White House denies Brittney Griner would be home if she were a straight man

"If it was LeBron, he'd be home, right?" Phoenix Mercury coach Vanessa Nygaard told the media on Monday."It's a statement about the value of women. It's a statement about the value of a Black person. It's a statement about the value of a gay person. All of those things. We know it, and so that's what hurts a little more."

WNBA player Brittney Griner, who has been detained in Russia since February 17, recently wrote a letter to President Joe Biden, asking him not to"forget about me and the other American Detainees." Above, Griner during the 2021 WNBA semifinals in Tempe, Arizona.Nygaard's remarks came after Griner wrote a letter to Biden, pleading for him to not"forget about me and the other American Detainees.

Well to be honest Lebron is an American icon and Griner is someone who pissed on America and broke another country’s laws. So we don’t want her back

ASAP Rocky was home in a month after jumping someone… This “Pres” can’t get this Olympian girl home for vaping and it’s been six months!?! She better call on someone else.

If Lebron was in the same situation, the same result is the outcome.

Can’t blame Biden for her situation. She was carrying illegal drug in another country which had just begun war then tension with the US. So not a good situation for her.

Trump brought home prisoners from North Korea and A$AP Rocky. Biden can’t bring home a freaking WNBA player.

Trump got the Ball kid out of China and ASAP Rocky out all within days of their arrest. Hmmmmmm

I am so sick and tired of people saying nobody is helping Brittney because she’s a woman, or she’s black or she’s gay. What about the white guy who has been in prison for YEARS in Russia

Lebron probably wouldn’t be dumb enough to smuggle drugs Probably.
