“Merchant of Death Viktor Bout for the American basketball star”
Let’s compromise. Have Bout identify as a woman, and put him on the team during release time at the federal penitentiary. They’re one short.
The Twitterverse is going nuts. ‘But she’s a gay, black woman, they can’t do this!’. She’s lucky it wasn’t Singapore.
schadenfreude! That’s what I’m feeling right now. The only greater pleasure would be for a meteor to come down from the heavens and destroy the New York Times on a day that ALL the Bolsheviks are in the building. That would be very satisfying.
Welcome to the joys of overseas travel for the insidiously stupid ‘privileged people’.
S(he) wasn't "found" guilty s(he) admitted guilt.
S(he) was sentenced for drug charges in a Russian court on Thursday.
Tough shit. Perhaps you should be more mindful of your behavior and choices while in another country. Stop acting like an idiot with no common sense.
She is lucky to be in Russia instead of one of the Asian nations that execute people for the same crime.
The poor fella....
Midnight Express redux
Good thing for her she didnt try to enter Singapore. They execute dealers.
After some difficult military indoctrination, our trainee group was ordered to about face as the flag of the USA was raised and the National Anthem was played. An emotional experience for all. I never tire of seeing Old Glory at full staff and hearing the strains of the Star Spangled Banner. When/if Griner is released, I wonder if the racist, America-hating lesbian will think differently of the country that has given her so much.
I think we can count on Biden to do the wrong thing - same as Obama.
She hates America. Maybe she’ll find happiness in a Russian prison. I wish her luck!
What's “outrageous” about it?
Try smuggling illegal drugs to Singapore and you get executed. They should be thanking Russia for their magnanimity.
Biden will trade for him. Just watch.
WE KNOW THIS HAPPENED HOURS AGO WHY ARE WE YELLING ABOUT IT?
Looks like Russia doesn’t accept the Race Card.
Look at the bright side, Brittany. You won’t have to listen to the Star Spangled Banner anymore!
It’s crazy excessive and she’s being used politically
Which is to be expected
What will it cost us is the question
Wait till she finds out about the additional 10 years
of internal exile.
Kolyma, Kolyma.
Amazing Planet.
12 months of winter.
the rest is summer.
Excerpt:
“After being imprisoned in the far north of Russian Siberian wasteland, Polish soldier Slawomir Rawicz and six of his friends managed to escape from the gulag and go on incredible journey in which they walked over 4000 miles southward until they reached safety in India.”
