Man dis dont make no scence
Biden calling on Putin to release her? Putin ain’t doing nothing Biden says. If any trade takes place, bring back someone that knows how to stand during the national anthem.

Why exchange? Leave him there! Unfair to others who are imprisoned for the same crime
This wouldn’t never happen if Trump was president trust me!!! He’s all American he would’ve got her out way before that he knows how to negotiate
0:00 🥵
Human behavior (+) or (-) is learned; (-) behavior receives consequences! Thus, illegal aliens that violate laws in the USA & getaway with it carry mental & physical consequences! Grinner learned (-) behavior led her to receive a consequence!!! 'If you can't do the time, don't do the crime!' An example to any person who violates the law!!! Wake up Americans because God has his 'laws' also & if you willfully violate his laws, you will receive CONSEQUENCES!!!! However, God shares: John 3:3; John 3:16; Proverbs 3:5&6 & more. What about you?
LEAVE BRITNEY WHERE SHE IS, SHE KNEW SHE WAS BREAKING LAWS, SHE HATED THE USA, SHE DISRESPECTED OUR FLAG BY NOT KNEELING, OUR PLEADG TO OUR FLAG, SHE WANTED TO BE IN RUSSIA THEN LET HER, I VOTE NO EXCHANGE FOR HER.
yes you might say its nothing more then a Russian Kangaroo Court,
This what happens when they legalize cannabis and people think they haul it everywhere you go, do that crap in your home, it's a setup. many people flying into other cities, that it not legal ,and is getting in trouble for being dumb. This is no mistake, yeah I'm saying it. She may have ruin her career..
So that second person Russia asked for, the spy. That’s who they wanted this whole time that’s why Russia arrested her, it’s clearly hostage diplomacy
keep him
Remember when she was talking about how awful America is and how much she hates our country? Lol
You hate America, yet you want America to rescue you! You are a traitor and communist and I'm glad you're found guilty, because you are. This 'I didn't mean to ' is a bunch of bull. You're guilty and you know it. I hope they keep you there, because that's where you belong!
She should take a knee on the Russian national anthem and hopefully she will get their respect. I hope she stays there for 70 years.
Guess karma sucks…. When you talk about how bad the United States is…… then you get to a real dictatorship….. bet you miss your freedoms now huh….
For weed. Ridiculous. However she should have known better she’s not in oppressive racist america. Let’s see her kneel for the anthem
If jo biden gets her out of Germany jail I hope he releases all the American people in jail for cannabis charges
She hates America leave her there do the crime do the time
Is a fuk$ing vape cartridge. Get her tf outta there. Russia is unbelievable
Please Russia teach America a lesson! Our politicians and media folks have been kissing the Black man's ass for many decades now…looting,, rioting,,shoplifting, drug smuggling are now a legit profession for Black folks to take up…teach our arrogant leaders that Russians don't kiss people ass…
Pulling the race card won't work in Russia 😂
a Sportslady with Drugs? Should stay for 20Years+ in the worst Jail for ever in Russia…..
oh a black drug dealer.
HAHAHAHA
They better not swap for her. She's not worth it.
I feel like I'm watching the NBA draft or an NBA trade deal
She shd get 1 yr Probation
She hates America and most Americans… please keep her in Russia… she hates 🇺🇸… keep her in Russia forever
She claims she wasn't read her rights. What rights is she referring to?
Lock her up !
This is some real BS if I had ever seen any
Nine years in prison is what the prosecutor has recommended Griner serve for hash oil. He is out of his mind.
I enjoy eating pringles chips!
Leave that dude there
She was stupid for trying to get away with smuggling contraband into Russia!! Period!! I don't believe that the swap should take place, nor do I think it's even remotely fair to trade her for someone that has helped kill many Americans with the weapons he supplied! So what, does she just get a get out of jail free card, knowing that she clearly broke the law!? What's the lesson there!?
Stop traveling to all those crazy countries that would give you 10 years in prison for less than a gram of hashish oil! The US government should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to drag out this long. She's being used as a chess piece. This has nothing to do with breaking the law. She's a high profile WNBA player that was recognized and they arrested her to use her for negotiating the release of their people. I'm sorry but I thought the USA didn't negotiate with terrorists????
Kind of embarrasing that there is possible negotiations for exchanging wnba basketball player for a high level arms dealer.
The US' cold shoulder towards Brittaney Griner.
The Russian is in German custody btw.
Griner doesn't like America, so keep her in Russia! 😂
Let's hope her career is over no more kneeling during our national anthem.. no more Shaq in the WNBA how could she play knowing she broke the rules set for the by the WNBA
