I agree but doesn’t that lead one to surmise that it should be even more important to follow the rules here?

The US is a nation of laws. We value law and order. We are supposed to treat people equally regardless of their social standing, money, or political positions.

Yeah we are supposed to treat people equally but frankly it seems like there are two sets of rules right now. One for democrats and one for republicans.

I do think that is a large part of whats wrong with our country right now. Donald Trump was framed by the FBI and almost no one has been held accountable. There are honestly countless examples and im not sure our country will continue to exist in its current form if its not straightened out.

Democrats have been getting special treatment for decades.

It feels like we are seeing a flip in the status quo right now but I could be wrong.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What gets me is she thinks she is worth something in a prisoner swap. We have much more important people to swap for before her.

He's lucky it wasn't Singapore or some other country. In Singapore he might have already been executed. At the very least, he would have received several years jail time plus numerous lashes with a cane and already be serving those and received them.

Remember about 30 years ago or so, when that American teenager got caught vandalizing cars over there? That caned the shit out of him lol.

"Legal experts and U.S. officials have described the proceeding as a "show trial" that is certain to end in a conviction and lengthy sentence."

Sort of like the J6 dog and pony show. Hypocrites.

If I were Putin, I'd seek the removal of sanctions as the price to pay for his release.

She just pled guilty and asked the court for mercy.

Probably the right move. Sounds like she was guilty of being stupid. Know the drug laws (and other laws) of the countries you travel to.

Unfortunately for her she has name recognition and will now be used as a political pawn. Vladimir is chomping at the bit to make an example of her.

He's going to want some high level Russians in exchange for her. That's for sure.

Nobody forced her to go to Russia and bring weed pens with her. She thought the rules in a commie country didn't apply to her because she was making a million dollars a year. Now look at her. What a dumbass.

Exactly!!! Has this dumb bitch never seen Midnight Express???

She should be glad it is not a Turkish prison.

It is her duty to break out on her own if she wants to.

Wow now we are trading political prisoners for an athlete. Smh
An upgrade from the debacle in Afghanistan where nothing was returned. Certainly a gay dude would be worth $80 billion is arms. OBiden the biggest and cheapest arms dealer in the world. Ukraine is the sequel.

After the Mets game last night I made the unfortunate mistake of leaving ESPN on. The stupid female host of sporstcenter went on and on about how BG was denied her rights......miranda, cell too small for a 6'9 man/woman, etc.....I couldn't believe how dumb this person was. It was like watching a car crash I couldn't turn it off. How does a US citizen think that Russia will abide by our constitution?

These people vote, sit in large think tanks, and go to cocktail parties with influential people (giant circle jerk) and this is how US policy is made.

Russian prosecution recommends 9.5 year prison term for some Vape cartridges. Seems pretty damn harsh, but that is their country and their laws. If you are travelling abroad be aware of the laws in that country! She is still not worth trading an arms dealer for.
