...none of this is to mention that it was a serious mistake to send Warren to Algeria, a country that elected an extremist Islamic government and has absolutely no tolerance for rape. By the way, the fact that Warren, who had converted to Islam and is said to speak Arabic fluently, reportedly went to a mosque in Algeria to look for sources was an amateurish ploy that could only have drawn suspicion on him. Since the Justice Department began looking into the allegations late last year, Warren has been called back to Washington, according to ABC News, which broke...
Galindo has been charged with misdemeanor statutory rape after he and the girl admitted to having sex during their weeklong "marriage." He has since been released. Martinez is accused of a felony for "receiving money for causing persons to cohabitate." The police called their news release "Human Trafficking."

He's got a kindly divorced father who lives in a small town in Pennsylvania and hunts deer, so we know we're supposed...

Under the policy, NGOs that applied for family-planning funds from the U.S. Agency on International Development (USAID) had to refrain from using any of their own funds to provide abortion (with exceptions for cases of rape or incest or to save the life of the mother).
