[alrightalrightalright]

We literally traded “the merchant of death “ for a basketball player. I can’t believe this is what America has come to .

[JM-rpqf]

Yeah it's a GOOD morning for Viktor. Russia 1 - USA 0

[edyxfql]

I thought Biden said we don’t negotiate with terrorists

[djardine]

The American Government should be deeply ashamed of themselves.

[timidturkey]

Explain how Griner was "unjustly detained" and how Griner "shouldve been at home with her loved ones all along, " when the reason this happened was because Griner knowingly brought illegal substances into another countries borders

[MrNateJSutton]

RIP Biden's credibility on Gun Control

[vicokeglmmortal]

God please help us this administration is so stupid! I would trade Biden for Paul Whelan in a heartbeat

[rippingsportspacks]

The Few The Proud The Marines
Not according to biden

[jesusguzman]

Unjustly detained?
She brought an illegal drug to another country!!!

[patricity]

Truly disgusting, you trade for a basketball player and not a marine. This administration is evil

[Mikeyski]

This administration is a joke. We are now less safe because of this.

[dutchschaefer]

So the swap was for a Russian arms dealer ? What about the US marine that has been falsely imprisoned over there in Russia ? Anyone ?

[alintampa]

anti-American griner gets freed before Paul? What an embarrassment This administration and those who voted for this administration are

[ThePWNDR]

Imagine being Paul Whelan, sentenced to 16 years in Russia in 2020 for spying but seemingly being pushed down the prisoner swap pecking order by Griner.

[jester]

Man, I really need to get me some of THAT black/female/LGBTQ privilege...anything at this point, jeez.
FJB

[russellscala]

You left a 🇺🇸MARINE behind there PAL. !!🤬

[chadrobin]

This is a disgrace…. What about the marine thats been there 5 years now?? Fjb for being so incompetent

[ctower]

Godly American empire really took a step back today. If this was a regular citizen, not in the public eye, she'd be right there with Paul Whelan. This empire is on borrowed time. The end is near for this empire.

[georgeneil]

She should pay the price just like everyone else

[johnpatrick]

We traded one of the world's most dangerous arms dealer for somebody who knowingly broke the law of the country she was entering and was banking on her celebrity status to just do as she pleases?
