Griner earned six times her WNBA salary playing for the Russian team. She is not the only American female athlete who frequently traveled to Russia to bolster her earnings, but she is now the only one left in the country. Hope it was worth it.

She did something very stupid. She should have known better. Russia may keep her.

See what happens when we don’t have pay equity? You’d never see Lebron doing this. WNBA players need pay equity with NBA players. (getting the lib talking points ready to go)

She’s an American and must be treated with respect by Russia. She’s also responsible for her behavior, and should be held accountable for her choices.

Putin may be thinking of dropping all charges against Brittney if she first agrees to put on a uniform and fight the Ukrainians for Russia. “We have plenty of soldier suits in your size! Even some pink ones!”

Just not a good month to be an Oligarch.

Griner-—enemy of the American experiment, but Russia doesn’t think much of her either.

Here in Florida marijuana is becoming big business.
CBD oils are openly sold.
The Russian courts may not treat cannabis vape products differently than marijuana. I have not heard a comment by a Russian lawyer on the matter.
