it is his own fault for being born white, maybe if he identified as a transgender or made hate speech towards America he would be freed

It's not a 'top priority' at all.

just what was he doing in russia ?

Maybe he should pay for an Operation in Russia to become black.

Don't u know BLM more than WLM, it's the race card. This was another of Biden's big fucking political ploys

And when they get him back, arrest him.

He's a citizen of 3 other countries. Why is it always our problem. He's a disgracefully discharged Marine. A thief and liar. He entered Russia to 'work' on his own. Not like he was left behind or anything.

Instead traded one of the world's most ruthless killers for a confused man that plays women's basketball.

While in the Caribbean! 😂

Second thoughts on the basketball player?

Go gay, black and female or rot.

fresh out of arms dealers

Pity he did not check off any of the woke agenda boxes, it's beyond obvious and obscene how much he was shafted.

Award-winning publisher and reporter Julian Assange has been imprisoned before trial on trumped-up charges, in “Britain’s Guantanamo Bay,” for over 1300 days. Biden must DropTheCharges, FreeAssange and pay him reparations—as the United Nations has demanded, FreeAssangeNOW

Funny how the same conservatives who now blame Biden for Whelan’s continued imprisonment were silent as Trump did nothing to try to free him

Isn't he a spy?

F

The failure and his disgraceful administration was more concerned about bringing home a kneeling Anti American clown Pathetic

So, TFG didn’t get him out?

Well if he treats Whelen as well as he does the border that man will never see the USA again.

Lol unless he comes out as transgender he’s stuck there unfortunately… this administration only goal is to further the authoritarian globalist rhetoric…

Trump did nothing to bring him home

This was on trumps watch.

Not as top as a WNBA player.

Banana cleaner 🤠

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement Wednesday that securing Whelan’s release remains a top administration priority. U.S. officials had hoped to include Whelan in a prisoner swap earlier this month in which they traded detained WNBA star Brittney Griner for a convicted Russian arms dealer, Viktor Bout. And yet basketball gay woman runs free to not kneel for the anthem at low-viewership games! It’s just too bad we don’t have an arms dealer we could possibly trade him for…
