Wow so happy for the families that this whole ordeal is over.

[MargaretLindsay-jxmn]

The difference between bragging about getting them released and the one who actually did so. Thank you President Biden!

[sandler]

Glad he's OK, but who did we release? At this point anyone still in Russia is there at their own risk and should not be saved when something happens.

[mrtahoe]

What happened to we don’t deal with terrorist?

[ianwalden]

Great news! Thank you President Biden for always thinking of others and not just yourself :)

[alexmonreal]

Wasn't there a teacher who has not been released?

[kristine]

Zulk een agressieve wereld van intriges, gegijzelden… en hoevelen zitten er ergens onterecht in gevangenissen waar onderhandelingen voor vrijlating zijn vastgelopen? Een lichtje in de tunnel, meer niet. 🕯️💟🗺️

It was President Biden's work strengthening ties with our allies that brought this about. It wouldn't have happened otherwise.

[stevenadams]

am i wrong here or does he keep referring to this man in plural?

[SueandJames]

They are coming home BIDEN is still working! What do you have to say now trump ?

[sharcrum]

I can barely stomach looking at and listening to Joe but for the release of the release of the prisoners, i did.

This reminds me of how ‘we’ traded the MERCHANT OF DEATH for a man named Britney Griner.

[markarmage]

Evan, if you can't do the time, next time don't be a spy.

[katmandu]

[bobbybeeman]

Now learn if you are a journalist get written permission from Russia before going there and if you are a journalist you will be thoroughly quizzed more than once. Don't cry like a baby if you get arrested it has been known ever since their were journalist that journalist chiefly are spy's to you it is not spying but to the foreign country your in it is. You are in a decent country, obey all the Russian laws your not in American where cheating and lying is acceptable but Russia which believes in strict law and order .
I as a 76 year old American born and raised in the USA wish that only our laws were as strict as they were back in the 1950's when true justice was carried out in the US now it is commonly known those who have the money or right friends can even murder and get by with it. Today the USA is a bottom of the pit Country.
