Appearing on Tuesday's New Day, liberal Daily Beast contributor and recurring CNN guest Dean Obeidallah went ballistic after a fellow guest and Donald Trump supporter recalled that Khizr Khan has a history of ties to the Clintons as the immigration expert was an employee of the law firm Hogan Lovells LLP, which not only has represented the Clinton Foundation but also worked on immigration cases involving the controversial EB-5 visa program.

After former South Carolina Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer recalled Khan's connections to the Clintons, the two got into a heated debate as Obeidallah incredulously accused the Trump supporter of "smearing" Khan by merely introducing his links to the Clintons into the political conversation.

At 8:30 a.m. ET, Bauer brought up Khan's ties to the Clintons:

Mr. Khan worked for the Clintons. There is a direct connection. Nobody wants to engage in that because of the loss of a child, which is a terrible thing, but again, he is continuing to push this, too. He is making it political, and there is a bigger tie to the Clintons. He's worked for them. He's worked for the EB-5 program, which is controversial.

The South Carolina Republican added:

Senator Grassley even pointed out there are inconsistencies and really not checks and balances in a program that's let too many folks in that are questionable, individuals that probably should never have been allowed in our country.

When it was Obeidallah's turn to speak, he fumed:

Well, I mean, this is a continued smear of the Khan family, sir, and you should be better than that, frankly. I'm going to be blunt with you. You should be. The Khan family, Mr. Khan was talking about his son. Donald Trump egged this on. Donald Trump, the thin-skinned man who is narcissistic-

After Bauer injected, "Well, tell me what I did to smear him. What did I say that smeared him?" the Daily Beast contributor shot back: "You just went after his character."

The two then went back and forth for the next minute with Obeidallah insisting that recalling Khan's ties to the Clintons amounted to "smearing" his "character."
