Good evening. Im erin burnett. Outfront tonight, decertify the election. That is the demand coming from none other than the former president , Donald Trump, and it comes in a new letter to Georgias Secretary of state, brad raffensperger. The secretary is outfront exclusively tonight to respond for the first time to trumps new attempt to overturn the results of the election nearly 11 months after the election. So trump claims in his letter that there is a new report of invalid ballots and says, quote, i would respectfully request that your department check this and, if true, along with many other claims of Voter Fraud and voter irregularities, start the process of decertifying the election or whatever the correct legal remedy is and announce the true winner. That letter was sent three days ago. The Election Results and been certified and audits again and again and the true winner is still Joe Biden. Trump did not win 321 days ago in georgia, and there has been zero evidence since to change that. In fact, in georgia, just the state of georgia alone, they have performed three recounts and numerous investigations. So not only is the letter baseless, but it again shows that trump doesnt care at all about the rule of law. In fact, he refers to Joe Biden as an illegitimate president. Now, there is already an ongoing Criminal Investigation into trufrms earlier attempts to pressure raffensperger to overturn the election. If you dont remember why, you may want to refresh your memory. Partly because of this call. All i want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. No, he did not win the state. Outfront now, the republican Secretary Of State of georgia, brad raffensperger, who is also the author of an upcoming book about the election and what he went through in standing up to trump for the facts on the vote. His book is called Integrity Counts. Secretary raffensperger, i appreciate your time talking to you about this. This the first time youre commenting on this new letter from the president , in which he refers to Joe Biden as an illegitimate president. What was your initial reaction when you read the letter . Good evening, erin. Thanks for having me. Well, im a lifelong republican. At the end of the day, i have to always put, you know, my duty to the constitution and to our country above all. At the end of the day, weve done audits. Weve done vinvestigations and some of those are still ongoing, so i Cant Comment on those. But Vice President biden did carry the state of georgia. So let me ask you about the timing here. You got this letter three days ago. The election was 321 days ago. Were you even given what he said to you on the phone, even given the things he said before, were you surprised to receive this letter three days ago . I think at some level he must know that he did lose the election because his advisers, his lawyers told him that he lost the election. In fact, books are coming out that told him where the polling was coming into the election. But people use elections and this narrative to really disrupt and destroy confidence in the election process. Like you said, weve done three counts on this, the initial count, 100 hand recount, and then did a final scan count, and all three results were very close. At the end of the day, President Trump came up short in georgia. We checked and ran the Trap Lines on every allegation that was made. I wrote a Tenpage Letter to congress, and ive highlighted all that in my upcoming book. Its called Integrity Counts because integrity does count. It always has and always will. I hope youre right. I believe in that myself. I want to read a specific claim that trump makes in this letter, secretary. He says, enclosed is a report of 43,000 Absentee Ballot votes counted in Dekalb County that violated the chain of custody rules, making them invalid. Now, hes referring, of course, as you know, to a report from a Protrump Website which does not question the voters or the ballots themselves, right . But they actually their questioning is on how fast the ballots were actually transported. Well, exactly. Go ahead. Tell me your response. As soon as we were notified of that, we began an investigation several weeks ago and coming out of it, the first thing that you notice is that the Dekalb CountyElection Official took an extended leave of absence. But we have an ongoing investigation of that. But to your point, the ballots themselves were approved and are lawful ballots. But where process is violated, thats what were investigating right now. That will come before the state election board. Why do you think trump sent this letter now . I mean as opposed to you know, hes had 11 months, and obviously hes been very vocal in those 11 months, but why do you think hes sent this letter now . Well, hes been leaning into and propagating the big lie, and hes been fundraising off this issue. I know hell be here in georgia this coming weekend. So youd have to ask him what his motivations were. But at the end of the day, weve looked at every single allegation thats been made, and we wanted to make sure that we have true and accurate results. People said that there were thousands of dead people that voted. It was less than a handful. They also told us that over 66,000 underage voters voted. There were zero. They talked about unregistered voters voting. There were none of that. So we have really made sure that weve been very thoughtful and thorough in our responses. But President Trump came up short in georgia. So let me ask you obviously youre laying all this out very clearly here to me in our conversation. Do you plan to offer a formal response to him, or is this is this it . Well, while we have an ongoing investigation, well let them finish up their work, and Theyll Report to the state election board, and that will be the answer. So i want to ask you something else. You talk about Integrity Counts and youve been very clear about that, and you have stood up courageously to the president when others would not, certainly not publicly. But you did say recently you wouldnt comply if the January 6thCongressional Committee Subpoenas you. Obviously January 6th is related to the former president and the big lie. So explain to me why you wouldnt comply if they wanted to talk to you. Just whats your logic . Well, we wanted to see if theyre going to issue a subpoena. I feel like i had a conversation with President Trump. Its a onehour conversation. Its all out there in the public domain. We really right now are focused on implementing all the Election Law changes that we had with s. B. 202. We have a lot of elections this fall with our municipal elections. We have work to do here, and so if this is just going to be a Sideshow Up in washington, we really want to be focused on what we need to do here in georgia. All right. Well, i appreciate your time, secretary. Thank you very much as always. Again, as i said to you before, before we even came to air, i said im sorry we have to talk about this again. Yet here we are. Im glad you do because i think it makes a difference, and i appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks, erin. Its not just in georgia that trump and his allies are attempting to overturn the election. Of course arizona. We are just four days away there from the results of the socalled Election Audit being released. New Reporting Tonight reveals that the head of Cyber Ninjas, the name of the group hired to oversee the audit, has extensive connections to Team Trump. Documents obtained by the Arizona Republic show that in midnovember, Doug Logan, who had no prior election experience, was scheduled to meet with Protump Attorney and pusher of the lie Sidney Powell. By late november, staying at the home of another protrump attorney, lin wood. Former trump national Security AdviserMichael Flynn and former Overstock Ceo Patrick byrne to subpoena Voting Machines across the country. Days before the deadly insurrection, a logan written documented filled with Election Fraud claims is given to paul as a bid to pressure u. S. Senators for Vice President pence to delay certifying the election overall. And then by early february, logan again talking to the republican State Senate PresidentKaren Fann a month before she ordered the audit and said logans cyber Ninjas Firm would lead it. Outfront now the reporter behind all of this reporting, the Arizona Republics jen fiefield. So for months theres been questions about Doug Logan, the Cyber Ninjas group. Who is he . How did this come about because theyve never done an audit before and have no experience at all in auditing. So you looked into it. How connected is Doug Logan to trump allies . First, thank you so much for having me. This is really important work. And as you said, its been the question for six months now. How did Doug Logan, the leader of a small cybersecurity company, come out of seemingly nowhere . But as you said, theres connections that weve pinpointed from midnovember to early january where hes working in the room or on the phone directly with trump allies like Sidney Powell as they attempt to overturn the election or to block Joe Biden from gaining the presidency. So while we didnt pinpoint exactly Doug Logan speaking to Donald Trump, we have him in the room with the people who are speaking to Donald Trump as they do this work. Its probably as close as were going to get until we get potentially more records from all this. So you also lay out in great detail logans back story. Hes 41 years old. Hes only 41 years old. He is a married father of 11 children from florida. A longtime friend calls him a christian conservative whose religion is fundamental to everything he does. So how does that fit, his belief about religion, to his links to Team Trump . How does that all fit together . It was really important to show the religious side of Doug Logan because since this audit began, theres been many religious connections. On telegram and other rightwing sites, theres many people talking about how this is a religious experience, how Doug Logan is doing the gods work. We found out that there is a Prayer Board inside the coliseum where Doug Logan would pray during times of stress. It was to show another side of him. It was to show that he really says and tells his longtime friends that he is committed to doing the right thing. When i met him that first day of the audit, he did come off as he was trying to do the audit accurately, which is in contrary to what youve heard in the news throughout the months. So im trying to show that this is a multilayered this is a multilayered idea that Doug Logan is here running this audit, being paid and working with all of the trump allies, but who is he really . And so now were just four days away obviously from the results here, and now that we know all this and youre reporting about the Cyber Ninjas, the founder, mr. Logan, and his ties to Team Trump, does any of it make a difference to this fundamental question in your view about the outcome here of the audit . I think reading this report on friday, youre going to want to know everything you can about the man who wrote it. Youre going to want to know where he came from, what his intentions were, who is paying him. These are why weve been asking the questions for six months, and were finally starting to get answers here as more records and more documents come out. And i left the question up to readers to decide what his intentions were and whether he will be honest and forthcoming in this report or whether, as in past reports or statements that hes made, hes going to maybe just perhaps raise more questions about our election. And what happens here will really show whats going to happen across the united states as other states consider doing audits like this. Its really all in his hands right now. All right. Jen, thank you very much. I appreciate it. Such important reporting from jen and the Arizona Republic. Thank you. Next, the covid crisis. So dire in some parts of the united states that hospitals are now choosing which patients to treat.

And thats exactly why you should join. Tonight more states forced to choose which patients they treat and which ones they turn away amid an overwhelming spike in covid hospitalizations. Idaho, a state with one of the lowest Vaccination Rates in the united States Tonight facing crucial decisions as its fight against covid grows more desperate. Dan simon is outfront. You guys want eggos . Reporter he works as a truck driver. Today, hes a fulltime caregiver in coeur dalene, idaho to his twins after their mother, darryls sister, died last month from covid19. As they were intubating her, theyd given her the sedation and the paralytic, which is standard, her heart just let go. Reporter Natalie Rise was only 46. Tell me what did Natalie Do For A Living . Natalie was a registered nurse, and she did home Health Care. She went around and helped people in their homes, elderly. Reporter which made her firm Antivaccination Stance all the more puzzling. She was telling me not to get vaccinated. I think it was from misinformation. I think it was from falling into negative Social Media and bloggers, youtubers. Reporter as the Delta Variant continues to run rampant, Health Care leaders face a challenge. Nearly 30 of their own ranks as of july still had not been vaccinated according to the covid states project. And as cases and hospitalizations remain high here in idaho, one official saying theres really only one word to describe the current situation. Awful. Were in the worst state that we ever have been in the pandemic. Reporter things right now so dire that last week the State Authorized Hospitals the right to ration treatment. It comes even as the state still has no Mask Mandate. Protesters staging mask burning rallies like this one in march. Idaho also has one of the lowest Vaccination Rates in the country. The lack of restrictions causing frustration in neighboring Washington State, where there is a Mask Mandate and where hospitals like this one in spokane are filling up with patients from idaho. Doctors warning everyone from cancer patients to people on a Transplant List could see delays in treatment. Those patients who are impacted and their families, how do they take that . Horribly and rightly so. Were doing everything that we can to expand capacity, get those folks into the Operating Room with their surgeons who can cure them. But at the end of the day, were delaying their care. They did cpr for 45 minutes. Reporter as darryl got the tragic call his sister had died i was destroyed. I didnt know what was going to happen with these two beautiful children. Reporter he was also grappling with something else. His 71yearold unvaccinated mother had also gotten covid and was coming out of a medically induced coma. She had to be told that her daughter, just a few rooms away, had died from the same disease. I got a Phone Call from the nurses saying, get back up here. You need to tell your mom. Were all mothers and she deserves to know. Reporter even now, darryl says his mother is still on the fence about the vaccine. Now left to raise his niece and nephew, he says the day following his Sisters Death the next day i went and got my vaccination. It was the hardest decision of my life. Am i doing right by god . Am i doing right by natalie . And i got it out of fear. So sad. Dan, i experienced this in idaho this summer, seeing the groups of vaccinated and unvaccinated. How tense is it from what you see now in idaho, where obviously you are tonight, and also neighboring Washington State where you really do see these pockets of vaccinated and pockets of unvaccinated. How is the tension . Reporter well, medical officials, erin, on both sides of the border are saying what is happening is so tragic. What theyre saying, and this is where they get angry, is why stick with the Status Quo . Why not enact a Mask Mandate . But what makes them really angry is seeing people die needlessly, and they blame it almost entirely, erin, on Vaccine Misinformation on Social Media. Erin . Unbelievable how powerful that is. More powerful than the truth. Thank you so much. I appreciate it, dan. Next, a new 911 call obtained by cnn reveals what a witness saw between Gabby Petito and her fiance.

Audio of a 911 call just released where the caller reports what he calls a Domestic Dispute between Gabby Petito and her fiance, brian laundrie. Im calling im right on the corner of Main Street by moonflower, and were driving by, and id like to report a Domestic Dispute. A florida with a white Florida License plate, White Van. What were they doing . We drove by them. The gentleman was slapping the girl. He was slapping her . Yes, and then we stopped. They ran up and down the sidewalk. He proceeded to hit her, hopped in the car, and they drove off. All right. Now, this as the fbi just concluded a search at the Laundrie Family Home a day after officials say they believe they found petitos remains, which included removing a Ford Mustang from the property when they went to the laundrie home. Athena jones is outfront. Reporter a massive search for the fiance of Gabby Petito. Fbi agents and local police surrounding the north port, florida, home of brian laundrie, carrying out a Search Warrant and questioning laundries parents, who say they have not seen him since tuesday, when he left with a backpack saying he was going to the nearby carlton nature reserve. Meanwhile, authorities in wyoming plan to conduct an autopsy of the body found over the weekend, believed to be petito, a 22yearold from New York who went missing weeks ago while on a Crosscountry Road Trip with laundrie. Human remains were discovered consistent with the description of gabrielle Gabby Petito. Full Forensic Identification has not been completed to confirm 100 that we found gabby, but her family has been notified of this discovery. Reporter Petitos Father tweeting this picture of his daughter with the message she touched the world. On sunday and we came across a White Van that had florida plates. Reporter Youtube Vloggers posting new video of what appears to be the white Ford Van with florida plates that petito and laundrie were traveling in. They say they saw it on August 27th while searching for a Camping Spot in the same area where the body was found. The van was completely dark. There was nobody there. The van looked like it was pretty much kind of abandoned. Reporter laundrie returned alone to the home he and petito shared with his family on September 1st in the White Van. Petitos family reported her missing ten days later. Laundrie has not talked to investigators. Theres an enormous amount of pressure, im sure, on him to provide answers and whats going on here. Reporter and with the likely discovery of petitos body, more questions now surround the couples August 12th encounter with police in moab, utah, captured on Body Camera and prompted by this 911 call. We were driving by and id like to report a Domestic Dispute. Florida license plate, White Van. Reporter police say the pair were engaged in an altercation. Weve just been fieghting ths morning. Some personal issues. And he wouldnt let me in the car before. Reporter no charges were filed. Law enforcement so far not saying what, if anything, they believe the incident has to do with petitos ultimate fate. Now, an autopsy on the body found over the weekend in wisconsin, thats being planned for tomorrow. It means we could learn relatively soon whether those remains are in fact Gabby Petito. We also learned this afternoon that the attorney for the Laundrie Family is going to be having a Press Conference on Long IslandTuesday Afternoon at 1 00 p. M. So we dont know what hes going to say, but theres certainly a lot of questions that reporters are going to have for him. So many for him. Athena, thank you very much. I want to go now to jim clemente. Hes a retired fbi profiler. And lawrence ca blinn ski. I want to again play part of the 911 call we just obtained where the caller reports what he calls a Domestic Dispute between Gabby Petito and brian laundrie. Heres part of it. Im calling im right on the corner of Main Street by moonflower, and were driving by and id like to report a Domestic Dispute. A florida with a white a Florida License, White Van. What were they doing . We drove by them. A gentleman was slapping the girl. He was slapping her . Yes, and then we stopped. They ran up and down the sidewalk. He proceeded to hit her, hopped in the car, and they drove off. So, jim, i do just want to make sure im clear here. Talking to athena, she was explaining this call was about the same incident that then appeared on Body Cam. The police did conclude based on other what gabby and brian said as well as others who saw, that this wasnt exactly what happened, that she was the one who was slapping him. But you get a call like this. So youre shaking your head. You tell me how significant you think this call could somebody. I think this call is very significant. This person has no, you know, horse in the race. He has enough Fear And Anxiety about what he saw that he called 911. Thats usually a pretty high bar. I dont believe what the police determined was actually accurate. I think that Body Cam showed multiple indicia or typical things we see in coercive control Domestic Violence situations. He was blaming her. Laundrie was blaming gabby for everything. She was taking it on herself, saying that he gets frustrated with me. She was saying that he grabbed her in the face. Now, this is in direct contradiction to what he said. He said he didnt put his hands on her. He said he didnt hit her. And yet those lies to the police, they were believed. And unfortunately the first officer was treating her perfectly. It was great. But then the second officer came in, and he made a determination that laundrie was actually the victim, and that was based on incorrect reading of the nuances of those circumstances. I think thats really crucial what youre saying because obviously it is important. The Police Report did conclude something different. As you lay it out, when you hear the Audio Cues and how he was talking and treating her, you hear something that supports what the 911 caller said. So, lawrence, let me ask you about where we go from here. An autopsy will be scheduled, or it is scheduled, i understand, for tomorrow. So how soon do you think it will be, and do you think it will be definitive in terms of a cause and time of death . Well, clearly the autopsy is a major piece of evidence in this case. First of all, the body has to be identified 100 . That can be done through dental records, fingerprints, or dna. But its likely that it is her. Its got to be confirmed. But then the cause of death must be determined. The cause of death, the manner of death, and if possible, the estimated time of death. Now, all of these things are very crucial, but also the state of the body. Were talking about roughly 17 days after the facetime Phone Call from gabby to her mother on august 24th. And so three weeks is a long time for decomposition to take place. I dont know how what the state of the body is to be quite frank, and that could complicate the autopsy. Now, if the cause of death is something like blunt trauma to the head, theres going to be physical evidence. You could see the trauma in the head or in the skull, either by C Xray or visually. If its a strangulation, for example, you can see that in a fractured hyoid bone. The cause of death is very, very crucial. The manner of death clearly is going to be called a homicide. But of course brian laundrie, if hes found alive, he may claim its an accident or a drug situation. Maybe hell say she overdosed, and so we wont have a Toxicology Report for quite some time. Yeah. I believe that cause of death will be determined and the manner of death will be declared a homicide. So, jim, let me ask you about the 911 call because i think this is actually important, right . So the police came out and concluded that what the 911 caller said was not true, right, that they said she was the aggressor and not he. But you say you see things in the Body Cam video that show that indeed he was the aggressor, these classic signs of domestic abuse and control. I just wanted to play again a part of the Body Cam video from the incident that police say and give you a chance to tell me exactly what you mean. Here it is. Weve been fighting all morning, and he wouldnt let me in the car before. Why wouldnt he let you in the car . He told me i needed to calm down. But im perfectly calm. Im calm all the time, and he really stresses me out. Its a rough morning. She just gets worked up sometimes. I try to distance myself from her, so i locked the car and walked away from her. What happened this morning is shes trying to set up her own website blog. We really had a nice morning if anything, but she just got worked up. So, jim, obviously theres a lot more where that came from, but what do you see . Well, first of all, the dramatic difference in what theyre going through at the same time emotionally. I mean he is calm, cool, just being charming, you know, with the Police Officers. He even goes into joking and so forth. Shes clearly in distress. If he really cared about her, he would be caring about her situation at this point. But she says that he gets frustrated with me. She also says that he she says that it was her fault because shes got ocd. Shes blaming herself. These are really indicators of coercive control. He also lies directly to the police about why he hit the curb, that she yanked the wheel. And she completely contradicts that. And when the Police Officer calls the one witness, not this 911 caller but another witness, that witness said, i saw him shove her, but i didnt see whether she did something first. So the officer then concludes, well, she must be the aggressor even though the only information they have is that he actually shoved her. Its just really unfortunate that that officer decided and i think he superimposed situation from his own life because he talks about his exwife being very filled with anxiety and caused problems, and he let that drive him instead of what was right in front of him. He should have asked gabrielle many more questions. Really important insight. Lawrence, before we go, do you believe, again, given the amount of time that has passed here, that they will be able to determine, you know, the basic the very, very basic thing of whether it was a homicide . Most likely they will find the cause of death, and they will be able to declare it a homicide. However, because this body could be in advanced decomposition, there may be only a skeleton remaining. So if you dont see any signs, toolmarks, or something of that sort, fractures of the bones, its going to be hard. Youve got to try to rule out as much as you can, but not every autopsy gives you a direct medical reason for the death. So we have to wait for the Toxicology Report. Theres other information that the coroner needs to assemble to complete the autopsy report. The case is going to come to a close. The information will be there, but i think most likely they will have a cause of death, and well know that pretty soon. All right. Lawrence, thank you very much. Jim, thank you very much. Thank you.

Of course youve got other democrats like Joe Manchin who that is a complete nonstarter for them. There you are, killed by fire from your own. Manu raju is outfront from capitol hill. This is a pretty incredible moment, right . Speaker pelosi said the next 48 hours are crucial. You just spoke to her. What did she say . Reporter she told me now its just a question of finalizing some of the key final details here. Yeah, you mentioned it. Behind closed doors, i am told she told her Leadership Team the next 48 hours are critical here. Big decisions need to be made about Health Care, about taxes, about the scope of the bill, major issues that have divided the senate and house, democratic caucuses for weeks and raised questions about whether they can pass this massive 3. 5 trillion plan. This is so critical, erin, because not just is this riding on it, but also that acseparate 1. 2 trillion infrastructure plan. That was passed by the senate last month. Pelosi has set a September 27 date to have a vote on that because moderates in her caucus demanded that. But if they dont have a deal on the larger package, if its not passes and the House And Senate by next week, that separate Infrastructure Bill could be sunk by those same liberals who are demanding passage of that larger bill. So a lot of questions here, erin. Next 48 hours crucial. Can they get a deal . Major questions about whether they can do just that. Of course that deal, 3. 5 trillion, you know, youve got progressives who are Do Or Die on that. And you got a lot of moderates who dont want any parts of it. You got some who are willing to stake their reputations on and say no. That includes Joe Manchin. Youve talked to him, and he said, you know what . This whole 3. 5 trillion Bill Thing really needs to slow down. Were not even ready on this. Thats pretty incredible. Reporter i asked him directly whether or not it should be punted until next year. He didnt go that far but made very clear that the brakes should be hit by the leaders. You want to delay till next year, right . You know what i said . I said lets wait a see, whatever we need. The main thing is inflation right now. Inflation is still high. Reporter but the question is that if there is any delay, will that sink that separate smaller Infrastructure Bill that is awaiting action in the house . It just shows you theres no margin for error in the senate. Manchins not there. Kirsten sinema is not there yet. Pelosi can only afford to lose three democrats if all republicans vote no. Very big questions and a key moment for Joe Bidens agenda. Thank you very much, manu. Next, one boss telling his workers not to come back to the office until september of next year. And by the way, even then, not all the time, not even close to it. The ceo Of Airbnb is my guest. And the White House calling this footage of Border Patrol agents apparently confronting haitian migrants, quote, horrible to watch. What we know about these images, next. man eye contact. Elbow pump.

Shes using my Old Spice moisturize with Shea Butter and shes wearing my robe. Mom Ahem Ahem Ahem were out. Tonight the White House announcing it will ease Travel Restrictions and End Quarantine requirements on all fully vaccinated travelers from overseas. A major boon for the Travel And Tourism industry, which has been completely battered by the pandemic. It comes as Airbnbs CeoBrian Chesky is betting on what he calls a Travel Revolution, that sees the industry coming back, and again i quote him, bigger than ever. But at a time when the u. S. Is still averaging close to 150,000 new covid cases, nearly 2,000 deaths a day, what makes him so confident . H hes outfront now. Your words, Travel Revolution and you think the industry will come back bigger than ever. Absolutely. Some people look at this and say things have fundamentally changed and the way people view travel has changed. What are you seeing that makes you so optimistic . Theyre right. Everything has changed. The world is never going back to the way it was in 2019. Before the pandemic, we used to live in one place, our house, work in another place, our office. Now all three places are in the same place and they can be anywhere we want to be. So long as employers allow people to live a hybrid life, where we dont have to come back to work five days a week, what it means is millions of people are more flexible about where they can go, when they can go. This is going to open up a huge amount of flexibility and a lot more travel. This travel, some of its related to longer stays or longer weekends. Absolutely. To give you an example, half of our nights booked are now a week or longer. Half of our business is a week or longer. This is way outside what is considered a typical travel trip, a few nights. A filth of our business by nights is longer than a month. Thats not even travel. This would have never been possible because you would have been back in the office. You generally plan around a oneweek vacation. Exactly. You dont have to believe that like the worlds going to stay like this forever. All you have to believe is that everyones not going to go back to the Office Five days a week to believe that everything has changed, at least somewhat. Thats what were seeing. So now let me talk about this because this is what its about. Its about work as well. Its interesting how you talk but what about you . So airbnb the last i checked. Youre not requiring people to come back for a year now. And even then youve described the lifestyle as live anywhere. Yeah. Okay. So thats very different than what we hear from some other companies. The ceo of morgue an stanley now famously said if you can go to a restaurant, you can come back to the Office F i see you there, i better see you here. You feel differently. Tell me why. Well, i dont think ceos are going to dictate how people work in the future. I think employees will. If a ceo says you have to go back to the office, theyll have a choice. I do want all the Tag Pull or just the people willing to come to my office . I think ultimately we need to compete for the best talent. After compensation, the next best benefit is flexibility. Which is fascinating. When you think about this and you look out, i know that this is permanent in your mind. Absolutely. How youre going to allow people to work. But there is this whole, well, you want to see them sometimes. Me too. I dont think like i he dont think 100 i dont think nun who is thinking theyre going to make the employees go back five days a week or saying theyre 100 remote. Both positions are going to convert to somewhere in the middle. Well want to see employees occasionally. We have to figure out when that is. You can save money on real estate. You can hire a much more diverse talent pool. San francisco does not represent all of the talent in it the world. So especially around the country. So i think there is a huge opportunity here. Now there are risks. There are risks of remote is often very isolating. It is very lonely. I do think that when the risk is a lot of physical communities are going away. Physical offices. Not as many people going to restaurants. Not as many people going to churches, malls. So were going to need to design ways for people to connect in i think one of the things were trying to do with our business is inspire more friends, family gatherings, ways for people to connect. Right. So larger groups. Now it becomes like a business thing. You do an Off Site for a Group Or Something luke that. Absolutely. Okay, in terms of your business, it was a threat when it first happened. Now its like i look back and think, care, airbnb became a great place to be because i wanted to go and couldnt good far. St at first i was like Air Bnb done only eight weeks earlier we were preparing for an ipo. We are a high flik tech startup. Then we lose 80 of our business. That a Mack Truck going 80 miles an hour and slamming on the brakes. We had to rebuild the company from the ground up. We did the entire thing zoom. We went public on zoom. Hired 1,000 people on zoom. And were more productive than weve ever been. I dont think we should live remotely 100 of the time. We should acknowledge this is part of the future. Let me ask you about one other thing. And that is the temporary housing for afghan refugees. I notice when you announced that you said free temporary housing for 20,000. It was coming through the foundation and you personally and also from hosts who were willing to do it. Yes. So where are you right now . How many of these refugees have found Airbnb Homes . So we have had so we have probably around 700 or so people that we have housing for. But we would like to provide housing for 20,000. It seems like there is a lot more than 20,000 refugees. So were working as hard as we can to get as many hosts as possible to open their homes all over the country. We started the efforts about ten years ago, actually, initially with people temporarily displaced because of disasters like hurricane sandy. Yeah. Eventually we started housing refugees. So if nun is really interested in providing housing for refugees, can you go to airbnb. Org. We provide all the tools. You know, you can choose to open your place for free. But if you want to get paid, we will still reum imburse you. Brian, great to see you and in person. Exactly. Good to see you. All right.

If you come to the united states illegally that, is a stern message from the Dhs Secretary. 10,000 migrants are living under that bridge in Del Rio, texas. N video shows Law Enforcement agencies confronting haitian migrants. Were out front. Questions tonight about this video appearing to show Border Patrol agents confronting refugees aggressively on the rio grande. I dont think anyone seeing that footage would think it was acceptable or appropriate. The conditions under the bridge in Del Rio, texas, a Border Town 150 miles west of San Antonio also raising eyebrows. You have seen anything like this before . No. No. This is a first. Thousands of migrants living in Make Shift huts, sleeping in the dirt, waiting their turn to get processed by u. S. Immigration authorities. A sight Dhs Secretary witnessed today.

Our first stop, an area where from the Air Cnn cameras captured migrants crossing fr freely days earlier. They were crossing to and from the u. S. Via this dam. That is mexico. The. And now the flow stopped. He says this sea of Texas State troopers helps secure the rougher. Just be careful. And moments later, we see the shocking scene under the Del Rio international bridge. Thousands of migrants mostly haitians say officials living in squalor like james who says he left his Home Country for chile in 2015. With his wife and two children. And they started the trek to the united states. You say the route is open. What does that mean, family friends . [ speaking spanish ] the border is open . Si. His Voice Breaks as he talks about his family. Why is it so painful . [ speaking spanish ] because youre suffering. He says food is hard to come by and the weather is tough to bear. If you look closely, youll see that these are men, women, children. I see pregnant women. Infants. Border patrols top cop announcing this weekend a surge of 600 agents, officers, and other personnel. Why Del Rio . Why now . Traditionallies is because of word of mouth. Certainly what happened this time is that number doubled and then tripled relatively quickly. And to expedite processing, removal flights to haiti have increased, says Border Patrol. And word about this is spreading quickly under the bridge. You dont want to return to haiti . Too difficult, you say . Were the immigration Waiting Room into the u. S. Is quickly turning into a gate back to haiti.
