Brittney Griner, known for protesting the American national anthem in 2020 because of George Floyd and her hatred of the country has had her detention in Russia extended yet again. Gee, too bad for you Brittney. I have absolut4ely no sympathy for Griner who was arrested at Moscow airport with drugs last year. As far as I’m concerned, the Russians can have her and her American hating ways. She’s a Marxist, so she should feel right at home in Russia.
Better start learning that Russian national anthem. No one in America cares about you Brittney Griner. The WNBA doesn’t even mention you, the media is too busy with the January 6th clown show, and Americans are dealing with record inflation and gas prices.

Brittney Griner has been wrongfully detained in Russia for 117 days. She hasn't spoken to her family or friends or wife, only able to correspond via censored mail and her lawyers. The administration's silence and inaction are deafening.

Trump got the Ball brothers released from China even though they gave him shit. Joe Biden hasn’t done a damn thing for Brittney Griner. Not a peep. Oh yeah…he’s racist.

It's bad enough that sports media are ignoring Brittney Griner. The reaction from male athletes is even worse.
