Paul Whelan says he doesn't 'understand' why he's still in Russian captivity after Brittney Griner was freed

[Lesh]

Yeah. The White guy is innocent and has been there longer.

Ok. And how do you convince Putin to let go m go when he doesn’t want to?

 

[DigitalDrifter]

It's amazing to see so many believing this was a good trade.

Seems like Joe could have gotten a 2 for 1 on this.

Russian government doesn't care about people. We do, so they have leverage. We dont

A gay American of color was thankfully released from wrongful detention in Russia.

The racist, bigoted right exhibits its displeasure by launching a campaign of misinformation, lies and partisan attacks against the Biden Administration.

The answer is,
He's the wrong race
Hes the wrong sex
He loves this country

As if on cue…

The racist, bigoted right opposes Griner’s release for no other reason than her race and sexual orientation.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

Griner was anything BUT a "drug trafficker".

True.

But she is black and gay – for conservatives those are crimes much worse than drug trafficking.

 

[CarlinAnnArbor]

The answer is,
He's the wrong race
Hes the wrong sex
He loves this country

That's what the RUSSIANS said.

They understand you

 

[CarlinAnnArbor]

True.

But she is black and gay – for conservatives those are crimes much worse than drug trafficking.

Again you lie. She HATES this country. Yet look what Biden did for her.

If you expect an ounce of gratitude from her now, you're in for a shock. But I'm sure you know. You're the same

yeah that’s it…not that xiden got out played by putin once again and released the Merchant of Death

Anybody who travels to Russia or any other place that is not free deserves what the get.

Both should rot in a Russian prison.

Whelan sounds like he has it made, a CNN interview while in a Russian prison. Not a bad gig.

It pays for Russia to keep him in the public eye.

Look at the deal they got from Biden for this America hater

 

[Superbadbrutha]

of course we do. she has spoken.

she admitted guilt. you simply are making things up again

There are alot of folks who have been forced to admit guilt or are you denying that history, again.

 

[Toro]

Why didn't Orange Jesus free him, then?

 

[Marener]

Russian government doesn't care about people. We do, so they have leverage. We dont

Although I disagree with you on so many things, you nailed it on the head here.

 

[Lakhota]

Whelan was born in Canada. He holds citizenship in at least FOUR countries. Why doesn't Canada negotiate for his release?

Who is Paul Whelan, the ex-US Marine jailed in Russia?

The former US Marine has been sentenced to 16 years of hard labour in Russia on suspicion of spying.

Surprisingly well put. Agree completely.

I think most people know this which makes the criticism of Biden getting Griner out of Russia even more puzzling

Tell him to ask Donald Trump why he didn't bring him home from Russia.
