We have Xi and the Saudis working with their BRICS partners to dethrone the USD as the world’s reserve currency and some chick who plays basketball, being released from a Russian prison in exchange for a Russian arms dealer is the lead story on every Gaslight Media news outlet.

Silence Implies Consent
"Silence implies consent" is a concept of social interaction, which states roughly that people tend to assume lack of response to an action as tacit approval of that action.
An example of the thought process: If nobody complains about the plastic gnome I placed in my front yard, then it must be that nobody's bothered by it. In fact, everybody may be bothered by it; they're just being silent. You can't be sure that their silence truly means they are consenting to it.
On the other side of the coin, if you are being silent about an issue, be aware that others may very well be interpreting that as consent.

I'm just wondering if all those idiots with Ukrainian flags on the social media pages have realized the U.S. is arming both sides of the war now. Billions of dollars and weapons to Ukraine, and now a terrorist back to Russia. MIC sure has some pull!!

I'm a reasonable person. If you can provide some clarity on what is otherwise, a disastrous, unbelievably horrible, self-inflicted wound to the credibility of the United States among the rest of the world, I'm willing to try and understand your rationale.

Go to a place with left leaning people. We're not happy with it at all.

Top comment: "This is the worst trade in WNBA history"
Second top comment: "We traded a basketball player for an arms dealer?"
Other fun comments: "We are the Cleveland Browns of countries"
"Just remember if any of us were arrested in Russia no one would give a shite."
“Today, one of the world’s most prolific arms dealers is being held accountable for his sordid past,” said Attorney General Eric Holder. “Viktor Bout’s arms trafficking activity and support of armed conflicts have been a source of concern around the globe for decades. Today, he faces the prospect of life in prison for his efforts to sell millions of dollars worth of weapons to terrorists for use in killing Americans."

You have melting confused with laughing at the continued incompetence of an administration fronted by a propped up dementia patient. We get it, you have the cerebral capabilities of a massive stroke victim. Just think, if you were a Democrat living in Pennsylvania, you could be a Senator elect right now.
Take a seat, boy.

Sounds like a win if you are a democrat. Trade a Diamond for a Dog Turd.
Hunter is in charge of assuring "Pedo Peter" of getting his 10%. Hunter might even "take it out in trade" with that skag.

You're right. Not a meltdown. Everyone has been very even keeled and rational.

I never said this trade was a good thing. I enjoyed watching people overreacting because it was Griner. Apparently not participating in the national anthem makes you a terrible person.

You consider being angry that a druggie was traded for a arms dealer an overreaction?
That’s odd.

It is like this every time the Dims do something stupid or criminal or both. They plot the speaking points and when they are happy with their lame excuses they broadcast to all of their members to speak from the same page.
