1. BS

Not a peep from this author when regular Americans were incarcerated in Russia on dubious claims. Why her? Because she can dribble a basketball really good. Is that enough that we should weaken our Global Strategy for one person?
Was this LGBT person not aware of Putin's stance on Gay and Lesbians? Was she confused about the War in Ukrain going to strain our relationships? Was she not aware that most other countries are crazy strict on drug smuggling?
Or did she care not because she was making a buck and screw principles.
