That is a description of the "small picture". The "big picture" is a clever Russian plot to PUNISH the US for supporting the Ukraine in their gallant, and righteous cause to defend themselves from an unprovoked attack by a SUPERPOWER!

Brittany Griner is only a PAWN in a clash of SUPERPOWERS................bring Brittany home!!!!!!!!!!

We do know she is a liar as she changed her story.

Unbelievable. Put yourself in her shoes if that is at all possible.

U.S. may do '''2-for-2''' prisoner swap to get Griner, Whelan out of Russia: Ex-ambassador - ABC7 San Francisco

I did see some of these lady basketball players in the airports when flying from San Francisco to Minneapolis and back from 1986-1991 or so. Probably women from one of the SF Bay area college teams or who were there to play them.

They were often almost a head above everyone else.

And they will be able to get Marc Foley swapped out along with the two miscreants Griner and Whelan.
