He didn't give a speech. You lie ABC.
I keep hearing what she said, but she hasn't given a single interview in person.
It’s a he not a she. This is all so dam silly. He knew he shouldn’t have brought dope into Russia and did.
Nigga you gay
A terrorist is free for this??
Should have just left the reggin to rot. Brandon will just sign off on anything put in his desk. Its like elder abuse
Ahahaha bet she LOVES the US now 😂😂
She should still be in prison, what an embarrassment
F… That Pothead, what has that she/man done for our beautiful USA. F…. Biden. He definitely made the wrong trade. Our Marnie is way more important. 100 times more.
Trade a war starter , killer for what
a black mentally retarded american hating trans
but leave a hero hetro white male behind.
Americans are total fools
TRADED TO AN ARMS DEALER. BAD TRADE😂
She's what the world needs right now 😂. The poster child for every liberal. Break the law but play victim
He better be grateful. Yes, he is a he. Any ungrateful words coming from him will be condemned by the majority who are not very happy with his release when there are heroes still waiting to come back home.
Oh so the USA is now her home? If she kneels she gets sent back. Worst trade in history!
What a facade. The Merchant of death for this "thing"? Another botched Biden blunder!
YAHWEH FATHER, YAHSHUA SON, HALLELU YAH
THE NAME YAHSHUA MEANS
YAHWEH IS SALVATION
REDEMPTION THRU THE BLOOD OF YAHSHUA HA MASHIYAH.
CALL ON YAHWEH YAHSHUA
AND RECEIVE RUACH HAKODESH.
AND BE SAVED, ACTS 2:21, ROM 10:13
ACTS 10:43, JOEL2:32, PS 99:6, IS12:1-4
PS 118:14 YAH IS MY STRENGTH
Has this Griner person praised her Freedom from Russian captivity and will this gender keep kneeling making BLM statement🤔
Love America Brittany!
We never wanted you back. You broke the laws in another country. You Disrespect your own country. Glad to see that Biden hates our military as always.
Just don't play the national anthem
Send her back to Russia… Better yet north Korea!
So… perhaps Russians should come to America and not adhere to your laws. A basketball player for the #1 Arms dealer the world has ever seen.
As Brittney is basking in all this non deserved glory, Viktor is working directly to assist Russia.
I would like to see the final financial total that was wasted by the American government to bring her home.
Is there not any judgement past upon Britteny for playing basketball for a team who's owner is a devout Putin supporter?
All 20 of the people who cared? Lmfao. Everyone else knows this was an idiotic deal made by the most inept administration the United States has ever had. Not to mention it's a man competing in a woman's league we have the photos to prove it.
It could care less about the other detainees. Its home now so enjoy all the CDB vape you want. The govt didn't do this out of the goodness of their hearts. The lesbian or a Marine. Which would bring more votes??
Will she stand for the flag ??? Ask that question
Maybe Bj Penn is on to something with his comments about BG, athletes will do anything for that dollar bill. 🤣
Biden admin has to be the worst negotiators of all time. Traded a shark for a guppy. 👏🏼
📌Brittney Griner was flown home from Russia to San Antonio on a G550 at taxpayer expense. A G550 burns around 400 gallons per hour and the cost per hour is $7,500. It's 14 hours of flight time between Moscow and San Antonio. But first you have to get the jet over there. So roughly 28 hours of flight time at $7,500 per hour adds up to $210,000. Now for all the liberal idiots let's look at how "un-green" this was. A G550 burns 400 gallons per hour, she caused 11,200 gallons of jet fuel to pollute our planet. She's also being treated at Brooks Medical Center, a MILITARY hospital on your dime.
Only in America can a person who uses drugs, kneels for our national anthem, and promotes green living, get this treatment – on your dollar. What's really sickening is incompetent Joe Biden left the marine still in a Russian prison.
Did you know that America had a
choice between Britney Griner and
Paul Whelan. This administration
should've brought back the American
who did not go down on bended
knee. Britney is a disgrace to
everything that real Americans go
through every day. I hope she blows
up both her ACL's and her Achilles up
on the first game she plays
It can not only fetch a ball but it can speak
She forgot to kneel AND KISS THAT SWEET AMERICAN SOIL
Oh this gives me chills alright. Just not chills of joy. This is idiotic. Fu*k this woman, she shoulda stayed locked up. And let’s be honest here. What the fu*k does she think she’s gonna do? She can take her advocacy and shove it up her ass.
Fucking sorriest “American” in this country
Screw this man and screw her. She can't stand up for the national anthem she practically hates the country that just saved her f**** life and now how many Ukrainians and other innocent civilians are gonna die because who we had to trade to get her back innocent lives for AWNBA player who hates our country what the hell are we thinking. Even If we got the marine back it wouldn't Have been worth it what the h*** do we need a country hating basketball player and a court marshaled marine for. Honorably serve my country for over 2 years in Iraq. We don't need either one of them in this country.
What a joke.
Shame!
ASK HER IF SHE'S PROUD TO BE AMERICAN
Biden administration would have exchanged Bin Laden 😂🎉🎉🎉
L if this one had spine she would have rejected it
Being a celebrity in the USA must be incredible! They can thumb their noses at international laws, even murder spouses and get away with it. She moved to the front of the line because she can bounce a ball? 😜
The lord blessed us with the gift of bg
This Christmas
It is hard to imagine the agony she suffered but in the end her return is all the sweeter
Thank you Lord for the people who stood in there and did not forget about her
Loser.
