I haven't followed the story much. What did this arms dealer do exactly? Watch Lord of War with Nick Cage. In real life, this guy supplied millions of weapons to the Taliban, child soldiers, and others. One of the most prolific arms dealers ever. I would say USA is the most prolific guns dealer of all time. Yes but “usually” they are sold to people that have better motives than what he was doing. Okay, so a Russian was selling weapons to our enemies. Were his sales legal from a Russian point of view? We sell lots of weapons to the enemies of Russia. If you could make 100 million selling weapons to the Ukrainians and the transactions be lawful from a US point of view would you hesitate much on that transaction? My whole point here is it's not clear to me this guy is any more of a monster than a bunch of people walking around free and rich in our country who have a lot of blood on their hands. The real travesty here in my mind is two-fold. 1. There are people sitting in US jails for the same crime. Freeing this lady and leaving them to rot is unjust. 2. The marine should have been brought home.

Referring to Whelan as the marine is the same [censored] the left does on trying to spin a narrative. Guy was kicked out for stealing thousands of dollars from the military. As far as I’m concerned he and Brittany could share a cell in Siberia.

I can't say that I feel any better about him being back in the US. I guess the celebration tour for a person who got caught breaking laws in another country can begin... meh. He'll they will probably give him a Nobel peace prize and espn will name him athlete of the year.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Gallup finds 7.1% of U.S. adults identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or something other than straight or heterosexual. The percentage has steadily increased since Gallup first measured LGBT identification in 2012. https://news.gallup.com/poll/332522/percentage-americans-lgbt.aspxso, 7.1% of our population is now telling the rest how they have to live. more than messed up. As the old saying goes the squeaky wheel gets the oil

What we have done is make it smart for foreign countries to always have a captured American in their hip pocket as a bargaining chip for those times when they need to trade for something. I just saw some guy say that on a TV news show. I don't know who he was, but he's certainly right.
Family is everything!
Life is precious. We don’t have forever. We have now. This moment. We can choose to love our lives now.

According to all my Math equations. The number π is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159. The number π appears in many formulas across mathematics and physics. And all the talks I have had with the WORLD LEADERS. Even my local Convivence store cashier agrees. And this is an EXACT SCIENCE according to the CDC. And brother we all know they know science like no other.
That 5.79% of the 7.1% needs to be over in Russia as well. Not here. Just saying, this is science.
