  1. anthony weiner is known fir his weiner, pete but'e'gig is known for his butt gig and britner griner is known for her grinding. Follow the rabbit thats spelled with three letters

  2. What a freakin loser, sickening!

  3. Brittney Griner, America cant stand you. You are a horrible person and should still be rotting in prison. Absolutely disgusting!

  4. Is she still going to get a marijuana charge? If anyone of us got caught with what she had we would still be in Russia, she is back home is her charge forgotten now bc she puts a ball in a hoop?

  5. DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LADY… DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LADY….

  6. Victor coming back with a bang

  7. Recovery from a jail she should be in ok

  8. Hope she kicked her drug addiction in Russia. Now she can think clearly

  9. Someone needs to deal with that turd….it's NOT an American…

  10. I'm glad she's back and hope she has good security because of all the hateful nutjobs out there.

  11. Maybe this DUDE will salute the flag now…pffffff worst trade ever

  12. Anyone thinking this is a woman, I have a bridge to sell you.
    Never watching women's basketball ever again.

  13. All of this obsession with the arms dealer and the the spy? We got a two time Olympic athlete home. She was unjustly detained and made a pawn. Can we just focus on her for a while?

  14. She dealing drug in another country now is free what obout people from another country dealing in usa they are lookups

  15. Guess the next time I visit USA I’ll just bring some cocaine laws don’t apply oh excuse me unless you’re rich or famous

  16. I'm sorry but we traded a arms dealer for a fucking worthless WNBA player that wasn't even good at her job for 1 and for 2 she broke there laws if we do that we don't get a free ride home how's about trade her back and get the other people that have been there longer.

  17. A note to Brittney Griner (even though of course, you Internet crazys, I know she won't see this):
    Brittney Griner I was one of the ones so very worried about you, and now I am so happy that you're home! And beyond that Britney it is so awesome that you are becoming possibly one of the leaders now in efforts to bring other prisoners home.
    So a warm welcome home from me, and I hope you and yours have a great Christmas and more.

  18. RUSSSIA IS SHOWING HIS VOICE SINCE HIS HORMONE BLOCKERS WORE OFF !!!!!!!!!

  19. Going through rehab to bend the knee to the national anthem. She gonna be collecting that 💰

  20. It’s not a matter of “if the merchant strikes again”, it’s a matter of when ! Brilliant swap Brandon, a terrorist for a pot vaping anti 🇺🇸.

  21. Biden did that so he gets the blacks vote

  22. I’m very happy for her, she deserves it, shame on the Russians for real

  23. she walks and talks like the giant from beowolf

  24. fck this dude should’ve lft him over there to rot.

  25. She will never recover her status. Americans hate her. She's a disgrace to our country.

  26. I'm sick of hearing about her. There isn't a regular American citizen in this country that would be traded for the merchant of death. This was done for one reason, to boost Biden's approval rating. Horrible trade

  27. Should've left her to rot, ungrateful ,knee taking commie … Must be an affirmative action release, leave a Marine and get a person nobody even knew until she broke the law …Good job dummies …

  28. Brittany please be humble, give back, support drug and alcohol harm minimisation programmes, give back. I’m doubtful. I’m not from USA, harsher penalties and the exchange deal morally, ethically and politically driven. Well I guess USA has sold it superficial soul for you. Please support PW at least

  29. "And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows." Jesus Christ

    We implore you on behalf of Christ: Be reconciled to God..

    Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household

  30. Britney Griner is a MAN!!!!!!!!!

  31. WNBA players is way more important and valuable than a marine. What do marines do any ways? All they do is protect the country. Brittney slam dunks balls.

  32. Wth! Seriously, this country is messed up. We have people still locked up in America for weed…..sigh….special treatment for griner…..the merchant of death…sigh…seriously….wow

  33. in TeN MoNtHs – said like she suffered in POW camp

  34. Looks like a gay black athlete is more important then an marine

  35. I wish the news gave this much attention to individuals released from American prisons.

  36. Those Russians sure know how to negotiate. Took Biden to the cleaners haha. I imagine they look at Biden the same way a professional card shark looks at some rich guy that thinks he can gamble after reading a "Cards for Dummies" book while on vacation in Vegas.

  37. Moron just killed thousands of people by being a pot smoking dipshit. She should be shunned the rest of her life.

  38. Oh.. you again , Hi Felicia, bye Felicia.

  39. Brittney, if you can't do the time, don't commit the crime in Russia! I've noticed, the LGBTQ perverted, the ILLEGAL immigrants & Muslims are treated better than our American Soldiers & us Citizens! WHY? Are the better than us?

  40. reading about the "tragic" conditions she had to face while in prison for a crime she committed, such as being over 6 feet tall and not given a bed that can accommodate her height, or homophobia and racism and 16 hours of hard labor a day. on top of that now it's about the cold conditions. well clearly she wasn't raised in the ghetto where those conditions are everyday life or worse. there are people working 2 or 3 jobs to support their family and they hardly complain. the only place normal people will see the inside of a private jet is if we're cleaning it or lining up to see it at an air show.

    all i know is if i was dumb enough to pack vape cartridges on a flight and then got caught, i don't expect anyone to sympathize for me. i'd expect people to say 'did you hear about the moron who got caught with..' it's actually common sense not to pack anything that could be interpreted as illegal; like packing a live cat in my suitcase or fireworks, explosives, guns, ammo, fruits, excessive amounts of cash, etc. i remember when i was passing through security at an airport and forgot i had a waterbottle in my bag how fast security jumped on my ass. it's a different world when you're a celebrity.

  41. Grinder needs to fire her agent!!! Saw an interview on PBS with agent who is part liable for her bringing control substances in foreign country. Agent should have done the legal leg work in terms of if whether or not such “.substances” were legal. Grinder should have done the same. But Agent claims she did so much after the fact compared to caring for clients, ensuring safety, and alike before Grinder departed.

    Agent needs to be fired!!! Caring after the fact is equal to not caring at all. Ignorance is no excuse for not knowing the law of any sort, be them foreign or domestic!!!

  42. That's the thing about American veterans. No one cares. It shows in the media, it shows in courts, in shows in our society. Rarely do you ever see one ask America to give up something for him, yet millions have given up all for America.
