President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

It's the whole lot. Trump. Cruz. Hawley. McConnell. Even Graham. They all deserve to return to motherland Russia.

 

Don't worry, Diana, the sixth grade history books are locked inside the defunded library next to books that might expose overly-sheltered kids to the reality that not everyone in this country is white, straight and Christian, so they'll never have to hear about how this country devalues the female experience, either.

 

Giving the Soviets a good excuse to crush them in the 1956 uprising.

 

There it is! Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump.

She f***ed around and found out. Now a bunch of beta white liberal males are fake upset.

 

Maybe so, but its not a big deal in the USA and its difficult to hold someone for ransom if the country doesn’t care if we get her back. Sure the WNBA is clamoring for her return, and some of the NBA players have tweeted nice things about her. But most of America is not invested in this celebrity. It’s not like they arrested Zendaya or Jennifer Lawrence. Russia is blowing up children in schools, raping every female in Ukraine and torturing and murdering Ukrainian prisoners of war, I don’t think they give a shit if some overly compensated and privileged athletes write BG on their $650 sneakers. Ted Koppel is not walking through that door, “This is day 157 of Britney Greiner held hostage”

 

Your buddy Trump was quite the character reference

 

1. Does Britney Greiner deserve nine years in prison for a single vape cartridge? Is that moral or just?

2. Should the U.S. government expend diplomatic capital to secure her release?

 

Every American traveling outside the USA should be made to watch Midnight Express on the flight out of the country. That scared the shit out of me when traveling

 

No. Yes.

 

Looked it up, gained a very shallow understanding of what happened and I'm left wondering if people don't gain empathy for someone getting ground under an oppressor's heel later on.

 

Griner's arrest has more to do with Putin's invasion of Ukraine than anything else.

She's been playing for that Ekaterinaburg team for years and has presumably been through those customs searches many times without trouble.

 

I think Butters done got triggered again.
