♪ ♪ >> emily: fox news alert, right now the fbi is searching the florida home of brian laundrie after executing a search warrant and declaring the area a crime scene. approximately 20 agents have been in and out of the house for the last two hours. at one point his parents were removed from the home. they have since been let back inside. 23-year-old laundrie was named a person of interest in the disappearance of his girlfriend, gabby petito. authorities have been coming through a nature reserve in florida over the weekend looking for him, but now we are hearing
9:01 am
that search has been called off as authorities discovered a body near at grand teton national park yesterday consistent with gabby's description. this is "outnumbered, i'm emily compagno. here today, mica hosts harris faulkner and kayleigh mcenany. "new york post" colonist and fox news contributor, miranda devine, and in the center seat for the first time we welcome mike rowe, ceo of mike rowe works. he's also the executive producer and narrator of the new show, "how america works," which premieres tonight on fox business, and we are excited to get into it a little bit later in the show, mike. we are awaiting official confirmation that the body found near grand teton national park in wyoming is indeed gabby. an autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow and that should reveal the cause of death. petito and laundrie set off on a cross-country road trip back in july, but only brian came back. laundrie's family say they haven't seen him since last tuesday and now authorities in
9:02 am
florida are being criticized for letting him slip away without being questioned. and the parents are in their heightened scrutiny, as well. mike, what are your top line thoughts about this unfolding saga? >> mike: not much new to say. it's obviously terrible, your heart goes out to the parents, and to gabby, of course. i am struck by the way the van was discovered, of all things. social media, youtube, facebook, it's always a topic of conversation nowadays. the idea that she was ultimately discovered by someone who was using this tool strikes me is really interesting, not just in the way we work but in the way the whole world works. suddenly this thing is a part of our life now. to think that without a youtuber the family could have had zero closure moving forward. it's really pretty incredible how crimes get solved, and i think this will ultimately get solved.
9:03 am
>> emily: we hope so. and, miranda, to mike's point, this cross-section of platforms here, that is part of the argument that the local authorities there in florida are making, which is they say, "look, we didn't have the authority, we didn't have anything to go on. people are blaming us for letting him slip under her fingertips, but at the time we did not have the jurisdiction to encroach on what would have been a federal crime." and there was nothing of value, they say, that could have led them to pursue him in the beginning when he was physically present. >> miranda: that's right, emily. i think it is quite notable that the parents, when they thanked law enforcement today, did not think the fbi. they sank the local law enforcement that's been with them every step of the way. i think there's been some pretty valid criticism made of the fbi, that they managed to send a whole lot of undercover agents to that "justice for
9:04 am
january 6th" rally in washington, d.c., and they seemed to be more law enforcement and more journalists than there were protesters, and yet they didn't keep brian laundrie's house under surveillance. they allowed him to slip out. i mean, that is just extraordinary, that a house where you know the prime suspect and his family are living is not under 24/7 watch. i think there will be a lot of questions asked about that, and again, about the fbi's role. there are so many overlapping jurisdictions in this case, and very difficult for anyone to really figure out who is in charge. if gabby had been alive, that was valuable time. >> emily: that's exactly right. we will get to that media angle a little bit later in the show. harris, last hour you had a bunch of consecutive phenomenal interviews, as this is all sort of developing. what are your takeaways? >> harris: first of all, thank you for tuning into that. i was a spectator, too.
9:05 am
i felt it. we are getting so many details from our reporters, charles watson and laura ingle, from the scenes of both those places outside the laundrie home and wyoming where the body is found, believed to be that of gabby's. one of the things that sticks out, and i'm really curious to know about this, how do you take a piece of a crime scene away from a scene? i agree with what miranda was just saying. we didn't know everything at the time, but what we did know was that their key person of interest lived at that home, and that gabby petito had been staying at that home, too. if for no other reason than to just go inside with a search warrant, compelling argument to a judge, get inside the house, and say, "i want to see the last place she was." if that was the only reason to go in there, you didn't even really have to talk to them. but not to surveilled that resident seems like derelict of duty to me. he didn't slip away, he drove away. he didn't have to slip away. you are watching him. my next question, and you both are of legal mind, you and
9:06 am
kayleigh, on this. if there is not a reason to look at the home on the inside, isn't there always a free reason to look at the home on the outside? you don't need a warrant to watch somebody's house. my neighbors can tell you what i'm wearing in the yard. [laughter] whether i want them to or not! right? you just want to know, maybe there is something they are up to that's for good. i have that in my heart. i still want to hold that out. maybe to handle it this way, law enforcement and the fbi -- and i'm not hearing any cops under the bus, because they really didn't have federal jurisdiction here, so it was the fbi doing? today have something good that was going on that they were going to reveal at the end, like angelo lansbury vintage show? was it "murder she wrote?" what was it? or did they simply not do their jobs? >> emily: and the warrants, obviously the required specificity and particularity about something that you expect to be seen. so if you don't even have a body, in a way, we know more from the outside looking in then
9:07 am
legally -- >> harris: but they can go to the last place she laid her head before they went on that -- i want to see what her footprint looked like where she was standing. >> emily: and this on the heels, too, the fbi has been under heightened scrutiny for the larry nassar investigation. today's been a national egg on their face, with all due respect to those agents working day in and day out with honor, but it's a little difficult to have this come as round two and say, we want to know what transpired he towith transparency with going n behind those doors. >> kayleigh: a lot has happened since friday. i sat on the couch with both of you and talked about the double murder that was in the area, six days after that video. that maybe there was a link there. we talked about innocent until proven guilty, that always stands. nevertheless, there are so many peculiarities with the behavior of brian laundrie. the disappearance, going on a hike as your fiance is missing, think about that. and there was a note apparently found on his mustang at the
9:08 am
scene of that hike. what is on that note? and with the answer to that. again, not to read too much into this, but "the new york post" reporting that in a video he is seen sitting and reading a book on august 19th called "annihilation," the text about four women who go to area x, three of whom go missing. again, can't take too much from that, but it's a really interesting tie-in. the body that was found last night, i was sitting at dinner with my mom and my little baby and she talked about the love a mom has for her child. and about sleep gabby's mom, her whole family but her mom in particular, the pain she's gone through. the dad posting this beautiful image of gabby in front of rainbow angel wings, and a rainbow at the scene of wyoming where her body was found. the rainbow symbolizing god's achievement over all human wickedness. gosh, we are praying for her family. >> emily: mike, on that note, kayleigh talks about the pain and suffering of her parents, as well, but the nation is really
9:09 am
in pain and suffering, as well, greeting with his family. people are calling gabby america's daughter, and you have your finger on the pulse of this country. so often you work alongside ordinary americans who represent all of us. what do you make of this sort of collective mourning on the grief this country is undergoing right now for gabby petito? >> mike: it's hard to articulate it in terms of mourning. but the thing that struck me, as you guys were talking just now, all of this feels like just one more giant unanswered thing, where reasonable americans sit back and are asked to somehow make sense of the decisions that are being made. and to harris' point, it's not about throwing anybody under the bus. i don't have a crystal ball and i don't know what the fbi's thinking, either. but when you look at this in the totality of all the other things currently going on that make americans go, "are you kidding me?"
9:10 am
why doesn't anything feel like it is adding up? that is what strikes me. it's one more thing where people shake their head and say, "i give up. what's going on here?" >> emily: that's exactly right. moving on, a major crisis at the border, while more than 12,000 migrants packed under a texas bridge, both president biden and vice president harris are missing in action as usual. that's next. he's a good musical from liberty mutual! nothing rhymes with liberty mutual. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ i brought in ensure max protein, with thirty grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks!

9:15 am
border officials are overwhelmed. agents on horseback were struggling to turn away the surge of people crossing the rio grande. you might imagine president biden would be working overtime to deal with this catastrophe, and the magnitude and the scope and reach it has all over the country. but he, in fact, spent his weekend at his home in delaware taking a leisurely bike rides and hanging out at the beach. it's not just him showing no sense of urgency. vice president kamala harris was at their alma mater, howard university, this weekend to do that coin toss at a football game. despite their inaction on the actual crises, plural, going on, none of them are going away. particularly this porta situation. even former homeland security secretary jeh johnson says president biden needs to take it seriously. >> we have to get control of our borders. 200,000 a month is a lot of people. the dhs just released the numbers for august.
9:16 am
it's 200,000. that is typically a month or it is very low. those kinds of numbers and the images you just showed your audience sap and overwhelm the ability of dhs and border patrol, i.c.e., to cope with the incoming. it saps the communities on the border, the charities. we have to be something to enhance enforcement. >> harris: i want to hold out the best of thoughts that people are doing things for other reasons. maybe at the beach house of the president there is some sort of situation room where they've mapped it all out and are going to solve the border crisis. your thoughts? >> mike: i'm sure you are right. [laughter] everybody deserves a vacation. you take a vacation when you want. i would hope, i would think somebody would point out the optics. it is too easy a target, frankly, to criticize. i want to go back to the theme of the first block.
9:17 am
which, for me anyway, was: what's going on? americans are puzzled when they look around and see these things happening before them that are seemingly inexplicable. the coin toss is a pretty great metaphor, right? "maybe we will enforce the walls, maybe we won't." >> harris: wow. >> mike: to me, speaking personally, when you have the whole border conversation, and the whole migration debacle, and his humanitarian crisis, they are all separate conversations. then they are all under this rubric, this larger question, which i think is, do you enforce -- what happens to a country that doesn't enforce the laws they have on the books? what happens? it leaves reasonable, normal people to start feeling really profoundly disconnected from their government. if you have a law and you willfully ignore it, the unintended consequences of doing
9:18 am
that over time are exponential, and it's one more brick in the wall of this ambiguity and uncertainty that so many people are feeling. why? and there's just no good answer. >> harris: miranda? >> miranda: look, the fact is we have to be honest. the border is wide open and that is by design. jill biden came in on the very first day of his presidency, unwound all this-era protections, and since then he started this fire, he has pretended it isn't happening, he ignored it, he soaping the media ignores it. unfortunately with the disaster under the bridge in del rio, you've got 15,000 mostly haitian immigrants who are living, as he said, in squalid conditions. not enough food, not enough water. it's humanitarian catastrophe. so they had to come in with plan b and pretend they were doing something. they lied to the american people and they said they were going to ship all these people back,
9:19 am
deport them back to haiti. most of them have been living in chile or brazil for the last five years, but they are not shipping them back. they sent back yesterday 327 haitians, single males. the family groups, the rest of them, they've been shipped out, 3,000 of them, to the rest of america. and most of those people will stay and disappear into the community. >> harris: you know, i do want to ask this question, emily, because there are real reasons -- asylum -- for people to be allowed to stay in this nation. and their president was assassinated just a few weeks ago, and we knew this summary that nation was devolving very quickly. those are legitimately refugees. but because biden has left the border open, some of them might be able to apply, right? but because he has left the border open, as you heard jeh johnson, former secretary of homeland under obama, say, well, 200,000 are a lot.
9:20 am
look how hot it is. this is usually not the month they come in. they have to deal with everything else on top of this. if there are people that should be allowed to stay -- and i'm not saying all 15,000 of them under the bridge are -- but they have a right to a play at that point. we can't even take the application. >> emily: of course not, and our system is already so overwhelmed that the waiting list for legitimate asylum claims are over a year. we are absolutely overburdened, and something needs to change. clearly, however, at the direction of this administration, it doesn't seem like the border closing would be among the options that they are entertaining. i have to point out, as well, just to provide a little more color of the landscape for viewers, number one, over half of those over 300 haitians deported were under the age of five chain. i believe -- i would even conjecture because i can't remember off the top of my head, but the department of homeland security estimates that 5-8 flights per day will start appearing in combination with a bump of 400 border agents being
9:21 am
put down to the boarded. now, remember, after president biden himself said, "give me a couple days, man," when people said abolish i.c.e., when people said abolish homeland security and border protection. all of the sudden we are bumping up resources to an area that this president was very committed to depleting resources from. and final click point, as well, the governor, greg abbott, wrote a letter today pleading to president biden to declare the state of texas in a full state of emergency because of the burden on the local and state resources as well as federal. >> harris: they could have done that six month ago. i mean, this is a flip of the switch from the trump policies. as mike and randy have been pointing out, it makes you feeln america like nothing works. you flip the switch and they literally could have declared a state of emergency in many states along the border the minute the switch was flipped. >> kayleigh: that's right, and a flood of migrants came in. meanwhile, we have a and i a

problem coming missing in action, or should i say m.i.i. missing in inaction. they say you can't do that. and where the journalists? they've done amazing work for fox news. where the journalists? they are m.i.i. >> harris: some of us are trying to ask the questions that we are deemed annoying. i'm used to it.

sinister was going to happen on saturday. i'm sure it's a maximum let down. what about the booster debacle on friday? what about the righteous drone strike, the 14,000 immigrants stranded under a bridge in squalid conditions and more of the border? the list goes on of things that we want to hear about and that we want to have covered. yet, for all of the momentum leading up to saturday, and then saturday, and now nothing, who is at a loss of those americans watching that, led to believe something else is happening other than the truth? to your point, other than our reporters who are reporting the truth on those issues that people care about? but there's not going to be any changes until there is accountability. the same faces on the network, despite conflicts of interest and more. >> harris: oh, that i mention? chris cuomo? i'm sorry. all of it was alleged, but he was giving his brother advice. he said he was sorry. [laughter] anyway, mike rowe, i had the question of whether or not this is not a make-good for what
9:44 am
failed on january 6th among the communications, between all people in law enforcement and other places that needed respond. this is over calculation of how much would be needed. always looking for's underlining that it was some sort of practice for them. but there was much more of a narrative going on then people just trying to respond differently in the moment. >> mike: i think so. we kind of writer own narratives and then we watch the new station we think is most likely to confirm our narrative. then we get that little dopamine rush when we see people agreeing with us. it all feels very, very good. for me, sitting here watching this and listening to you guys, your job is, in the news business, as i understand it, to both inform and bear witness. and the compliment i would like to pay you, we have to choose between the two -- and you shouldn't have to -- but it's better to bear witness, because you can't argue with the photos
9:45 am
over the top of that bridge, and you can't argue with the photo of the rally that wasn't. if your camera's weren't there, what with the story be? how would it get processed? if the cameras weren't there when the plane took off, what would the stories be? it seems to me that bearing witness is a big, big deal. and then choosing, affirmatively choosing what you are going to point your camera toward, that is the essence of coverage, that's the reason i'm here today. we still get to choose. and thank god your cameras are there and pointed in the right direction. it's important. >> harris: miranda is also covering things. she is a terrific writer. mike, thank you for all your words.
9:46 am
you have a lot of talented journalists here at fox news, we are very blessed. miranda, you are when he was part of our team. i'm curious to get your take on the reality people might be missing in all of this as they focus all of those resources on saturday. we need a lot of resources elsewhere. >> miranda: i think the overreaction by the media and law enforcement to it was really a small and peaceful and completely legitimate rally, it just shows it's part of this demonization, using the january 6th capitol riots to smear all republicans and all trump supporters. there are people locked in a d.c. jail, they've been there for months without trial. some of them, and they admits no one has been charged with insurrection and no one will be. this is a complete overreaction and what is happening in that
9:47 am
d.c. jail is cruel and inhumane, and it goes against all of the basics of fair justice in this country. these people are being placed in solitary confinement. they are going mad. and they are not murderers. murderers i let on the street. rikers island was pretty much empty during the pandemic, and those people are still on the street, and yet the january 6th protesters are being treated worse than the worst criminals. and all that protest on saturday was doing was saying that, and nancy pelosi and all her theatrics are trying to make out that they are the worst terrorists in the country, and that january 6th was worse than 9/11. that's an insult. >> harris: kayleigh, real quickly, because you obviously were in the white house at that time, and you and i have talked about this, we had a one-on-one before he started... to you started with us here at fox. there is no misunderstanding that people died and were at
9:48 am
that day pay but we can't go after the criminals without indicting everybody. and that is what i hear miranda getting at. >> kayleigh: absolutely, and what she is saying is so important. there has to be justice brought. we hold the officer in our hearts. ashley babbitt, as well. that being said, as even elizabeth warren has said, the deplorable conditions that every day americans are being put in and treated as, it's uncalled for. and i pray elizabeth warren, who is on the left, for having the voice to speak on this. >> harris: we will move on. let's put mike rowe up on the screen. he's about to be bragdon! mike rowe is going to tell us all about his brand-new book, or his brand-new -- excuse me, i've given you a book and a show.
