Russia releases photo of detained WNBA star

Russian state TV has released a photo of WNBA star Brittney Griner, who was arrested on drug charges in the country after Russian officials say cannabis oil was found in her luggage. Sports agent Mike Cound shares why helping Griner is out of the sports world’s hands right now.

Some were unsympathetic to Griner’s plight, pointing out that she has opposed the national anthem before Mercury games and said that she would not be on the floor if the “Star-Spangled Banner” was played.

Strange how an individual who harbors dislike for a country that has given her so much, now has family, friends and democrats demanding that same country work to get her released from a Russian jail. Maybe spending some time in Russian prison will educate her on how good she actually has it in America and change her mind regarding the National Anthem and the Star Spangled Banner. How's that saying about karma go?


As someone who travels internationally I make sure Im aware of as many customs, traditions, LAWS I can of my destination. Far too often Americans think "Im a US citizen I have the right to do and say whatever I want"....as if the Constitution follows you across borders - IT DOESN'T! Im not exactly sure what was so special about this oil that she was willing to risk it all but thats gambling for ya....sometimes you WIN........ and........ sometimes you end up in jail in a country who right now RIGHT NOW is the aggressor in a unjust attempt to take over another country and has no other use for you than to prance you around to show, "see Americans we have one of yours" and seeing how unequal bias and racist America is, you maybe there awhile!....next time bring Johnson&Johnson Baby Oil!


US think they own this world, signing petition demanding the release for an American in another country doesn’t mean anything, Russia is an independent country with its own law, whoever breaks regardless from which country must face the justice according to that country. State department need to educate Americans who are traveling outside to another countries to follow the laws of country they visiting. On other hands this is a set up because of what is going on… well time for me to sit back eat popcorn and enjoying reruns of my favorite show on the tv. Can someone be kind enough to let me know if this will work out


A great country? Yeah for you maybe... but I would admonish you to research what she has seen government's have done to her and her 'mother's and fathers' ... the indifference of your American experience is waaayy different than hers/ours... although I agree that I wouldn't want to live anywhere else... for you to say that, as if her experience here in the US has been as great as yours is irresponsible and shows callousness of heart... (side note: she is only a celebrity because of her tremendous talent therefore having a better experience than most blacks while she makes millions for the entity she works for)


I think, that either it’s a lie, just keeping her as distraction now during their brutal attempt to take Ukraine murdering countless. OR, she did have it in her bag, and as an athlete or tourist, Russia wouldn’t care as she’s leaving, so again, “the police” do what they’re told over there. Either way, even this news wouldn’t likely get out, as we all know, just as Russians do, that Vladimir Putin controls all news. He’s basically a living version of a villain in a James Bond 007 movie, only quite real. Regardless, he definitely knows she’s in custody. Nothing passes him. He’s basically like Hitler, he’s got everyone scared so they do as their told and rat each other out. That’s what a tyrant does in a dictatorship.


Airbnb said it will help shelter some of the nearly 700,000 people who have fled Ukraine as Russian forces continue their assault of the Eastern European country. The initiative comes as the U.N. refugee agency on Tuesday warned that Europe would soon be dealing with what it called the continent's "largest refugee crisis this century."

"Airbnb.org is prepared to offer housing of up to 14 days for up to 100,000 refugees fleeing Ukraine," a spokesperson told CBS MoneyWatch in an email. The organization works with nonprofits on the ground to book and coordinate stays for refugees, who also receive a range of other support in their new lives,

SAY NO TO WAR


I was cured from stage 3 Prostate cancer with Doctor Nelson herbs after undergoing 6 chemo with no success and my PSA was very high. Herbal medicine cured me completely. I was recommended to him through this news blog where I saw series of his previous patient who have been cured from different disease with his herbal formula, I placed an order for his product which I received at my address through dhl service and with his directions I used his product for 21 days after completion, I went for another cancer diagnosis which came out negative to cancer cells and my PSA was completely reduced. I recommend him to anyone with; Diabetes, Cancers, Full Body Detox, HPV, EBV, Fibroid, Scabies, Fibroid, Yeast infection, Arthritis, Blood Clotting, Prostate, Herpes Virus, Erectile Dysfunction, Cholesterol, COPD, Lyme Disease, Asthma, Psoriasis, Yeast Infection.
