“There are drug laws in Russia that she broke but what’s more important is being woke.”

Maybe I should become a poet?

When and if she ever gets home, she’ll be held up as a LGBGTQ martyr who endured the Russian Gulag, she’ll write a book and make tons of money, when the moral of the story is when you are in a foreign country you had better follow their rules to a Tee because if you don’t you end up in jail where the US Constitution doesn’t apply.

Suddenly I hear the “Midnight Express” theme playing in the background.

First off, she is a professional athlete who shouldn’t be involved with that crap in the first place. And now, she is caught in a foreign country with drugs. Country’s laws apply. She will be tried, sentenced and that will be it. Or Russia will hold her hostage as a negotiation tactic. Biden will probably trade her for no longer sending weapons systems to Ukraine.

Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.

The only down side is she will have elementary schools named after her when she comes back.

I hope they keep her. Given her feelings about the USA, she should be quite content in a Russian jail.

So... lemme see if I got this straight...
Entitled American bitch travels to a foreign country...
Brings along her vape pen..
Gets arrested in said foreign country for it..
And now faces charges.
How exactly is this my problem?
