First, welcome home, Brittney Griner. Make no mistake about what Russia is doing with this swap.

By releasing Brittney and not Paul, Putin is driving another stake into the heart of American democracy and unity. Putin knows exactly how to rile up the Trumpian MAGAs who are all too willing to have yet another grievance against Biden, democrats, blacks and everyone who is not like them. Wait for the MSM to continue to do Putin's bidding, either intentionally or unintentionally.

Paul Whelan: have the minimal decency and courage to say his name, DUmmies!

In my fantasies, Russians would have taught Griner the difference between true, ugly, racism and her own ugly, entitled, paranoia. In the real world, I doubt her willingness or capacity to learn that lesson.

"Rarely does the U.S. government want anyone more than it wanted Viktor Bout, known as the "Merchant of Death."...U.S. saw him as a threat because of his ability to arm terrorists targeting the United States.

"Viktor Bout in my eyes is one of the most dangerous men on the face of the Earth," Michael Braun, the former chief of operations for the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, told correspondent Armen Keteyian.

The U.S. has indicted him on four terror-related charges, including "conspiracy to kill Americans."

Asked what makes Bout a threat to the United States, Braun said, "He is a shadow facilitator. He's arming not only designated terrorist groups, insurgent groups, but he's also arming very powerful drug trafficking cartels around the globe."

According to the U.S. indictment, Bout had a unique selling point when it came to weapons trafficking: "a fleet of cargo airplanes capable of transporting weapons and military equipment" anytime, anywhere. With more than 60 planes in all, it was his own private air force.

U.S. Treasury documents reveal a Bout empire so sophisticated, so complex - hidden behind a thick curtain of front companies - that even the U.S. government unwittingly contracted with two of his companies to deliver supplies to U.S. troops in Iraq.

Bout drove to a hotel and met the two fake arms buyers in a conference room on the 27th floor. There, the DEA's undercover team told Bout they want his weapons to kill Americans.

"The Comandante and Eduardo make it very clear. They said, 'We're fighting against the United States.' Bout responds and says, 'Look, they're after me too.' He said, 'But we are together in this. They are my enemy also.' "

Gosh, I wonder if he'll go back to his old ways. Our stuff to Ukraine is on the black market. How long before the drug cartels have a bunch of it?

Incorrect, DUmmy. The stake is being driven in by POTATUS joe biden.

HE did not have agree to do any trade at all, let alone agree to a bad trade.

There is a rather crude term used occasionally in sports parlance when a particularly one-sided trade takes place, whether in real life or the insipid world of fantasy sports: Trade raped.

In this case, the Joe Biden got trade-raped, which in turn he did to our entire country. And I don't have any lube on hand.

Cowboys star rips Biden over Brittney Griner release, walks back scathing tweets

Micah Parsons expressed surprise over the fact that deal did not include Marine veteran Paul Whelan

~ snip ~

Notably, the prisoner swap left another U.S. citizen in Russian custody.

Paul Whelan, a retired U.S. Marine veteran, was not involved in the exchange. Whelan was sentenced to 16 years in 2018 for espionage charges.

Whelan’s absence in the deal did not go unnoticed by Dallas Cowboys star linebacker Micah Parsons.

"Wait nah!! We left a marine?!! Hell nah," Parsons posted to his Twitter account.

"We still not voting for you!" Parsons said in a now-deleted tweet.

Parsons is having another incredible season for the Cowboys after being named the 2021 AP Defensive Player of the Year in his first season.

Parsons has 12 sacks and 13 tackles for loss as the Cowboys are 9-3 on the season, two games back of the Philadelphia Eagles for first place in the NFC East.

Biden (the US) got a really bad deal here. We got a basketball player and Russia got someone who could change the Ukraine war.

How is the administration going to explain that?

If they pounce on this story, they probably will call him the black face of white supremacy.

Being a Cowboys fan, already like the cut of his jib as a player. But now I have even more reason to watch him play now that I know where his political beliefs lie. And if he were a hardcore lefty, I'd still appreciate him. Unlike libs, I can separate politics from entertainment.

Non-white, female, lesbian, druggie, athlete ~  argh!  :argh:

In trade for the "Merchant of Death"  Un-bloody-believable!!!   :censored:

Is obvious that Biden really could not care less for  Marine veteran Paul Whelan ...

Either that, or has not the "balls" (a word Judge Jeanine actually used  yesterday while discussing the "smash & grab" robberies on the Five :-)   ...

To even try to do anything about getting him home as well!
