A nonpartisan government watchdog agency said Thursday that the Pentagon broke the law when it swapped five Taliban leaders for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl earlier this year.
The Government Accountability Office, in a legal opinion issued at the request of congressional lawmakers, said the Defense Department violated the law by failing to notify key Capitol Hill committees at least 30 days in advance.
Further, the report said the Pentagon broke another law by using funds that were not technically available.

Obama, one of the few people who can break the law a dozen times before breakfast and just laugh it off.
No one is going to hold him accountable.
And that matters to whom, exactly?
Who has "standing" to take "Pentagon" to court?
See you are on it Workerbee ... yep, CIC should be in place of the word Pentagon. Prayers our government watchdogs aren’t so stupid as to have put in the wrong information. Media could believe are this stupid.
OH!!! So earlier it was the “White House” broke the law. I’m guessing Obamatons didn’t like that so now it’s “The Pentagon” broke the law. President “Who Me” didn’t know nuffin’ ‘bout nuffin’.
So, uh...when does the video of one of the Gitmo parolees cutting off another American head get posted to Youtube?
After all, 5 guys....gotta be an overachiever in the group
So .... where are the indictments, the warrants, the arrests, perp walks?
[crickets]
No worries, I hear Issa and Gowdy are on it.

Lawbreaking by dims is ok. It’s what to do.
The memorable day will be the one where he DOESN’T break any laws.
Great! Now we have military leaders in the Pentagon giving aid and comfort to the enemy. And Hasan is still stealing oxygen, even after being convicted last year. Are there any patriotic generals or admirals or JAG officers left in the military or are they laying low while the Traitor-in-Chief soils some golf course.
I miss the rule of law. I pray that on January 20, 2017, we will restore FedGov’s legitimacy.
Very misleading headline alert.
Active Duty ping.
Prisoner swap. Right.
if Rick Perry gets perp walked, finger printed, and mugshots taken on a charge of budgetary discretion to pressure an embarrassing DA...
WHY isn’t ANYONE being charged with the multitude of crimes coming out of the white hut?
it’s tough to claim we’re a nation of laws if people are above the law
