That’s great… but I don’t think he can read anymore.

Normally I’d feel bad, however it’s probably a lot nicer where she is, lol

Let her rot

So her last hope is Joe Biden 😂😂😂 you voted for this shit boo !

As punishment, Putin should make her watch the Trump pee pee tapes.

She voted for the guy that is responsible for enabling Russia’s bad behavior including her incarceration. Neither China nor Russia misbehaved while Mr Orange Man Mean Tweets was in office. She’s got a better chance of getting help writing a letter to Donald Trump.

Waste of political capital. Don’t do the time if you can’t do The time

Did her letter reinforce her comment about not singing the national anthem anymore at games

Joe, get shit done. Act like a leader!

Hey Griner. How about not smuggling drugs in Russia. Hey how about not protesting the National Anthem. Enjoy your stay

Long way from denouncing the American flag.

Oh the irony lol

It's ridiculous what she's going through but the dumb ass should never of taken anything illegal into that country knowing our relationships with them. I hope she gets out soon but my god where is the common sense.

🤡

Ahhhhahahahshshshshshs he doesn’t know where HE is.

She would have been out the first day if Trump was president. Change my mind 🤷‍♂️

Let her rot there

Why? The US is “racist” and “oppressive”, remember Brittney So much so that you took a knee during the National Anthem every time. So why do you want to come back here? Enjoy the “just” nation of Russia.

Gosh someone should inform brittneygriner that she’s not in America anymore & other countries expect their laws to be obeyed or they will be enforced. Let her stew for a little longer & maybe she’ll learn that the world doesn’t revolve around her & she‘ll learn gratitude.

Good, he needs to.

She just needs a smoke to calm herself down........OHWAIT
