the glamorous actress, almost unrecognizable in a humble t-shirt and shorts. brianna, it's not just this one actress. the same week she was canceled, another actress was erased from the internet similarly and slapped with a $46 million fine for tax evasion. brianna. >> message loud and clear from the chinese government. ivan watson, thank you for that fascinating report. "new day" continues right now. i'm john berman alongside brianna keilar. the search intensifies for the man who came home from a road trip without his fiancee and disappeared before her body was found. as the u.s. races toward a default and another government shutdown, president biden's party fights. damning new accusations that border officials warned months ago of the current surge of migrants, but the administration did nothing. cnn confronts a doctor spreading misinformation about the coronavirus. . >> with the tyranny nipping at our heels, rise up, rise up, rise up! yes! >> she why she is connected to the insurrection at the capitol. ♪ >> all right. welcome to our viewers in the united states and all around the world. it is thursday, september 23rd. the manhunt resumes just a short time from now in this swampy reserve at the home of the only person who might know what happened to gabby petito, her fiancee, brian laundrie. he has not been seen for nearly two weeks. this morning there are new clues about what may have been the final hours of gabby's life. a couple says they witnessed a commotion involving petito and laundrie in a wyoming restaurant last month. it may have been one of the last sightings of gabby before her death. >> laundrie and petito embarked on a cross country trip from blue point, long island to teton, wyoming. laundrie returned to the home in north port, florida, alone. this morning highly trained dive teams are ready to return to the water at carlton reserve in sarasota county. let's bring in hln contributor to talk about what we are seeing. casey, this account from folks who were in this restaurant really not long before it appears gabby petito went missing. what do you make of this in they saw a commotion. they said she was in tears. brian was in and out of the restaurant and kind of giving the hostess a hard time. >> that dustup at the restaurant. this is what is drawing so much attention to this case. we are able to piece together what was going on in the last days of gabby's life. they are out on the sidewalk, screaming at each other. there is a struggle over a cell phone is dramatically like what we see on the police chest cam footage for when they stopped bryan laundrie. after someone called and said they saw brian slapping gabby. we are seeing a different side of brian laundrie than other people are familiar with. even his family may not know what was going on with this fraught, stress-filled relationship behind closed doors. what does that tell you? is that a precursor to something? >> in domestic violence, yes. these patterns of stress and fighting, and especially the physical contact, usually elevate. and what we're seeing with this new information is more and more controlling behavior on behalf of brian. in the police chest cam footage we see him saying to police that he makes sure he keeps the keys to gabby's van. she owns the van. he is afraid she is so emotional she might just lock him out and take off. what and would he do? he has no van, which i doubt. she weeps constantly and takes all the blame, says it's all her fault. she's the aggressor. he is gaslighting her. he is making sure think she has a major health issue, ocd. they met in high school. she's never known any other relationship. they were teens when they met. she lived with him with their parents. you really wonder if she had a life or mind of her own. >> you see this video we are seeing right now and you see manipulation. >> i do. >> not just of gabby petito but also of the police. . >> well, the police handled this very, very well. the only thing that worries me is i don't see them saying we are here because we not a 911 call that said you laid hands on her. >> it seems to me when you watch the video there is an indication that gabby petito would have been the one getting in trouble because the marks were o'brien laundrie. >> correct. >> how are police properly reconciling the 911 call with that visit with them. >> everything got reversed when they pulled them over. gabby is crying uncontrol arably. she just cries all the time, which indicates something very deep seated is going on with her. they separate them. and they talk to brian. he's calm, collected. for those of us who teach domestic violence studies, with he call this a cobra. he is very controlling and manipulative. he looks great. he's the one doing the dance. but when no one is there, there is a strike. we always think they are like pit bulls. what he is doing is saying i'm sorry i was speeding. listen, she was grabbing the steering wheel. when they talk to her, she said answer the questions very carefully because the inference is she's going to be arrested if she answers it wrong. so she takes all of the blame. if she said i want to press charges, they don't have enough proof against either one of them. they're going to have to arrest both of them. i think what the police did was a misstep. by doing that eight-hour cooling off period i think it just amped up the situation. they spent the night apart, probably brian had to get a hotel of his own. when they reconnected the next day, i think that's when everything went downhill. now there was police contact. he hasn't actually dissipated his anger. he's actually more wound up than ever. and we see evidence of that based on the testimony of what happened in the restaurant just a few days later. >> casey jordan, thank you so much for your perspective on this. we'll have much more on this ahead, including we're going to look at a trip to the campground where gabby petito was last seen alive >> great to be here. president biden meeting with key democratic lawmakers at the white house really over the entire day yesterday. different groups of them, trying to break the impasse between moderates and progressives over how to get both this infrastructure deal passed as well as the $3.5 trillion spending bill. while that internal durantic standoff, the president is facing the real threat of the government being able to pay its bills. joining me now is kasie hunt, cnn anchor and dana bash, co-anchor of state of the union. take us inside the room, dana bash. what came of this full day of meetings and where does the situation stand this morning? >> well, i'll tell you what did not come this full day of meetings, resolution. the big reason is because it was so siloed. you had all of the different camps in different meetings. now, the white house says that it's because the president wanted to make sure that he understood what everybody's top line and bottom lines were. i talked to sources frankly some of whom were in the meetings who said why are we doing this at this point when the deadline that the house speaker set because she had negotiations with moderate democrats about getting all of this done. that deadline is monday. why didn't these meetings happen weeks ago? and why aren't they at the point right now where they are all together trying -- take out a piece of paper, pencil and try to figure out where they are. i talked to one person who is familiar with the meeting that the president had with moderates who said what they were trying to do was explain that the progressives who are absolutely committed to $3.5 trillion in the spending for their so-called reconciliation bill for the social safety net issues, they need to talk to the president and say what's the real top line number, meaning how low can they go. progressives are saying that the president, well, you know what, we have already compromised. we wanted to go much higher. so honestly, bree in the intro said the president is the referee. from what i'm hearing in my sources, they want the president not to be the referee. they want him to be an active player in this and get off -- he's obviously not on the sidelines. but really tell people this is what i need from you in order to make not just my agenda work but the democratic agenda, the democratic majority that our voters trusted us with. . >> i will take the metaphor one step further. i think they want him to be the coach, if not the general manager and team owner. they want him to be all those things. casey, steny hoyer said he hopes president biden has special sauce to make this all worse. if they're counting on condiments now they are in real trouble just a few days before this is all resolved. how important is president biden now to making this happen? >> i mean, that is exactly right. it's not going to happen without the president kind of laying out, okay, this is what i want, this is what i need you to do. that's what house leaders i think in particular have been hoping for, rank and file members at the house i've been talking to have been saying that. the president needs to weigh in on this conflict and back and forth. and the reality is that there's just a lack of trust, especially on the part of progressives that they're actually going to follow through on this strategy in the senate and they're going to get what they want if they move forward on this bipartisan infrastructure bill. that of course goes to joe manchin, kiryrsten sinema. it has gotten more personal, which is something democratic leaders have worked hard to tamp down in the past. the question i do have in terms of biden as well, he doesn't have as much familiarity with the house as he does with the senate. he served in the senate many years. dynamics in the house are very different. the house speaker of course is a great partner for him. but it's clear he's counting on his personal relationships here to push this across the finish line. so i think there are a lot of questions about how that's going to play out. >> and if i may, john, add one other thing that i'm hearing, and that is we are so focused, understandably so, on the polls of the democratic caucus. the moderates goes to the furtherest right of the caucus and the progressives goes to the furthest and the left. but the vast majority, particularly the house, is somewhere in the middle in that they're not being told what is going on. they're not being asked for their machine. they're not being told what's going on. there is so much tension and frustration. a talked to a veteran lawmaker who said they have not seen it as tense and people as biting and angry at one another. this is within their own party, as they have ever seen it. in large part from now it's because a lot of those members whose jobs are on the line, who are so-called front liners who may lose their seats, in any event, are not being kept in the dark because leadership doesn't know what's going on but there isn't a lot of communication. a lot of frustration. >> ymoderates are doing it too. using michael coleone to say my offer is this, nothing. progressives are saying my offer is this. nothing. we're past nothing if you don't move here. and joe manchin and kyrsten sinema are doing the same thing, though they don't vocalize it like that. and the question to ask here is really? really? are they willing to accept nothing here, and what will the consequences be? >> nothing is not acceptable for democrats that i have talked to. it is particularly unacceptable for the white house. they have essentially been arguing the white house has had aides on the phone with lawmakers that dana is referring to. i spoke to a couple who have had calls with white house officials where the white house has tried to are he assure them at the end of the day they will be able to figure it out because failure is not an option. but at the same time these members feel like there's not any direction from the white house. and it's not just going to magically work itself out. so it's very clear that -- and democrats have been saying this for months when you ask, hey, isn't that a lot of money? hey, isn't, you know, what exactly are you going to put in this massive thing? isn't raising taxes a little bit risky? they would come back and say it doesn't necessarily matter the details of the imapackage. what matters is democrats are seen solving people's problems. back in july things felt a little bit better. there was kind of a because in some of the coronavirus concerns before the delta variant popped up and made everyone's lives so much more difficult. it was before the chaos in afghanistan. the president had a little bit more political capital then. and it's harder for him to play this role now considering that there are all these questions. and one in particular i want to underscore that i think -- i would be curious if dana is hearing this from members, too, the economy. it has become a major concern for a lot of voters who, you know, are talking to their members of congress or constituent offices. and that's really at the end of the day what is going to sink or make the democratic party sink or swim here. >> absolutely. the economy, inflation, which is why when somebody like joe manchin use that spending $3.5 trillion on a spending bill will increase inflation. that resonates with some. it's why you hear the white house saying it's not going to do that because it's going to pay for it. that's why you are seeing pressure from some -- what used to be traditionally conservative groups, business groups, chamber of commerce and small business groups saying you have to get this done because particularly the original bipartisan infrastructure bill, $1.2 trillion is jobs. it is jobs in districts and states all across this country. and that will help the economy. >> one thing that is interesting before i let you go, dana, you have likened this to obamacare. you had droves of angry, shouting, people -- that's not happening this time. democrats are, to an extent, seeing shadows here. they may be real but it's not like there is a popular uprising on the streets driving this political movement. this is something at this point is intellectual and pushing forward. >> that's exactly right. shadows is such a great way to describe it, john. and the shadow they are seeing is the shadow of 2022 or in the past from 2010. what i mean by that is they don't really think -- and i know, cakasie, you have heard ts as well, it is highly unlikely they will keep the majority in 2022. they need to do the things they promised to do as much as possible and not punt. that's why, even though they are talking so much about this overall spending and maybe not about the details, that's why there's so much frustration. because the details matter. are they going to give dental care to people on medicare. are they going to give people who are caregivers money? are they going to extend the child tax credit. that matters because those are the issues that they believe they ran on and that they have to deliver on. >> they need some of the tangible deliverables. they need people to feel the impact of this bill right now. >> tick tock. the clock is running out. the focus on the gabby petito case is raising awareness for other missing persons cases, specifically among minorities. the family of one man missing for three months pleading for help. he will join us live. and cnn confronts a doctor spreading disinformation about the coronavirus pandemic. >> rise up, rise up, rise up! >> will she face consequences for her off-the-wall comments?

as the gabby petito homicide case garners national attention, another young person has been missing nearly three months, and his family is desperate to find him. 24-year-old daniel robinson was last seen january 23rd leaving buckeye, arizona. his jeep was found in a ravine four miles from where he was last seen. the vehicle appeared to have rolled and landed on its side. daniel's clothes, cell phone, wallet, keys, were all found at the keep. police say foul play is not suspected. but daniel's family says otherwise. joining us is his family. we have daniel's father, david robinson, and his brother roger cauley robinson. thank you for coming on to talk about daniel. i want to start first, david, tell me about your son. >> thank you for bringing us on, brianna. daniel, he's a very outspoken guy. from his childhood. daniel, he's always challenged everything. he challenged his siblings. he wanted to outdo them acade academically. everyone knows he was born without a right hand. he never let anything stop him. he learned how to play the french horn, trombone. when he got into college, he sought out to be a geologist. he pursued his dreams and accomplished those goals, graduated with honors. he also is a friendly guy. he always had friends. at college, i have seen so many of his friends that loved him. daniel is a guy who loved to travel. he spent time with a friend traveling. he loves nature. he liked to do hiking. once he got out here to phoenix, he liked to hike, travel, like i say, see nature. and he loved his career as a geologist. he has a rock collection. he liked to collect rocks. but he's a person that liked to bring people together. even in this moment where he is not here with us, he is bringing everyone together right now. that's the type of person daniel is. >> i will tell you i have been reading about your son, and i have been so impressed by limb and what a special person he clearly is. your baby brother, roger. >> yes. . >> right now authorities are saying that there is no foul play suspected. that's not what your family thinks. tell us about this. >> well, there's too many things that's going on with this case. from the beginning, you know, -- you know, from a family standpoint, daniel, he would never do anything outside of telling his family. the first indication i thought that was very strange with daniel is after six hours, not hearing from him at all, he didn't call his siblings, his mom or myself to let somebody know where you're going. but once daniel became missing, we realized that i think the quick action wasn't there quick enough, first of all. that caused me to have to do my own searching and things like that. but once his vehicle was found and the way it was found, it just didn't look right. it didn't set right with me. i got my own private investigator from that point. everything that was found from that point indicates that, you know, we need to look a little farther than saying he is just missing. >> roger, the buckeye police say that the case remains open and active. they say currently we are consulting outside experts for enhanced analysis of the data from daniel's vehicle. we are also asking anyone with information to please contact investigators. you know, what do you think, roger, about what police are doing and where this investigation into your brother's disappearance, where it stands? >> from what i'm getting from this, i feel that, you know, they're trying to do what's right at this point. but i feel it's a little too late. like my father said, had they been quick about it in the beginning, we wouldn't be here three months later still searching for my brother, still looking for answers. i think my sister that lives in arizona and my father did a lot in the beginning trying to push and get things moving, pleading with the police, you know, begging for them, hey, can you help get a search, can we do an air search, something. and i think the lack of action is leading us here. now they are having to backtrack and try to bring outside sources to help search for my brother. >> you know, roger, i wonder what you think about there is now attention. there is some national attention on your brother. that so infrequently happens in the case of a young missing black man or a young missing white woman. what do you think about that and what needs to happen? >> i think that it's sad that we still have to, you know, think in that way. i will say my parents never raised me and my siblings to believe the world is out to get us. however, there are some very obvious things that happened historically and things that still happen today that's not very great in this country. and it just saddens me that it takes this much, you know, to get people's story out like my brother or anyone else. we shouldn't have to fend on other stories or other cases to push our own story. and we just want answers just like anyone else. i think my brother or everyone else's brother or father, siblings, whoever they may be, they deserve the same attention. >> daniel is a very special person. we hope some more eyeballs on this case might get some more answers for you as you continue your search for him. roger and david, thank you so much for being with us this morning. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. still ahead, cnn is live at the southern u.s. border where migrants can be seen crossing the river right in front of our cameras. and cnn catches up with a doctor who is touring the country and spreading lies about covid. >> asymptomatic spread is not a thing. ge worries?

>> john, these are the unlucky ones. the steady trickle of deportees making their way through the closed gate at the airport. they have been telling us about their despair, shock, their trauma. they are back in a country that is crippled by poverty, social unrest, lack of basic resources, security concerns. and i want quoting the department of homeland security itself when it announced it was giving temporary protected person service. the ones brought here, many did not know as they were put on planes where they were headed. we spoke to one of them yesterday, a man who says he crossed 11 countries passing over the bodies of dead migrants, drinking from the water in which they lay. >> translator: when we arrived tractor trailer u.s., the authorities put us on a bus and sent us to jail and said we would be release indeed two days. they put chains around our stomachs and hands, they put us in cars and took us to the airport. there were haitians working on the plane who told us not to resist because there were many soldiers on the plane and they warned us that otherwise we would be mistreated. >> reporter: now, there's my grants like eddie, asylum seekers who are now back in haiti come through the gate carrying $100 they have been given, a hot meal with a styrofoam plate, and a bag with their measly belongings and led back to the country they fled many years ago but only where the situation has worsened, john. >> melissa and matt, thank you for the important reports. up next, we'll talk to a high school principal in texas who says he is getting pushed out because of his views on race. cnn retraces what may have been some of gabby petito's last moments alive. >> this clearing could be where that van was parked certainly based on the distance we have been given. how much money can liberty mutual save you?

americans do. and whose tax dollars does big pharma use to develop those same drugs? that's right. our tax dollars. it's a big pharma scam. they get rich and we get ripped off. and it's why pharma is spending millions on lies and scare tactics to stop a plan that lets medicare negotiate lower prices. congress, stop the big pharma scam. let medicare negotiate lower prices. in 2016, i was working at the amazon warehouse when my brother passed away. and a couple of years later, my mother passed away. after taking care of them, i knew that i really wanted to become a nurse. amazon helped me with training and tuition. today, i'm a medical assistant and i'm studying to become a registered nurse. in filipino: you'll always be in my heart. the new sensodyne repair and protect with deep repair has the science to show that the toothpaste goes deep inside the exposed dentin to help repair sensitive teeth. my patients are able to have that quality of life back. i recommend sensodyne repair and protect with deep repair. new projects means new project managers. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed you do. when you sponsor a job, you immediately get your shortlist of quality candidates, whose resumes on indeed match your job criteria. visit indeed.com/hire and get started today. a texas high school principal is speaking out this morning after the school district's board of trustees took steps toward not renewing his contract. james whitfield is the first black principal outside dallas. whitfield says he's been pulled into the frenzy over critical race theory after a former school board candidate publicly accused him of having, quote, extreme views on race and promoting a, quote, conspiracy theory of systemic racism. the school board, however, says critical race theory has nothing to do with the steps they're taking. joining us now is principal james whitfield and his attorney david henderson. thank you so much for being with us. why is it that you think you're being pushed from your job? >> good morning, john and brianna. thank you so much for having us on. you know, it's really difficult to understand why it is i'm being pushed in such a way. all i've done is tried to create a space where all students, regardless of their race, ethnicity, you know, religion, sexual orientation, i've tried to create a space where all students feel safe to come to school, and for some -- for some people that is not what school is supposed to be in their point of view. and so i can't help but think because of my unapologetic stance in regards to that that is why we are here today. everything they have to say is against inclusion and diversity and equity. they have a problem with those words and so i'm unapologetic in my stance towards advocating for those things and i believe that is why we're here. >> after the death of george floyd, you wrote an email to the community that said i encourage us all not to grow weary in the battle against systemic racism, commit to being an anti-racist, well, there are great obstacles to face, please know i am with you on this journey. that's the only writing of yours really that i could find here. just to be clear, did you try to institute teaching on literal critical race theory in the curriculum at your school? >> absolutely not. what we teach here in the state of texas is the texas essential knowledge and skills. teachers, they have the curriculum based on that, and essentially why i crafted that message to go out to the community, after the murder of george floyd, in the streets of minneapolis, i've watched people around me, i've watched people in our communities surrounding us, you know, they were speaking out against this atrocity. and here in the dallas-ft. worth metroplex we had a murder of breonna taylor. we had all these tragic things happen to black people. and i knew that i have people in our school, in our community, i was just transitioning from a middle school principal to a high school principal, so i had two different staffs that were dealing with transition. there are students of color who are seeing these tragedies play out on a national scale. and i just felt called to say something. i saw people coming together in ways that i had never seen before in my life and i was inspired to craft that letter and say that i see you, we see what's going on and i'm here to work with you to make basically try to make the world a better place. and at that time there was no concern about that letter, quite the contrary, i got nothing but positive feedback. >> that's not a call to teach critical race theory. as you say, there is no specific example of you trying to forston the c force it on the curriculum or what not. the other side of that is that the administration says they're not why they're pushing you out. reasons they're pushing you out has nothing to do with this. the way this has been portrayed nationally is principal gets fired for critical race theory. that's not what you were doing. that's not why they say they're doing it. let me play the sound that came from the monday school board meeting so their explanation for why they want you out. >> as this has played out in the media as a racial issue, many people have been hurt and confused and for that reason i will say this clearly. this recommendation is not about dr. whitfield's race, it is not about pictures of dr. whitfield, it is not about critical race theory, it is not about certain individuals in our community calling for his resignation or his firing. >> so the board claims that there were performance issues, performance issues you were informed of over the year and unresponsive to. what do you say to that? >> so, here's what i'll say to that. you know, prior to july 26th, when the board of trustees allowed an individual to get up and say my name in open forum against the rules of open forum and air these baseless grievances, they allowed people in the gallery to yell, fire him, call for my termination. prior to that there is no mention of a nonrenewal of my contract. and honestly, it's really off base to be talking about a nonrenewal of a contract in september for the upcoming school year. and so if there is no issue prior to that, there is no mention of a nonrenewal of contract prior to july 26th, but then yet here almost two months later that's what we're talking about, i think they're underestimating the intelligence of the broader community, and, you know, you can't disconnect the two in my book. of course they're not going to come out and say it is about my race or it is about critical race theory or it is about those individuals. they're not going to come out and say that, but i think most people are rational minded enough to look at the events and how they have played out and see what this is really about. >> counselor, david, what is the next step here for you? >> well, john, they have left us with no choice but to appeal their decision. if we don't, then dr. whitfield is effectively fired despite what they said in the press. it is never good to forecast what you intend to do in court before you've actually done it, but rest assured we're not the people you come to when you're trying to avoid a conflict. >> we appreciate you being with us. dr. whitfield, principal, appreciate your time. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you. "new day" continues right now. good morning to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. i'm brianna keilar alongside john berman. and it is thursday, september 23rd. there are dive teams returning to the water today near the florida home of brian laundrie. gabby petito's fiance has not been seen for two weeks since returning from their road trip alone. a large van and a boat from the sarasota county sheriff's office arrived midday wednesday at a swampy 25,000 acre reserve, where laundrie told his parents he was headed last week. after four days now of searching, there is still no sign of him. >> this morning, new clues about what may have been the final hours of gabby's life. a couple says they witnessed an incident involving petito and laundrie in a restaurant. they report seeing a commotion that had petito visibly upset. cnn's randi kaye piecing together witness accounts to retrace gabby's final hours. >> so this may have been how gabby petito and her fiance brian laundrie drove their van to enter the spread creek dispersed camping area. we're about 28 miles outside of jackson, wyoming. we just turned off highway 191 and we're driving now on forest road 30290. and if you take a look, you can see the road is a gravel road and it stretches for miles into the campsite. remember, video blogger jen bethune and her husband kyle captured this video of a van they believed was gabb
