continues on, we continue to hear stories of heroic police officers, first responders and average citizens alike. i commend all of their actions as they showed immense courage in the face of extreme danger. i want to mention one of those brave people was las vegas metropolitan police officer hartfield. he was at the route 91 concert along with his wife when shots rang out. even though officer hartfield was at the concert as a civilian, he immediately took action to save lives. in that moment, he was acting as a police officer. he ultimately gave his life protecting others. officer hartfield was an 11 1 year member of the las vegas pd and leaves behind a wife and two children.

we are very grateful for his sacrifice. there will be a vigil at october 5th, at 6:00 p.m. it is being hosted by our police detective association. as this community has become accustomed, when we doe provide information in regards to our critical incidents, we release body cam footage to you. there is a significant amount of bodyworn camera footage to go through. i will play a clip on our new very large monitor. a compilation of a number of those body worn cameras. you will see the officers were dealing with somewi uncooperatie citizens at times but at all times, they were trying to locate the source of the gunfire as well as evacuate those

citizens that were in the line of fire. i think the video will speak for itself. i will try to narrate a little bit for you as we try to go through. carlos, if you could play that for me. >> that wall faces mandalay bay. they are hunkered down behind that wall after an initial volley of shots. >> get down! go that way! get down! go that way! g go that way. go that way.

>> at this point, they are still trying to figure out where the rounds are coming from. [bullets firing] >> go that way. go that way. they are shooting right at us, guys. everybody stay down. stay down. >> mandalay bay. >> get behind. cover.an >> a couple of officers hunkered down next to a patrol vehicle on las vegas boulevard. one of our officers gets shot. >> get back. get back.

>> get back. get back. >> get in there. >> mandalay bay. >> this video is obscured. the officers wearing the yellow reflective vest, that's what you are actually seeing. >> everybody get down, get down. get down. [bullets firing] >> very difficult to tell but the officer is standing over another woman. [bullets firing] >> get down. get down. >> i heard him say "i have a vest on."

>> go. this way, this way, this way. that way, that way, that way. go, go, go. that way, that way, that way. >> before i take some questions, i understand the coroner is here now. sorry, i was looking right past you. >> thank you. first, i would like to say my condolences go out to all those involved in this incident. especially the family and friends who have lost loved ones in this incident and i would like to provide some updated information on what is happenind at the family assistance center, the convention center. we are fully operational all h evening, all through the night and tomorrow at noon, we will make a determination with whether or not we will be open 24 hours going forward but at

minimum, we will be open from present time to 5:00 p.m.ns tomorrow. h we are still fully operational to answer any questions that the families may have, any friends of the families. i would also like to clarify we are not releasing property at the family assistance center. as the sheriff mentioned earlier, that's going to be released. they are developing a plan p currently to release that property in the future and i am certain it will be put out there one of these press conferences.. i would like to also discuss some of the numbers we have been dealing with over there, we had that question earlier. by multiple media outlets. it is estimated we have served over 1,000 family members and friends at the assistance center. we are providing all sorts of services to include bereavement services and our staff at the clark county coroner's office has been meeting with every family. i'd like to again thank them. they are an amazing group of

people and they are doing amazing job serving everyone ofm these families. i think everybody except for the families would consider this agh huge success at the family assistance center and rightly so. the reason the families may not is because if they are waiting one minute longer for us to provide information, it's too long. they've been very patient.be i appreciate that. we are doing everything we can to communicate with them and get them the information that they need. if they want to come down to the family assistance center, we are there to receive them and communicate them. if they are not able to attend, i would like to provide the number. in nevada, 2-1-1. out of nevada, 1-866-535-5654. we have call takers standing by. i believe that has tailored off quite a bit. to date, we have received over

3,000 missing persons reports. i'd like to clarify what that means people don't miss report the intent of that number or the intent of me giving you that number. that by no means means that we have 3,000 people missing. we believe that all 59 of the deceased are identified. tentatively. we are working on positively identifying the rest of them. we believe that will happen by the end of this evening.e we estimate in between 9:00 and 10:00 p.m. that's very normal for us to receive an excessive amount of missing persons reports. following an incident like this. by no means we have outstanding missing persons, we have very detailed -- we believe everyone involved in the incident from the decedents standpoint is accounted for and we are awaiting to communicate that with their families. i am available to answer anyte questions that you may have.

i have limited time to answer questions so i will take a few. >> reporter: [indistinct question] >> yes, the majority of them did. i'm not at liberty to tell you whether all of them did die as a result of gunshot wounds, simply because i don't know at this point. >> reporter: [indistinct question] >> i will make that public. i imagine that's not going to happen until the earliest tomorrow morning.av >> what about the ones that have not been identified? have their families not heard from them? >> as i spoke earlier, we have tentatively identified them. we are working on some confirmation issues. and i am confident they will all be identified. we believe we know who every single one of them is. it's just a matter of confirming

that. we don't have the liberty to make any mistakes. we have to get it right. we've got to get this right so we need your patience and we are going to work through the night to get that right. i am hopeful we will have all og those confirmed by the tomorrow morning and the families notified. yes, sir. >> [indistinct question] >> this is a fox news alert. i am jackie ibanez from new york. we found that the girlfriend has returned to the u.s. pretty the associated press is reporting that she was met by federal agents at the airport. earlier this week we learned that the gunmen transferred $100,000 overseas. and investigators are taking a harder look at his girlfriend. you see her right here on the right-hand side of your screen.

62-year-old marilou danley. and what she might have known about the attack. caroline shively is live in las vegas with more on the breaking story. >> hello, jackie, this will be in a very important interview. police have been saying for two days that they want to speak to the girlfriend. she was in the philippines. they were asking her to come back here. they were saying, we just want to talk with you. yesterday they stepped up the classification, calling her a person of interest. the fbi told us today that the gunmen stephen paddock had 47 firearms and thousands, literally thousands of rounds of ammunition in the hotel room in his various homes. ammonium nitrate used in the car. the very question, what did the girlfriend of the gunmen know and when did she know, what can she tell police about the motive in this case? because that is a very big question tonight. why did the gunmen committed this heinous act? they are trying to get answers

from the girlfriend. >> let's go to trace gallagher, he is live on the phone from las vegas. if trace, we had you doing the show about 15 minutes ago, and w we are learning that they do have his girlfriend here in the u.s. they are going to question her. a lot of questions tonight as she is probably the number one person who might know the most about him. >> sure, they doubled back page just a few days ago they were saying, no, she is not a person of interest. so with each news conference, she gets a little bit more important in the case. they said today that they were saying, a total that this woman is definitely a person of interest. that this woman does have more information. and if you just think about the scope of this thing, over the past two days they have found 47 weapons in the hotel room, in the homes they own together, or he owns and she lives with him

in mesquite on fatah and -- they have been rated and they have fd explosives, multiple weapons, and as they say, a plethora of ammunition. so the very aspects of all the experts we have talked to to say that you could live with somebody and see this arsenal of explosives and weapons, and not at least have some inclination afloat is going on or ask the question, why do you have all of this? that's what police are drawing back this woman thinking that she might be at the very least able to give them some insight into what he was doing in the weeks that led up to this attack and at the very most, she might have known or been suspicious of something you did not say. we have seen it before, we have seen it before in the orlando shooting that the wife had suspicions but did not go to police. that's what they are looking for in this case, what was her knowledge of his run-up in the weeks and months leading up to this? we heard today that there was

actually a report that came out that he might have been casing another concert site. he might have gotten a hotel room or condominium rented at a different site in las vegas for a total separate concert so the question becomes, well, what was he planning? a different venue? was this a last minute thing? was he planning a more spectacular thing? the ammonium nitrate found inside his car that was parked at the valet of the mandalay bay goes to show that there was something else that might have been up here. the ammonium nitrate was the same thing that was used in the oklahoma city bombing. so what was the ultimate goal of this killer and dated this wife -- girlfriend have any kind of inkling that he might have been up to you at the very least some type of wrongdoing? >> trace, something else that i find interesting. he does not have an electronic footprint. there's not much that you can

learn about him from going online. in this day and age, that is hard to find. >> it is very hard to find. we know, we have covered a bunch of mass shootings. within 15 or 20 minutes after the name comes out, we withhold the information until we confirm it, but 15 minutes after coming you go online and there is a rundown on social media. you have background, you have political ideology. you have a religious belief. you have it all there in the nutshell, and piece it together. in this case, boy, social footprint, media footprint was void. his brother says that he was not -- no political affiliation, no religious affiliation, no mental instability. the family is saying that. the family did not know that he had an arsenal of weapons and a couple of his homes. there are somethings that the family did not know. but when it came to tracking this guy, the worse that they could find on him criminally in the past several years was a traffic ticket. we found out that his father was

a bank robber, and he was a pretty good bad guy. but as far as he went, he was a gambler. he made some big bets in the recent months. the 10,030,000, but as well as criminal history, there was none. kind of an odd guy, kind of a loner, kind of a mean guy, kind of spoke me into his girlfriend, but on record, no violent history and no criminal history to speak of. >> we are also learning that he transferred $100,000 to the philippines before this. also a little bit interesting to authorities. they will look into that and talk to the girlfriend who came from the philippines. >> sure, they want to know where the money is going. the assumption is that it is going to the girlfriend, is he trying to support her? did she know that he was going to do this and is he trying to get as much money out of the savings account? as soon as something like this happens, all of his assets are frozen. when he does this, whatever she

had, whatever they had in common, if he had any money, it would all be frozen. everything that has to do with his life now is frozen. it belongs to the federal government for the time being until they can figure out exactly what role she might have played in this. so suspicion is, look, he is sending $100,000 to her as a gesture, i'm giving this money to you, it is out of the united states, you can get a hold of it, and you can use this to live on. maybe that is why she was in the philippines. nobody knows. nobody knows if the money was going to her. all the investigators will say, yes, we think that the money might have been going to her. but who knows? it might of been going to her vis-a-vis something else and she was sending it out to somebody else. so it is unclear. that is what they want to talk to her about. what was the money for? what was her plan? was she going to stay in the philippines? was it to travel? her social footprint is fast, she is on facebook saying, i'm a

grandmother, a mother, i'm happy. she speaks to her sister all the time on facebook. she is out there. we know a lot about her. which is why in the initial hours into the first day of the investigation, they did not threw her out, but they separated her from the actual crime saying that today did not think that she was involved in the crime. which i still don't, but they believe that she knows a lot more than she is letting on. >> well, it will be interesting to find out if she came willingly or they had to convince her to come here to the u.s., but we will know more in the next couple of hours if not the next couple of days on what was his mind-set behind all of this. trace gallagher, thank you so much pride to tonight, if you are just tuning in, we learned that the girlfriend of the state expected -- suspected shooter -- met by federal agents at the l.a. airport earlier this week we learned that the gunman transferred hundred thousand dollars overseas to the

philippines and investigators are now taking a harder look at his girlfriend. you see her on the right-hand side of your screen. 62-year-old marilou danley on what she might have known about the attack. we are going to continue to follow this throughout the night. we will have more for you if anything breaks. and of course, starting on "fox & friends" at 5:00 a.m., and we go back to "hannity" which is already in progress. >> we are saying enough to the invasion and the euphemism. they can take those euphemisms and stuff them. > we have to ask ourselves te same question again. is there nothing that we can do? want to know what pathetic looks like?ok look at these tweets. a congressman named seth maltin after orlando, i will not be joining my colleagues in a moment of silence on the house floor that just becomes an excuse for an action. now is not a moment for silence.

it is a time for action. really, congressman? you are that petty. that bitterly partisan that you cannot even bow your head and honor those that died and those that are fighting for their lives in hospitals? you are pathetic. he wasn't alone. democratic congresswoman catherine clark also refusing to honor victims with a simple moment of silence. these liberals, these people on the left are so blinded by their hatred for their president, the second amendment, they can't even focus on what is important. just like these celebrities, democratic politicians aremp massive hypocrites when it comes to guns. don't they have their own armed police force just to keep them safe? most americans don't have that and like a lot of celebrities and all these late-night hosts that have paid their millions of dollars, you want to have a t debate?av that's fine. facts aren't on your side. take a look at this headline.

"gun control in europe is almost total. it hasn't stopped mass shootingg attacks like las vegas." and in europe some of the strictest gun control laws on the planet yet there are still mass shootings there. by the way, the left are always morally outraged over these mass shootings but do you even remember them talking about the out-of-control violence, the unprecedented violence in chicago when barack obama was president? let's look at the videotaped statistics. during the obama presidency, there were over 3900 murderers in his adopted hometown. did you hear anything from the left, the late-night comedians, lady gaga, the genius that she is? or what about the more than 18,000 people shot in chicago? just during the last six years of obama's presidency? did anybody on the left, all these people out there, did anys of them go to chicago to try to help those people being shot? we listed their names on this show.

take a look at the side of your screen. we will show you the victims of this shooting in vegas throughout the hour. this is the only thing that matters right now. honoring those victims. supporting their families. praying for their recovery. that should be the main focus of the moment. now is not the time to make cheap political points, to divide the country and push your cheap political agenda and try to use the tragedy to further ac bitter partisan agenda. how about the country can come together like they did an hour before this terrible shooting and nearly 30,000 people with their cell phones in the air, lights bright as the lights can see. singing "god bless america."" joining us now, bob lewis is with us. bob's daughter was at the concert sunday night. he rushed down to the shooting seem to find her.

him. >> sean: your daughter was there. you hear about this. you served on the police force for how long? >> 27 years. 20 of them on the s.w.a.t. team. >> sean: you know how dangerous the situation is. >> she called me. she was at the intersection. with mandalay bay. she calls me screaming petrified. she says dad, the police are making me get down and i hear firecrackers. she said it sounded like firecrackers and i'm hearing the rapid-fire of an automatic weapon. i'm like emily, that is not firecrackers.f can you see anything? she said i'm literally in a dog pile of people. a police car just pulled up to block where they believe the shots were coming from. she said i can't get across the street. i said okay, stay down. >> sean: let me guess -- dad went running. >> i was in flip flops, shorts and a t-shirt. i did not grab keys. i was so terrified. >> sean: you went and got your gun? >> i jumped back in the car and

i got down here. the whole time i am on the phone with her telling her what to do and she is running. i'm telling her i need to knowee which way you are running. but she's yelling out landmarks. she said i just passed oasis. hayden street. the street we are on, just doesn't go through. she said i'm running to a building that says videopoker.com. i'm driving like a unit like a lunatic get down. it took me 53 minutes to get to her. >> sean: scary. >> the nice thing was as she was running, the gunfire was lessening. i could hear it weakening. i knew she was running away. >> sean: colin, you served in iraq. >> i got back on september 7th. >> sean: where the concert. you knew it immediately? >> it sounded like fireworks but at the same time, i had heard those sounds before. it was surreal. i talked to a guy on my left. he dropped. i looked at him.

i was like are you all right? and he said i just got shot in the leg. it i was like yep, that is a bullet hole. put a finger on it. everybody dropped on the second. volley. once the volley ended, i was trying to cover and once we started clearing out the areas, we started doing some hasty triage to make sure people were all right. one of my friends, olivia is a nurse. she followed me around. we were verifying whether people were breathing or not. then doctors, medics, numerous people were helping out. it wasn't just me. >> sean: you were able to help. what was your background in the military? >> roger, i was -- >> sean: i can't tell you are in the military. roger.r. >> i will continue -- >> sean: thank you for your

service. you were able to help save lives. >> we tried. we definitely tried. tons of other people that were doing the same thing i was doing. >> sean: russell, you were there. you taking videos. what were you thinking as you are watching the horror unfold? >> i saw people dropping. we were in the vip tent closest to the shooter when i heard the first three rounds. i started shooting video. i was shooting video at the concert. it was the last song. >> sean: right back here. >> yes. it took us 15 minutes to get out of the tent right behind you. running one way. and you see rounds hitting the ground. and running the other way. >> sean: you are a hero. you got out safely. thank god. helping other people. thank god you were there for your buddy. i'm glad your daughter is all right and we are still praying for your son, the unlv hockey

you have really good news you're breaking. >> we know the woman that they have been looking for -- i'm told she's going to be landing in los angeles tonight. they brought her back. no direct flight from the philippines to vegas. from malaysia but not from the philippines. you assume she will be on a flight from los angeles to here on i assume the same night.. >> sean: you also spent time in the neighborhood where this guy was. what can you tell us? >> yeah, sean. in this neighborhood, the shooter was basically a ghost. no one would really interact with him. they would see him from time to time. he ate at taco bell and played at the casinos but -- >> sean: millionaire, played a lot. >> definitely wealthy. it lived in a very nice neighborhood in mesquite. 55 and up community that is still growing. but wasn't very flashy. not a lot of furniture outside. just a single chair in his backyard. >> sean: did he talk to neighbors a lot?

>> no, neither did hisju companion. >> sean: there's a story here, guys.. >> it's interesting. we talk to people at the hotel. he is known. some of the workers were shocked when they saw his face. he was known as a big gambler. he stayed in two different cabana. i'm told from people in the casino where they send the guys or gals, the high rollers, they knew who he was he was. >> sean: maybe that's how he got all the guns in the room.s >> asset to someone who knows the hotel very well. recently left, they say. there are thousands of people coming in with bags every day. if he was here for four days, he could have brought into a day. >> sean: good point. but they did know him? >> yes. >> sean: let's go back to the girlfriend. obviously she's not a person of interest. she's going to land inin los angeles tonight. good reporting on your part.or we got this money -- they wouldn't answer at the press conference. there is some story.

i've been seeing pictures online.. i am very wary about what i'm seeing.e. i'm reading at a lot of different things out here. that he had been to the philippines with her. i'm sure you've seen the same photos online but we have not confirmed it.e >> there is a lot going to the neighborhood, maybe this is the only woman that had any kind of insight with him.e that's what everyone wants to know. >> sean: a little bit of insight from the other relative that was uncomfortable. i guess that was her brother? the relative but said he wasn't comfortable just being around him. >> that would point to some problems with this individual. for me it was interesting. talking to folks at the hotel.l. they've been getting a lot of phone calls from people blaming them for not stopping it. it's tough for a hotel. with that magnitude, that many people going through? this guy could have easily done this without anybody noticing anything. the employee say he was a quiet

guy. they knew him. a lot of employees -- certain employees did not recognize him right away. some were at the concert. >> sean: in the age and they have social media, granted he's in a different generation -- you can get something about somebody. it's like he's a ghost. this guy. i think there's a bigger story that we are going to find out. guys, good to see you. i don't get to see you much. thank you for your good reporting. next time -- no tie. we are outside. geraldo rivera was on the ground in puerto rico covering the devastation for over a week. just a few hours ago, he caught up with president trump while he was touring the damage for an exclusive interview you willll only see tonight, right here on "hannity." watch this and we will come back to vegas.as >> president of the united states. thank you for coming. i'm sorry you are seeing the island under the circumstances. many people fear because of the awful tragedy in vegas he would be diverted.

you came anyway. why? >> they are special people -- i know many people from puerto rico, i come from a place called new york and i love the puerto rican people. i know the island very well. i've been here many times. we have to help. we've done a fantastic job.. it was a very tough one. an a+ in texas. an a+ in florida. and we may have done our best work here but it hasn't been appreciated but actually if you see over the last couple of days, people are seeing what we've done. the runways are open. the ships are pouring in.. a lot of things are happening. it's great.on >> on the note of not being appreciated, i know the mayor of san juan -- she's a probable democratic candidate for governor in 2020. she did not applaud. welcome to the bitter partisan politics of puerto rico. you've been blamed from everything to kids dying -- >> i don't know the mayor but she was very, very nice at the beginning. she says it's incredible what happened and all of a sudden she

went a little bit on the nasty side.ed and i guess she's running for office and it turns out i was right. isn't that a shock? your current governor, he is been amazing.at your congresswoman has been absolutely amazing and the people, i met your state senators and lots of other people. virtually every mayor has been so thankful. the job we've done. it's the job of the navy and army and air force and marines. the whole thing. the u.s. coast guard, what they've done, the lives they have saved -- the people are really very thankful. >> battered by two historic storms -- they wiped out a power grid that was already antiquated. poorly maintained. corruptly managed. what do you do? is the marshall plan rebuilding, we see a trump plan to rebuild this poor island? >> we are going to help the people. a lot of people and a lot of

debt, somebody and that before the hurricanes hit. they had a power plan that didn't work before the hurricane. we are going to help them. we are going to get it back feet. p i'm very proud of the fact that if you look at one statistic, 16 deaths.t that's a lot of deaths. but 16 -- if you look at katrina, they had in the thousands. this was a storm, the likes of which nobody has ever seen. a we had fema before the storm even came. they were on the island before the first storm. they got hit by two hurricanes. we are very proud of the job we've done. now we will have to try to get them back, the power is slowly getting on.. the roads are open. the runways are open. these people that you've met today, the first responders, these are incredible people. >> i totally agree. it's been so impressive to-- se. the message to the puerto rican

people, to what extent do you commit to help this battered place? >> we are going to work something out. they owe a lot of money to your friends on wall street. we will have to wipe that out. it's going to have to be, you can say good-bye to that. i don't know if it's goldman sachs but whoever it is, you can wave good-bye to that. the debt was massive on the island. >> my aunt ellie doesn't care about that. she wants some help -- she wants to hear from you. >> we are going to help the people out.at we are going to get the electric going again. it was a complete wipeout.ut it was a lot of very valuable equipment. it was equipment in bad shape but we are going to put it in good shape.ui >> i really appreciate it. >> you been a great friend. thank you. >> sean: live with more on this exclusive interview with the president in puerto rico, geraldo rivera. geraldo, here's my main question for you, 15,000 people on the ground between the military and fema and only government workers.

food, water, medicine, supplies the navy was there. we got top military commanders from afghanistan and iraq. pretty unbelievable stuff. do you like my hairdo? and the attack by only one mayor got picked up by everybody and it wasn't true. what did the president say about that? >> he obviously is hurt by that. i have to add one melancholy note, sean. we heard minutes before we went on air that the official death toll has risen from 16 to 34. i would like people to understand is blame hurricane maria for those deaths. don't blame president trump. he really is trying. it's frustrating, the endeavor. the supply chain in puerto rico, its 1,000 miles away. it's a very difficult and logistically challenging

operation and you are dealing with a dysfunctional c governmet that really gave bad information to fema to begin with. the power plants are not damaged. it's the power lines that are down. i think we will get this done. the president going there was really important. >> sean: geraldo, i really proud of you. you were on the ground for seven or eight days? i promised i will match withndig whatever you've made -- i'm sorry, i was watching you, i am proud of you. i will match you a dollar for. samaritan purse, whatever you like. done. congratulations on the exclusive with the president. thank you for sharing it with u us. we appreciate it.in joining us now live on the ground in vegas, three friends of mine. kaya jones was on the stage one hour before with big and rich before the massacre. bob massi and conservative commentator niger innis.

>> i've been here 45 years. i'm so proud about the way the city has been coming together. ironically how that song was played and then we have to face this. this city has come together. do what they have to do, we have great leaders. people like you to come here and show how great it is in until this story.ik >> sean: people don't know, it is right here.at >> i've been in that casino 100r times. there's a pub called the foundation room. it's a fabulous casino and when i look at those windows, all it does is put a lump in your throat. this maniac. >> sean: you always try to putut yourself in this position -- niger, i've known your father before he passed away. god bless him. such a hero to me. f all those years, we did these dinners together. martin luther king martin luther king dinners. >> we were both in new york on september 11th. totally different atmosphere. i the unity is the same. the unity among us, here in

nevada. it is the same. i was going to applaud dina titus. a total contrast, the congresswoman of this district. total contrast from what hillary clinton and some of the other folks are doing. good move on her part to be responsible and a real leader. >> sean: your children are in the hospital, hanging onto life. on your knees crying and praying that they will survive this thing.ou you see what might have been --t you are on stage watching this. it just breaks your heart. >> it's heartbreaking. look behind us. there is a gate that's been broken because people were i trying to get out.ok i mean, it was mayhem. complete mayhem. >> i was talking to this police officer. broken window and blood. and up here where there are these big reservoirs, this gentleman -- they're actually

bullet holes. trying to blow things up.. that's how bad it was. >> sean: you have not slept. you are having trouble dealing with this. >> i am. in waves. guilt, sadness, anger. this is my hometown. we knew an attack was imminent. they had made it abundantly clear eventually something is going to happen. we have to now come together, do not allow this to affect us. 3800 plus law enforcement is working on the ground. this is a time where we have to be so thankful for our first responders. >> sean: i can't believe, niger. it is like this guy is a ghost. this was premeditated. >> absolutely. it was planned. no, no, no. this guy had been thinking abou. doing this for a long time and look, i don't want to add to the

speculation in the social media conspiracy theories but i do not believe this was spontaneous. this was planned for a long time. i was just talking to somebody -- there is a church behind us. a christian church. i don't think the target that he had planned, the time he had planned to do this is an accident. this was a purposeful attack. >> those rooms get sold out. they were all sold out. weeks in advance. to get that exact vantage point? come on. >> this guy had to visit the place many times -- you can request a suite. i've got to believe he requested that suite. speculation. sean, it is right -- god forbid it's a perfect vantage point to accomplish what you did.an this is irrelevant what i'm going to say but i always say to myself with these rooms comped? was he a gambler? >> sean: big gamblers get their rooms comped. >> i'm not saying mandalay bay did -- i'm just saying, these come to my mind.

was this a comped room because he was an gambler? >> sean: you are an attorney. you've seen people lost a lot of money. >> and made a lot of money.l >> sean: is this a normal reaction? >> of course not. 47 guns in three locations. >> 28 in his room. >> 20 in his room. >> sean, you wrote a wonderful book. "deliver us from evil. all the speculation, he was mentally ill -- this is evil. an attack on good, innocent people. >> innocent people. >> we saw a lot of good that night with first responders. >> sean: this is vegas right here. three great people. we are praying for your city.. >> god bless you. >> sean: thank you. that's all the time we have left. as always, thank you for being with us. we will not be like the
