That’s Unfortunate – NBC Reported White House Had to Choose Between Brittany Griner or Paul Whelan, Biden Chose Griner – Then NBC Changed Report

The Russians would swap either U.S. citizen for the return of arms dealer Viktor Bout; however, the White House would have to decide which American they wanted in return.  The White House decided there was greater benefit to getting LGBTQ+ hero Brittany Griner returned, and left Paul Whelan in a Russian prison.

[ NBC Report – Archived Version LINK ]

SNIP

In the original version: “the Kremlin gave the White House the choice of either Griner or Whelan — or none.”

In the stealth revised version: “the Kremlin ultimately gave the White House the choice of either Griner or no one after different options were proposed.”

When the life of a rabid anti-American WNBA player was worth more than that of a US Marine.

You can’t blame Biden for picking Griner. It’s a foundational principle of politics... ya got to dance with who brung ya. Griner is a drug-using, America-hating lesbian of color. She’s the base of the Democratic party.

Here’s a question: Why was the video Griner and Bout on the tarmac edited to remove the second or two where they shook hands?

One of the prevailing conspiracy theories out there is that this is all a coordinated plan by the world elite to flatten Ukraine, which will be rebuilt with money from the West into the new "wonder city/state" similar to what the Arabs did with Dubai. Russia would have to be a partner in the project due to the energy required. Not saying I believe it, but I don't rule anything out these days, and there is some info out there that gave rise to the theory.

Griner is a piece of human debris. She should never have been freed. She belongs in a Russian gulag where she could work hard and get her head right. All Biden did was magnify her sense of entitlement.
