Abdul-Jabbar wrote that Griner's supporters should focus their efforts on putting pressure on Russia rather than the U.S., arguing pressuring American officials might postpone Griner's release while the government "deals with Russia's outrageous demands." He added: "Everyone supporting Brittney Griner has their hearts in the right place. Good people, one and all. But heart alone isn't effective in bringing about her release, and by publicly pressuring the U.S. government, we may be inadvertently delaying her release."

giant body, pea brain.
Now gotta watch Bruce Lee kick his ass again in Game of Death
How many heads would explode if president Trump got Putin to release her? The rats would lose the tiny minds they have left.
Why would Putin release Griner while Russian athletes are banned from most if not all international competitions?
Hahahahahaha
They would beg Putin not to release her, so as not to give Trump any kind of victory.
Kareem just said “deals with Russia’s outrageous demands”
The idiot can’t seem to get that when you call someone names that encourages them to ^%$# you over.....
Putin is going to be holding her until the American idiots have walked off the stage—if that takes all of the ten years that that is what it will be.
“Putin is going to be holding her until the American idiots have walked off the stage—if that takes all of the ten years that that is what it will be.”
Why not? As long as she has some value in the peace agreement regarding the way the Special Military Operation ends, she’ll be a negotiating piece. She chose to try to be cute, she lost.
I missed it. Did she get formally sentenced? For 10 years?
Eh. But I will say this, US Citizens have a right to petition their government. To take action on Brittany Griner or any other issue. That is the point of this nation.
Feel bad for this woman, but basically nobody should travel to any of these shady nations. And Russia is def. one of them.
Hope our gov’t, useless tho’ it may be is working for her release. Hope those who want it to do that will still continue to petition that gov.
G-d bless America. Let’s hope Ms. Griner gets back here and finally gets respect for this wonderful country through her thick, THC clouded mind.
Kareem is just another angry black man. Who cares what he thinks just because he throws us a bone.
I’m not hoping for her return.
Her story about accidentally packing illegal drugs is bs.
She was a person who had the ability to influence many and she used that
ability to run down her country and normalize a depraved life style.
I’ll go one better. I won’t be putting pressure on the USA or Russia to release “her”
How many heads would explode if president Trump got Putin to release her? The rats would lose the tiny minds they have left.
If Trump did, he would be impeached again.
They would say he’s interfering in US foreign policy. He’s Putin’s pal. Russia! Russia! Russia! She says she voted for biden, let him get her out.
Lew: does anyone care what you think? 🙄
I find her case amusing. She’s all in on this Black Lives Matter, kneeling for National Anthem, America is racist tropes. And she is begging a WHITE American President to save her butt. She is eager to be back in the America which she perceives as filthy nasty racist, etc. etc.
Griner can rot in the gulag for all I care. Then maybe she will appreciate the anthem.
———-
From what I understand she/he/it has been playing ball in Russia for the past 7 years. There’s literally no excuse for not understanding and obeying the laws of the host country. Rot in jail for all I care Commie!
