From the article:
Last month, a bitterly divided House Armed Services Committee voted to condemn Obama for the swap. The Republican-led panel backed a nonbinding resolution that disapproves of the exchange and faults Obama for failing to notify Congress 30 days in advance of the swap, as required by law. The bipartisan resolution raised national security concerns about the transfer of the five Taliban, who had been held at the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, for more than a decade, and the "repercussions of negotiating with terrorists." The measure also expresses relief that Bergdahl has returned safely to the United States.
The full House is expected to consider the measure in the fall, just a few weeks before the midterm elections.
In other words,
absolutely NOTHING will be done to anybody.

” role of CIC (commander in chief) “
Similarly there have been numerous articles about the Pentagon thinking about implementing more attacks on ISIS. It’s not their call. They can plan and suggest, but it’s the CIC who makes the call. (He won’t authorize more thin pinpricks.)
