Partially reinstate President Trumps travel ban policy. It will consider the president s broad immigration powers this fall. They will impose the band with the exception that it may not be enforced against foreign nationals. President trump tweeting that he was grateful for the decision. Sean spicer on the president s behalf, said this. With respect to the Supreme Court decision on the executive order, the president was honored by the 90 decision to use an important tool to protect the homeland. His number one responsibility is to keep the people safe and thats what this executive order does. Eboni summer calling this a potential victory for President Trump, rumors are swirling around Justice Anthony kennedys possible retirement from the Supreme Court. If Justice Kennedy were to retire, that means President Trump would nominate his second Supreme Court justice in six months. I have long held that as much legislation as the president can put out, what will define his legacy is the Supreme Court picks. Eric this could be the second one now. If kennedy decides to stay another year, it will be the second pick in the year. He will have to go, possibly three if Ruth Bader Ginsburg decides to step down at some point in the next eight years. This decision is a win for donald trump. The high Court Vacated or at least is going to put aside two lower courts estimations that it was unconstitutional. Its a big win for trump, a wakeup call to be liberals that the Supreme Court has moved to centerright, which we knew was going to happen with a trump presidency. It will continue to move right, reminding the world the presidency is number one charged with keeping america safe. The travel ban will do that and it seems its constitutional. Eboni i dont know if i agree, eric. Lisa boothe, your take on it. Lisa could move further to the right. That was the smartest thing President Trump did in the election was released a list of potential Supreme Court nominees he would choose because this is what galvanized the Republican Base for him. If you look at the exit polling, one fifth of the voters had the Supreme Court was the number one issue. 5740 , its a huge issue during the campaign. In regard to the travel pause, its a big win for the presiden president. Eboni i like that. Travel pause. Lisa President Trump has couched this as a National Security issue and it seems that serene court agrees with him, in part the statement they said that tips in favor of the government compelling to provide for the nations National Security. Seems like they agree with President Trump. Eboni lets meet todays specialists. Hes the father of five daughters. He must be busy. Secretary of state of canvas and the vice chair of the president ial commission on election integrity. Appointed by President Trump. He specializes in full hunting. Kris kobach is here. Hes the former director of the afghanistan Legal Education project. And a political pundit and specializes in everything foreign policy. Ari aramesh is here. Thank you for being here. I want to start with you, kris. Eric says this is the court moving to the right. This is a 90 decision. We dont see those all that often. Im going to give you my birdseye view. I dont know if its a conservative or a rightleaning move by the court as much as its a legal nobrainer that the president enjoys Broad Authority on these issues of immigration. Kris i used to teach constitutional law. 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 90. 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 the country. Its a big victory for the president is another big point, for the country as well. One thing ive written about is our Refugee Program has become a conduit for terrorists. Since the original World Trade Center attacks in 93. Eboni ari mother have been examples of that for their refugees just taking safe haven. Whats your take . Ari there is a statutory argument for the court has done but there is a clause in the immigration and naturalization act that the court is going to decide. You cannot discriminate or use preferential treatment based on National Origin in place of birth. Thats a statutory argument. Eboni thats one of the reasons that christian minorities was taken out for 2. 0. Ari places a burden, targeting their place of birth and National Origin. There are constitutional elements to due process, equal protection and the establishment clause. The bigger scheme of things is this. Lets go back 65 years ago. Can you imagine not admitting Albert Einstein . Not admitting people who were deemed to be troublemakers, outside educators to this country . Eric its a temporary travel ban while we figure out our our vetting system is so we can reopen the immigration status refuges and people want to come on visas who are trying to make it a safer place. We are not saying no, Albert Einstein and the likes cant come here. He is trying to santa were positive we can close low pools in the vetting system close loopholes in the vetting system, we are going to posix. Ari trying to appeal to hardline elements in the pottery. The travel ban is not going to solve the issues. It eric its not a ban. Ari if someone is in crisis supervisor, someone can live through the interviews. Lisa there are a lot of americans are concerned with the fact that you have attorney general session saying there are 300 refugees and active fbi investigations for terrorist related activities or concerns. These countries are either safe harbors of terrorism or state sponsors of terrorism. There are americans who were generally concerned. Eboni i am one of those people outside the base. [laughter] and i have a real concern about National Security. Some of the argument is this travel ban doesnt necessarily make us safer. Thats what i believe the Fourth Circuit determined. But if the president can make the argument this is truly a National Security issue, then i dont think i agree with you, theres not much challenge thats going to circumvented. When i see from the court, the burden has shifted. This will not be about the president proving its National Security interests. It will be about opposition. They are going to have to prove its discriminatory in its intent. Eric he doesnt have to prove hes going to be right. Eboni thats what i said. Eric it is constitutional. Eboni the burden has shifted. The opposition will have to prove it has discriminatory intent. Kris in legal terms, the burden hasnt shifted but in practical terms. They know the Supreme Court is skeptical. On the statutory argument, the president has clear authority. The Fourth Circuit said you have to show its good for the country to us on the judiciary. Doesnt say that president has to make a showing to anybody. Its in his view as chief executive, is it safe for the country . Eric dont lose sight of the fact that it was a 90 victory for trump. Ari its not a 90 zero judgment thats going to be binding. Three of the most conservative justices, they dissented. They wanted to say its over. Give the president carte blanche. These opinions are about a paragraph or two, this was a 16 page decision or nonbinding decision. That means its a complex issue. Eric at least three liberal judges did not vote against. Eboni to my point, i dont think eric in place for now. Eboni i dont think its them being further to the right. Its not that political of an issue. Eric how do you explain the ninth circuit and Fourth Circuit . Eboni for them it was but the high court is being a little better than that. Kris i would add its not a political thing the administration did issuing this ban in january. If you look at syria, the Previous Administration have been granting 93 of syrian refugee applications at the same time that socalled fake refugees detonating bombs in europe and driving vehicles and people in europe. Clearly 93 was too high. We have to figure out a way of separating out their true refugees from those who are claiming refugee status. Lisa it has been a political issue. Its a cornerstone of the Resistance Movement because its emblematic to them of racism, xenophobia, whatever else the president has been accused of. This has become a political Battle Ground and i think that adds to the heaviness of this and whatever the Supreme Court decision ends up being. Eric we have a Refugee Program problem. Once we vet them, 18 224 months, we let them come in and we dont follow them once they are simulated into whatever society, community. They are free to go. A period of time where we keep an eye on it, maybe a year. Depends on the case. And then we let them go. That scares me. 120 days moratorium is not a bad idea to make sure we want to do that. Ari i am all for vetting. My parents and i moved to this country. We waited for a green card. We came here, and look at where i am now. Eboni on fox news. Thats good. [laughs] ari exactly, look at the facts. When immigrants or refugees leave syria to go to europe, all they have to do is cross a nonexistent European Union border and they get to the European Union. We dont have that problem here. We have two oceans protecting us. Eric there is four size. 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 to the fabric of the country. We have to make sure we stop people at the front end where there is any question all that this person isnt really a refugee. They are using the Refugee Program as a cloak. Eboni we have a vetting problem, i agree. I look forward to remedying that. Coming up, Congressional Budget Office releases numbers on the g. O. P. Health care bill. Later, looks like there will be a troop increase in afghanistan for and what does it mean for isis . Nothing good, thats for sure. There is a shot of the rose garden where President Trump is expected to make a statement soon. We will keep an eye on it. We will be right back. Are upgrading their watere filter to zerowater. Start with water that has a lot of dissolved solids. Pour it through britas twostage filter. Dissolved solids remain what if we filter it over and over . Oh dear. Thank goodness zerowaters fivestage filter gets to all zeroes the first time. So maybe its time to upgrade. Get more out of your water. Get zerowater. vo living with ammonia odor . Not a pretty picture. vo luckily, tidy cats lightweight with new ammonia blocker tackles tough odor, even ammonia. So long stankface vo ammonia like that . Theres a tidy cats for that. When this bell rings. It starts a chain reaction. Thats heard throughout the connected business world. At t Network Security helps protect business, from the largest Financial Markets to the smallest transactions, by sensing cyberattacks in near real time and automatically deploying countermeasures. Keeping the world of business connected and protected. Thats the power of and. And its also a story mail aabout people and while we make more ecommerce deliveries to homes than anyone else in the country, we never forget. That your business is our business the United States postal service. Priority you eric you are looking at a live shot of the rose garden at the white house. President trump is expected any minute. Hes going to make a few remarks. We promise to go right to the rose garden estimate as he approaches the microphone. In the meantime, a short time ago, Congressional Budget Office released its score on the Senate Health care bill. The cbo estimated roughly 22 million more people could be without Health Insurance in the next decade. That is 1 million fewer uninsured than the house bill estimated. Lawmakers were awaiting the score before making a decision with the bill could still face an uphill battle with the july. Senators are taking a strong stance. The plan acknowledges we are going to have a death spiral which is sicker and sicker people in the individual market and Healthy People dont buy insurance. They put over 100 billion in bailout money to try to say were going to tamp down prices. We are going to acknowledge the problem will continue and were going to pile taxpayer money in it. Thats not a conservative notion. Eric there are others more confident the bill will garner enough support to pass before the congressional recess. What we are trying to do is thread a needle and make it so that as the president says, every single american needs to be able to have access to the kind of coverage they want, ensuring preexisting illnesses are covered, ensuring there are no lifetime caps, that individuals have the kind of choices that are necessary to that the system is responsive to people, to patients, not responsive to government. Eric also in the cbo scoring, besides the 20 million uninsured, there was a massive drop in the debt, the budget will see 321 billion in reduced debt over the course of ten years. Premiums will initially go up but then severely go down in 2026. Planned parenthood is defunded for a year and there is a lot of tax relief. There are some for both. Eboni i was hoping frankly after seven years from the republicans campaigning on this and making promises to the american people, and you know how i feel about obamacare. I dont like it. I was optimistic and hopeful that something would bring premiums down. Im not overly excited about the increase, and then to come back down. I will believe it when i see it. 33 lisa, your thoughts. Lisa i think its going to be tough for republicans. They are ultimately going to get something done in the senate but you can only lose two. Its more difficult to get it passed in the senate then the house. Senators hold a lot of power. We have seen at least five different holdouts that are going to try to extract something from the conversations. There was a reason why Mitch Mcconnell released it as a discussion draft because he knew there was going to have to be some give and take done. I think republicans are looking at what happened from democrats. I was at the nrc seen during the 2010 election cycle. Obamacare, they were showing it cost democrats at the polls. Same thing in 2014, 2016. Seems to be a big political issue for democrats. Weighing the elements of it. Eric they have two to lose. Do they lose two . Ari its not going to go through. Theres five people. This is the conservative wing of the party. A whole host of moderates are going to have a problem with it. You havent heard from the lady from maine. We have to hear from olympia snowe. Moderates are going to have a problem. Conservatives have a problem with it. 22 million are not going to have insurance. Its going to be bad for people with preexisting conditions. Its going to be bad for people who are older and sick. The president made a clear promise during the campaign. He said if you have everybody is going to get covered. Everybodys going to get great coverage and preexisting conditions are going to be covered. What it shows us is that after seven years of republican promises, the Republican Party is not very good at governing, and thats a problem. Eric kris, one thing to consider, the alternative is keeping obamacare. A lot of republicans say we dont want our constituents to keep it. The cbo projected 24 million would be covered under obamacare. Only 11 million were covered. Kris i see that cbo score is a shot in the arm for the bill. Senate republicans are thinking i have seen the house bill. Not sure i like it for then they see the senate bill and they learned that it results and 1 million fewer uninsured and saved 200 billion more than the house built us. They can say to their constituents the senate bill is better. The other thing you have to remember is these five republicans whove gone out on the limb and said w
