The *OFFICIAL* Russia Is About To Invade Ukraine Thread

I predict a bunch of Americans are suddenly going to care about a WNBA player:

New York Times: Brittney Griner, two-time Olympic gold medalist and WNBA all-star, arrested in Russia on drug charges | CNN

Brittney Griner, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and seven-time Women's National Basketball Association All-Star with the Phoenix Mercury basketball team, has been arrested in Russia after customs officials detected cannabis oil in her luggage at an airport near Moscow, The New York Times reported.

You could call an "open border" a few different things and mean the same thing. You could call it a "free border," or a "liberty border" or a "laissez-faire border."

This is one of the major issues that has stopped me from identifying as a libertarian. National borders, nationalism are anti-liberty, anti-libertarian things, yet these are big passionate issues for most of the people who call themselves libertarians.

An open boarder doesn't cause anything. An open boarder simply allows people to move freely as they choose.

babe is directly contradicting himself and his supposed love of human rights when he claims that restrictive borders are part of that ideology. It's absolutely idiotic.

Wow, how incredibly stupid of her. First to go to Russia right now when the U.S. has imposed harsh sanctions on them and second to go there with a reason for them to arrest her. Did she not think that Russia would be on high alert regarding foreign nationals from NATO countries?

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

I would bet she, like many WNBA players, was playing for a foreign basketball team (I see from her Wikipedia page she has played for both Chinese and Russian teams, altho it's not clear if she is currently playing overseas, it wouldn't be surprising). So it was her, you know, job.

I got the impression that what she had was just CBD oil, which is so legal in the US you can buy it in the grocery store.

I'm not really feeling for her all that much. She could have left her CBD snake oil at home for this one at the very least, if not take a stand and not play in Russia right now, consequences be damned (which clearly would have been less than her current consequences).

I just read more. It was while she was arriving from New York - I had thought she was already in the country. And, yeah, she does play for a Russian team at this time (same one she's played for since 2015), but... Yeah, she (and any other players) probably shouldn't be actually going there at this point, even tho they get paid a LOT more overseas than they do at home. That being said, of course the US has to work to get her out.

Sure, get the 10 year process started now to get her released.

She is a victim of Russia but she opened the door. She should have stayed in NYC and said she'll be there once things calm down.

What do you trade away to get her out for her stupidity? Reduce or abandon sanctions against Russia? Allow them back into the Olympics and World Cup (not really something the US can offer anyway) Withhold support for Ukrainian ground forces? Im sure the famously independent Russian courts will go easy on her and I hear their prison system is like a ****ing holiday camp. maybe the US can send Steven Seagal over to get her out, he and Putin are pals aren't they?

He has such a poor grasp on so many different things. Its shocking.
As for senility, They are both way to old to be in the position of potus. I think the sweet spot is between 40-60 years old.
Remember when he thought that sending a nuke at a hurricane might stop it?
How about putting a moat around the mexico boarder wall and filling it with alligators and snakes?
Hey lets inject ourselves with disinfectant.
Just put some china flags on some planes and send them to fight russia. It will totally trick the russians!

So many stupid ideas from the idiot
