Obama made the call. It’s his third term.

Griner checked all the boxes: Black; woman; dyke; hates America.

And loved by the Democrat voters. You have to give the Dems credit for one thing, they pay off their voters with action. Today Brandon is pumping some 30 billion into the union pension fund - his voters get a big payoff. Meanwhile, the GOP does nothing for it's voters, like school reform, reducing government, closing the border, etc. so this explains the enthusiasm gap and why the GOP can't elect people and get people to the polls.

“How do you dispel the public perception that if you are a celebrity or a professional athlete, you get preferential treatment in a situation like this?” asked CBS journalist Weijia Jiang.

Easy! You get the Russians to promise to reply - if asked - that it was either Brittney or no one!

That makes the White House look like the long-suffering Good Guys!

"We had no choice! The mean Russians offered us only Brittney!"

Sure, Mac! Sure!

Regards,

I had no problem with Walker.

Probably a nice enough guy, not Senate material.

Mark Fogel, a teacher and former employee of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow was sentenced to a 14-year prison term in Russia in April for drug smuggling after he was caught entering the country with medical marijuana, he says was prescribed to him after back surgery. He’s still there. I guess white privilege doesn’t work when it comes to hostage exchanges

It must be miserable for her to be forced to come back to a country she hates so much.

“It was either Brittney or no one at all”

What the HELL does that mean? No one at all would be much preferable than that guilty, drug addicted, America-hating, ungrateful, just plain stupid bitch. We are trading KNOWN terrorists for that beast? What a great country we have here.

I’m thinking of applying for a scab position at the NYT.

What do you think of this as a writing sample?

“As bad as things were in the Russian jail, in many ways life for Black female LBTQ athletes in the US is far worse.

Hopefully Brittany will continue to display her amazing courage in fighting the forces of oppression, reaction, and White Supremacy which continue the threaten minority bodies here in America.”

Russia doesn’t want that American-hating bitch anymore than half of the US does.

Hmm. What does this sound?

Oh yeah. We got everyone out of Afghanistan. No one was left stranded...

The Obamanites view this is a wise move in their death to America agenda.

I’m not sure he was a hero. He was he was released from the Marines with a dishonorable discharge. I don’t think many people know that. I just found out today.
