?Half of the Men in the US Couldn?t Do It?: Leaked Brittney Griner Footage Provokes Twitter Meltdown

Brittney Griner faced some harsh conditions during her stay in the IK-2 penal colony in Mordovia. After her return on December 8, the WNBA star is slowly settling in the free world. However, the decision that led to her release has left the nation in chaos. The State Department agreed to release notorious Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout in exchange for Griner. Meanwhile, Russia denied freeing retired marine Paul Whelan through the same deal. Recently, leaked footage of Brittney Griner from inside her Russian prison has surfaced on the Internet, prompting a meltdown among fans on Twitter.

Brittney Griner spent ten months in Russia and was sentenced to nine years in prison. The WNBA star spent little over a month in the IK-2 penal colony before the US secured her release in a prisoner exchange deal. However, the disappointing outcome for Paul Whelan during the prisoner swap has left a lot of Americans question the Biden Administration.
