?They Left Him to Rot?: Andrew Tate Goes Berserk in Scathing Rant on WNBA Star Brittney Griner?s Release

Russia released Brittney Griner last week through a prisoner exchange program involving notorious arms dealer Viktor Bout. Ever since her arrest in February, the U.S. government has been trying to bring Griner back home. However, it took over ten months of continued negotiation with Moscow authorities to free the basketball star. It is safe to say, that Americans are divided on their opinions on the release of the WNBA star. While many fans have celebrated her return, some are unhappy about various aspects of the swap deal. Recently, controversial Internet personality voiced similar concerns in a scathing rant on the Phoenix Mercury center’s release.

Some Americans have expressed their displeasure to the Biden administration for leaving behind former Marine Paul Whelan in his Mordovian penal colony. Some have also questioned the release of the ‘Merchant of Death’ in exchange for Griner. Meanwhile, controversial kickboxer and Internet personality Andrew Tate has given his stern opinion about the prisoner swap deal. His brutal rant is currently doing the rounds on social media.

Andrew Tate slams the release of Brittney Griner

Andrew Tate made an appearance on the Entrepreneurs in Cars podcast a few days back. During the sit-down, he was asked about the release of Brittney Griner. Tate was not visibly unhappy about Paul Whelan being left behind while Griner was freed. He claimed that Whelan was not the top priority for the US government because of his race and sexuality.

Tate proclaimed, “If you are a straight white male who works for the American government, quit. Because they don’t give a f**k about you. You know what the worse thing about it is? There is an American Marine who’s been accused of spying. What’s his name? Paul Whelan, I think, look his name up, who’s in a Russian jail right now.”?

He added, “They left him to rot in a gulag. Do you know why? Because he is a straight white male.”

Andrew Tate stressed the fact that Griner’s swift release was a political play to appease voters. In fact, her gender, race and sexuality played a huge part in the process. The 36-year-old then noted that he can’t believe the U.S. would release the dangerous arms dealer Victor Bout for Griner who is so “strategically unimportant.”

The social media influencer’s reaction might not sit well with Griner’s fans. However, there are others with similar opinions as well.

Andrew Schulz on Griner’s release

Recently, comedian Andrew Schulz talked about Brittney Griner’s release during his ?FLAGRANT? podcast. He stated that she was freed first because of political reasons. Like Andrew Tate, Schulz could not believe the arms dealer was released for a basketball player.

He then talked about Paul Whelan being left behind in Russian prison. The comedian also implied that Whelan was not a priority because he is a straight white man, who probably doesn?t vote Democrat.
