On Saturday, President Trump intervened on behalf of decorated US Navy SEAL, Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher, who is awaiting trial for ‘premeditated murder’ of an ISIS terrorist.
US Navy prosecutors accused Gallagher of premeditated murder over the stabbing of an injured 15-year-old ISIS terrorist in Mosul, Iraq in May of 2017.
Even worse, Gallagher was arrested on ‘Patriot’s Day,’ September 11th, 2018 — he was shackled and thrown into solitary confinement while remaining shackled for 72 hours, and he’s being held at Miramar Brig in San Diego, California.
The SEAL was also charged with aggravated assault for allegedly shooting Iraqi civilians.
Gallagher has denied the charges and his lawyer is confident his client will be acquitted.
President Trump intervened on Saturday.
“In honor of his past service to our Country, Navy Seal Eddie Gallagher will soon be moved to less restrictive confinement while he awaits his day in court. Process should move quickly!” Trump said in a tweet on Saturday.

Eddie Gallagher has served 19 years in the US Navy, 8 tours, 6 of which as an elite special forces operator — he was ranked as the top SEAL chief and his platoon ranked as the top SEAL platoon.
In other words, Gallagher is one of our fiercest warriors and he is being demonized for killing the enemy.
The Navy SEALs Fund Brotherhood Beyond Battlefield launched a fundraising campaign for Gallagher, calling the charges a “travesty of justice.”
