People are insane. We traded a Russian arms dealer for that.
I know it does not make any sense.
biden is insane. Trump2024
@@stickapot3623 Yes President Trump
She broke the law in a foreign country.
Reading the comments on this video reveals why I think people are SH!T! There is so much racisn, sexism, and unnecessary meanness here. BG made a mistake. She deserves respect and kindness, not trolling and rudeness. I just bought her book! I doubt any of the haters on this thread have the desire or inclination to actually read a book.
Holdup. Unlawful? She had cannabis in a county where it is illegal. So her sentence was totally legal and legitimate
Her sentence was way too harsh even for a local. The punishment should fit the crime.
@@raephaelemasirnille5794it was not .her sentence was within the framework of the Russian criminal code
Glad this BLACK NBA WBNA is home!!!!!!
Love it! Had she been WHITE she'd NEVER been arrested!!!!
Interesting that many of the comments in the comments section are written by people who have never travel outside of the US. In Canada, you can be fined for putting your foot on a seat when riding public transportation. Nobody jailed Pamela Anderson Lee when she overstayed her visa. Hypocrites! So many people unknowingly break the law when they travel.
Brittney never left the airport. When people enter a country thats not their own they might be ignorant of the laws. She wasn't in Russia selling drugs. She should have been turned around and sent back to the US, ban her from ever enteting again. And her original sentence was way too harsh even for a local.
Take that up with the Russian government
@@zt1053 I don't need to take up anything with the Russian government. I only expressed an opinion. You do know what it means to express an opinion, right?
@@zt1053💯💯💯
@@raephaelemasirnille5794 you’re making it sound like it was the US government that Sentenced her. it was a foreign government so that’s who you should be mad at
@@zt1053 How am I making it sound like the US was responsible for her trouble in Russia? Biden fought hard to get her back. Your statement makes absolutely no sense.
1st off it was not an unlawful detainment. Who are we Americans to tell another countries laws should or should not be. That was a lawful detainment in Russia.
It may have been " lawful", but it's also "pure evil".
@@sandycarter5300 Pure evil? It's just the law there. She knew the law, and she chose to break it. I smoke, but I'm not going to Russia either. Follow there laws or don't go there. It's pretty simple.
You do crime, you do the time. I mean seriously look at the trouble she caused, and she had the nerve to kneel at her games when they played the national anthem. I mean seriously wtf.
And, I don't know if that guy they got is a spy, and if he was I'd still not know because they ain't going to tell you, but somethings wrong there because if he was innocent he'd be home.
So it's not evil. It's the law, and thats all that needs be said about it.
Bet...Don't complain about those in Turks & Caicos being held for ammo and facing 12 yrs.
Trevor Reed was incarcerated in a Russian prison for being publicly intoxicated and fighting with Russian police, however, there was no righteous indignation about following Russian laws when President Biden negotiated for Trevor’s release from a Russian prison. The difference in attitude is obvious!
@@ChiGirl-jj6vi so what are saying is that bad or good. Because I think Biden should of left him there. You shouldn't go to other countries and crap on their law. I mean hitting a cop is a given in every country to be illegal.
The only one I have a difficult time judging is that wheeler guy. The supposed spy, but the Russians must have found something to implicate him. Their not cavemen they have judicial system, and if he was innocent most likely he'd be home by now.
I don't think after the result of that experience, 😕 she should now take that on as a purpose, please.
Whoever these people are ain’t no journalists 😂😂😂
And you are 😂😂😂
I would really like to watch the entire interview. Hulu won't let me because I live in Europe. any suggestions?
Unlawful detainment?! She committed a crime!
All criminals should be in prison. Can’t wait to see Trump there!
@@ChiGirl-jj6viTDS goblin
Yes.....that's why it is at the Supreme Court.......because there's existing laws for the crap they are doing. I'd assume you feel the same about Hunter?
@@ChiGirl-jj6vi yikes as an independent it became very obvious to me other people that were the real fascist trying to jail their political opponents are the ones that were calling everybody else fascist. Projection is a real thing and it should scare you that he didn’t commit a crime and people are trying to jail him.
😮 my Good gawsh!! No crime was committed; SHE MADE A MISTAKE~😢
LOL what a pathetic puff piece ESPN tried to do. Dear lord this was so cringe. Remember the Merchant of Death was traded for this person who brought drugs into another country.
Such a deep voice
That’s a dude
This was an excellent interview! It was conducted with intelligence and heart from interviewer and interviewed! Excellent and enlightening!
It really was
LMAO, it was a softball interview that was nothing more than pr for BG new book. dummy
BG = Bubble Guts. You know that same feeling you get when you turn on the tv and see a WNBA game.
Watch the movie. MIDNIGHT EXPRESS. Some scary shit in these countries
Should've left her there
Why?
@@livinginamerica to face the consequences of her actions duhh
*him
I 100% believe she had misstep (broke Russian law) which unfortunately cost her a prison sentence. Please forgive yourself🙏🏽. You are loved respected on so many levels this too shall pass.
Wyoming treats women the same way that Russia treated Britney for same thing she did.
You mean Wyoming puts criminals in jail?
31% for Murray usage vs 26% Jokic
Jokic is like Scottie P hahhahahaa
We love you B. G , don't listen to the homophobic racist haters. l am sorry you were used as a pawn ,we are all human and make mistakes!
Right so she was forced to bring drugs into a foreign country
It's a dude
The worst trade of ALL trades
And where is Paul Whelan?
Don’t do drugs folks.. but if you do, don’t bring them to Russia ffs 🤦
Omggg she wrote a book 🤦🤦🤦
Her cannabis oil was legal here and she made a mistake.
Millions of people use cannabis for pain relief.
Yeah you’re fucking right she wrote a book. And? What’s the issue? It was THC dude. Jfc maybe get some and calm yourself. 🙄 so fucking empathic it makes me sick.
Yes, SHE wrote a book. Trump is so illiterate that he needed ghost writers to write his books for him.
Yes, SHE wrote a book. Unlike Trump who is so illiterate that he needed ghost writers to write his books for him.
So the takeaway here is you don't give a damn what the law is you feel you are above it?
I don't think anyone feels they are above the law. I think most people feel the punishment should fit the crime. Her punishment was way too harsh. I think they were originally talking 10 years in prison. .... that's insane to most people
@@raephaelemasirnille5794 who are you to decide what a foreign country’s punishment for a crime should be? How about just don’t break a law so you won’t have to get punished
@macewindu789 I expressed an opinion. Am I not allowed to have one? The comment section of you tube is all about people expressing their opinions. Perhaps you should look up the word "opinion".
😂😂😂😂😂😂🤷🏿♀️
Still was the worst trade in American history
She was the best trade. Paul is a real spy.
Right! They should have traded that whore insurrectionist Trump, instead!
Did you watch the interview? She said she was surprised he wasn’t on the plane! It is not her fault they chose to keep him! It’s all apart of their crazy propaganda
Idk, we traded thousands of lives in Vietnam for a bag of chips
6:10 6:10 then other that the u.s. paid for also Russia with heldhim, so its russias fault for lieing..
your 15 minutes of fame is over brittany. accept it.
Go suck *":'"*;''"*
Brittany Griner is the closest thing to a father I've ever had
Yep...a dude.
🤣🤣🤣
So, your father is a woman and your mother is a man. No wonder you’re confused! Poor baby!
Lmfao
And you are the closest thing to a dummy I ever had 😂😂😂
She waited for her hair to grow back before doing an interview.
Maybe she should have done a comb over like Trump!
Brittney Griner is an extraordinary human being. I wish Brittney success in all endeavors.
For being a basketball player?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL...
Like trafficking?
This is about a human being. Who made a mistake. A really big mistake. And she made it in a communist country run by a VERY EVIL man, Putin. There’s no comparison between Russia’s communist court system & America’s. The punishment was extreme & I’m beyond happy for her that she’s home. Refusing to have compassion for someone’s suffering, in this situation, is both mean-spirited & arrogant. Britney owned her mistake & seems genuinely humbled by the experience. There are many, also in the public eye, who could learn from her.
she is trying to sell a book, you tool
I totally agree with you and Americans should be ashamed of ourselves. We are racist and evil.
Gross
Booohooo BG move along go get medicated
Save your tears for Trump when get gets the opportunity to dwell in an American prison.
We should've let her stay over there 💯💯💯
"She" is a disgrace
Get over it!
And we should send you over there. We don’t need people like you in this country.
Yes, then she could watch Trump’s porn tapes when he was in Russia when Putin filmed him letting Russian prostitutes pee on him!
@@roseamberzine5846no
Man so fed up with this show with the political bullshit and WNBA bullshit. The WNBA doesn't and never will gross what the NBA does so they can't be paid the same. Is this show called NBA Today ? And saying she wasn't at the negotiating table that helped her come home before an American soldier does not matter. Those people that was at the table and the president allowed a sports figure to come home before a soldier is a disgrace.
Thank you.
Trump’s friend Putin made the decision as to who would be released. He did so to provide racist idiots like you something to complain about.
It's all political.
Do I guess all the other prisoners of war is not as important as this woman right here
Ten months is nothing. This was Black privilege.
This guy is such a bad example of american society today , he is not even that good at basketball.
BG should still be in jail since He broke a Russian law.
We bring home people unlawfully detained
