What a mess. She’s minorly dumb for being in Russia as an American right now in the first place not to mention with something so trivially illegal as oil for a pen. However, my God we can’t be handing them a horrible international criminal in return. The precedent that would set abroad. Lock up an American for next to nothing and get your bad people back from us

Joe learned how to get his arse beat by Putin while working under Obama. Who also got his arse beat by Putin.

It would be like trading Brady for a full back on the Jags

She travelled there and was detained before the Ukraine invasion, she was there to play basketball in the Russian leagues for some side coin during the US WNBA off-season.

I agree, it's like negotiating with terrorists. But I don't understand the absolute hatred towards Grinder. She is a young, extremely stupid, human being. Doesn't mean she deserves to be locked up for 9 years for marijuana. And yes I understand that is not America and it's Russia but it's still ridiculous.

Why isn't Biden trying to get Marc Fogel out of prison?

Same Airport in Russia, same charge

No it’s not. She and I use that term loosely broke their laws and guess what she is now going to have to do the time. That is until taterhead trades her for a terrorist and an 3rd round draft pick.

She kinda sorta was the "Tom Brady" of the WNBA. She wasn't just a random player. She was the creme de la creme. As close to a superstar as you can get in the WNBA.

She spit on the flag and country that she is now begging to come to her rescue.

Can we trade Kaepernick and/or Eric Reid for her? Only trade that should be accepted.

This is a good question and what little I read was that he had enormous quantities, not a handful of vape cartridges. I don't know the truth, hard to get truth out of there.

The irony is fantastic, I love it, but 9 years for some vape oil is still Draconian and Russia is using her as a hostage. And I don't think that's right. But you do you, fellow patriot.

Don’t feel sorry for her one bit! Maybe she’ll make it on “Locked Up Abroad.”

Never said I thought the sentence was just. You asked where all the hatred came from.
