Paul Whalen staying in jail. |
I'm thrilled for Griner's family and sad for Whalen's family. |
Not comparable. Spies are almost always swapped for other spies. Griner was being held for trumped up drug offenses. |
Wow. Glad to see this and hope that Whelan also is able to share the same fate. I can't imagine how difficult this is for his family. |
And swapped for an arms dealer. |
We traded a dangerous spy who could blow up the world for a pot head. |
Arms dealer not spy. We'll be tracking him, trust. |
We should not be giving up Viktor Bout. But we will.
Americans, please listen to all travel advisories and do not go to no-travel countries. You are not special. You don’t have the protection by the bad countries no matter what you think. Now we have to give up a terrible person for a dummy who thought that it was a good idea to go Russia when she did. I am seriously happy for her as the charges were crap, but she shouldn’t have gone. |
She went to Russia for employment. Not on a whim. |
It will be entertaining watching the white wing — I mean right wing media — lost its collective shit over this and melt down today. |
You’re ignorant AF. Russia was not a state department “no travel” country until well after Griner was there. |
So we released someone we thought was a truly evil arms dealer doing major harm for a low-life druggie who’d previously had issues in the US legal system for domestic abuse and whose only talent is with a basketball? What kind of idiots are running our government? |
Bout served 14 years. It’s fine. |
I am so happy she's free. |
This makes me happy. |
