Eric Greitens: Put In Place a Plan to Actually Screen These Refugees
“Americans are a compassionate people, but we can’t bring refugees in right now because this administration has not only no plan to fight ISIS, but we have no plan to screen refugees. We have always been a land of liberty for those people who are fleeing from tyranny, but in order for us to do that, the president has to have a plan in place to actually screen refugees for their ties to radical Islamic terrorists.”
-Eric Greiten’s plan to better screen Syrian refugees entering the US
Former Navy SEAL and Republican candidate for Missouri Governor Eric Greitens called into Kilmeade & Friends to discuss how to destroy ISIS by using immediate airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, coordinating intelligence with our allies, taking out terrorist leadership, and destroying logistical infrastructure. Plus, Greitens proposes what the US needs to do in order to better screen Syrian refugees before allowing them into our country.
Listen here:
Eric Greitens on whether or not we should allow Syrian refugees into our country:
You’re running to be the next governor of Missouri. Where would you stand, with the other 26 governors that said ‘I will not accept any refugees’?
“Absolutely, Brian. I have worked with refugees. I have worked with refugees in Bosnia, I have worked with refugees in Rwanda, but this president’s own FBI director has said that this administration doesn’t have the capacity to actually screen these refugees for ties to radical Islamic terrorists. Americans are a compassionate people, but we can’t bring refugees in right now because this administration has not only no plan to fight ISIS, but we have no plan to screen refugees. We have always been a land of liberty for those people who are fleeing from tyranny, but in order for us to do that, the president has to have a plan in place to actually screen refugees for their ties to radical Islamic terrorists.”
Kilmeade: So right now would you hit pause on them entering into our country?
Greitens: Yes, right now you have to hit pause. What you have to do is, let’s get this right, Brian. Let’s put in place a plan to fight ISIS, let’s win this war. And at the same time you’ve got to put in place a plan to actually screen these refugees.
