Utter rubbish. Women don't have "wives".

“Why was she in Russia?”

She competes for foreign teams in leagues across the pond almost every year when the WNBA is between seasons. Two years ago she played for a Chinese league team for 4 months and made $600K. But the big money for women’s basketball is in Russian leagues. And with her size and teachings she was an easy entice overseas for short leagues. Money talks. And she’s been doing these leagues for years and knows drugs are not legal at all to transport and the foreign countries don’t like Americans, especially homosexuals, coming in and creating attitudes of the citizens just by their appearance and outlook. She had to be well aware she was a target and was either stupid or arrogant not to know or care.

Biden did promise to get her out, but just like everything else he does, it didn’t happen and no one is seeing anything moving in that direction. She’ll be lucky if they don’t hang her before Biden thinks about how he is going to get a criminal out of a Russian jail.

Isn’t this the judicial system the Communist Party wants in America? Somebody tell her they never had slavery in Russia like America.

Wot-THE-Wot!
Anybody who would knowingly have a Male Bridesmaid, in Drag and going Commando in front of little children guests, is not someone who takes marriage seriously.

I thought the politically correct term was partner.

You are way behind the curve. That was back when they were pretending to just be nice moderate middle class preppies who liked fixing old houses, telling funny stories, and crying about how they just wish they could visit the person the love in the hospital.

They got gay marriage from that ruse so they don't need it anymore. Now they are free to be who they really are, entitled bullies. So it's all "you WILL bend the knee! We will take your terms and they are no ours! Say one word and you will be de-personned! Now send your kids to a drag show with a bunch of one dollar bills ... or else!"

A couple of my kids actually have roommates, or I guess to put it better housemates. I’m not sure that’s a euphemism. In their cases it’s strictly business arrangements.

OK ... he's either wanking, or covering up something that came up. I'm surprised that women inspire him to such things ...

I’m hoping that the Ruskies give her the choice of 15 years in a Siberian work camp or 4-year enlistment in the Russian army now in Ukraine...

Yes, if it turns out to be a swap, it will be wildly disproportionate in Russia’s favor, we can count on that from Brandon.

What kind of defense can she possibly have? I had read the cannibas oil was hidden in vape pens. She broke their laws. They are not going to release her. Plus what can Biden do? He’s been trashing Putin left and right and also NOT proposing the January 6 detainees be released. Some have never been charged. If he says anything about releasing her, some in the press will have a field day with him. She made some bad choices and now will have to face the consequences.

Nice Warren Zevon reference.

A bit O/T, I bought my first Zevon circa 1978, Excitable Boy. Lawyers, Guns and Money became my theme song the next year, when I was sent TDY to a German anti-aircraft range (Todendorf). As luck would have it, I met a waitress there, and the rest is history...but no, she was never with the Russians.

I went home with a waitress,
The way I always do
How was I to know
She was with the Russians, too

I'm hiding in Honduras,

I'm a desperate man

Send lawyers, guns and money

The s__t has hit the fan.

Warren Zevon was a musical treasure.

I call it supreme irony: a woman known for her boycott of the National Anthem, begs to return home after being jailed by Russians for drugs.
