In 2014, President Obama gleefully pounded his chest over his ill-advised negotiation with the Taliban to release five hardened Taliban leaders in exchange for the life of “prisoner of war” Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl.
After being released by the Taliban in May 2014, the U.S. Army has now charged Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl with desertion.Bergdahl left a note behind in this tent saying that he left to find a better life, before deserting his post at the base he was deployed at in eastern Afghanistan in 2009.
Bergdahl was subsequently captured by Taliban fighters in 2009, and supposedly held against his will for 5 years.

Prior to Bergdahl deserting his post, he expressed his concerns and disapproval of the U.S. war against radical Islam.
Now a White House petition has been posted urging President Obama to seek the death penalty for Bergdahl for 6 U.S. servicemen who died during military operations that were conducted to locate the missing Bergdahl.“The future is too good to waste on lies… “And life is way too short to care for the damnation of others, as well as to spend it helping fools with their ideas that are wrong. I have seen their ideas and I am ashamed to even be American.” -Bowe Bergdahl (Rolling Stone)
Florida Congressman Ron DeSantis (R), who is the Chairman of the Subcommittee on National Security, and a Naval Reserve Officer, called out President Obama’s action of negotiating the release of “five seasoned Taliban Islamic terrorists” as being harmful to the national security of the United States.
“President Obama’s release of five seasoned Taliban terrorists harmed the national security of the United States. The Obama administration deceptively lionized the service record of Bowe Bergdahl as a way to distract from the gravity of releasing such hardened terrorists, and it was the outcry from Bergdahl’s unit members that demonstrated the problems with the Obama narrative. Deserting during wartime is an extremely serious offense and Bergdahl’s conduct needs to be judged at a court-martial.” –Rep. Ron DeSantis (R)
