It's the end of another week and time for the Flashback, Take Two's look at the week in news. This morning we're joined by Robin Abcarian from the Los Angeles Times, and Jamelle Bouie from Slate.com.

We start with the biggest story this week: the Bowe Bergdahl saga. Bergdahl is the Army soldier that was captured by the Taliban in 2009. His release this week was made after key Taliban figures were released from Guantanamo Bay, but the controversy began after it was revealed that he could have deserted his post. 

Another part of the controversy is because Congress wasn't told of the swap, which is a violation of federal law. Of course the administration said the rule was designed for normal detainee transfers, not an emergency situation, but what are people saying about this idea that Congress wasn't informed? 

The blowback to the swap was pretty swift, the Washington Post has a really entertaining post that looked at the deleted tweets from high level politicians because of the intense scrutiny. Why don't politicians just explain a change of heart? 

What kind of impact could this have on Obama and the Democrats? Might this have some effect on Obama's stated goal of closing Guantanamo Bay? 

Yesterday, the Senate reached a deal on improving veteran healthcare. What was the deal that was reached and is it likely to calm critics of the VA? 

Finally let's talk about the very disturbing story coming out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where two 12 year old girls allegedly tried to kill another young girl because of a horror meme known as the Slender Man. What is this meme about?

Prosecutors have announced that they will attempt to charge the suspects as adults, an awful crime, but the decision is garnering a lot of push-back, could it spark the conversations on trying young people as adults?
