Karen, we begin in Arizona where authorities have reportedly released a man who was detained in connection with the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today Show anchor Savannah Guthrie. The man who only wanted to be identified as Carlos said he was detained after a traffic stop. He spoke with reporters outside his home in Rio Rico, Arizona.
Howard Lutnick 0:54
I tried to clear my name. I didn't do anything. Can you tell us your name again?
Karen Moscow 0:59
I hope they get the suspect because I'm not it. They better do their job and find the suspect that did it so they can clear my name. I'm done.
Nathan Hager 1:07
Carlos added he doesn't know who Nancy Guthrie is or why law enforcement thought he might be connected to her kidnapping. The case has drawn international attention. It took a dramatic turn when the FBI released photo and video images of a possible suspect outside Nancy Guthrie's home near Tucson. A video posted on X showed a masked individual wearing gloves approaching a front door with what appears to be a handgun in a holster and carrying a large backpack. Nancy Guthrie was reported missing February 1st. Authorities think she was taken against her will with the suspect disconnecting the camera doorbell.

Well, we do have some tragic news out of Canada overnight, Nathan. At least 10 people are dead and 25 others injured after a mass shooting in a remote town in western Canada. Eight people died after shots were fired at a school in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, including a woman whom police believe to be the shooter. Authorities say two more people were found dead at a nearby home. British Columbia Premier David Eby told reporters that police officers reached the school within two minutes, and he spoke at a news conference after the shooting.
Nathan Hager 2:11
It's hard to know what to say on a night like tonight. This is the kind of thing that feels like it happens in other places and not close to home in a way that this feels for so many British Columbians and Canadians.
Karen Moscow 2:22
British Columbia Premier David Eby noted that authorities are not yet releasing the identity of the suspected attacker. In a statement on social media, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said that he was devastated by the mass shooting, which is Canada's deadliest since 2020.

It's time to Washington now, Karen, where lawmakers are about to go on the record on President Trump's signature economic policy. The House has set the vote today on whether to reject some of President Trump's tariffs, starting with a resolution to repeal the duties on Canadian goods. House Speaker Mike Johnson's been using legislative procedures to delay these votes, but three Republicans joined with Democrats in blocking his latest attempt. Republican Congressman Marlon Stutzman of Indiana says the president should have the authority to impose emergency tariffs.

What recent developments are there in the Nancy Guthrie case?

Marlon Stutzman 3:07
I think we've seen a new sort of using the tariff tool differently than what oftentimes we think of with tariffs. If you're using tariffs to negotiate with other countries, that's good. I mean, if we're going to just put tariffs in place for, you know, in perpetuity, I think that's a whole different conversation.
Nathan Hager 3:24
Indiana Republican Marlon Stutzman appeared on Bloomberg's Balance of Power. The three Republicans who pushed for today's vote are Kentucky's Thomas Massey, Kevin Kiley, who's facing a tough reelection in California, and retiring Nebraska Congressman Don Bacon.
Karen Moscow 3:37
Let's stay in the nation's capital. Nathan, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is saying he will discuss Iran, Gaza and other regional issues with President Trump during his visit to the White House today.
