tell your doctor if your crohn's disease symptoms... develop or worsen. serious allergic reactions may occur. watch me. ask your rheumatologist about cosentyx. >> hello, everyone. this is "outnumbered." i'm emily compagno hosted with kayleigh mcenany and dr. marc siegel and marie harth. we begin with the death of four idaho students that has gripped the nation. we learn new and chilling

details about the case. the four teens were found stabbed to death early sunday morning in the house they shared. police have still not identified a suspect or a person of interest. they say all four returned home around 1:45 a.m. sunday after a night out with friends. kaylee and madison were captured on video outside a food truck. the footage could hold vital clues. we learned two other roommates were home at the time of the murders. investigators are speaking with the two students. police say they're potentially the key to this whole thing. meantime, the heart broken father of one of the teens revealed that his daughter's body showed that she tried to defend herself from her killer. and kaylee's sister warned other students on instagram, nobody is in custody and no one is safe. julie, this whole story, so

tragic. the more we learn raises more questions as well. i have to set the scene a little bit. i went to college nearby there. we would visit the university of idaho often because it's just across the border from washington stated. 12,000 is the college population. they just had their largest incoming freshman class of all time in 2022. now the campus is a ghost town with most students having fled home after this horrible tragedy. >> first of all, sorority life is huge. sorority and fraternity life is huge. >> it's a party town. a lot of these homes have parties. it's nothing new. every fraternity house has a party. the timeline is really scary. first of all, one of the teen's father said they spoke on the phone at midnight. she was perfectly fine. now in that video, you see two

of the girls at a food truck at 1:45 a.m. getting pasta. they had a one-mile walk home. but in that video, this is where i think the investigators will find answers. there were a couple of guys that were in the area kind of off in the distance silently following them but they didn't get video of them on the walk home. it's interesting to note that seems like the edged object, the weapon was a knife and the same knife was used in all of the murders. the question is one or two people involved. that leans to possibly most likely the murder weapon likely was used by one person. there could been an accomplice. if there's one knife, the same knife was the knife that was used for all four murders likely one knife is what the coroner is saying in his investigation. it seems that the knife wounds were down by the same weapon. now it's a question of how in the world did they get in. the father says there's a combination on the lock in the

front. maybe they got around the side, the sliding glass door was open. it's concerning. i absolutely think the school should lock down until they catch whomever did this >> so many unanswered questions. kayleigh, three victims are from a small community. this town to your point, it's a college town. it's small. it's close knit. it was cold there on that night. there's a lot of sort of really tragic and heart breaking images coming out of the footage that we have. the blood dripping out of the side of the home. i can't imagine what the families are going through. to julie's points, there's a lot of complexities or haziness around the circumstances that we have yet to learn that perhaps are exacerbated because it's a college town. if you're out, you're having a beer and you get pasta at 2:00 a.m. and sleeping late, there's a lot of factors here that we don't yet know about for sure. but that might be in part contributing to the questions police have and to the fact that

are not any clear-cut answers how the person got in, why xyz. >> as one of the parents or multiple family members have said there's no room for speculation here. these kids were just kids trying to have a normal might on a college campus and then this happened. the speculation i think needs to go. as you do on this show often, it's important to talk about the victims. you've said their names many times. one of the moms that hosted the vigil, not a mom of one of the victims that knew the victims through her daughter said they were vibrant, wild, care-free and loving. the bright stars here on this earth are upstairs looking down on us now. every one of them are the most amazing kids i've ever met in my life. every account says these kids were just really, really great kids. obviously should have never happened to them. what one police officer said is the worst seen he's ever seen in his entire life. my question is your question

about this murder weapon. it raises a lot of questions, that it was one knife. makes you think, was there more than one person or likely one knife, they say. it's not confirmed yet. if it was one person, they had to be skilled at using a weapon. one of the fathers said my daughter was fighting back. if there's one weapon, one person, this narrows down that this had to be somebody that used the weapon. >> that's a great point. one person taking down four people? one was a boyfriend. it wasn't just girls. there was a guy there, too. i would have a hard time believing only one person was involved. that's my hunch. >> and i have to say, there's so many potential factors that can lead to a circumstance where people are compromised in some way. so as we sit and say, okay, four people on one, that seems clear. but there's many things that could compromise an individual.

one of the more horrifying attack stories i heard is a couple where the husband, they were being attacked. the husband was a firefighter and acrossfit instructor. he needed help from the wife. there's certain injuries that you sustained or you have one hand, the circumstances are just absolutely frightening. where you're fighting for your life. what does it say to you that the fbi has now deployed this elite unit, we're pooling resources, it expands the resources on the part of the state of idaho in to the federal connection, which means not only networking and connections but the caliber, the resources that idaho has, tapped in to the utmost elite and enumerable. >> it shows that they're concerned about an ongoing threat. at first the police said this had been targeted. they didn't think there was a threat to the community. now they're saying it's not true. the fbi can help with that across state lines action we

know where this university is located. this week has been so awful. college kids have a hard time right now. we've seen this tragedy at the university of virginia, my alma mater that has been racked by the killing of there three football players. college kids have a lot to cope with right now. this was a party school. a good school. but one where people went to have fun. to have it happen to these young people and especially if there's a wider threat at large, that is so scary for these kids that are still dealing with so much in their lives beyond this. they shouldn't have to deal -- at 20, they shouldn't have to wonder if there's a threat in their community. >> our hearts go out to that community. dr. siegel, i want your input on this specifically. the forensic pathologist commented and we'll get your thoughts on the other side. >> the other two roommates were there at the time of the attack? >> all the information that we have from our investigation is

that yes, they were. >> okay. they were unhurt? >> that is correct. blood is slippery. sometimes the perpetrator is cut by the slippage of the knife. some of the blood at the scene can belong to the perpetrator and dna will be able to evaluate that. >> so doctor, the relevant part is the second half. the blood could mix and we could i.d. the person through the blood. what should we look to learning from the crime scene? >> number 1, no better forensic pathologist than dr. michael bowden. blood is slippery. we may see some dna evidence of

one perpetrator or two. to julie's point, two is likely. someone had to hold them people down. dr. bowden said we could tell the time of death and if there was over a certain period of time. what i've written a lot about, the fight or flight response. you're there. this is happening to you. you freeze. that doesn't help the victims unfortunately. there's the escape mechanism. we wonder why they didn't try to run away or maybe one did and one was struggling. we'll tell a lot about the weapon, the time of death. they may be able to identify the perpetrator as a result. the witnesses are key. the other thing dr. bowden said, the police don't always reveal what they know. you know this. so they may know more than they're saying. i agree with the point that they should lock this place down. i've been there. this is god's country. you live near there. this is a beautiful place. a shock to have it interrupted like this. it needs to be closed down for now. >> absolutely. great conversation.

kayleigh, i appreciate your perspective, too. remembering the victims as four beautiful kids. our heart goes out to them and their families. coming up, the white house is accusing republicans of launching investigations to what they called long debunked hunter biden conspiracy theories. we're going to debunk that. stay with us. veteran homeowners: gas, groceries, everything's costing more. if you need cash, call newday. you can borrow up to 100% of your home's value. veterans get more at newday usa. life... doesn't stop for diabetes. be ready for every moment, with glucerna. it's the number one doctor recommended brand that is scientifically designed to help manage your blood sugar. live every moment. glucerna. first psoriasis, then psoriatic arthritis. even walking was tough. i had to do something. i started cosentyx®. cosentyx can help you move, look, and feel better...

>> house republicans are gearing up and ready to hit the ground running and subpoena hunter biden when they take control of the house in january. they vowed yesterday to dig deep into the biden family business dealings and the white house is denouncing the claim in a statement that reads in part, congressional republicans top priority is to go after president biden with politically motivated attacks chocked full

of conspiracy theories. president biden is not going to let these political attacks distract him from focusing on americans' priorities. we hope congressional republicans will join us in tackling them instead of wasting time and resources on political revenge. incoming house oversight committee chairman james comer is not buying that. >> there's no plan to subpoena joe biden. there are plans to subpoena hunter biden. >> what does that timeline look like? >> you know, if i were hunter biden, pam, i would want to come before my committee and prove my innocence. i said some things today that should be concerning to hunter biden. >> why then would you not subpoena joe biden if -- >> it's complicated to subpoena a president of the united states. >> it has been done -- >> it has been done and the democrats sent out subpoenas like junk mail. that's why it's hard to get people to come in. >> emily, addressing the white house statement, james comer and

jim have said that they want this to be focused on the policy nexus too, how this ties in to policy decisions. i do want to play a sound bite from james comer here. it's about china and liquefied natural gas and how there could be a policy link between the business dealings. >> at a time when americans are suffering from high energy prices because of this administration's terrible energy policy, we find evidence that hunter biden and joe biden were involved in a scheme to try to get china to buy liquefied natural gas and from a whistle-blower to try to get their foot in the door with china starting to purchase an interest in natural gas drillers. people are in outrage over china buying farmland in the dakotas. what about china starting to buy in to our american energy industry at a time when we have

an energy crisis because of the bad policies of the biden administration? >> so anyone that says there's no evidence of this or that, we haven't heard from the 14 whistle-blowers, one of which he just mentioned. >> this is in every american's best interest to learn more about this, to get answers to this. and if you would supplant any name except hunter biden or i should say except for the last name of biden, i argue the entire democrat party would be massively invested and interested in learning more. it's a shame to me that the mainstream media, the apologist media has covered up for the interests, the curiosity and the potential for this conflict of interest as we're hearing these pieces of evidence that are far more than conjecture. they're real. that lends credence to the argument that our president, our white house and likely this administration and with it our security has been compromised. we know that the president just this week said he's pledged to work with republicans on issues of interest to the american people that they care about. this is one of them. secretary pompeo said this week

that china is in the gates. we know this. in fact, the democrats have said this at large. members of the house of congress have been actually compromised in that way. so i hope moving forward that the coverage of this is not about a hysterical gop and that these headlines do not twist the concept of this investigation to make it all about hunter biden's addictions and the issues he's facing. it's far bigger than him. it's up to the gop and to the democrat party to support them in pursuing these investigations as fully as possible. >> marie, i know democrats are saying this is about hunter biden. it's going after the president's son. i've heard the argues. there's so much more than just hunter biden. there's the southern border, afghanistan, the letter that came out from the doj, the fbi and the false letter from 50 officials calling hunter russian

disinformation. there's something there in important for democrats to look into as well. >> here's what is interesting. republicans took control of the house by a slim majority. in their first press conference, they didn't talk about inflation, they didn't come out with a plan nor the southern border. they didn't talk about how they're doing to fight crime. they talked about hunter biden. they tried to explain why it was bigger when you're explaining you're losing in politics, all that complication and they had their charts. they've said they're focused on investigations. the voters want them to be focused on -- you said you were going to fix inflation and the southern border. where are those plans? quite frankly, hunter biden clearly has made some mistakes in his life. there's no evidence that president joe biden has been engaged in any wrongdoing. if republicans want to say to the american people for the two years we're interested mostly in investigating the administration and not in actually governing, as a democrat, i will run against that every day and twice on sundays. >> the ball has moved from this

is russian disinformation to biden never spoke about his son's business dealing to there's no wrong doing. there's an evolution. democrats response with january 6 we can walk and chew gum. i think kevin mccarthy said he wants to make sure the 87,000 irs agents don't come. 's spoken to him. he does have plans to engage on policy. to borrow a line from the democrats, we can walk and chew gum too. >> and all this issues are on the table. democrats should want to know about it, too. the second thing that has been bothering me a long time is the issue of ukraine. because we're rooting for ukraine so much, are we therefore going to forget the fact that then vice president biden withheld or said he was withholding $1 billion unless a

federal prosecutor in ukraine was tanked. now they have come out and said, that had nothing to do with hunter biden. here's the thing, kayleigh. there's so many corrupt prosecutors in ukraine and for sure hunter biden was doing business in ukraine. what was the vice president doing involved in that? >> yeah, it's a great question. i want to get this in from cnn. this is just a snapshot in to what the biden administration is doing. i'm sure they focused on hunter biden, too. interesting. it says more than four months ago before voters and republicans controlled the house, top white house hand department of homeland security officials huddled in the roosevelt room to prepare for this very scenario. sitting around the large table -- the interesting part -- white house lawyers probed senior dhs officials about their preparation for the wide ranging republican oversight that they had begun to anticipate. plans to impeach mayorkas, et cetera. so they called dhs officials in and i've read this in a few places. they're a little worried about the southern border investigation. they're preparing for it four

months in advance. >> that sound bite that we ran at the beginning, james comer, he discussed the fact that they're not subpoenaing the president of the united states. what i want to understand why wasn't he subpoenaed during the election. yes, it's hard to subpoena a sitting president. but we knew and the republicans knew and had evidence of the president's involvement in his sons dealings with russian and china when he ran for president. why didn't we subpoena him then? that's what i don't understand. there's plenty of evidence that shows not only was hunter biden's laptop and all of that sort of brushed under the rug, tucked in the same corner as hillary clinton's e-mails. but i just think at this point it's a little too little too late. i guarantee you we don't get answers during this administration. it was blocked. it was hidden. it was dusted under the rug. >> that's what democrats did. >> do i have time to make a quick point in response to your comments, marie?

it's a laughable notion to argue that the republicans have not been absolutely articulate and firm and surgical frankly with exactly how they would combat inflation, the rise in crime, securing the southern border. >> they gave you one press conference -- >> there's more. >> restoring title 42 and a whole host of other things. the reason they held the press conference is because the mainstream media has never given them a part to discuss it. when you mentioned explaining, nobody has given them the moment to hear why it's so important to the american people, which includes security from china. those are the things -- >> well-side. press conference one of many. i went down the list with steve scalise. are you investigating the border? yep. education? yes. a lot more press conferences to come. americans still struggling and the federal reserves advice,

don't give employees raises. that's next. ♪

>> welcome back. americans are facing record interest rates, soaring everyday prices and plunging retirement savings. now employers have been advised to stop giving pay raises to bring down inflation. >> inflation is very high. something that people are reminded of every day when they see the prices of things that they buy go up. wages have been rising more quickly than they have in decades, much faster than productivity growth. wage growth has been a contributing factor to inflation, especially in the service sector. so it is important to get the labor market in better balance to bring future wage growth down to a more sustainable level that

will assist in moving overall inflation lower. >> wow. so wage growth is the problem. i get from a macro standpoint the fed is trying to manage the problem. it's a devastating assessments. how about the 4.8 trillion in government spending? maybe that contributed? >> this administration honestly has been trying to sort of, you know -- i don't know, somehow highlight the job growth being strong but burying the fact that we're suffering from the worst inflation that we've seen in decades. we are on the brink of recession. what do we do to those that are down? we kick them. that's basically what this is. wheeler just said and i want to quote him, that one of six members, by the way, of the fed's board. so they have collectively come up with this decision. that wages were rising faster than decades. making the target of 2% inflation. that's their target, 2%

inflation even tougher to reach. consumer prices inflation dropped in october from 7.7% down from a 40-year high in june of 9.1%. if you look at the housing market and the interest rates that they're now trying to compensate with inflation, it's devastating to our economy. so you have people that can't buy homes. you have people that can't sell homes. nobody is buying. and then you have people that can't afford to put gas in their gas tanks. what do we do? let's get them a paid decrease. it's really awful. >> it's ridiculous. marie, i think democrats walk at their on hazard by ignoring this. it was 7.7%, the inflation rate now. 1.4% when he came in office. democrats will say globally there's inflation problems. we did well in the mid-terms. to ignore this this is not a referendum or joe biden. they would have lost if it was the mid-terms. a lot of strategies for republicans being the problems.

inflation is the top concern. people tie inflation to joe biden. writing it off as a global problem is a hazard for democrats. >> it's hard. it is a global problem. those things are true. a lot of this is because of russia's invasion of ukraine. politically it sounds like a dodge. the biden administration and democrats in congress especially before the mid-terms were saying look, we have plans to get this in check. we have passed laws including one that will reduce your prescription drug prices. we tried to bring oil prices down, gas prices down. they're starting to come down again. they say republicans will take away your social security and medicare. the economy is tough. jobs are up. this inflation issue is a complicated one. democrats are trying to go at some of the root causes. there's no quick fixes here. politically that's hard, right? >> it is hard. people have recent memory. prepandemic, we were booming. we had to shut down the economy.

it was a pandemic. so that shut down was merited in the early days of the trump administration. the "wall street journal" reminded us before the pandemic, poverty fell to the lowest place since 1959. look at the gains for different ethnic groups. hispanics up 7.1%. black americans, 7.9%. people remember this economy. it was not that long ago. they contrast it with what is going on now. >> that's right. unfortunately it seems like a distant memory. think about this. we have a government where we spend over $255 billion a year on the interest on debt alone. in fact, it's now getting over a trillion because of the current debt having skyrocketed. this is the same administration that we wasted $28 million, the department of v.a. on solar

panels that they never used. what about the 22 veterans that take their lives every day? what about the $28 million worths of heavy equipment that we surrendered in afghanistan thanks to joe biden? now we're hearing from them to stop raising our wages? that's what this administration and government thinks about it. every dollar is ours. they want to take it away and punish us in the process. >> you mentioned the elephant in the room, the pandemic. the pandemic led to over 150,000 restaurants closing. the shut downs, the lockdowns crippled our economy and this administration thinks that they can regulate their way out of it or overspend. wages? what do wages do? if you give somebody a raise, they buy something. if they buy something, that is a stimulant to the economy. only the private sector can fix this mess, not the government.

people that worked for twitter, google or whatever, big heads about them. i see this as if you don't fit there anymore, find a job that will fit you better and i hope the people that join twitter will be committed to the new twitter, which is committed to actual free speech and the lack of censorship and it will be a happy place where people are grateful for their job to have food to buy their own lunch and twitter is grateful for people that know how to code and whatever word that elon just treated. >> you know, he's destroying twitter. he's censoring people that are making fun of him. he's not all about free speech. he's fired a ton of software engineers. they have no communications department. there's a chance that we could wake up and twitter does not exist. that's difficult for journalists, for human rights activists and a bunch of people. >> i will bet on elon musk. >> i like a lot of what he's doing and he came in there and breathing fresh air.

if you didn't agree with one to the left statement, they censored you or got rid of you. you can't complain. i was called a nazi once. they said nothing. the other part is they want to keep twitter running. so he has to take that into account. i agree with julie's point. people are hiding at home, working for two hours and get a paycheck. >> he can send rockets into outer space, he can keep twitter running. next up, tim allen is getting into the holiday spirit with a disney reboot called "the santa clauses". it's getting liberals upset with saying "merry christmas" has become problematic. many took to twitter to blast the actor for his political beliefs. i love tim allen. you love taylor. >> i don't dislike tim allen. our christmas lights went up. i'm about the christmas spirit. you should say whatever you want to people in this holiday season. >> my christmas tree superintendent. julie, your lights are up.

>> yeah. november 1 my house is like clark griswald's. check it out on instagram. no, i absolutely believe that merry christmas originates from christ. christ in christmas. that's what my children learned growing up in a catholic school and so will your daughter. yeah, there's nothing wrong with that. i think sometimes people get offended by christmas because it has the word christ in it. >> well-said. >> if there's a time when the secular approach is not working is now. there's divisiveness, meanness. let's replace this with cheer, caring, healing. that's what merry christmas is about. wrong time to be censoring it. never the right time. >> no doubt. emily? >> he's not wrong. the specific quote is "merry christmas to all" that he was saying is a problem. that's right. that's the most unfortunate part. the sentiment behind it is not only christ-like but wishing great tidings and great joy.

i don't see how you can be offended with that. >> this will drive a lot of people to want the santa clauses, myself included. talking about making you feel old, a boy in oklahoma was stumped when he came across an old vhs collection. >> look. >> what are those? >> they're books. i'm serious. >> hang on. stop. >> grab one and open it up. >> all right. >> hang on. one second. >> grab the jungle book. open that. >> open the book. >> knowledge? >> what is it? >> it's not a book. >> it's a book. >> you can still sell him. i have the receipt. >> dr. siegel -- >> i think it's a wake-up call that we've gone to la click

culture. everybody everybody spends five seconds on something. those might be any greatest hits there. it's really important that we go back in time, read books. it's ancient technology at this point. >> i want to know who still owns a vhs player? >> my family. we have the vhs library. makes me happy. i don't think we have anything else to play it in anymore. >> exactly. >> i never thought i would feel old but i feel old, marie. >> i have a tape player in my car. >> a few years ago i had all of my old vhs tapes of cheerleading competitions made to dvds. >> and dvds will be extinct soon too. >> my daughter will look at dvds that way. more "outnumbered" in just a moment. ♪
