TMZ (live TV, today 12.12.22, PM) showed results of a poll, if Brittney Griner swap with Viktor Bout was worth it. 71% responded, it was NOT.
Ho much danger will it put future U.S. citizens who visit Russia? Now Russia knows they can ransom U.S. citizens.
I wouldn’t care if it had been a white straight man wearing a MAGA hat! It wasn’t worth it to trade someone who was GUILTY and ADMITTED bringing drugs into Russia for an arms dealer, and especially when we could of brought home an INNOCENT man accused of spying!
An American is an Anetucan is an American...
Which is why no one gets it why not release a veteran that is there for years, before this drug linked Griner.
He could have gotten them both, I’m sure of it.
When you compare the values of the two people then look at which the admin intentionally chose to leave in the Gulag... you can see, we have a serious problem here.
I actually interpret it as communication intended for us and people like us.
No, just black lesbian basketball players.
If I go to Russia and get hemmed up, nobody at the State Department is going to do squat for my release.
I’m curious, when did Viktor Bout go from a contractor that the United States paid $60 million to fly materiel in and out of Iraq to the fearsome arch-criminal “Merchant of Death”?
Judging by his recent eloquently anti-woke comments, I’d say it happened the moment it became obvious he was an opponent of the globalist cabal.
Yep. I'd bet he dissed someone important in Washington, probably Hillary Clinton, and this turned into a case of "We'll show you what we can do if you cross us."
No wonder the Russians were so pissed when we threw him in prison.
I'm actually not that upset about the transfer. I not convinced he deserved to be rotting away in prison in the first place.
“Which is why no one gets it “
I think we “get it” just fine. Griner is an America-hating, drug-using lesbian of color. As such, she’s the apotheosis of today’s Democratic party and its supporters.
The CNN has been glorifying her, for days .
