Here is the truth: The deal to trade five senior Taliban detainees to secure the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was political. It was publicly justified with lies, it breaks decades of U.S. policy, it breaks American law, it puts Americans at risk, it undermines the government of Afghanistan, and it passes responsibility on to the […]
On Sunday Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel told reporters the action to release Bowe Bergdahl was urgent because Bergdahl’s “health was deteriorating.” But Bergdahl doesn’t appear sick or weak in the Taliban video of his handover.

Kiev has admitted showering the eastern Ukrainian city of Lugansk with dozens of missiles from the air, saying that its Air Force helicopters and jets “fired more than 150 missiles” in Monday’s military action.

To put it in terms of a Chess analogy, imagine a Chess World Champion on one side of the Chess Board, and Putin on the other. Place your self in Putin’s shoes, or in Putin’s mind I should say.

Paul Craig Roberts At West Point Obama told us, to the applause of West Point cadets, that “American exceptionalism” is a doctrine that justifies whatever Washington does.

Having addressed the most probable strawmen that might be raised by Obama’s defenders, it’s time to face the extremely ugly facts of the Bergdahl situation. Obama now had three more impeachable offences to his 302 impeachable offenses to date. The first impeachable offense is that Obama broke the law requiring 30 days notification to Congress. […]
“Feeding the masses on unicorn ribs”. That was how Walter Russell Mead once poured scorn on Obama’s misbegotten attempts to revive the US economy by creating five million “green jobs.” Mead was quite right, of course. And there was plenty of evidence to back him up, such as the 2009 report by a Madrid university professor Gabriel […]
The recent onslaught of unaccompanied illegal immigrant minors at the southwest border is a direct result of President Barack Obama’s immigration rhetoric, and the only way to confront it will be for Obama to speak out against it, according to Alabama Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions. “This is a direct result of the President’s statements that he […]
The five Guantanamo detainees released by the Obama administration in exchange for America’s last prisoner of war arrived in Qatar today. As Brian Ross reported on ABC: “The terror group is calling their release a major victory. New video posted this morning on an Afghan news website shows the five former detainees arriving in Qatar with no sign they are […]
Barack Obama broke a federal law that he signed just six months ago when he authorized the release of five high-ranking Taliban terror targets from the Guantanamo Bay detention center in exchange for the return of U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, senior congressional Republicans claimed today. And the president may also have written a new […]
