Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. She’s not to bright. Biden and Harris are really losing my support. Griner deserves anything that is happening to her. You don’t go to a foreign country and break their laws.
Pls don’t release her, let’s put a stop ✋ to entitlement in America
Just proving to society that athletes are above everyone else no matter what they do. She knows what she did, let her sit and while they are at throw the whole group who supports her. She isn't above the law any countries laws.
Hates the US and now wants the US to save her… how the turn tables.
I have no pity, you should know better, be lucky you are not in China
Let her stay in Russia
America doesn't care lol, she's dumb af for bringing drugs into a different country. Didn't she say that America sucks? Let that is sink in 🤌🤣🤣🤣
Wasn't she just bashing the United States and now she wants The U.S to save her? Rot Slenderman
Biden needs to stop caring about this man and focus on real issues. He is a nobody playing basketball and he walked out during the national anthem. Hope he gets sentenced for life
That’s what’s wrong with people! You screwed up now own it! Quit expecting someone to bail you out for your stupidity!
Let her rot over there
Who cares. You’re not worth the prisoner transfer. The marine in the Russian prison is far more worthy.
😱😱ðŸ˜ÂSHE DID THE CRIME SHE WILL DO THE TIME!!!
LET HER ROT IN RUSSIAN JAIL🤢🤢🤮🤮🥵🥵🥶🥶😵😵🤯🥳😨😨
SPECIALLY IN RUSSIA AT PRESENT 👎💥💥💣💣 US =+ NATO AGAINST RUSSIA IN UKRAINE!!!
DISGUSTING 🤮🤮🤮👹👹👎👎👎💥💥💣💣BAD US POLITICS…..
Rev Sharp is fake praying for a gay woman what God is he praying to.. The God of this world.. Foolishness at it finest
Call Liz Cheny and Adam Kinzinger, they will testify in your behalf.
She knew how lucky she is in America to turn her back on her flag but Russia don't mess about she knows how soft her country is sadly
She looks more male than female. So flat chested and an Adams apple.
It is funny how the American justice system doesn’t sound too bad now ðŸ¤â€
Out of bounds
Americans LOVE to portray our CRIMINALS as innocent victims, especially if they belong to a minority group. She trafficked DRUGS. There is NO way to put a positive spin on that… GUILTY!
Brittany to the Russian judge – bro do you know black lives matter and joe biden is my president
Russian judge to Brittany. – what is black lives matter and is that joe biden, the one that gave Ukraine them javelin to kill Russian troops
See you in 10 years
Hay Brittany, make sure you tell that Russian judge that black lives matter. That should get you out in 10 years. Enjoy kneeling for them Russian men
I'm sorry but she did this to herself. She plead guilty and you know what's gona happen if you do this in foreign country's. She's a high profile and smart woman!! Stop!!
She deserves all she gets , it's not political it's criminal , drugs kill let's not forget that Hunter Biden be careful if you get caught with cocaine in Russia your daddy won't be able to help you , as for Joe Biden his wakes up takes drugs and goes to sleep with the use of drugs, American hypocrisy on show for the world to see , basketball star , soon she will be an X basketball star , she can maybe join the in house prison team , in joy the borsh sope I hear it very good and often on the menu .
Bring our Marine home that was falsely arrested. Fuk Brittany Grinner.
Lock her up and throw away the key. Yeah yeah naw naw. Leave her ass over their. Get that marine home. Fuk Brittany. She broke the law. Let her ass fry.
Once LiAngelo Ball, Cody Riley and Jalen Hill returned to the United States, Trump said the following: "Do you think the three UCLA Basketball Players will say thank you President Trump? They were headed for 10 years in jail!"
I bet this idiot is on her knee praying to get back to the best country in the world. Trump would have already had her back on the sidelines kneeling again! Gotta pay CRACKHEAD HUNTER a fee for Beijing Biden to get her home.
I brought illegal drugs into the Soviet Union….And you want to plead guilty??
!!! NONSENCE. So how you feel about 'Merica now???
Oh now of course she wants to hear the national anthem and the US to do something….. 18 weeks sober Britney, keep up the stronk work

We give them a killer for a ……..WHATEVER U DO
So was she a man at one point in time? Serious question
Well at least you took accountability there won’t be no sympathy for you in Russia I’m glad this happened to you maybe you’ll love your country a little bit more
Bring our soldiers home before this spoiled athlete
Maybe the wife back in America can switch teams and find a nice brother to take care of her "needs' while Stretch serves her sentence!
It's gonna be hard labor 19 hours a day. 7 days a week Little or no sleep. Nasty stale food. Contaminated water. You sleep on a bare concrete floor in your urine and feces. But good news is if you stand up for the national anthem they will let you wear your maga hat.
Brittney's yearly salary was $2 million. It's hard for me to feel sorry for her. HELLO! You're in RUSSIA! RUSSIA!
Same person who can’t even stand up for the national anthem. Maybe she needs to appreciate America and how good she had it here. That’s the problem with many Americans. They take it and our freedoms for granted.
