If you value your freedom never go to Russia.

Biden should have traded and thrown Trump into the deal to give to Putin.

“For you I will do this.” Nice to have a president that the normal countries respect.

Upon meeting the freed political prisoners....
Kamala was heard to say.... "Welcome to America, All you Mexican refuges are welcome here."
Joe Biden was overheard saying... "Are you the ice cream man?"

And Trump said he would have them released on day 1 😂 trump ain’t doing shi

[stephaniekatich]

We need to keep bringing them back home, no matter what.

I can hear Trump boast, "If I were President, they would be home in 1 day." The problem is that Trump WAS the President of the United States when Paul Whelan was detained. Trump simply didn't care.

Reporter: President Trump repeatedly said he could have gotten the hostages out without giving anything in exchange. What do you say about that?

President Biden: Why didn't he do it when he was the President?

Mic drop! 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤 😂😂

[KCNY]

[cynthiaallen-bryant]

Thank you President Biden and your administration. Great job. Live you’💙

[DustinMikkelsen]

So, they have back an assassin for 24 civilians? This is acceptable to me.

[OffWhiteDaz]

I've got a feeling old Joe is going to get a lot done in the next 5 months now that he doesn't have to run for re-election.
