President Donald Trump claims there are new “clues” in the ongoing search for Today cohost Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy.
“I’ll give you a little statement — I think we’re doing very well in that regard,” Trump, 79, said while speaking to reporters on Air Force One on Friday, February 6. “You’d be surprised to hear that. I think we’re doing 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.”
The president continued, “I’m not talking about a search, I’m talking about a solution. We have some things that will maybe come out reasonably soon from [the] DOJ or FBI or whoever that could be — could be definitive. A lot has taken place in the last couple of hours. A lot of things have happened in regard to that horrible situation in the last couple of hours.”
Nancy, 84, was first reported missing on Sunday, February 1, after she failed to appear at church service. She was last seen on Saturday, January 31, by her daughter and Savannah’s sister, Annie. She is described as 5-foot-5 and 150 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes. The case is being investigated as a crime.
“Something unusual at that house occurred that made us go, ‘Wow, something’s wrong here. Something doesn’t fit,’” Pima Country Sheriff Chris Nanos exclusively shared with Us Weekly on Monday, February 2. “We’re gonna pull all the stops and go at all angles. We really do hope it’s a search-and-rescue mission and we find her and she’s safe and sound. But it would be unjust if we didn’t look at what’s in front of us and go, ‘We need to act.’”

Nanos added at the time, “This is an 84-year-old lady who is safe in her own home asleep, and she is taken. And that should never happen.”
The family has also acknowledged the existence of various ransom notes in connection with their mother’s missing person’s case, including a “new message” addressed by the FBI on Friday.
“The FBI and County Sheriff’s Department are aware of a new message regarding Nancy Guthrie,” Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said in a statement via X. “Investigators are actively inspecting the information provided in the message for its authenticity.”
“We live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her,” Savannah said while flanked by her siblings, sister Annie and brother Camron, in a social media video, speaking to her mother’s would-be abductors directly.
President Donald Trump is weighing in on the high-profile disappearance of Nancy Guthrie, the mother of Today show host Savannah Guthrie. “I think it’s terrible,” Trump, 79, told reporters inside the White House Oval Office on Tuesday, February 3. “I’m gonna call her later on,” the president added of Savannah, 54. “I think it’s a […]
In the wake of Nancy’s terrifying disappearance, the president has promised Savannah and her family that the federal government is “deploying all resources” to assist the ongoing search.
“I spoke with Savannah Guthrie, and let her know that I am directing ALL Federal Law Enforcement to be at the family’s, and Local Law Enforcement’s, complete disposal, IMMEDIATELY,” Trump wrote via his social media platform Truth Social on Wednesday, February 4. “We are deploying all resources to get her mother home safely.”
The FBI is currently offering a $50,000 reward for any information that leads to Nancy’s recovery and/or the arrest and conviction of anyone involved.
