Thank Greta Van Susteren - Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi freed from Mexican jail, immediately returns to US

Greta: Obama “Doesn’t Give a Damn” About Jailed Marine [WATCH]
With all of the uproar surrounding Obama’s illegal trade of five Taliban prisoners for a Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, most of the media doesn’t seem to be paying attention to the Marine stuck in a Mexican prison.
The Obama administration has done absolutely nothing to aid in his release, even though President Obama recently chatted with the President of Mexico – and didn’t say a word about jailed Sergeant Tahmoorhessi.

After 214 days in a Mexican prison, Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi crossed the US – Mexican border Friday night, boarding a private jet for Florida shortly after 9 p.m., after a strong diplomatic push convinced a judge to release the former Marine on humanitarian grounds.
His release comes after a lengthy trial and a Congressional hearing in September highly critical of Obama Administration efforts to secure his release and Mexico’s refusal to let him go.  Tahmooressi said he made an innocent mistake the evening he crossed into Tijuana with three weapons in his truck on March 31.
While his defense rested its case several weeks ago, Tahmooressi’s release came only after a strong diplomatic push from former Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico and Reps. Ed Royce (R-CA) and Matt Salmon (R-AZ).
