Everything is political. She was a political prisoner, Biden’s hands were forced & everybody is going to talk politics when it comes to this deal. Nobody really gives a fukk. Read that again. Nobody really gives a fukk :ufdup:

My point exactly.

Good that's she's free but I'm just acknowledging the absurdity. The man was tied to an attempt at getting DEA agents clipped but she had fame on her side.


Who should the USA have traded her for then? I'm still not getting the point.

Like I said, I'm against prisoner exchanges, but if you're going to do them then every person who deserves release has maximum value. Griner doesn't have less value than anyone.

The thing is have we heard anything from him? Has he ever been interviewed? Has he changed? You saying he don’t have the contacts man stop it
It was 15 years ago. Many of the people he worked with are in prison, dead or retired.

Would you have liked the deal better if an American arms dealer got released? :dahell:


An American who deserved to be released got exchanged for a Russian who didn't. I'm against prisoner exchanges on principle but the whole "uneven trade" shyt is stupid. Her freedom is every bit as important. People are literally talking like her life is less valuable than his which is some wild shyt and pretty illogical.
What the fukk are you even trying to say with this bullshyt?

Nobody is saying her life is less important. It’s actually more to the contrary. It’s more about the release of someone who was a threat to US citizens and it paling in comparison to what Russia had to give up in return (they didn’t give up someone who was of a comparative threat to them).

Griner is a nobody to Russia. They just used her as a political bargaining chip.
