I wish I really knew how to play poker. Then I wish I could play against Obama and Biden because, as they drip with desperation, they fold oh so easily. Joe Biden just made the worst trade since 2014, when Barack Obama traded five high value terrorists (the Taliban Dream Team) for a traitor (Bowe Bergdahl). I still remember Bergdahl’s father in his best Islamic beard in the Rose Garden.
Before that, the worst trade was the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth.
Biden traded an arms dealer (the “Merchant of Death”) convicted of conspiring to kill Americans for an America-hating pot-smoking lesbian basketball player who refused to stand for the American flag and wants men to share toilets with women.
Who wasn’t freed? Paul Whelan, Marine
‘I am greatly disappointed that more has not been done to secure my release, especially as the four year anniversary of my arrest is coming up,’ Whelan told CNN in a phone call from the remote Russian penal colony where he is serving a 16-year sentence. ‘I was arrested for a crime that never occurred. I don’t understand why I’m still sitting here.
But wait, it gets worse. A lot worse.
Biden has the gall to say this

The only people stupid enough to buy this are white liberals, and I bet even they have doubts. We know what’s going on here
Biden’s prisoner swap continues a pattern in which Democratic administrations swap high-level prisoners, and even pallets of cash, for Americans held abroad. President Donald Trump used threats and pressure instead.
The choice of Griner over Whelan may reflect the preferences of Biden’s political base. The WNBA star and celebrity is also a black lesbian, who protested the U.S. national anthem. Whelan is a middle-aged white man.
This trade was brokered by Vladimir Putin along with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. You might remember that Biden tried to cajole MBS into pumping more oil in order to drop prices in time for the fall election. Biden then granted MBS immunity for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in return increasing the oil supply.
Also left behind was Marc Fogel, an American teacher incarcerated for a drug charge very much the same as Griner.
Fogel worked as a history teacher for years at the Anglo-American School in Moscow, where his students included the children of U.S. diplomats, CNN reported.
He was arrested in August 2021 at a Moscow airport after entering the country with roughly 17 grams of cannabis that his family and lawyer said was prescribed by a doctor in the U.S. to treat chronic pain. His case holds an interesting parallel to that of Griner, who was arrested in February this year for allegedly possessing cannabis oil when she arrived in Moscow.
Whelan was in Russia for a wedding when he was seized by Russian authorities for a trumped-up espionage charge.
Without a doubt, George Clooney, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Lawrence, and the rest of the dipsh*t Hollywood crowd will cheer Griner’s liberation as some kind of miracle and the legions of fans of these morons will rejoice. Not a single concern for those who remain will be uttered.
Vlad gets his guy, MBS got his immunity, and loser Biden got the novelty. I have had nothing but contempt for Biden since 1987 but this is simply indescribable. That a**hole couldn’t get three Americans for a very high-value Merchant of Death. He is a POS.
He doesn’t give a damn about America or Americans. But what could you expect from a compromised President who thinks Ukraine is important but the border security is not.

More important things going on- like freeing the black pot smoking America hating lesbian basketball player and leaving behind the white American men who don’t hate their country.
I hope people wake the eff up.

Tough guy

The nation is being led by buffoons.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
Should have left the American hating scumbag in Russian jail forever.
biden got much less than he gave.
Biden keeps drilling holes on the bottom of his rowboat watch it sink and take him with it
And the Russians just laughed and laughed.
Bout was in a big hurry to get out. He heard there was a big sale going on in Afghanistan.
Everything this criminal, corrupt, incompetent, anti-American regime does is bad for America and Americans. Instead of getting dopehead anti-American Griner out and leaving Wheland and Fogle, the focus should have been for Wheland and Fogle and throw the carpet muncher in, if you want. There has not been a single accomplishment of this idiot moron Biden that has been good for the United States. If it doesn’t hurt the country and make Democrats richer, it doesn’t get done.
A Nation That Spits on Its Heroes’: Russian Media Laughs at Our Wokeness in Swapping for Brittney Griner and Leaving Paul Whelan to Rot
Benedict Biden: Pot-Head Lesbian Brittney Griner ‘Represents the Best of America’
Senior defense official concerned ‘Merchant of Death’ Viktor Bout may resume arms trafficking
Way to go joe
That Pot-Head Lesbian Brittney Griner’s voice changed, deepened a lot, after 10 months with no hormones.
I wonder how “her” dna looks.
LOL, yes
Russia agreed to release Griner, and they didn’t agree to release Whelan. What was Biden supposed to do? Leave her?
The offer was for one or the other. biden chose the lesbian.
“The offer was for one or the other.”
Please point me toward a quote *by someone involved in the process* who says that.
I don’t believe that for a second.
Evidence indicates Biden Admin picked WNBA’s Griner over Marine Paul Whelan, despite claiming otherwise (substack.com)

How great is it to be free to even say such things again on Twitter
“Leaves a Marine behind” = Russia won’t make a deal for him yet.
Or just “leaves a marine behind.”
Griner is less-valuable of a human than a veteran of our armed services.
An American has been freed from a Russian penal colony. Americans should be glad. Why would her sexual orientation have anything to do with it?
Because it’s the whole story. It’s why Biden traded for her
Did he or his spokesperson say that? I missed it.
KJP made pretty damn clear why Biden cut such a bad deal.
In your brain, perhaps.
Nope, I watched the presser, on my television set. Did you miss it or are you just stupid and uninformed?
Really. So which part of the press conference explained that she was freed because she was gay? Specifically?
Why don’t you just admit you didn’t watch (or see) the presser? Or does being honest go against your grain?
Tell me which part of the press conference explained that Griner was freed because she’s gay? Really put me in my place. Show everyone that I don’t know what I’m talking about.
Groomer, I don’t play your silly liberal “gotcha” games. If you saw the presser, you know what KJP said. Or you didn’t watch it, you don’t.
The choice was; a violent, anti-American lesbian basketball player who admitted to being guilty of breaking Russian law or a former Marine who really is innocent. The Oval Office chose the violent, anti-American lesbian basketball player.
“Groomer, I don’t play your silly liberal ‘gotcha’ games.”
Translation: you have nothing except your hatred to back it up.
I don’t think this is a good hill to die on for you michael.
It’s just one more irrational and anti-American action from a regime that most Americans do not regard as legal.
So you didn’t see KJPs presser. It is clear you are too dishonest to admit it. Instead, you want to play your silly, childish games. And like all liberal dimwits, when you have no standing, you call me a “hater.”
So at least can we establish the fact that you think the trade of a mass murderer was worth getting back a violent anti-American lesbian who has never really done anything of worth for this nation in lieu of a former Marine? Because that is what everyone of your truth dodging posts indicate. If that is not the case, then what the hell are you arguing about?
“Instead, you want to play your silly, childish games.”
No game. I just want you to provide proof of your accusation. If you could, you would, but you can’t, so you have to try to make it about me.
What accusation, Groomer? Be specific, if you are even capable of that.
It is about you since you are the one I am addressing. You can’t even be honest is your snarky rebuttals. You’re just a game player. Clearly, you don’t have the intellect for dialog and it seems answering questions would not help your agenda.
“What accusation, Groomer? Be specific, if you are even capable of that.”
Here’s what you wrote:
“KJP made pretty damn clear why Biden cut such a bad deal.”
So share what she said. If it’s so obvious, it should be super easy provide that quote.
The quote is irrelevant.
The quote is everything. Dr. John made the idiotic assertion that Griner was chosen for freedom by the Biden administration because she was gay, and retard05 said that that was made clear during the press conference.
It a lie.
It was plainly stated that Griner was released because she was gay, and more importantly, an anti-American leftist.
All of these things were stated.
Prove it, liar. If it was plainly stated, it should be easy to do.
Why are you lying? Doesn’t Jesus disapprove of that?
The Commandment you’re looking for is “Thou shalt not bear false witness.”
Biden…ahem…whoever is using Biden as a prop for their authoritarian rule, freed Griner because she is gay, black, a woman, and anti-America.
All of this was plainly stated by the regime.
Why? It’s public knowledge. Are you admitting you didn’t see the presser and that you are just too damn lazy to look it up?
Games. That’s all you lefties are capable of. Now we learn you are even too damn lazy to look up a presser that was discussed by both left, and right, web sites. It shows how painfully uninformed you really are and that it is deliberate.
No wonder you make the stupid comments you do.
All of the groomers comments are ridiculous. Why does that pipsqueak even bother? Pettiness is the only motivation he has. No substance just mindless babble.
So: just another lie by you. Another day at the office.
Not a lie. The administration finally said that they released Griner because she is gay.
Okay. Direct me to that official statement.
It’s been said, ad nauseum. Griner was chosen over others because she is gay, black, a woman, and anti-American.
That’s the WH’s official statement.
It’s only the whole story if that’s all that someone sees. For some, her sexual orientation was a reason to abandon her.
Sick but true.

Update: Biden’s DOE “Pup Handler” Sam Brinton Accused of Stealing Jewelry Worth $1,700 in Las Vegas Luggage Theft – Arrest Warrant Issued
What does that have to do with Brittney Griner?
TrumpWon’s specialty is popping up in comment threads to drop a steaming pile of non sequiturs. If he can accuse someone of being a pedophile at the same time, then so much the better, as far as he’s concerned.
Because Gay=Bi=Pan=Non-Binary=Pedophilia=Child Sacrifice
Have them wearing stupid masks like t hat proves some people are suckers for anything this freak should be kept away from everyone and everything
She should not be abandoned but not set free before Whelan and Fogel
So even though there was a chance to bring her back, she should have been left in a Russian prison until the other two were free? Ridiculous.
Why Brittany Griner? Why not the former Marine who signed on the dotted line to “protect and defend” the United States and used his life as collateral.
For decades people like you have been blathering on about how women should be treated like men. OK, so why was Griner so damn special that Biden traded a vicious killer for her? Why not for the guy who pledged his very life to protect the U.S. while she dishonored it?
It’s pretty simple; Griner checked more social justice boxes more than Whelan and Fogel do. Let’s see if she dishonors this nation again as she has before.
“Why not for the guy who pledged his very life to protect the U.S. while she dishonored it?”
The White House apparently tried to make that deal, but the Russians wouldn’t do it. It’s not confusing.
Do you feel that Griner should have been left in Russia until Whelan could be brought home?
Honestly? I think Griner should have been left in Russia…regardless of Whelan or anything else.
The only way people are going to learn that the tyrannical, America-is-bad agenda isn’t what it appears to be is to live with the consequences of their actions.
Do you feel that Griner should have been left in Russia until Whelan could be brought home?
Griner broke Russian law. And here is the deal; a) she, and all Americans who are going to Russia, are advised what Russian law is and the consequences for breaking their laws and b) she admitted she broke Russian law regarding cannibis.
So why does she deserve any consideration as an exchange for one of the most evil men on the face of the earth? Just because she is black or is it because she is queer?
Frankly, I don’t think the U.S. should be grabbing its ankles for Putin, but apparently Biden, and you, think it is OK to do that.
Honestly, I think anyone who openly hates America and works to undermine our culture, society, and rule of Law should have their citizenship revoked and certainly not be allowed to vote.
What did Griner do to “undermine the rule of law”?
Breaking Russian Law. That undermines LAW, American and otherwise.
It was a lousy deal. I can imagine Biden trading KSM for Whelan next. Putin controls Biden and so does Xi.
No. Her anti-American stances and willingness to break international laws is the reason to consider her a non-American citizens and let her pay for her actions.
As she should.
Nice try.
“break international laws”
Laws about which you don’t give a single shit—or are you now a “globalist”?
Huh? Globalists have NO laws, no authority. Sovereign Nations on the other hand, like the United States and Russia, have Laws.
Enjoy your crickets, bub.
“Enjoy your crickets, bub.”
I’ve tried them. They’re fine.
And now we know what side of this you’re on, serf.
Enjoy your cage.
An American has been freed from a Russian penal colony. Americans should be glad.
She’s not an American.
At some point, people who hate our country and work to destroy it are no longer citizens.
Griner reached that point.
Could it be that cowardly Leftists invented “LGBT” as way to allow people to break the law with any accountability being an “-obia” of some kind?
Griner’s criminal activity will not end with this.
Saying that she’s not a fan of the national anthem is not “working to destroy the country.”
It won’t be long before she starts whining about a lack of rights in the US again
Is that “working to destroy the country”?
Didn’t say it was. Biden is trying to destroy the country
Yes. It is.
No, it’s not, snowflake. Liking everything the U.S. does is not a prerequisite for citizenship.
It’s funny that you think it’s the “U.S.” doing anything.
She’s forfeited her right to be an American citizen.
I’m afraid it is.
If that counts in your mind as working to destroy the country, then you’re a real wanker. A snowflake wanker, to boot.
Did the guy who uses this account brief you on what your personality is supposed to be like?
Or maybe this is you.
From using the word wanker and nutter I guess we could extrapolate you’re a British intelligence operative?
That makes sense. You inbred fools are following our illegal government off a cliff.
You should be tending to your own crumbling United Kingdom, son.
LOTS to do there.
I heard MI5 is hiring…
