As a black American woman who has traveled, you couldn't pay me to go to Russia.
Trust me when i tell you they are happy you arent interested in travelling there
They arent racist like americans
I know as i am non white and have been there
but they dont want people like you with your evil amerikan mentality there
As an American who has been to Russia in ‘16.. it is a beautiful country and would love to travel back. You prob have only been to beaches.. and haven’t been outside your comfort zone lol 😂. Have you traveled anywhere where they speak anything besides Spanish?
@@TheGoonSquadd She wouldnt go to russia yet she hasnt been
Amerikans of her persuasion are not wanted in russia or any other civilised place in europe
@@AlexandrawOfficial_Lexi Russia is hardly civilized.
@@TrueWalker88 You live in a nation that lets men use womens bathrooms, that has killed more ppl in war than ANY other nation in 80 years, consumes the most gay and straight porn, produces the most child porn, has the most ppl in sexual slavery, have the fattest people on earth, have the most people infected with STDs on earth, are the only nation to ever use the atomic bomb....these are just off the top of my head
doesn't matter if you feel sorry for her OR not. I couldn't imagine being in a Russian prison.
What about the marine still there? Why did they trade this person for a terrorist?
ppl who don't are just idiots. idk why they have something against her. Probably because she's famous and they're jealous. They feel like she's wasting her opportunity
Just don't bring drugs to any COUNTRIES
@@tjpotvin jealous of what?
Yo they traded her for a Russian prisoner we had over here for over 10 years for dealing bombs wanting to kill Americans ... Big Ass bombs 💣 too ... Bro ...... this was a terrible trade.....
There is NO WAY that I would EVER go to Russia...for ANYTHING.
Not only in Russia, many countries in Africa, the Middle East Like Dubai, China, North Korea, Thailand, Philippines, Central and South America.
a lot of countries hates drug addicts...
If you don’t break their laws you’ll be fine.
@@MartinMaxiepada I've been harassed by police in the United States for simply telling a cop that was threatening to arrest me for something that was not against the law, that he had no grounds to arrest me. Our experiences with law enforcement ARE NOT the same. There are thousands of innocent people in jail right now, so your statement means nothing to me.
@@enjoylife1239 A lot of countries hate. You could have ended it there.
Why is GMA holding a special about "Miss" Griner? Does the error of breaking the law in Russia makes her a victim? In my opinion this is not news worthy. Outside of putting two women from the same field of sports, Same confusion about their sexuality and height. This concerning.
Looks who’s conducting the interview that’s why 😮
More promoting the agenda
@@kingmaafa120 interesting. So this is about the two women that share some familiar traits. And the whole Russia thing is just for Griner's book.
Robin roberts has a history of interviewing fictitious people and their supposed ‘stories’. It’s all about her agenda unless she’s just plain stupid and doesn’t verify anything to begin with.
Shut up
@@agatekeeper .... Strange, these standard that we as society carry out. She felt as if she was humiliated by being forced to endure some of the things she faced in the work camp. That the conditions of her time in prison were not to a better standard for her time there.
To relate her situation as a mistake, like leaving your keys in your car. Yes, that can happen true enough by being irresponsible in a moment. But she broke a law in a foreign society and now she wishes to profit from it. Turning lemons into lemonade.
I will pray for her to examine herself and take the Bible and follow God's plan for her journey to the right way of life. As I will pray to examine myself. To come to this understanding of the media water down thinking in our world.
We may not live the life we like. Let's try to live the life God has set for us.
His will will be done. On earth as it is in Heaven.
Don't take drugs into a country that forbids it, it's that simple.
right this is so dumb in so levels lol.
@@Dtzeo503 Russia doesn't forbid drugs. They let things harder than pot in during the World Cup. The only dumb people here are the Russians who didn't follow their own laws.
She should be removed from playing. She snuggled drugs. .Now shes back in the media! WOW WHO are we setting examples for . Our future generations. Now shes being paid for interviews. Movies and shes going to pen a book. Just recently 2024 an nba player was removed from playing for life. He was caught for gambling against teams hos and other's SHE is a horrible rotten example for future females
Exactly ..he did it to himself
And I know you feel the same about the guy who took ammunition to Turks & Caicos and will be a facing a possible 12 years prison sentence. He claims he didn't know it was in his luggage. But T&C laws are strict about bringing ammunition into the coutry.
American prisons are the suburbs in comparison.
Ever been in one?
@@danzig159music, tv, sports, books, weed, cigs, wine...anal sex does happen, but you are able to make fee fees...latex gloves an makeshift lube. Have you ever been? Cuz it ain't like tv. You'd be shocked at how much they look the other way. Not every prison of course, but way more than ppl would think.
@@danzig159 somehow I think we all know her experience being in a Russian prison doesn’t compare.
They clearly don't deter people from committing crime.
Usa is a joke as far as pushments go. Some are just a slap on the wrist for the horrible crimes thet comit then they are sent to prisons . Tvs.. wifi.
This is the guy we traded the Merchant of Death for btw during a time of war.
Yep. A total disgrace. Mr. Griner got to the front of the line because he is a black man playing women's sports.
That is a tough pill to swallow…this is a wake up call to anyone who has no idea or interest about politics. You travel for your job and in an instant you no longer have protection.
Not really. Just don’t break the law.
She is a traitor
Or don’t bring illegal drugs to a country with zero tolerance seems pretty self explanatory
she brought drugs into a foreign nation
how would you like it if people brought drugs into the US?
oh yeah you dont mind
your border
Don't bring your weed to an adversarial country.
They traded the Merchant of Death for a ball chaser who was busted with pot?
Talk about a shit deal
We shouldn't have traded shit. We don't negotiate with terrorists remember, let alone Russia. ALL that for THIS waste of space? SMFH
I agre 1000× folds. When's the dealing done🎵🎶.. know when to walk away
lol…Trump getting off is the SHITTY DEAL
@@whatsittoyou5801It's her bloodline. She's a ball player to you because you come from cabbage patch kid orphans. She's a black American female, she come from the Gods. Cope
@@pljackson1018 Who said anything about the Mean Orange Man?
Her voice gotten deeper
She's a dude
Hormones
Noticed that too, definitely on hormones.
@@John-mf6ky definitely not goofy
Ok I was wondering about that
You should have been LEFT THERE to pay for your forgetfulness…….
I hope other people treat you just as cruel as you’re treating this situation
She was so vocal before she broke the law in Russia about how terrible the USA is.Why didn't she want to stay in Russia?She got a taste of her own medicine!
That's like saying "she was so vocal about how terrible being slapped is - why isn't she okay with being pushed off a building?" Two things can be bad, with one being worse than the other.
Her voice deeper then mine tf
Well she’s nearly 7 ft tall what do you expect
Scared the hell out of me I SWEAR!
Deep than an a mf
She is also more intelligent, richer, kinder than your bum ass
Scary
Why didn't the Marine who served our country still not here? Why did they bring this person? Is the Marine not having similar thoughts too?
Politics, man, politics.
Paul Whelan was charged with espionage that's exceptionally more difficult to negotiate a release than someone "smuggling" drugs into the country. Prior to that while in the Reserves he was court-martialed, he committed larceny, wrongfully used another person's social security number., etc. He was no saint. So there's that.
Black privilege...that's why she got to come home.
Blk privilege... that's why she got to come back.
Not really. An American women in a Russian prison seems scary and relavent from my perspective.
Why is this even news? She did this to herself and then wants to turn around and have everyone feel sorry for her… no pity given
She owes us no explanation, but she is never going to get the questions and comments to stop until she explains why the hell her voice is so deep. If somebody told me I had to fly to Russia to make extra money, I would just have to be broke. There's no way in hell I would ever go to Russia for anything
Is she transitioning?? Idk what they sound like before but I surely imagine it wasn’t this deep rumble. Wow
No she just not your average woman
@@jbnbdar3528 and youre the average feminine modern male thats why 10s like me will never date yall🧿
She’s been sounding this way
You're definitely not showing Christian kindness. Just being a bully. Everyone makes mistakes.
It was ALWAYS deep. Plenty of old interviews out there showing that. It’s deep for the OBVIOUS reasons.
we traded an entertainer over a marine… if that doesn’t sum up america idk what does
Sure did🤌🏾
Exactly
@@nadiebetrippinShouldn't you be twerking on a cop car Shanequia?
Biden/Harris what's the ABC committee vote
And now she gets to write a shitty book and make millions 🙄 black privilege at its best.
She should still be locked up! We let loose a murderer for a trans man
Lol
Im glad she made it home. How terrifying. I wish Paul Welan would be brought home😢
Exactly Biden not busting his ass over him like her
* Whelan convicted of espionage, far more serious than possession of a little weed. 😗
@@WytZox1if Whelan were a spy he would have been acting in the interest of the US (in harm’s way) and such far more honorable than Griner .
As Austin Powers once said....."That ain't no woman, baby!! Thats a man!!"
That's a human.
@@mamaj7104 That is a man!!! Also, watch the video of 'her' playing basketball topless at the pool. Man.
She’s human, she has people that love her, she was born for this very reason. But one has to know and have a relationship with God to ever understand what I’ve said. The negativity of life here on the internet is far worse than any of what she’s endured. Reading through the comments (cruel) and thinking to myself not one here who speaks this way could’ve ever survived what she did.
you know how cowards get down. cosplay tough but in reality... c'mon.
Viktor Anatolyevich Bout[a] (/buːt/; Russian: Ви́ктор Анато́льевич Бут; born 13 January 1967) is a Tajik-born Russian arms dealer. A weapons manufacturer and former Soviet military translator, he used his multiple companies to smuggle arms from Eastern Europe to Africa and the Middle East during the 1990s and early 2000s. Bout gained the nicknames the "Merchant of Death" and "Sanctions Buster" after British minister Peter Hain read a report to the United Nations in 2003 on Bout's wide-reaching operations, extensive clientele, and willingness to bypass embargoes.
That's the dude the US traded for 😅
@@simonlee498 I'd be careful if I were you. its unnecessary and doesnt enhance your social standings or bolster your deviations from what society says YOU should be.
She snuggled drugs. She got what she des5.. she knew were she was going and she better.. No sympathy
That’s a man Maury!
Who cares bro

I'm glad she's home safe, but people need to check their luggage before they travel. Especially when you are a person of color. People please do your research before you travel abroad.
Absolutely...
How about PAUL WHELAN and EVAN GERSHKOVICH?????
I agree. Bring them home
Talk to your government. None of them should have been there. I hope you’re not one of those people who hate the fact that they brought her home instead…
Did you watch this? Become a part of the campaign Griner is a part of to help Wheelen home and others.
Did you hear Brittaney and her wife have a campaign in an effort to bring Americans home? You are NOT intuitive! 👋
@@flyfishingbrowngirl9185this person is slow!
I am proud to be an American and this is a reminder to be thankful for what our country and military do to defend our rights. Think about Whelan who is still imprisoned and living in those conditions. Why is he still there when the US has said his were bogus charges? With tensions between Russia and Ukraine, China and Taiwan, and now Iran and Israel Americans would be wise to not travel to these countries unless they have to. This is what happens in other countries though when you break the law. US, not so much. Due to the possibility of a WW3 Americans are bargaining chips. It's our reality now across the world. Very scary. 🙏
God always bless America 🇺🇸
What does this woman have to do with that guy?
It’s crazy that if you type Brittney griner on UA-cam search nothing pops up in the search. wtf. That’s weird.
Try putting or adding a pronoun
I don't care what he put himself through, he's lucky they didn't make him serve his sentence. And he *did* put *himself* through this by breaking the law in their country. It doesn't matter what the law was or how anyone feels about it, when you go to another country you must abide by their laws or face the consequences if they catch you breaking them.
When did SHE change to HIM I didn't read that anywhere
@@swannyriver75::chuckling::
Thanks
@@swannyriver75it’s a joke grandma Karen
Do you feel that way about the men caught with bullets in Turks and Caicos ? 🤔
That is the countries rules, right ?
Brittney has been through so much. She had HORRIBLE parents, had to endure being Black, female, gay and almost 7 feet tall in an insane culture that doesn't allow that, and made all the mistakes so common to someone with that much trauma, a personal life that has been just an absolute mess. I hope she finally does her healing work, just stops all the madness and finds her peaceful place in the world.
Endure? Being black? I didn't know it was a disease.
Cry me a river. Boo hoo.
@@melissaisom6416 Sounds personal.
She had to endure being black and female? In America? Oh cry me a river😂 u coulda just said the gay and bad parents part.. that was the only struggle
Didn’t she brought THC oil to Russia? That’s just insanely stupid and dumb. Her skin color, parents, etc shouldn’t even matter in this situation and tbh it should not matter in any situation whatever. Saying this as a black man.
It makes me mad and sad that America didn’t made the trade for a war prisoner that served the country. Says a lot about the facade we live in.
When I rolled over and looked at my phone and seen BG was released I CRIED I SHOUTED AND WAS SO VERY GRATEFUL.
Yeah she’s loving America now isn’t she that’s right bitch
Absolute idiot
you are insane
she is not your family
@@AlexandrawOfficial_Lexi it’s called empathy you dirty diaper
Lmao 🤣 😂!!!! I bet you cried when Donald trump was elected too…
Naw she should still be in prison yall forgetting they traded the most prolific arms dealer for a fucking wnba player and but a veteran is still locked up its ridiculous
Someone recently argued that Griner had a previous criminal conviction in the US, can anyone confirm or deny this, as I argued she didn't and was instead handed probation on a Domestic violence issue.
America brought home the wrong prisoner
But her bloodlines can't apologize for what you don't understand behind the scenes. You are not of special bloodlines. You're just..... Pale descendants of orphans
@@AmericanMayan What crawled up YOUR ass, racist?
...but Putin sent the right one home!
This is going to be a ground breaking interview. So glad she was released.
Why?
She is a traitor.
Oh yeah it was definitely worth trading a basketball player for a violent criminal 🤦🤷
you need your own fmaily
We traded her for a terrorist. Not a marine who’s servers our country proudly
No sympathy from me. There is a high dosage of arrogance and entitlement in some Americans, it’s mind boggling. She is lucky she escaped with her life. But at what cost?
Wish I could hate a country that gives me 6 figures for a company that doesn’t make money..insult them then turn around and need their help Then live happily ever after…or is she still sad about her unfair life??? 🎻
I cannot wait for watch the full interview! I will be watching on Hulu! I’m so happy she’s home.
You're happy that let someone nicknamed "merchant of death" out of prison?
Guess if you can't see the bodies from your house you feel okay about it.
@@BD-bc6sc That is not what they said goofball.
Same!
She got what she deserved. She should be removed from playing. Shes a horrible example for future children. Now shes back in the media . Making money . Movies. Talk shows. Lenning a book. Just recently a nba player was removed from playing for life. He was caught gambling against his team and others. 2024.. ut should be the same RULES for all sports
@@BD-bc6sc The "Merchant of Death" was going to be released anyway. Biden made a good deal.
If she felt so about Paul Whelan she could have let Paul take her spot to go home, but she didn’t. I guess she didn’t feel that bad
why should she ! She is American too and deserves to come home
What on earth makes you think she had the power to decide that? You think the Russian government was taking her opinion into consideration here?
I’m sure she is grateful to be an American citizen bc if she was from anywhere else, she’d still be sitting in that prison! God bless America 🇺🇸❤️
Amén and have mercy on America too
Welllll she definitely knew she had it and more than likely had gotten away with it many times. Please follow rules and laws people. Doesn’t matter if you think they are dumb. Know where you’re going and live right.
You were there
He who is without sin cast the first stone.....
🦟Silence a - huh.
Other countries do not mess around, and the prisons are horrendous in most of them. It's advisable to always check with the state department before you go anywhere outside the USA. Know what the rules are and don't think it's crazy that they would arrest you for something that in the USA is no big deal.
Regardless of where you travel you don’t carry any type of narcotics. And for her to say she forgot it in her bag and make a comparison to people forgetting their keys, glasses or leaving vehicle on. NO COMPARISON….. because I don’t consume any type of drugs……
People in glass houses shouldn't throw rocks!
@@mamaj7104 Modest wood frame home and work for a living and not receiving any type of government assistance.
Russia has NOW given her a new found appreciation for a country she once didn’t cherish or appreciate
Does he love America now? You couldn't get him to respect the national anthem.
She has never identified as a male dumb azs.
F , the national anthem.
And yes I 'm American ....

YOU go home mom & pop too.
👋🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
This is gonna make me cry. I watched every coverage they had on her....I was praying for her freedom. This made me go through so many emotions
I’m glad she’s free, but that was one dumb trade. And to leave two men who fought for our country, that’s sad. I just hope the Merchant of Death guy is not somewhere plotting.
That's an oxymoron. It makes me think you don't care about the facts.
That's a whole male period!No disrespect ,call it what it is,and I don't know the whole story that happened in Russia, but they don't play with being gay period!!
Sounds like that's more of a concern to you, than it was for Russia, because that's not why they kept her.
Wow! This has got to be hard for her to talk about this terrible ordeal. Glad she is getting her mental health in order.
Maybe she shouldn't have thought she could get away with a crime in another country. When you go to another country you have to abide by their laws, it doesn't matter what you think of the laws or how you feel about them. She made her own bed. And they barely even gave her a taste of her sentence.
@@danzig159 This happens a lot in other countries. Your right we all need to educate ourselves on the laws in other countries. Glad she is back, and working on herself.
Yeh earnings more money talk shows ... Movies. Tv shows aon all medias teachinf our future children everything what happened AND i hope why and what she did
One country demands all other countries must follow their laws. Respect the laws of the country you visit, regardless who or how ridiculous they are.
Why is the spotlight never on actual role models?
That's a man idk what nobody says that's why the US made it a priority to get her/him out of Russia. Period. That's why Paul Wheeling is still there. The US didn't want it exposed that a man has been playing in the WMBA. When I heard Brittany speak I was convinced I was shocked. Hell Robin knows that's a man.
She vomited a crime in a foreign country not only that it’s Russia also a war criminal was exchanged with her and we supposed to feel for her 🤦🏾♀️ Britney need to take accountability for her mistake also over 40,000 people are in prison in USA 🍃

she better thank god for her freedom because only he could release her. hope she keeps her promise to help other who are there

Based on what metric?
Survey says 😮
Sounds like you know that personally 🤔
Will she continue to kneel during the national anthem?
I don’t feel sorry for her. She knew the law and Russia made an example of a spoiled American athlete. America needs to do the same with these criminal athletes that get a slap on the wrist for crimes a normal person would never see day light for. Not to mention she’s also been charged with domestic violence. She got what she thought she would get away with

I’ve enjoyed watching her ball since her Baylor days. I’m so glad she was able to come back by any means necessary. Glad to have you back BG. Keep your head up and ignore the hatred, bigotry and prejudicial comments. You are a star in gods eyes first and I wish you nothing but peace and blessings moving forward with your life.
I feel her pain, I really do, but you should not travel with drugs to other countries, everyone knows that. She's lucky, in some countries this carries even harsher penalties.
If you do drugs an travel abroad you don’t take drugs with you. Unless you are sick carry your prescription with you. Which wasn’t the case here. Stay out of trouble people.

Im from NY and even when i go to another STATE I respect THEIR rules and how THEY get down. So imagine going to another COUNTRY and that COUNTRY is RUSSIA.
Its unfortunate what happened to B.G, not only imprisoned, but used a political tool. But the truth is she put herself in this position. Some of us are too spoiled and too entitled living in the U.S.
I hope others learn from her lesson. Respect other neighborhoods, states and countries.
Good grief she is still playing the victim . She complains about the sheets and bed she had to sleep on . Sorry but in Russia it doesn’t matter how much $$$$ you have . And playing the race card won’t get you nowhere in Russia either . Russia has every race and skin color living there , so no BG wasn’t anyone special . Respect the laws and regulations of the Countries you visit and you won’t end up in jail .
Yeah she’s loving America now isn’t she
no
she still hates amerika
this is a traitor
You can criticize your country and still love it. I think if you really love your country, you would point out ways it needs to improve. Unless you think your country is perfect? Or your satisfied that it’s better than here or there or how it used to be?
She sure is and she call out the nuances as well. What's your bigoted point ?
I’m so glad she’s been released wishing her all the best.
Amerikans are so arrogant
you have the most draconian laws
you even are prosecuting a former president, which wouldnt even happen in corrupt russia! you are killing people in israel and funding wars all over
shameful
In America you have FREE speech, in Russia you DONT." At least she is not at one of the colleges destroying them, & I'm sure as hell know she wasnt at the Insurrection on 1/6. Is it that hard to understand?

Don't do the crime if you don't have the balls to do the time.
He knew that Russia isn't as lax on Marijuana as the U.S. is and he STILL brought some over there.
These comments are wild...no compassion...we really do pick and choose . An American is an American..
Those comments are the same as the ones who are for her, all misinformed. I wish people were able to keep track of this even though most don't care and shouldnt to a certain extent. But of what she says is lies, especially after seeing her smiling and laughing in the Russian prison working with the other female prisoners.
Sorry, but anyone who owns owns 0.7 grams of marijuana vape oil loves their pot; this much can easily give a person 30 or more marijuana "experiences". The user will most likely keep this most cherished product in their pocket, or possibly a bag, BUT THEY DEFINITELY KNOW WHERE IT IS. And then throw in the activity of traveling to RUSSIA, where she knows it is FORBIDDEN! No no. Sorry girl. You thought that there was no way you would get caught, and you were most likely very successful in your smuggling in the past. Sorry, deserved anything she got. A person is VERY stupid for trying to pull this off. And the biggest reason for that is that marijuana withdrawal is not that bad, at least compared to some other drugs. Some laws are just not worth trying to break.
Are we feeling sorry for here. We have real problems in this world
Regardless if you think it was right to fight to bring her back or not, why is she being propped up as some type of hero? And now she's profiting off a book about this? All of the proceeds should go back to the taxpayers for bailing her out.
WHAT!?! You sound saf.
👌, can't you just have a good laugh...the damn wo- man was really having a time of it.
Now you go buy a ticket 🎟 yes....& fly. To RRRuuuuSHA
So proud of Brittany for making it through this and coming home. Her life will never be the same but God has a greater purpose for her life. Stay strong Brittany and Heal.
This dude went through his whole life not knowing America coddled it lol
That was so scary and I'm glad that she made it back home!! Bless you and your family. 🙏
hopefully she takes full responsibility for her decision to knowingly break Russian law.
Have pride in that flag and stand tall when that anthem comes on. Those who value those things got you out of Russia.
Poor Brittney Griner. It is absolutely heartbreaking what she had to endure. She should have been able to continue enjoying her love of basketball, the love of her wife and living her life. Not to be locked in some cold, cruel heartless cell and treated less than human. Even grown men shudder in fear at the thought of going to a Russian prison. Miss Griner truly is a strong and resilient woman who endured one of the worst experiences of captivity and lived to make it back home and tell her story. Truly an inspirational example for any woman, and even any man for staying strong under a harsh, brutal and seemingly hopeless situation.
Amerikans are so arrogant
you have the most draconian laws
you even are prosecuting a former president, which wouldnt even happen in corrupt russia! you are killing people in israel and funding wars all over
shameful
Thank God you made it back!!! I teared up from this small clip.
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
No soap and toilet paper 😢
This has to be a man.
OTTO(to Aunt Selma): Were you once a man? I mean I'm open minded and that's cool but you can tell me...
I don't know much about this but I think she had a sex change or hormone replacement or something.
She’s not.
just added this to my calendar. I HATE this this happened to Britntey but so grateful she made it home safely.
lol shes the 1st DEI to actually earn it.
Why?

I know it wasn’t that easy being locked up in Russian prison as an American. That’s why when you go to them type of country you have to know there law before you step in
S"he" has shown us over her whole career who she really is- guns, abuse, jail, drugs... if this was an NFL player this wouldn't be a book or on GMA. GmA should be ashamed for giving Griner two days on the morning show...
BG's wife's name is Cherelle not Rochelle
A woman can't have a wife
Exactly wth! And why did she say she and "hu" uh wife ?! Wth is Robin going through mispronounced her wife's name and was about to call her wife husband?😮 Cringe
😂😂😂
Don’t Do Drugs!! period, problem solved
Her not knowing she had a cannibais cartriage in her bag is a damn lie.
