Russia open to negotiations on prisoner swap for Brittany Griner

If it seems too good to be true...
But it was undeniably true. They've been doing it for years and Russia was just one of the places they go.

Gotta a hunch what happened is like all pros she travels a hell of a lot and she became used to just grabbing her travel bag without close inspection. Forgot about her stash being inside it. She's done so much international travel ignorance is extremely unlikely.

This is the guy who signed Griner's paychecks in Russia. Due diligence, anyone?


Makhmudov was accused–along with his business partner, the sanctioned Oleg Deripaska–of leading a “massive racketeering scheme” that included “physical violence, mail and wire fraud, and money laundering in the United States” in a U.S. federal lawsuit filed in 2003. (The case was dismissed on jurisdictional grounds; Makmudov denied any wrongdoing.) The mining tycoon is “very close to the Kremlin,” says Anders Åslund, an economist and expert on Russia’s plutocracy.

You reject the notion of you being in we with respect to the US but then want to include her in they with respect to Russia. She worked for a basketball team. I'm not defending Putin here. I'm trying to bring this back to Putin.

If she is such a 'worshipped celeb', how come no one heard of her before this?

"B.C. man faces lifetime ban from entering U.S. after border agents find forgotten bottle of CBD oil in his car"​


"As the owner of an events company doing business with Christmas festivals in the U.S., Jonathan Houweling crosses the Peace Arch border in Surrey, B.C., dozens of times a year without issue.

But during his latest trip on Nov. 7, he was chosen for a random search, where a border agent found an old bottle of cannabidiol oil, or CBD oil, in his centre console. He had tossed it there in 2019, he says, and completely forgot about it.

Now that lapse has resulted in a lifetime ban from entering the U.S.

As cross-border travel returns to pre-pandemic levels, the experience serves as a cautionary tale for Canadians travelling to the states, where the sale, possession and distribution of marijuana are illegal under the federal Controlled Substances Act.

Despite cannabis being legal in Washington state, the borders are regulated federally, and federal laws supersede state laws."




Well, well, well.....

Legal in Canada, legal in Washington state, But not legal at the American border crossing.

shocking.

Legal in Canada, legal in Washington state, But not legal at the American border crossing.

Seems more than a little fucked up, but we were told not to take anything on a plane ride inside Canada that would be a problem in the USA, since we could be redirected to a US airport for whatever reason, and they would bust you for smuggling.

You said "can not". The cite you provided says "may not".

Do you know the difference?

Add to that, your statement in Post #214 reads as if it is absolute, with no possibility of "rehabilitation"

The cite you provides disagrees with you.
The
“ may” part is after paying 1,000’s of dollars
So on face value
A felony conviction prohibits anyone from entering Canada
