Your thoughts? And the message it sends? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11517075/Republicans-criticize-Biden-favoring-celebrities-veterans-Griner-swap.html
Disney more or less admitted that hating on America as overtly as Biden does cost them dearly.
Meanwhile, the criminal racket that is the modern DNC seems to no absolutely zero slowing down, and zero decency.
The only time in recent memory that anyone has managed to get them to even pay pretend lip service to the Constitution they so love to trample, was when Trump had the nerve to suggest doing away with it entirely, and that he be made some sort of monarch!
In that one single act, Trump stooped to a level of overt insanity that even the DNC won't admit to openly!
Meanwhile, Biden (and through him, Obama) shows how much he hates us at every given opportunity. Letting that garbage bitch back, but denying a wrongly-accused Marine his chances? Meanwhile, giving back to Russia an absolute psychopath, in exchange for a worthless basketball player?
This is almost as disgusting as that POS judge in the UK that put a man in prison for the fact that two idiots who stole his motorcycle injured themselves, because THEY failed to learn how to drive one before stealing his, as if the owner somehow did jack diddly squat to them, when he was the one that called the police and emergency to save their lives when they got injured, in spite having reason to want them dead for breaking into his home to steal from him, terrorizing his pregnant wife!
And then they penalized him monetarily on top of it, putting him 5 million pounds in debt, because the idiots who robbed the man were allowed to sue him for what was THEIR OWN STUPIDITY, on TOP OF the fact that he was put in prison! Meanwhile, the thieves themselves got nothing more than meager community service for all the trouble they caused!
Frickin' Clown World! That judge should be executed by stump grinder for getting the case that back-asswards!
It's hard to know which miscarriage of justice infuriates me more. But probably the UK story. By a hair.
The NWO needs to be placed on the ash heap of history, along with Nimrod's original vision, and confined there with extreme prejudice, after its proponents face mobs of freedom lovers all around the world avenging their freedoms with mad fervor!
May the trees have ornaments, all over the world. And not for Christmas!
Given my view of this a few times and even made a question about it months ago, but I will say it here again.
This is not a shock. This is something Biden WOULD do. No one in their right mind would trade an arms dealer who makes a career of funding people with ill intent to do harm onto others, much less for a professional, washed up athlete.
There is more value in one of those prisoners and the US was willing to be fleeced on a prionser exchange that was namely used for political brownie points. Meanwhile he shows his disdain for servicemen once again by leaving the Marine behind. Much like he did with the Americans in Afghanistan and getting 12 of them killed and disrespecting them and their families at their funerals. Grade A piece of shit.
Griner made her bed and should have laid in it. You break the laws of another country you are subject to their laws and should not be considered for a prisoner exchange. There is a reason why servicemen receive country briefs before going on vacation or are getting ready for a deployment. To keep you out of trouble.
Griner's value, take away her net worth, is jack shit compared to the Marine and the arms dealer funny enough.
It's sad that this is the best that could be done in this situation. But the Russians specifically said it's either we let her go or we let no one go.
I'd choose to get SOMEONE out too. That girl was stupid, but didn't deserve prison for bringing in CBD or editbles or whatever the heck it was she brought. The details of the man who's been in prison are completely unknown to me. And of course the russian arms dealer is a horrible man, but given the NO ONE or someone, I would've chosen someone too.
I don't even get why it was the US's job to get her out, she choose to go to Russia and have illegal stuff on her, she should accept what she was given.
The US doesn't care about non celebrities that get arrested in other countries for breaking the law, why do they care so much about her?
It was a terrible trade, arms dealer for her.

One guy I talked to today said how could BIDEN do this! And I responded it's pretty simple, Griner is a WNBA player. For starters, her release is going to give his popularity a boost. Secondly the offer wasn't Griner and Whelan. It was Griner or NOTHING. Now having said that the question is did splitting the negotiations of the two hurt Whelan's odds of coming home. You have to weigh the good by the cost. Bout was freed so Russia got what it wanted. But Russia will most likely kill Bout. There's no question Griner being freed is a good thing. But Russia's gain from this is twofold. Not only did they get Bout, but now they can use the high profile release to appear merciful, which will give the media currency to spread thier propaganda. You have to ask yourself does her release hurt more in the long run.
One things for sure, I sure hope Griner appreciates her freedom now. And understands all the sacrifices that have been made over the past 247 years so we all could have it, and stands for the national anthem now.
This is exactly what happens in politics today. A good thing happens and it gets spun to fit each persons own agenda.
A woman was released after spending time in a Russian prison of all places. That length of time more than fits the actual factual details of her arrest.
Freeing Britney Griner makes the LGBTQ+ community happy, and that community is a key supported of the Democrats, so of course a Democratic President will push for her release over a Marine. If there were a Republican President in office, the exact opposite would happen. Sad, but that's the way politics work.
Frickin joke. It's how the democrats view things. An lgbtq blm protestor pot head wnba player who hates America and hot arrested ib Russia breaking thrir laws is worth more than a man who served his country.
Here everyone liked to talk about how Trump always made bad deals, only for Biden to take making bad deals to a new low. As a side note, it's scary as *uck seeing seeing all these Biden supporters praising Biden for releasing the "Merchant of Death". I don't care if your left right or center, no one should be praising the release of such a criminal. Instead of releasing a war criminal to get one person out of jail, why not just release the thousands of non violent, minor drug offenders here at home which would only require a pardon.
Good. The protection of citizens comes before the servicemen themselves. Choosing to exchange the marine before the basketball player would be like putting the cart before the horse. It is literally the marines job to ensure the safety of said civilians at the cost of their own safety.
How is this even controversial?
and feminists will still say the US is unfair to women. SMH
question is will Brittany Griner continue smear the US?
u All she did was play baseball and bring marijuana into Russia they shouldâve made a trade for somebody that did the same thing that she did something equivalent. Not a fair deal Russia is too demanding. Blame the NBA putting pressure on America as usual to make a bad deal like that.
I personally think he should have swapped the dealer for the marine, and left the basketball player in jail. It basically says that he only cares about Z-list celebrities and woke people, rather than real people who do real jobs.
Simples...
Excellent, and I fully approve this decision. Should send a signal to any intelligence officer that he shouldn't try to spy on us, as POC and LGBT basketball celebrity is far more important than he is. The more demoralized and/or corrupt Western intelligence is, the better.
I agree. Its absolutely disgraceful how someone who actively hates our country and disparages it was given priority over someone who served it.
Not to mention, why are we giving up a dangerous guy for this sh-tsack?
I mean its a wonder why we even feel any obligation to save her ass when she spends all her time trashing the country and calling it racist.
It was one or none. The Russians were not going to give up the other guy who they convicted of espionage. Griner was sentenced for having weed.
It doesn't send any message. The Russians aren't stupid.
Can we please trade Biden for the Marine? I realize it would be an uneven trade for Russia, but maybe we can throw in Hunter and Kumilla?
That Americans shouldn't go to Russia?
Didn't Trump release 5000 Taliban? The one arms dealer (who at least served 10 years, if I understand correctly) can't pull 5000 triggers and won't lead a country.
Picking the white male would be viewed by our elite and the Democrat activist base as âproblematic.â
I just shudder to think what colossal screw up he will bumble into next?
Seems your article forgot to mention why heâs no longer a Marine. Bad conduct discharges are not easily obtained.
It is like the Warriors trading Steph Curry for an armless dwarf, only worse.
I think its stupid, Biden is stupid and leftists will try to dig up something Trump have done and point fingers at that rather than admitting Biden did something stupid.
Biden is a goddamn idiot. Get his ass out of office now
