News When You Want It with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Doug Krisner. New information was made available today regarding the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, mother of Today Show co-host Savannah Guthrie. The FBI released photos and a video of a possible suspect. Now, the video shows a masked person wearing gloves approaching the front door of Nancy Guthrie's home.
That person was carrying a large backpack and what appears to be a handgun in a holster. White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt says President Trump has been following this case closely.
The president encourages any American across the country with any knowledge of this suspect to please call the FBI. And once again, I will reiterate that the prayers of this entire White House are with Savannah and her family at this time. And we hope this person is found soon and that her mother is brought home safely.
Now, a series of ransom notes have been sent. No person, though, has been identified. We go next to the latest fallout from the DOJ's release of the Epstein files. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has come under fire for his appearance in the files. Lutnick said he did not visit Epstein's private island in 2012 after Epstein was convicted as a sex offender.
Here's an exchange between Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen and Lutnick.
Did you, in fact, make the visit to Jeffrey Epstein's private island? I did have lunch with him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me, as were my four children and nannies. I had another couple. They were there as well with their children. And we had lunch on the island.
Now, Lutnick is facing calls to resign over his relationship with Epstein since the files show the relationship was more extensive than Lutnick previously revealed. The White House said today that President Trump has no plans to remove Lutnick from his post. The brother of Elon Musk, Kimball, was connected with at least two women through Jeffrey Epstein.
Emails released by the Department of Justice show an easy rapport between Kimball Musk and Epstein as they discussed party plans, relationships, and whether Musk would be able to visit Epstein's island. In a statement, Kimball Musk said his only meeting with Epstein was in his New York office during the day. Senior U.S.

Chapter 2: What details were revealed about the suspect in Nancy Guthrie's disappearance?
The hearing focused on the killings of two U.S. citizens during enforcement actions earlier this year in Minneapolis. Here's an exchange between California Congressman Eric Swalwell and Todd Lyons, acting director of ICE.
How many ICE agents have been fired for their conduct under your leadership? Sir, I can get you that data. I'll get that back to you. Is it more than one? I'm not going to speak about personnel actions, but I'll get you that data. Can you tell us if at least, God, I hope at least one person has been fired for their conduct since these operations have begun.
Are you telling us you can't even say one person's been fired? Sir, I'm not going to talk about personnel actions, but we will get back to you. But two people have been killed so far. Is that right? A nurse named Pretty and a mom named Good. Two people have been killed so far. Yes, sir.
Democrats have said they will not support any more funding for the Department of Homeland Security unless it imposes new limits on federal immigration agents. Incidentally, the deadline for those talks is Friday. We move to business news next. After the bell, Ford said it's expecting profit to jump this year after the company was saddled with a surprise tariff bill at the end of last year.
More from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett.
CFO Sherry House told reporters an unexpected change in tariff provisions cost Ford about $900 million in savings it expected last year. But looking ahead, Stephanie Valdez-Stritty, the director of industry insights at Cox Automotive, says Ford is in good shape.
I think they're going to be well positioned. They're going to recover from the Nivelles fire. They have a lot of hybrids in place. And if you look at 2025 sales, they were up 6%.
Ford expects profit will rise, even as it contends with ongoing turmoil tied to tariffs and its money-losing EV business. In New York, Charlie Pellett, Bloomberg Radio.
