joni ernst clearly doesn't care. why would you vote for joni ernst after that? i don't know.again. >> will: i saw you talk about that earlier this week talking about the successful nature or the lack of successful nature of resituating refugees not just in the united states but across europe as well. it's been a real hit and miss operation across the globe. here's the thing. you talked about this, tucker, you said look, americans have a big heart. we want to help out. how do we walk this line? there is this sense that we do owe these people who helped us out in a time of war, we do owe them something. how do we balance what we might owe them to what we owe ourselves in terms of our country, our safety, and all the values that voters care about? >> tucker: well, i mean, first, identify the people to whom we really do owe something and then make the case. i mean, not all pashtuns are the same. just because you are from afghanistan doesn't mean you helped the united states or you are a hero. maybe joni ernst could head over to kabul and personally screen these people. maybe pete

on some of those refugees, i was senator joni ernst yesterday was on abc's "this week," and talked aboutre of some of those refugees.

senator joni ernst says that this withdraw is very rapid and, in fact, shameful.ality. not just for the united states but for some of our partners around the world to see afghanistan fall like this. it is all on president biden's shoulders. this rapid and haphazard withdrawal of american troops to allow it to fall like this without any sort of plan or recourse, it is shameful. we have women, girls that are being threatened by the taliban. others that are being killed by the taliban. we know that there are many other violent extremist organizations that are reconstituting in afghanistan as we speak. this is sincere tragedy for everyone. lawrence: will, we are going to be talking about this all morning some of the division on this is a lot of americans want to go. the a lot of the politicians want to leave. look at this and lucas alluded to in this is religious doctrine they are sunnies and hardliners and also believe in sharia law. they are trying to reimplement it and damage being done. many people asking what was the original strategy to begin with? was it to def
