How inhumane can we be. >> it means to left-hand as point people that are fleeing some of the worst savagery in the world right now are just barred. that is now in effect. >> even in conservative leadership years ago used to be proud that the u.s. was a country that welcomed refugees. the bush administration had a refugee program for iraqis fleeing the war that unfortunately we started there. but its just a sign of the times that the trump administration, the republican party have abandoned this...

Isis linked militants in the philippines should be a wake-up call for the entire region. we have been seeing this. we see isis being pushed out in some places only to pop up here in south asia. >> eric: let me take a little different tack. that sounded horrible. its actually good news for the united states that isis is saying we are looking to asia, looking to expand into areas we havent been before. instead of saying we are focusing -- remember a year ago they were saying we are going to infilt...

All somalians. as you may know the u.s. has people inside somalia. we have diplomats and soldiers inside somalia fighting terrorists. they are working with somalians. if they counter good people who are helping them and brave and putting their life on the line and they cant have the option to put them through a refugee program to dom back through america when they have helped america fight terrorists it doesnt make sense. too broad. >> tucker: you are making this up on the spot. >> no, im not. i...

And, by the way, we are also banning people from countries like syria. we also have american soldiers who are serving in harms way. they have syrians who are helping them. they might want to put those syrians through a refugee program because they risked their lives to help america. its too broad. >> grandmas and grandpas and 3-year-old kids. >> tucker: you are trying to outshout me here. but you raise the sector of the u.s. government keeping the yards out. whatever group has fought with americ...

There is a north and south they can walk right across. >> ari: 18 to 24 months pair they have to go through dod interview, department of homeland security interview. >> eric: coming through the southern border? >> kris: there is a refugee program. a lot of people claim asylum, they come across the mexican border and they are smuggled in. once they are here, they claim asylum and its very similar standard, similar program. you get the same benefits of the refugee and they can just disappear and t...

Days. why would you not want the process to be as strong as possible. >> ari: we should ask questions, do background checks. a wholesale ban is un-american. >> kris: every time you go to refugee program, its a long interview. >> ari: refugees make great immigrants. they assimilate better because they know they will never go back. >> eboni: we have to wrap but we will circle back when we return. we have a special surprise for eric bolling. stay with us. n-no, no sir you ever wanna dance on a real...

I think the argument against the ban was weak. the statutory argument on the ban is a weak one too. i am not surprised it is 9-0. and i would point out something some people havent caught onto. the supreme court wont hear the case until october and they wont decide until november at the earliest. the 90 days, full 120 days is going to go. it might be almost moot. the exception the court carved out was almost already in the executive order in the first place. in 2.0 and 1.0. people with family in...

Hillary clinton, she was going to quadruple the refugee progra program. she wanted to do 400,000 or 500,000. >> ari: over ten years. >> eric: no, no, absolutely wrong. she wanted to quadruple the refugee program. >> ari: we precleared them. its not as if they were going to get on a plane, 150,000 next weekend. >> eboni: you said earlier you believe in vetting. then the question becomes, if you believe in it and we all agree in it, how do you reconcile that with what we know to be very challengin...

Not even what you said as a president. >> heres the thing. were talking about something that needs to be bifurcated here. you can have questions what he meant as a candidate. what we dough -- what we do no constitutionally -- >> donald trump is very clear about where he stood on this. people voted for him. courts may not like that. but its the facts. you cant -- to deny that is to undermine our self-government. >> one other thought here. a lot of what -- our refugee program is a completely separ...

>> we have been frustrated with this issue for years. we asked the obama administration to deal with the vetting process. had refugees from terrorist like countries come into our state. weve know nothing about them. we actually filed a lawsuit about this and we were told that the federal government has control over the issue. now that someone is actually doing something about it, the president now settled there is a limitation on who has the ability to do that. >> when you said you have these pe...
