That's a R M R A.com M G Y N 84 year old Nancy Guthrie, mother of NBC News host Savannah Guthrie, now missing for more than a week as investigators say no suspects, no persons of interest, no vehicles have been identified. New developments unfolding throughout the weekend beginning Friday when a second message purportedly from the Alleged kidnapper was received by local Tucson station KOLD. Investigators have not publicly said whether they believe the new message is credible. The message reportedly does not share the same IP address as the original ransom note sent last week. However, it appears the sender used the same type of secure server to hide their IP address, according to KOLD anchor Mary Coleman, who also says the sender tries to make clear that they were behind the first ransom note as well. Retired FBI agent Jeff Bennett explaining on reporter Brian Enten's show what an IP address is and how it can be hidden with a virtual private network or vpn, making investigators jobs more difficult.
- [03:26]
Jeff Bennett (Retired FBI Agent)
There's a lot of talk of, you know, these KFR kidnapped for ransom messages coming in. And quite simply, they are being, from what I understand, they're being communicated through email. And so that email is coming in through an IP address. And for the viewers, an IP address is quite simply a bridge. It's a bridge from a user to an endpoint. So an IP address is owned by a company. And so as the FBI, if I can determine where that bridge is and who owns that bridge, I can go to that company and I could say, hey, who's on the other side of that bridge? But the problem with a VPN is it's not just one bridge that I have to figure out. It's a thousand bridges. So I have to cross one bridge and then I have to cross a thousand other bridges.

News Reporter/Anchor
So one of the local TV stations that received the first note and then the second note, their news director said the notes didn't come in through an email per se. They have like a form on their website where you can submit news tips. So you fill out your name, you fill out the subject, you fill out. You know what I mean? And then it's like a form on the website.
- [04:36]
Jeff Bennett (Retired FBI Agent)
Yeah. So that's still going to use an IP address.

Also on Friday, six days into Nancy's disappearance, investigators discovering and removing another camera from Nancy Guthrie's property, this one from her roof. Later that day, investigators also towing away what appears to be a blue Subaru from Nancy Guthrie's garage. President Trump Friday on Air Force One, updating reporters on the investigation conducted in tandem between the Pima County Sheriff's Department and the FBI.
- [05:07]
Donald Trump
You promised Savannah Guthrie's family the full support of federal law enforcement. FBI is now. I'll give you a little statement. I think we're doing very well on that regard. You're probably surprised to hear that. I think we're doing very well. Very well, meaning we have some clues I think that are very strong and I think we could have some answers coming up fairly soon. Nationwide search. Is this a search going to Mexico about a search? I'm talking about a solution. We have some things I think that will maybe come out reasonably soon from DOJ or FBI or whoever that could be suspect. Yeah, it could be definitive. A lot has taken place in the last couple of hours. A lot of, a lot of things have happened with regard to that horror, horrible situation in the last couple of hours.

Megyn Kelly
Exactly what the president was referring to remains unclear. On Saturday, Savannah and siblings Cameron and Annie releasing another video plea. We received your message and we understand. We beg you now to return our mother to us so that we can celebrate with her. This is the only way we will have peace. This is very valuable to us and we will pay. KGUN now reporting. The original ransom note demands $6 million due by 5pm this evening. Late Saturday night, investigators entering Annie's home for several hours. Journalists on the scene report seeing camera flashes through the windows. The family reportedly moved elsewhere earlier last week. Yesterday, investigators returning again to Nancy's home, searching the backyard area. One investigator seen searching in what looked like an open manhole. It is unclear if the pipe leads to a septic tank, water storage or some type of drainage pipe. Reporters also spotting a topographical map of the area used by investigators as the Pima County Sheriff's Department confirms searches underway in multiple locations. FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly set to arrive in Tucson today, though the bureau says it was part of a preplanned trip. Investigators have also not publicly clarified several unresolved questions, including the full data that has been recovered from Nancy's pacemaker, what proof exists that she actually returned home under her own power the night she disappeared, and whether any family members have been asked to submit to polygraph examinations. We'll bring you the very latest on the Megyn Kelly show later today. A post on President Trump's Truth Social account sparking bipartisan backlash after briefly displaying an image depicting former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama with their faces superimposed onto ape bodies. The image appearing late Thursday in the final seconds of a video about alleged 2020 election fraud. the end of that election fraud clip, a separate video appears to autoplay for roughly one second. The full autoplayed video not posted on Trump's account shows a number of Democrat political figures edited onto animal bodies while the song the Lion Sleeps Tonight plays with President Trump depicted as the lion. The brief frame captured from that autoplayed video showing The Obamas depicted as apes, quickly circulating online and drawing criticism from both Democrats and some Republicans. Senator from South Carolina, Tim Scott, the only black Republican in the Senate, posting to X praying it was fake because it's the most racist thing I've seen out of this White House. The President should remove it. Senator Pete Ricketts Republican from Nebraska posting quote, even if this was a Lion King meme, a reasonable person sees the racist context to this. The White House should do what anyone does when they make a mistake, remove this and apologize. As backlash swelled, someone removing the post. Shortly before noon on Friday, the White House releasing a statement, quote, a White House staffer erroneously made the post. It has been taken down. President Trump Friday aboard Air Force One. Asked about the controversy who sent it and are you going to fire it?
- [09:23]
Donald Trump
No, I looked at it. I saw it and I just looked at the first part. It was about voter fraud in someplace, Georgia. I guess during the end of it, there was some kind of a picture that people don't like. I wouldn't like it either, but I didn't see it. I just, I looked at the first part and it was really about voter fraud and the machines, how crooked it is, how disgusting it is. Then I gave it to the people to generally they look at the whole thing. But I guess somebody didn't and they posted and we took it down.
- [09:53]
Megyn Kelly
Mr. President, a number of Republicans are calling on you to apologize for that post. Is that something you're going to do?
- [09:59]
Donald Trump
No, I didn't make a mistake. I mean, you give. I look at a lot of thousands of things. I looked at the beginning of it, it was fine, but that was a takeoff of the Lion King and a lot of people were cover different in different positions. So. But I spoke to Tim Scott. He was great. Tim is a great guy. He understood that 100% at the very least.
- [10:21]
Megyn Kelly
You condemn the racist parts of the video.
- [10:24]
Donald Trump
Of course I do.
- [10:25]
Megyn Kelly
From there, the establishment media, including but not limited to ABC, CBS, NPR and more, churning out headlines about Mr. Trump's refusal to apologize for the post. And of course the controversy a focus of the Sunday shows yesterday. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries yesterday on cnn, I do want to ask about a video that President Trump shared, a racist video and it depicted former President Obama First Lady Michelle Obama as apes. About 12 hours later, the White House blamed a staffer for the post, removed it. But the President says he doesn't need to apologize because he didn't make a mistake.
- [11:03]
Jeff Bennett (Retired FBI Agent)
He definitively needs to apologize. It was a disgusting video. And the President was rightly and appropriately and forcefully denounced by people all across the country, Democrats and even a handful of Republicans who finally showed some backbone in pushing back against the President's malignant bottom feeder like behavior.
- [11:28]
Megyn Kelly
In the meantime, a clip of Texas State Representative Gene Wu, who was born in China, from a podcast in 2024 getting new attention this weekend after Elon Musk reposted it, writing shame on him. Many pointing out the hypocrisy of those, including some on the right who rushed to condemn President Trump for an errant post by a staffer that accidentally included a racist video, but who allowed this kind of anti white racism to, to go unchecked all the time.

Community Activist
I always tell people the day the Latino, African American, Asian and other communities realize that they are, that they share the same oppressor is the day we start winning. Because we are the majority in this country now. We are, we, we have the ability to take over this country and to do what is needed for everyone and to make things fair. But the problem is our communities are divided. They're completely divided.

The outrage over the president expected to continue until the next outrage, which will inevitably come any day now. Coming up, U.S. olympic skier Lindsey Bonn in a shocking crash during her downhill run. And we have a Super bowl champion. One of the biggest problems in American healthcare right now is accessible.

Team USA skier Lindsey Vonn crashing just 13 seconds into her downhill run at the Winter Olympics in Cortina, Italy. Von's run one of the most highly anticipated events of the games. The 41 year old returning from nearly six years in retirement, now competing with a partial titanium knee replacement in her right knee. On top of that, just Nine days before the race, Vonn crashing in Switzerland, rupturing her left acl. Vonn choosing to stay in the competition but adding a knee brace to the uniform during yesterday's run. Vaughn's right ski pole clipping a neon orange gait sending her airborne before crashing hard back onto the mountain, briefly disappearing in a cloud of snow before tumbling to a stop. Medical crews securing Vaughn in a gurney and airlifting her off the course. After an initial stop at a clinic in Cortina, she was transported to a hospital about two hours away, where doctors say she underwent an orthopedic operation to stabilize a fracture in her left leg. U.S. ski and Snowboard Chief of Sport Anouk Patty telling the Associated Press, quote, she'll be okay, but it's going to be a bit of a process. This sport is brutal and people need to remember when they're watching that these athletes are throwing themselves down a mountain and going really, really fast. Von, a four time World cup champion, had been favored for gold before the earlier ACL crash, saying before the race, quote, this would be the best comeback I've done so far, definitely the most dramatic. Ultimately, Team USA's Breezy Johnson capturing the gold for America. Johnson earning Team USA's first gold medal of these Olympics and becoming only the second American woman to win Olympic downhill gold, the first since Lindsey Vonn's win in 2010. As the American national anthem played and the Stars and stripes were raised, Breezy, with her hand on her heart in the number one spot spot on the winner's podium, sang and held back tears. Perhaps unsurprising, but to many disappointing these games, seeing a number of Team USA athletes, not like Breezy, who are choosing to make political comments disparaging the country they are representing. Figure skater Amber Glenn, who identifies as bisexual and pansexual, whatever that is, becoming a prominent LGBTQ voice. Asked about the Trump administration's approach to the LGBTQ community.
- [16:09]
Amber Glenn
Yeah, it's been a hard time for the community overall under this administration. It isn't the first time that we've had to come together as a community and try and fight for our human rights. And now especially it's not just affecting the queer community, but many other communities. And I think that we are able to support each other in a way that we didn't have to before. And because of that, it's made us a lot stronger.

Glenn notably not addressing the many countries competing in these games where same sex relationships remain criminalized, nor did she indicate which rights gay people have lost under the Trump administration, which features several openly gay people in key positions yesterday, Glenn coming in third in the women's free skate portion of the team event. However, due to a strong performance from teammate Ilia Malinin, Team USA securing the gold. Former Team USA freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy, now competing for Great Britain, partly because that team is easier to make posting a vulgar anti ice image to Instagram appearing to show the phrase F ice written in urine. Kenworthy is set to compete in the half pipe event beginning February 19th, where we certainly hope he'll lose. The strongest backlash coming against U.S. freestyle skier Hunter Hess after he made these comments at a Friday press conference.
- [17:41]
Hunter Hess
It brings up mixed emotions to represent the US Right now. I think it's a little hard. There's obviously a lot going on that I'm not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren't. I think for me it's more I'm representing my friends and family back home, the people that represent it before me, all the things that I believe are good about the US I just think if it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I'm representing it. Just because I'm wearing the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the U.S. so yeah, I just kind of want to do it for my friends and my family and the people that support me getting here.

President Trump weighing in on truth, social writing Quote US Olympic skier Hunter Hess, a real loser, says he doesn't represent his country in the current Winter Olympics. If that's the case, he shouldn't have tried out for the team and it's too bad he's on it. Very hard to root for someone like this. Hess is scheduled to compete February 19th in the men's freestyle half pipe qualifiers. Any athlete unsure of how to handle political questions on the Olympic stage might look to 2020 Freestyle Wrestling Gold medalist Tamira Mensah Stock following her victory in Tokyo. I love representing the US I freaking love living there. I love it and I'm so happy I get to represent USA Last night the Seattle Seahawks taking on the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 60 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Minutes into the game, the Seahawks striking first with a 33 yard field goal. Patriots quarterback Drake May sacked twice in the first quarter. In the second quarter, the Seahawks Kenneth Walker, who had more twists and turns than a Harlan Coban novel, breaking off with two big first down runs, driving his team well into Patriots territory. The Seahawks taking a 90 lead into halftime. Puerto Rican reggaeton pop star Bad Bunny performing the halftime show and you needed English captions to understand him singing almost entirely in Spanish. Bad or is it? Bunny did refrain from wearing a dress or making overtly anti ice statements as he has in the past, although given all the Spanish, we can't really be sure. Lady Gaga making a surprise appearance singing in English. Thanks Ricky Martin. Also joining for a brief song toward the end of the show. Bad Bunny sang in English, God Bless America and then listing off all countries on the American continents, many on the right opting to turn the channel to turning point, USA's All American halftime show featuring artists Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice and Gabby Barrett. Charlie Kirk show producer Blake Neff reporting on x the TP USA Halftime show drawing more than 5 million concurrent viewers to its YouTube channel, with an additional million viewers on Charlie's channel, not to mention the other platforms it aired on. Singing under his real name, Robert Richie. Kid Rock closing out the show with Cody Johnson's Til you can't, adding a special extra verse in a stunning performance.

Donald Trump
There's a book that's sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off. There's a man who died for all our sins hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus and he'll give you a second chance till you can't take it. If you got a chance, take it. Take it while you got a chance.

The game resuming and in the third quarter, the Seahawks racking up a fourth field goal, this one from 41 yards, bringing the score to 12 0. The fourth quarter saw Hawks QB Sam Darnold throw to tight end A.J. barner for a 190 lead. New England then finally putting some points on the board, wide receiver Mack Hollins scoring the touchdown for a score of 19 7. But the Seahawks defense was just too much for the young Patriots quarterback and his offensive line. Another Seahawks field goal followed by a touchdown, the Patriots scoring one more time, attempting two extra points, but an incomplete pass leaving the score at 29 13. The Seahawks winning their second Super Bowl. The Pats not putting up much of a fight. Owner Robert Kraft was seen yawning in the skybox, a response shared round the nation.
