Twist in Green Beret's Extraordinary Story: Trump's Intervention After Murder Charges
I guess murder is okay for some folks.The long and winding case of Maj. Mathew L. Golsteyn had all the elements of a story that would seize President Trump's attention. A Green Beret charged by the Army in the killing of a man linked to the Taliban. Thorny questions about America’s longstanding entanglement in Afghanistan. And a Fox News program that lauded the officer as a war hero.
And so, on Sunday, Mr. Trump announced on Twitter that he would examine the case of Major Golsteyn, using, verbatim, language aired just minutes before by his favorite program, "Fox & Friends."
