Judge vacates desertion conviction.

https://nypost.com/2019/10/15/mark-alle ... at-46/amp/

One of the brave soldiers who helped search for the AWOL Bowe Bergdahl and was wounded and paralyzed during the search has died from his injuries at 46 years of age.

RIP, my condolences to his brave family.

If you remember he was traded for the release of senior Talaban fighters by the former President, some of whom have reentered the fight.

Gitmo terrorists released for Bergdahl have joined Taliban in Quatar.

Apparently Bowe wants his medals and $300,000 in back pay. I just assumed Obama had already given him all that stuff at the White House Rose Garden.

His defense attorney was very good. After the trial he denounced Trump and made statements that made his client sound like some kind of hero. Yes he will write a book and no doubt become a hero to the left.

Sometimes a judge and a good defense attorney can achieve a result like this. However, I suspect some jail would have been better for this man.

I am going to go out on a limb and predict, he will die by his own or another's hand within two years. He would be safer in jail.

Bowe a free man no prison time.

Did Obama know that his parents caused the desertion, when he had his rose garden event?

He lost an entire decade of his life.

Pleads guilty to desertion. May be sentenced to life.

Bergdahl says he is insulted to be called a traitor.

Bo your a traitor.

Some kind of Serial Podcast. Bowe Bergdahl gives an interview and talks about his adventure. He compared himself to Jason Bourne.

Apparently he hasn't been sentenced yet and his attorney ok'd this interview and broadcast.

Considering the type of Federal Government we have today, maybe he will get a medal before its all over.

If I was his attorneys, I would want him to be sentenced before the next President takes office so that the current President can pardon him.

Just so you know, I don't believe Oswald acted alone.

This is an article on Michael Hastings. He died in a car accident a few years ago. It made a lot of news at the time as he was a writer for the Rolling Stone. He had an expose' on the General in who had to resign from the CIA because of an affair. Many thought he could have been targeted or was being chased by someone when he had the car accident. The reports showed he had been drinking.

What I did not know at the time was he was one of the writers who wrote a big expose' on Bowe Bergdahl being a traitor. The FBI apparently was investigating him because of this.

FBI investigates death threats against family.

Told a friend I didn't understand why Obama did what he did. I didn't see an up side for him.

Friend replied. Obama promised to shut down Guantanamo in his campaign. Feels its part of his deal with the voters.

He started with the five worst guys to get us used to the idea and got our guy back as a bonus.

Rest of them to come later as we are now conditioned.

"An Obama official decided to take the slander hurled at those who served with Bergdahl who have chosen to speak out to another level. On Twitter, Brandon Friedman, who is the deputy assistant secretary of public affairs at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, accused Bergdahl’s platoon members of ‘smearing him publicly’ because they are psychopaths. "

Sorry I could not transfer the actual tweet but it does say "psychopaths short on leadership"

Nice.

A rush to judgement, per a Missouri Senator. ( I think this is the lady that got her job because the Republican candidate said a woman can prevent pregnancy after rape and then refused to let someone else run)

Bergdahl is being "swiftboated" by the soldiers in his platoon per the White House.

Yeah go ahead, dishonor the soldiers who honorably served our country.

November cannot come quick enough.

His hometown has cancelled his welcoming parade. Cannot afford the security required now due to all the protests that were planned.

I guess what I am most puzzled about is, why?

What was the motivation to get this guy released now and not maybe a year before Obama leaves office?

Failing health? Didn't seem so from the video today.

I can see Obama at the end of his presidency wanting to tie up loose ends, form a legacy. He got the only US soldier captive on his watch, released.

But now, under such bad terms, without notifying congress, violating the law? It seems to make no sense.

They also could have just quietly did it, especially considering the negative aspects of the soldiers departure. They didn't need to publicize it, not have a White House photo op with the wacko dad. No reason for Susan Rice to get up and lie to everyone again.

Most of the dumb stuff they do seems to have a liberal, left wing, anti freedom, anti constitution, pro communist motive.

Here, there seems to be no upside.

Are they now going to pressure the joint chiefs to not court marshal him? That will come out if they do. Otherwise, he's going to be court marshaled and get a lengthy prison term, that's going to make great press.

What happens when one of the Guantanamo guys pulls off some big terror plot, the bad press from that will be hard to control. What happens when the Taliban starts actively trying to kidnap US soldiers or citizens and gets another one.

I'm just completely dumb founded.
