9:00 am
>> emily: this is "outnumbered." hello, and emily compagno here is my coasts, kayleigh mcenany and harris faulkner. also joining us today, morgan ortagus and jimmy failla. breaking needed elements and they deadly uvalde school shooting. the safety director testifying short time ago that law enforcement had enough law enforcement officers on the scene to have stopped the gunman 3 minutes after he entered the building, and calling the
9:01 am
law enforcement response "an abject failure." the sending you details, as we get the first chilling images from inside the school that day. the surveillance photo you're looking at shows cops with rifles and ballistic shields in the hallway, but they waited another hour to storm the classroom. this photo was taken at the same time, but now you see it is a different angle and it also highlights that officers were ready to go in, but didn't. at the end of those 77 minutes, 19 students, including the daughter of one of the officers stationed there in the hallway, and two teachers, where dead or dying. others sustained serious physical injuries. the emotional and psychological harm will be lifelong for survivors and their families. it was the deadliest school shooting in texas history. jimmy, in stark contrast to those officers that waited over 90 minutes until he was actually
9:02 am
shot, when s.w.a.t. came, there was 4 minutes between him arriving and being shot dead. >> jimmy: there are so many overlapping timelines and variations in the story but the one common thread is, with children in the classroom, they waited to go in. there is no parent watching this, certainly a parent victimized by this horrible tragedy that is okay with them waiting to go in. that's a big issue here. two year law enforcement outright condemn this as a failure, it hurts me, because i know it hurts them, too. they didn't want this outcome and i say this all the time, i'm embarrassingly supportive of police. i would be a cop if they didn't have a thing called a background check, but the fact they do means i'm doing what i do, and i have a lot of empathy for everyone involved, but there is no world where we are okay with children not being the priority. when you hear something like, "well, we didn't know if it was an active shooter situation so we stood down for a minute," there is no world where there's kids in the classroom and a man with a gun and we have, like, a
9:03 am
sliding scale tolerance. there is no tolerance. they should have been there and it hurts me to say that. >> emily: just to be clear, the texas police entered the corridors of the school 90 minutes after the gunmen entered the building, and they entered the actual classroom 58 minutes later. and to jimmy's question about the children in there, we have now a transcript, quite damning for the police chief, that we have an officer that said, "if there's kids and they are, we need to go in there." another responded, "whoever is in charge will determine that." it goes on and we'll get more into that later, but you have a timeline of the children calling 911 themselves from inside the room. >> kayleigh: you have to wonder who the officer was. was it the one his daughter was in there? you can't imagine being a parent there. it is chilling. i read this online, the texas tribune expose with a lot of new details. "by noon the officers had rifles and at least one ballistic
9:04 am
shield, yet made no attempt to enter the classroom 50 minutes." that's the texas tribune. while we have this timeline, much of what was read out to us during one of those press conferences by law enforcement, it says this. 12:03 was the first call inside the classroom from a little girl, who whispers that she is in the room. she makes a second call at 12:10. the same girl saying multiple people are dead. she makes a third call at 12:13. she called again. the same little girl makes a fourth call at 12:16 and says eight or nine students are still alive. imagine this being a little girl. he called one time, two times, three times, four times, and the initial call he made the first 911 call, they call that 12:36. at 12:43 she says, "please send the police now." imagine being that little girl brave enough to pick up the phone and make the call, four times, "please come."
9:05 am
it is a damning timeline and it's catastrophic. >> emily: the investigation is not over but at the same time, given what we know now, the public is demanding answers and especially the family of those victims. >> harris: we will have to wait for all of this to come out and it won't be easy. the drip-drip. there will be stories that coordinate, crossing timeline, we now know, because 58 minutes is an eternity, so we know we have videos of parents being held on the perimeter, some of them with police acting against them, reports of pepper spray, and the cuffing of parents with the plastic strip. one mom who managed to get away makes it to the school and gets her kids out. there was a lot transpiring, potentially, that will overlap that timeline. but two words really stood out to me from your set up to this, and it was "death." "dying."
9:06 am
the death part, we know. are the people who could have been saved, the dying? listening to that child and what you just recounted, too, kayleigh, there is another word that stands out, and that's "bravery." we are the home of the brave. where was the bravery of these men and women standing outside with uniforms? you go to towards the gunshots.you do. if you aren't brave, sit down and let somebody go who is. >> emily: that's right. morgan, they were officers that absolutely acted heroically. what we are starting to learn from the drip-drip, as harris mentioned, is the bureaucratic constraints that some fell under. however, officers who got to the scene immediately evacuated children and other classrooms when other officers failed to do so. there were officers fighting to go into the classroom. we had the transcript and testimony and witness reports of such. absolutely, including the bravery of especially that s.w.a.t. team, the border patrol s.w.a.t. that resulted in the
9:07 am
death of that shooter. while there is a measurable tragedy, there is also immeasurable heroism, albeit perhaps disproportionate from that day, morgan. >> morgan: the number that keeps ringing in my ears is when you ladies were talking about at least 50 minutes that the parents stood there. i just think about it, as a parent, standing there for 50 minutes or 58 minutes or whatever the timeline ultimately ends up being, hearing the gunshots and knowing that your child is in there. i can't think of anything worse. while we have some amazing local reporting going on in texas that's getting this out, the drip-drip that harris is reverting to also has to be incredibly psychologically damaging for these parents, because every other day you are getting confirmed your worst fears possible, that the people that were supposed to protect your children didn't. that's why i think we need to keep pushing while the local reporting -- while it's fantastic, we have to push for s of this never happens again.
9:08 am
again, i don't want to second guess until he get that full report, but you think about flash grenades, teargas, something, anything to have disabled the shooter instead of it taking almost a full hour to disable the shooter. that's the accountability i'd like to see. when are we going to get the full encumbrance of report? >> harris: where is the line, "my life for yours?" i'm not going to proselytize, because that's not my role. the lord hasn't called me to do that. but i am a witness by trade, and where is that person? there is always one, and disaster. hurricanes, tornadoes. that person who says, my life for yours, especially for a little one. if they were arguing about bureaucracy, to me, that is not an argument. shoot me in the back as i go rescue people. where is that person? maybe they were there in droves and we don't know yet.
9:09 am
maybe that's the drip-drip. i wish it would come out faster. >> kayleigh: the one officer showed up because he got a call from his wife, one of the teachers, and he was turned away. he arrived in the hallway and according to the reporting i was reading in the texas tribune, he was turned away. >> emily: aptly heartbreaking. in the charging papers for law enforcement, it specifically says if you're not prepared to give your life or others that perhaps this is not the right calling for you. i think unfortunately despite or no matter how much training there is and how much logistics and factors and assets in the school districts that we have, sometimes you can't test the measure of a human until that moment. coming up, heightened security and protests at the supreme court as we await the justice's decisions on a number of high-profile cases. more on that next. ♪ ♪ cash, call newday usa. why? home values are at all-time highs. use your va benefit now

9:14 am
♪ ♪ >> harris: the nation's highest court is under heightened security. barricades are going up around the u.s. supreme court building as the justices are expected to hand down a series of blockbuster decisions within days. on the docket, gun rights in new york, a challenge for president trump to remain in mexico policy, the religious liberty case of a high school football coach, joe kennedy. we know them well. he was fired for kneeling in prayer on the field. all eyes are on the case of the decision that would overturn the nationwide right to abortion. the justices are weighing these cases after weeks of threats and hostility since the leak of the draft opinion. illegal protesting outside the homes of conservative justices, and the arrest of a man for planning to assassinate justice brett kavanaugh. all of it pushing congress to
9:15 am
tighten the security for all the justices and their families. the nation has been on edge after violent attacks on pro-life groups and churches. i don't know how much you know about that group, jane's revenge, revenge and their name, has issued to riot against the supreme court if it does overturn roe v. wade. morgan ortagus, we cannot tolerate injustice and lack of law and order in this country. it'll be beyond chaotic. >> morgan: to me, what i'm fearful of if this ruling does come out is that we see riots similar to what we saw in the summer of 2020, especially when -- and you all have reported on this quite a bit at "outnumbered," about the crime rates rising in democrat cities around the country. while i think d.c. itself has gotten better at protecting and hardening buildings, the supreme court has been hard and for weeks and that's due to threats against the justices.
9:16 am
you see people showing up at amy coney barrett's home with fake blood and dolls and their reporting is crazy. while i'm a little less concerned about d.c. because i think they are getting better, i'm concerned about what's happening around the country, especially in cities where they've defunded the police to some degree, lower budget, and crime is skyrocketing in these cities. >> harris: this particular administration, they have a habit of waiting until things explode before they take out a cup of water. the >> emily: that's right. we certainly had condemnation on behalf of this administration but dead silence from the president. it is so ironic to me that, and his continued silence, on day three of the january 6th hearings, if there was anything that was like this on the other side, if they would call it an insurrection, we knows these threats are actionable and real because someone was arrested near justice kavanaugh's house for attempted murder. we know this is not just made of smoke. this is actionable and real, and it is sad but necessary that the
9:17 am
security measures are going up around the supreme court and everywhere else. but what else do we need to know? even the op-ed points out that the irony of the crickets from the left and the crickets from the president while the rest of us know exactly what it is like, and no one more than justice kavanaugh and his family. >> harris: we know the age old adage, good men who do nothing cause harm. that's obviously a paraphrase they are. what about good men to say nothing? went by the president of the united states, and the fact that his silence is that complicity? we don't know. does that mean he condones what's happening? we don't know. >> jimmy: well, i'm going to say something, and i want to say to the dealers that it's controversial and anyone who has an issue with it can hit me up on twitter @kayleighmcenany. [laughter] when there is a double standard, there is no standard.
9:18 am
we know that already. my biggest frustration in this moment is not having an honest conversation. the reason people are so up in arms as they are being told that if roe v. wade gets repealed at the end of democracy. that's not true. it's the beginning of democracy because it goes back to the states for a vote. people do have an onus and where this goes. the bigoli is that women are under attack. women aren't under attack, babies are under attack and dying in stunning numbers. if you want to get into the statistics on abortion, that is where the kind of conflation of what abortion being repealed constitutes is bringing people to the precipice of real violence. people want to kill brett kavanaugh because they have been told that he wants to kill women. but he doesn't want that, that's not who brett kavanaugh is, okay? that's a bigger frustration i have, that people feel in this day and age like the only way to cut through the news cycle being omnipotent as it is --
9:19 am
that's where this conversation started. so god help us with where it's going. >> harris: look, if we want to talk about a war on women, remember where we were with this particular president and his incendiary comments when one of his own party, senator kyrsten sinema of arizona, and the ladies room, because they didn't agree with her point of view. right? and he said that is politics when you get followed in like that. >> jimmy: at politics when they do it. when the right does it, as emily said, it's an insurrection and violence. we all know the truth, but that's why they are in the position they are in. they have alienated so many objective people who are not hard-core partisans, they are just watching a real double standard play out. every right-wing person condemns the capitol, we just don't agree with the premise that we've never seen political violence of it, because we watched the whole summer of it in 2020. >> harris: can we talk about the opinion that's coming down, that draft that leaked?
9:20 am
if it turns out to be like the draft, what that would mean? because jimmy hit on something. it doesn't say that abortion across the board is outlawed. >> emily: i have read almost all 98 pages of the opinion. almost, i've got a few pages left, but i read the draft infill and it says there is a political process in place in this country whereby states were deciding on abortion, what it should be, legal or not legal. ruth bader ginsburg argued that the tides of democracy were flowing towards pro-abortion. i would disagree with her. that was her argument, and her qualm with roe is that it's up the political process taking place in the states. the opinion says any time we have found a constitutional right embedded in the 14th amendment that is not listed out in the first amendments, it has been embedded in history and tradition. but the roe v. wade opinion ignores the entire history of abortion in this country where it was illegal for 100 plus years. they admitted this right out of,
9:21 am
and we are here today, just to underscore your point, jimmy. i saw an associated press headline i can't get out of my head. one in five pregnancies now and in abortion. that's 20%. this comes after three years ago where we were at the lowest numbers of abortion since 1973. we are now at one in five. there is a change in this country that has happened. states will decide the best way forward. alabama and florida decide one way, new york and new jersey, people have free choice. that's what this is about. >> harris: if we want to talk about freedom of speech, people do have the right to protest but they do not have the right legally under federal law, emily, to intimidate, to threaten these judges and their families. they don't have that right. we can try to protect them. it would be better if we went after the people breaking the law. that way you could do both. just ahead, the liberal media now complaining that the reason vice president kamala harris is so unpopular is because of the "white male media." there's always a reason.

>> kayleigh: the liberal media has come up with a new reason for vice president kamala harris' unpopularity. the white male media. msnbc host joy reid said in a weekend interview, "most of the media is still white and male and their take on kamala harris becomes the take. it becomes conventional wisdom." apparently, regarding her own talks with the vice president, she adds, "i was able to kick off my heels and talk real. we need more conversations like
9:27 am
that." [laughter] her comments echo "new york times" reporting that kamala harris has complained that if she were any of her 48 predecessors, all of whom were white and male, coverage would be different. >> harris: well, why do i cover her the way that i cover her, steeped in facts and honesty and the fact that she hasn't been to the border when it's a crisis? and that she, you know, hired people to be in a casted film about space? that was one of her early things. i'm not white or male. by the way, i can talk with my shoes on. that sounds like the 1950s! what are we, barefoot and pregnant to be able to interview each other? [laughter] that crazy to me. i don't even know where that's coming from. if you look for a reason why you are not prepared for the occasion, it's not white or male. it's a black indian female in the mirror. >> kayleigh: apparently the problem, joy reid goes on to say, her personality is nothing showcased as they are looking at high gas prices and formula
9:28 am
shortages. if only we had that vice president personality. >> jimmy: so true. but that is typical of her, it is intellectually lazy and reductive. as though there is any race that we would be okay doing the job she's doing. she was the borders are at one point. she didn't even go to and on the border restaurants let alone the border. she shows no interest in the gig. they have change your title now, some other job, the kind of behavior you do any old people money. "i've got a new job now so you can't get mad at me for that old one." but that's -- if we are a bunch of racists for her poll numbers, what about the democrats who had her at 1% when she dropped out during the 2020 primaries before the voting started? you understand? dropping out before iowa is like throwing up on new year's eve before the ball drops. [laughter] >> harris: oh, my goodness. >> jimmy: sorry if that hit home for you. but it is. if we are the bad guys, what are the democrats, and joy reid's party who literally had her at 1%? she was pulling lower than my
9:29 am
milk when she dropped out. >> emily: that's the point of wisdom of the day national polling is what i was going to go to next, 28%. i was going to ask you, emily, are the other 72% of people just white and male? the better question is, what about the 90% of the democratic party that wasn't behind her from the get-go? >> emily: and remember where her lowest poll numbers originate from: the bay area, which she claims as her home. so the voters that know her best think the lowest of her. myself included, because i'm from the bay. to me, that belies the whole question about who knows who the best, those that dislike -- and i think that's when you bring her personality. we've been subjected to it for decades, empty promises and empty talking points, and a queer session of holding positions without giving results to the american people are the residents of california at the time. what i find so offensive personally is that just criticism or criticism rooted in
9:30 am
actual thoughtfulness and discussions about policy and performance and production are deemed racist. like we are the bad guys for daring to criticize someone who has failed at their position for decades. the only thing i disagree with in your lead-up, kayleigh, he said it's a new reason. but it's the same tired reason we've heard from the left all time. >> kayleigh: speaking for battling personality, morgan, the dnc slashing prices for a photo with her. [laughs] it started at $15,000 but failed to sell enough tickets and it's. the new fund-raiser is $5,000 for a photo. >> morgan: i'm going to offer this for more of a staffing perspective because you and i were both in the administration. when you look at it from a political perspective, you have to get out early and defined, whether it's a political campaign or the white house, you have to define who it is and what they stand for.
9:31 am
unfortunately she allowed herself through some gaffes and taking on tough policy issues, she allowed the media to define her early on. so she's had a lot of staff turnover as we have reported and talked about and maybe that is her own management problem that she has so much staff turnover, but when you allow the other side to define you, you always lose the political campaign. when you don't define yourself first. joy reid an interview said that she had taken on some impossible portfolio challenges. well, she's right. if i was her chief of staff and they handed me the border, i would say absolutely no way. that's not our policy portfolio. so i would take it back to a lot of problems of how she manages and run things. >> harris: i don't know if i completely agree with you on that, about the other side writing her script. she laughed for months when asked important questions. she laughed for months when no and asked her anything. she was the laughing vice president. when it was funny and when it was cute and when it wasn't.
9:32 am
it almost became who she was in those very important moments. she wrote her own script. we just took pictures to go with the script. >> jimmy: really quick, all i was going to say, she is first in line to the presidency. this is not a job where you get to pick and choose your battles. you don't get to decide what shows up on your desk one day per that's why no one buy that excuse. where they don't tell you about that meet and greet, it's $5,000 to get in but is $20,000 to get out. [laughter] >> kayleigh: you can't do a good job on difficult things. up next, when you think drug deal you think dark alleys but today children have access to a dark world of drugs right on their phone. it's a very scary thing, with just a tap of an emoji. ♪ ♪

9:40 am
interview on tiktok and with a chinese communist party was doing. so it was reported over two years ago from mike pompeo but i'm glad everybody else is catching up. >> harris: we like to catch at! emily? beating this formula is so tragic, 9 out of 10 pills the teenagers are buying illicitly off the internet and social media are fentanyl, counterfeit bills. the pattern is that these kids are using social media to buy pills, they are experimenting, and 9 out of 10 are fentanyl so they are dying. while experiment of drug use has plummeted since 2010, the overdose and the jets have skyrocketed because of fentanyl. now we know that these overdose deaths are the leading cause of death between 18-45. they have eclipsed suicide and car accidents. remember, in the past, the national campaign we have been part of that has aimed to stop both of those things and more, we need more now. seeing social media companies,
9:41 am
sure, but there needs to be a concerted effort by our law enforcement and his administration to nip the blood in the whatever you call that. and everything at the border, it needs a lot more than what we have seen as far as the administration. >> harris: i like to catch up. you pointed out pompeo. i'm thinking a former president trump who didn't have a lot of love for tiktok. >> kayleigh: he was very clear on the dangers, along with mike pompeo. they were a great team on that front. president trump was passing it on the border. the report on this points out that, as morgan said, operation lone star, one state, one operation alone, found 300 million lethal doses of fentanyl, almost enough to kill everyone in the country, and that is one state. number one cause of preventable death, as a troubling time for young people in this country. take your kids to church and teach them what's important.

monitor them. >> harris: monitor them. bring them close. make them give you eye contact. no phones at the table. i am such a shrew, apparently. [laughter] >> jimmy: but for good cause. i talked to my kid about this all the time. everybody knows i have one kid. lincoln failla. this he would never let us have two. [laughter] it is more incumbent upon parent now than it is in any other generation to really get aggressive with your kids about not doing drugs, because, to be clear -- this is where i think we are failing parents -- we keep reporting these as overdoses. there is a connotation to overdose. >> harris: that's a good point. >> jimmy: that you are doing drugs for 72 hours straight in your heart eventually stops. these are poisonings. they are taking a recreational amount of drugs, which is what is so heartbreaking about it. the connotation is that they must have been a junkie and it was a long time coming and they never stopped it. now, a lot of these people are first-time drug users and recreational drug users, but
9:43 am
they are dying instantaneously. you have to be involved here kids and this is the reason why, and in this generation more than ours. we have raised kids on an ipad. oftentimes it's a babysitter. if you want to do something around the house, you have a toddler, you hand them an ipad. and that creates another version of travel unsupervised. when we were kids we rode bikes but we didn't go too fire. i was 250 pounds, how far was i going to pedal? i was a big little kid! but a kid gets on the ipad and can go forever. that's the point, you have to be on top of kids. it's not the old days. great joke. >> harris: my mom used to talk about the value of sitting around a room staring at each other and being bored. she says, just fell in love with each of us. look into her eyes. look up from whatever. and i make my kids do that. i do. i've been put on a little smoky i did try and make it interesting. i'm kidding. coming up, disney's much

>> kayleigh: it's getting a little wild here. it seems disney-pixar's "lightyear" didn't get enough buzz over the weekend, fizzling at the box office. some critics say the movie may be a bit too woke. the "toy story" movie raked in a disappointing opening weekend considering it had been projected to bring in $70 million. so what went wrong? well, for starters, it was banned in several places because it features a same-sex kiss scene, leaving some conservatives to blame what they call the movie's woke agenda. morgan, i want to take my family to this movie and i chose not to because i am tired of -- i don't care what it is, any agenda. right or left, being pushed in my face. i just want to watch a movie about toys. i think there are millions of people out there who love the classics, like cinderella, toy story, nemo. >> harris: i love "the little
9:49 am
mermaid." >> emily: i >> morgan: i thinki still know all the words by heart. i read that in china and saudi arabia and at least one or two of the countries, disney edited that seen out that you're referring to. so it has been in some other countries. i think the problem is they didn't cast tim allen, from what i read. i didn't go see it. i don't know the cause of it, but i agree, everybody who wants a little bit of escapism, and we have reported on uvalde, crime, fentanyl, everything else. people just want to go to a movie without a political agenda. >> kayleigh: the movie you and i love, "top gun." it brought in 156 many dies because it's only gender was we love america and our military. >> emily: i think a large reason why it fizzled at the box office is people are busy seeing "top gun" 87 times like me. your point about the editing proves that this is just performative action to begin with. their arguments that they put that in, they are so woke, and they counter argument from the
9:50 am
percussive left that we want to see more. bottom line, the edit when the green color talks, so the box office clearly doesn't actually care about furthering whatever agenda they are purporting. >> kayleigh: but do they? this is what was interesting. town hall reported that disney had approved pixar to include it but in march, however, disney shifted its stance and gave pixar the green light, and it came about at the same time disney came out against the desantis law banning sexuality talk in kindergarten, and that backfired on them marvelously. their stocks went down. >> harris: that's the problem here. no your audience. you say you want to take your children, we want to take young children to these films, and remember what the predecessors were? the series of "toy story." that's where it came from, tim allen, you mentioned, so you totally get that. but if you're going to have to explain something on screen that you feel you are not ready yet
9:51 am
to explain to a 3-year-old or a 4-year-old, if it's part of the movie, it's part of the texture of the film, maybe even part of the story line. i haven't seen it. are you really wanting to do that? is that part of the moviegoing experience that you want to have with your young children? no your audience. disney is learning this over and over. >> kayleigh: a great kid movie came out, and the only thing my daughter walked away with was singing great songs. >> jimmy: i think we have the issue. if you take toy story and combined it with top gun, you got a movie. because tom cruise is a hunk so maybe people would see that. it didn't make sense. [laughter] have you ever talked to human being and felt the words come out the wrong way? this is the real issue, to harris' point. disney movies are always a form of escapism and they are geared to children. you've never been on your way to a disney movie as a child and said, "i can't wait to find out which political side they are
9:52 am
taking today." you just want to go to have fun, and that's why they are getting the blowback they are. no kids go to disney world to ride on "snow white and the seven genders." that's not a priority. they don't wait in line for "peter pansexual." they just want to ride the rides and that's a big issue. >> morgan: here's a perfect example of that. "the little mermaid" was based on the hans christian andersen story where every time she walked with her human feet it felt like shards of glass and it was incredible painful. that was amended, that children could digest it. they didn't have to watch a human walking on shards of glass. so the whole point is that you know your audience, and even let children learn and also be entertained in that way. >> jimmy: i think the lesson here for disney is at a bar from the movie "frozen." when it comes to identity politics. let it go. hey, girl, look at that assist!
