— The Associated Press (@AP) December 8, 2022

Every level of this news story is dumb and retarded.

Daily Caller:

The Biden administration said it made the “very painful decision” to bring Brittney Griner home Thursday, one that required former U.S. marine Paul Whelan to stay behind in Russian prison, Politico reported.

Russian authorities arrested Whelan for alleged espionage in December 2018. He was subsequently convicted and sentenced to 16 years in prison in June 2020. Negotiations for Whelan’s release ramped up following Griner’s arrest and detention earlier in 2022, with Washington pushing for a two-for-one deal with Russia: Paul Whelan and Brittney Griner for the “Merchant of Death” arms dealer Viktor Bout, Politico reported.

Moscow previously said it would only consider releasing both Griner and Whelan if the U.S. included Vadim Krasikov, an ex-KGB colonel convicted of murdering a Georgian citizen in 2019, in the trade, according to Politico. After multinational negotiations, Russia informed U.S. officials the country would only trade Griner for Bout.

Let’s start with the conservative narrative that Whelan should have been released instead: I basically agree with that. In my experience, Russia doesn’t put people in prison for no reason, and I think he really was a spy who received a USB drive with classified Russian intelligence on it to bring back to US authorities. But if that’s the case, he was on an actual mission for the US government, which means he should definitely have priority over some woman who brought drugs into Russia.

By the way: no one denies she brought drugs into Russia, no one denies that is illegal, and typically, the US government does not negotiate for the release of people who committed obvious crimes in other countries, who admitted to the crimes, who no one questions did the crimes.

Here is where the whole thing completely falls apart: Marc Fogel, another US citizen, a white heterosexual male, is currently in prison for bringing 17 grams of “medical marijuana” into Russia in 2021 – the US government does not classify him as “wrongfully detained.”

This proves, definitively, that the entire campaign to “free the Grinder” was a fraud. No one can really dispute this. The entire push for the US to release this black criminal was based on the fact she was black and a lesbian, and that black lesbian press secretary said as much.

On this level, the conservatives are right. They definitely should have freed Whelan, and the media has admitted that Russia gave them a choice. They freed the black petty criminal because she’s an icon of social justice and hatred of America. (She does hate America, totally – attacking the national anthem and so on – that’s all true.)

Whatever you think of the US government agenda against Russia – and I am not a fan of it – a spy is an employee of the government, risking his life on the orders of the government, and thus the government has an obligation to him. The government doesn’t have any obligation to a drug user who gets caught drug smuggling in a foreign country.

What I am taking issue with here is the fact that conservatives are uncritically absorbing the narrative about Viktor Bout, who is not a criminal, is not Mr. Death, and should not have been in prison in the first place.

The number of conservative commentators uncritically accepting the claim that Bout was some kind of deranged psychopath committing very serious international crimes is shocking and repulsive. These people are either neoconservative extremists or they are simply uncritically accepting the official government narrative on this topic.

Bout was involved in the international arms trade. This is true. It is also true that selling guns in countries where guns are legal is not illegal. In fact, the US government itself sells a whole lot of guns.

The media keeps talking about the fact that the film “Lord of War” with Nick Cage was based on Viktor Bout. In fact, it was only loosely based on Viktor Bout. The character was not even Russian. If he’d been American in real life, as he was in the film, he’d have been subject to American law. A Russian operating internationally is not subject to American law.

The basic story here is that the US government set up a fake meeting with him in Bangkok, under the premise that they were agents of FARC in Columbia and wanted to secure a weapons deal. At this time, Bout had not been charged with any crimes. In the meeting they asked Bout if the weapons could be used to kill DEA agents operating illegally in Columbia. He confirmed that any deadly weapon can be used to kill any person. He did not say “I want you to use these weapons to kill Americans.”

The situation is no different than if you go into a gun store and ask the clerk if 9mm bullets can be used to kill cops, and he says “yes, these bullets can kill any human.”

The feds were working with the Thai police in this operation, but the Thai police ended up declaring that the US case was totally political and not criminal. They determined he’d not broken any Thai law or any international law. It took the US years to secure his extradition from Thailand, and we can only guess what was going on in the background there.

Russia declared that the whole thing was a scam and violated international law, because there was no law that Bout broke, and the US government doesn’t have the right to just go around the world arresting and imprisoning people they don’t like for things they did in other countries.

The US believes they are the World Police, that they can go around the world kidnapping people who are not in their jurisdiction and did not commit any crimes anyway. This is ridiculous and it is one of the main reasons the whole world hates America.

When the US is illegally kidnapping people and then using them for trade, this creates a serious problem where the US has an incentive to kidnap more people to use them for trade.

But hey – it is what it is.

What frustrated me about the situation was simply that so many conservative commentators will just absorb whatever the obvious narrative is about anything they see in the media. None of them know anything about Victor Bout, yet they are all calling him “Mr. Death” and claiming he’s a criminal and even a “terrorist.”

People need to care less about politics and more about the truth. There is an incentive to lie and say that Bout was some vicious evil madman, because this apparently makes what Biden did seem worse. But if you lie for political purposes like that, you’re really no better than the Jews.

Acknowledging that Bout was not a criminal and was illegally kidnapped by the terrorist US government, which thinks it’s the boss of the world, doesn’t take away from the lunatic nature of Biden working to free a woman who committed a drug crime just because she’s is black, lesbian, and hates America. It doesn’t change the absurdity of picking her over a spy who was actually working on behalf of the government.

The truth will set us free. We have to put the truth first. Nothing good ever came from lies. Lies just make everything worse.

What exactly is the deal with the WNBA?

I don’t get it.

]]> Ginormous Bitch Griner Describes Russian Penal Colony as “Too Grindy” and “Not Fun” https://www.anglinarchive.com/2022/11/16/ginormous-bitch-griner-describes-russian-penal-colony-as-too-grindy-and-not-fun/ Wed, 16 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Nah, she didn’t really say anything. She’s locked up in a train on the way to the gulag.

So great.

Russia is awesome.

New York Post:

Brittney Griner will endure merciless conditions inside a Russian penal colony — where rancid food, extreme isolation and tyrannical wardens await the WNBA star, former Russian prison inmates, their relatives and penitentiary experts told The Post.

Former US Marine Trevor Rowdy Reed, who spent nearly 1,000 days detained in Russia, was freed in April in exchange for Konstantin Yaroshenko, a Russian pilot serving a 20-year prison sentence for conspiring to smuggle more than $100 million of cocaine into New York.

Reed was accused of assaulting two Moscow police officers in August 2019 and spent 11 months in a pretrial detention center in Moscow until a Russian court meted out a nine-year sentence in 2020. He was later shipped 350 miles away to a penal colony in the remote Russian republic of Mordovia, where he survived nine agonizing months until he was swapped this year.

“You gotta understand, the labor camps in Mordovia, these are pre-Stalin-era prisons, these were literally referred to as gulags,” Trevor’s father, Joey Reed, told The Post. “And even though there’s a federal authority for prisons, each warden has wide leeway to do whatever they want until it makes someone angry or leads to bad press.”

Reed, 62, said his son often described a dour, medieval atmosphere inside the penal colony where Trevor, now 31, lived in crude barracks built of brick and sheet metal. He routinely curled up near hot water pipes or piled on extra clothes during frigid nights in the desolate Mordovian plains, where January temps average in the low teens. When guards threatened to forcibly disrobe his son, Trevor threatened them back, his father said.

“They said they would take them off him and he said, ‘I will take you out trying,’” said Reed, of Granbury, Texas. “But the guards never beat or abused him because they knew he was on the trading block.”

“To a certain extent, you’re starved just by the food that they give you. We didn’t show any public photos of my son for about a month and a half because he looked like a concentration camp victim.”

“Starved by food” sounds like a They Might be Giants song.

The article goes on and on with rumors and theories about the suffering Griner is going to suffer.

For the record, these camps look completely fine.

I wish Griner was going to suffer under some ridiculous Stalinesque hell situation, but she won’t. The worst part for her will be not speaking the language. I’m sure the women there are nice enough, and doing ten hours a day on a sewing machine isn’t exactly Shindler’s List.

Russian people are generally nice, actually. I’ve never seen anything sadistic in Russia. They speak more aggressively, like Italians or Greeks. But no one has ever complained about Russian hospitality.

That Griner bitch must be regretting the invention of the WNBA – as we all are. What a totally ridiculous concept.

I do love these gigantic bitches though.

Remember when that one was talking about “little white boys”?

There was a serious “grind your bones to make my bread” vibe going on there.

I find it strangely arousing.

You know the thing.

(They actually made the WNBA joke in that episode.)

]]> Russia Sentences Big Black Bitch Griner to 9 Years, Brandon Argues No Law on Earth Applies to the Blacks https://www.anglinarchive.com/2022/08/05/russia-sentences-bitch-bitch-griner-to-9-years-brandon-argues-no-law-on-earth-applies-to-the-blacks/ Fri, 05 Aug 2022 00:00:00 +0000

Is Biden saying that Griner didn’t have a weed vape cartridge on the plane? Is he saying the confession was obtained through torture or is otherwise invalid or fraudulent? Or is he saying that weed should be legal in Russia? Also, remember – this bitch didn’t just have weed on her person, she brought it on a plane for international travel. Is Brandon calling for the total normalization of the international drug trade, or he just wants it for blacks?

Is he arguing that black people from the US should be able to go to foreign countries and break the law? American blacks should not only be above American law, but above the laws of all countries?

This is the same thing that happened with Antony Blinken defending those mercenaries fighting for the Ukraine- he was vague enough that you couldn’t tell whether he was saying they weren’t really mercenaries or whether he was denouncing the Geneva Conventions as not fit for purpose.

I’m sure the State Department is giving specifics about their claims on Griner in their filings, but those claims are irrelevant because they’re not being reported by the media and no one is going to go look them up. What matters are Biden’s official statements on the matter.

Reuters:

A Russian court sentenced U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner to nine years in prison on Thursday after finding her guilty of deliberately bringing cannabis-infused vape cartridges into Russia, a ruling that U.S. President Joe Biden called “unacceptable.”

Griner was escorted out of the courtroom in handcuffs by police after the ruling, turning to reporters and saying: “I love my family”.

Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medallist and a Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) star, was arrested in mid-February as she arrived to play for a Russian side during the WNBA offseason. Her case threw the Texan into the geopolitical maelstrom triggered when President Vladimir Putin sent troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, propelling U.S.-Russian relations to a new post-Cold War low.

Her sentencing could now pave the way for a U.S.-Russia prisoner swap that would include the 31-year-old athlete and an imprisoned Russian who was once a prolific arms dealer.

Yeah, this is hilarious. Whether the arms dealer is guilty or not is irrelevant (he was probably guilty of something, frankly) – the US charged him with arms dealing and they’re saying that is equal to a celebrity basketball player who they claim is actually innocent somehow.

Griner had admitted having the vape cartridges containing hashish oil but said she had made an honest mistake by inadvertently packing them.

Before the verdict, she tearfully pleaded with a Russian judge not to “end her life” with a harsh prison sentence. The court also fined her 1 million roubles ($16,990).

Biden, under pressure to bring home Americans held in Russia, called on Russia to free Griner immediately and said his administration would continue to work for her release.

“Today, American citizen Brittney Griner received a prison sentence that is one more reminder of what the world already knew: Russia is wrongfully detaining Brittney,” he said in a statement.

“It’s unacceptable, and I call on Russia to release her immediately so she can be with her wife, loved ones, friends, and teammates.”

Haha. I thought she was divorced, but the Wiki says she was remarried.

Serious country, by the way, folks. I just want to remind you that America is a very serious country.

Griner’s lawyers said they would appeal a verdict they said was “absolutely unreasonable”. Her defence team said the court had ignored all evidence they had presented, as well as Griner’s guilty plea.

“She is very upset, very stressed,” said Maria Blagovolina, partner at Rybalkin Gortsunyan Dyakin and Partners, after the hearing. “She can hardly talk. It’s a difficult time for her.”

The Russian prosecutor had called for Griner to be sentenced to 9-1/2 years prison if she was found guilty of bringing illegal drugs into the country.

See – the media keeps reporting this like it was just a possession charge, but it was a trafficking charge. And she confessed.

If you go back through the news archives, you can find that ten years ago, American courts would give you at least this sentence for bringing weed on a plane from another country. But of course, Russia is expected to pass laws matching America’s moral imperative within days after America passes the laws, or they become an immoral country. We are ten years on from gay marriage being legal in America, and Russia still hasn’t legalized that.

Griner was detained at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport on Feb. 17 with the cartridges containing hashish oil in her luggage. While she pleaded guilty, she said she had neither intended to bring a banned substance to Russia nor to hurt anybody.

“I made an honest mistake and I hope that in your ruling, that it doesn’t end my life here,” Griner said in court on Thursday before breaking down in tears.

“My parents taught me two important things: one, take ownership of your responsibilities and two, work hard for everything that you have. That’s why I pled guilty to my charges.”

No, you pled guilty to the charges because you’re a dumb black bitch, and you’d already admitted to the police that you were guilty.

Black people always do this. I guess a lot of white people do to, but blacks do it every time. There is never any reason, in any country, to admit to a crime, unless it is part of a plea deal.

“I want to say again that I had no intent on breaking any Russians laws,” she told the court. “I had no intent, I did not conspire or plan to commit this crime.”

Griner also referred to the international politics around her case, saying: “I know everybody keeps talking about political pawn and politics, but I hope that is far from this courtroom”.

Cannabis is illegal in Russia for both medicinal and recreational purposes.

Griner’s defence team had called for her to be acquitted. Alexander Boikov, one of her lawyers, said some of the case files had been drawn up in violation of the law.

The United States has offered to exchange Russian prisoners for American citizens including Griner and former Marine Paul Whelan.

One source familiar with the situation said that Washington was willing to exchange convicted arms trafficker Viktor Bout, whose life helped inspire the 2005 Hollywood film “Lord of War” starring Nicholas Cage.

Russian officials have said a deal has not been reached. They argue that Griner – known as “BG” to basketball fans – violated laws and should be judged accordingly.

The fact that Biden is claiming she is innocent and also saying that he’s going to trade someone who is guilty for her release means that he is saying that Russia can just kidnap Americans and use them as geopolitical trading tokens. He is encouraging Russia to kidnap black Americans (I don’t think this is what is actually happening, but based on Biden’s statements, this is what he is implying.)

What if Russia highjacks a plane carrying an entire WNBA team and their wives, then demands NATO withdraw from the Ukraine as a condition of the basketballers’ release? This doesn’t make any sense.

This is literally an international Black Lives Matter case, which is funny.

Donald Trump got China to release some blacks who went on a crime spree in China. People are posting it on Twitter now – these three good boys also facing ten years.

Countries will release black people if you just say “man, they can’t help themselves.” It’s just considered a favor. I don’t think anyone thinks that this huge bitch is a threat to Russia, and could just be released with a lifelong ban. But there is no reason that Russia should want to help the US, so she is being treated the same way a Russian would be treated for doing the same thing.


Maybe Biden should go out and claim it’s inhumane because the bitch is too big for the jail cell?
