    Not if your IQ is above room temperature.

    Guaranteed they were told not to bring drugs, but she did it anyway.

    I guess you've never held your own views as a youth.
    You've been an angel your entire life and did what you were told.

    Mistakes? Sure. I made mistakes. Minor ones.

    Was I a complete moron that brought illegal drugs into foreign countries after being warned of the potential consequences?

    Nope. That's a special kind of stupid.

    Of course it is, but I think what is being attempted here is a continuation of "victim hood". 1st she was born with the wrong skin color....victim. 2nd she is a female that has an attraction to other females.....victim, now she is just young, innocent and dumb......victim. This is always the ace in the hole for those that want to play the leftist narrative. It goes back to the days of Adam and Eve when they both played the "victim" but we should NEVER learn from the past!

    Griner is 32 years old. She is not some youth but a full fledged adult who should know better about getting arrested for doing stupid stuff.

    We can't talk about her because she's not a public figure, even though she is. Can't criticize her choices since she's not an adult, even though she is. Can't weigh in on her public stances because we've never met her; while dairyair slams all those at PF he disagrees with, despite never having met them. The hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance are kind of amusing, in a pratfall/spit take kind of way.

    Certainly a life changing event.


    Brittney Griner released by Russia in 1-for-1 prisoner swap for arms dealer Viktor Bout, U.S. offici

    https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/brittney-griner-release-russia-prisoner-swap-viktor-bout/

    Brittney Griner, the WNBA star who was held for months in Russian prisons on drug charges, was released Thursday in a one-for-one prisoner swap for international arms dealer Viktor Bout, according to a U.S. official. The one-for-one exchange agreement negotiated with Moscow in recent weeks was given final approval by President Biden within just the last week, according to sources familiar with the deal. The swap, first reported by CBS News, took place on Thursday in the United Arab Emirates.

    Five former U.S. officials told CBS News the agreement had been reached as of last Thursday.

    A White House official said President Biden was in the Oval Office Thursday morning on the phone, speaking with Griner and her wife, and that Vice President Kamala Harris was also in the room. Per standard procedure for freed U.S. prisoners, Griner was expected to quickly undergo a medical evaluation.


    Biden is expected to make a statement shortly.

    ETA: She's already on her way home.

    So, the former Marine who did nothing wrong stays imprisoned in Russia just so Biden can look good bringing back a convicted criminal who has hollywood fans. . . .

    It's classic.


    Right wingers are mad that Biden is not doing enough to get an American out of Russia.
    And now that Biden did accomplish this is actually not the longest amount of time, the GOP is still mad.

    Jelly much?

    I'm aware you’ll look right over the idiocy of trading an arms dealer who supplied known terrorists and murderers with thousands of weapons used against the US and our allies for one of the dumbest athletes on the planet for the purpose of politics.

    This former marine was thrown out of the marines for bad conduct "The specific charges against him included "attempted larceny, three specifications of dereliction of duty, making a false official statement, wrongfully using another’s social security number, and ten specifications of making and uttering checks without having sufficient funds in his account for payment."

    Nothing wrong? He admitted to some of the Russian charges

    Senate Dem: Griner-for-Bout swap "deeply disturbing," enabling future hostage-takers

    Gee, ya think? We traded a black market arms dealer for a cliched America-hating lefty who was stupid enough to bring illicit drugs into a hostile foreign country. Her fellow America-hating lefties are cheering, while continuing to not give a sh!t about the wrongfully imprisoned Paul Whelan. On the bright side, it's the 1st time a WNBA trade has ever made the news.

    I don't doubt that Bout was an arms dealer, just like I don't doubt the US military industrial complex is comprised of many arms dealers.

    I do not trust the claims of most federal agents, especially those in the FBI and the DEA. I know nothing of the details of the sting in which Bout was trapped in Thailand, but I do know DEA and FBI agents are mostly frequent liars. Tucker had some DEA agent speaking about it. Almost sounds like religion to me.

    Sounds like using marijuana isn't a victimless crime.

    I wonder how many tens of thousands will be murdered because Griner put drugs in her suitcase.

    The next time Russia arrests an American they'll probably trade Alaska to Russia or something.

    I'm surprised he didn't do it this time.

    So Russia, in dire need of weapons to fight the war in the Ukraine has now succeeded in freeing the world's most successful arms dealer to work for them?

    So sad that Trump never got to buy Greenland, he could have swapped it for his Patriotic American disgraced "bad conduct" discharged Marine convicted of spying.

    What a missed opportunity during his 2024 campaign for president.
