[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

As the Biden administration is reportedly negotiating a prisoner exchange with Russia in an effort to bring home two U.S. citizens, including WNBA star Brittney Griner, “The View” host Joy Behar has a suggestion — give Russia Mitch McConnell instead of the man they actually want.

This week, it was reported that an offer was made to Russia to to exchange Viktor Bout, a convicted Russian arms trafficker known as “The Merchant of Death,” who is serving a 25-year U.S. prison sentence, for the release of American citizens Brittney Griner and Paul Whelan, after both were wrongly detained.

The move has met mixed reactions, with some criticizing Biden for being willing to release such a dangerous criminal back to Russia. Of course, Behar had an alternative option on “The View” on Thursday.

Nine.

Take a bow, Andi Ortiz. I'm currently writing a comparative essay between Othello and Paradise Lost, so I'm certainly in the headspace to admire, "Just pad the shit out of it and pretend it's something," can-do spirit.

That just made me laugh. Nine paragraphs.

12. Marj will have to escort Mitch . . . maybe Boebert, too. The Russians would never let Louie

Gohmert in. The "brain dead-o-meter" would be triggered at the entry point.

14. It wouldn't work. The Russians are familiar with the plot of The Ransom of Red Chief.
