Whether bull shite or not Whelen was convicted of espionage so the Russians might require more than Bout to let him out.

Getting well known basketball player freed is great publicity, makes the white house seem like a hero. A US marine just doesnt move the needle like theyd like.

Par for the course.

Biden left behind Americans and Afgan allies, to fend for themselves against the Taliban, when he pulled forces out of Afghanistan

I honestly don't understand how people don't see the blatant "buying off" by democrats. They do things that only help them get votes and praise. Its absolutely amazing to me. They fall for it every time. This country, the most powerful in the world, just traded a very dangerous man for a basketball player. Should she have gotten 9 years for that? No. Was it a crazy sentence? Of course. But we played right into Russia's hands. And Biden will get a ton of praise by the woke mob and the MSM because she is black and gay. Meanwhile the white marine who served our country is rotting. You should be mad. Its disgusting. And the idiots in this country are blinded by the stupidity of it all.

There are tons of Americans locked up abroad. Only the squeaky wheels get the grease and Griner was the squeakiest. They had every celeb and personality speaking for them. It's sad it's just the state of our celebrity worship.
She comes home while others rot.

The blonde haired chick stout posted not BG.

She’s in a holding cell in Russia waiting to be exported. Here’s her GoFundMe if you’d like to contribute to her flights home, that seems to be the hold up.

On its face, it’s pretty absurd but Whelan’s lawyer said this morning negotiations for his release are still ongoing. Russia convicted him(wrongly most likely) of spying so I’m sure they’re putting a much higher price on any swap.

We will never know how many thousands of people around the world will die when the merchant of death, who we released for her, resumes his shipping of arms to terrorists

BTW, it will NEVER be mentioned in the MSM

So would mine. Just like that Marine that’s mentioned. That’s what we get for our celebrity culture and for sending celebrities all over the place.

Her interviews will be very interesting. She went from marginal celebrity athlete to a pawn in global politics. She is young and dumb. They have to have people in her ear debriefing her. Here’s what you say, here is what you shouldn’t say, here is what will get every american held in communist custody killed.

Her wokeness and agendas will conflict with any instincts of common sense and self preservation.

We will see what wins.

If she has any self awareness she will grasp how little she actually knows about the world and how it works.

More than the "merchant of death"? lol


Russia/USSR has almost exclusively released Western prisoners convicted of spying in exchange for their spies convicted in the west ie Abel for Powers.
