What a complete and total disgrace. Deserter Bowe Bergdahl who walked into the open arms of the terrorist Taliban group will see NO jail time for his desertion, which lead to the killing of at least 6 American soldiers. The Obama scum are still scattered around, even military judges. Justice is supposed to be blind. But Obama’s buddy Bergdahl gets off with nothing more than a slap on the wrist. Hillary Clinton still isn’t being investigated, Harvey Weinstein and pedo Kevin Spacey haven’t been taken into custody by the police and the Podesta brothers are still free “men.” Yea, justice is blind alright, blind to liberal Democrat crimes.

President Trump tweeted Friday the sentence handed down to Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl — a dishonorable discharge, but no prison time for leaving his post in June 2009 — was a “complete and total disgrace.”
More than eight years after Bergdahl walked off his base in Afghanistan — and unwittingly into the clutches of the Taliban — Bergdahl walked out of a North Carolina courtroom a free man Friday. Bergdahl, who pleaded guilty to endangering his comrades, was fined, reduced in rank to E1 and dishonorably discharged — but he received no prison time.
Bergdahl pleaded guilty Oct. 16. The judge has wide discretion on sentencing because he didn’t strike a deal with prosecutors to limit his punishment. A bad conduct or dishonorable discharge would deprive Bergdahl of most or all his veterans’ benefits.
The 31-year-old soldier from Hailey, Idaho, was brought home by President Barack Obama in 2014 in a swap for five Taliban prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. Obama said at the time that the U.S. does not leave its service members on the battlefield.
Republicans roundly criticized Obama, and Trump went further while campaigning for president, repeatedly calling Bergdahl a traitor who deserved death.
