F*c tha dea. Do you know how much they contributed the downfall of American cities? CIA as well trafficking drugs and guns. George soros..Rockefeller...all of them did and do the same thing to this day
Funny how she doesn't want to recognize America or the national anthem in basketball games and yes she's crying for America to save her the minute she's in trouble. This was an absolute terrible thing to do.
Viktor Bout is I absolutely terrible human being. It's only a matter of time before he somehow takes what he knows and his contacts and uses it against Ukraine all for Mother Russia.
During this time, these men and women who risked their lives and everything to get him truly believed that he'll never ever get out again once they do catch him.

Call Nicolas Cage, we're getting a sequel to the Lord of War.
already happening
"I feel more empathy for America than I would feel any hate" - Viktor Bout 2022. Let that sink in!
What does he feel toward Africa, given all the weapons he has sold to those undermining African governments?
@@Herman47 well he's not a Disney white knight from Hollywood comrade, so I doubt he holds much personal emotion from that experience. The very same opinion is how I feel toward my tenant comrade.
This prisoner swap is going to be risky
This was 2010 if the US does that for basically someone I never heard about - and I love basketball. Yeah ok arms dealer for Brittany yeah won't ever ever -- eva eva happen.
@@ralphfirst8188 yeah it will, Biden cares too much about his popularity
@@ralphfirst8188 want to bet
No I won’t they’re all in cahoots the deep state and all the powerful people in the world know what they’re doing
Its not gonna be risky, because its not gonna happen lol smh
What’s crazy is if Britney Griner did the same thing in America she could have potentially went to prison longer. We freed her for doing something that is literally illegal in the country she is in. Marijuana isn’t legal federally for medical or recreational use, you can’t take it on planes even in the states.
It was a vape CARTRIDGE not marijuana. You must watch Fox News.
@@DJcyberslashit was a HASH cartridge, wtf are you trying to imply, that it was just nicotine? I’m a card holder myself and the wax carts are literally concentrated cannabis. So yes, she broke the law. What about the other guy who did the same crime in Russia and got the same sentence but isn’t famous and is white? Hmm..
@@DJcyberslash you know that there are Marijuana vape cartridges right?
@@DJcyberslash it was a vape cartridge containing marijuana, which by the way is still marijuana, is your tv even on? 🤦🏽♂️
A thc vape cartridge. Still illegal in the country she got caught.
This guy is worth like 16 Griner’s
16 million
😂👍😂
16 Griners plus 3 future first round prisoners in 2025 and cash considerations. And two future second round prisoners in 2027
@@nickreynolds8391 lmfao! Agreed!
Chased from continent to continent to now be exchanged for a basketball player 😭😭
Whoa…I didn’t realize how horrible of a trade we’ve made
I can't believe we traded this guy for Brittney griner...🤦♂️😳
The us will keep doing business with him
I think Russia won this trade if it's one for one. US should ask some draft picks.
😂😂😂
WILDDDD.. 🤯 for a bball player that no one knew about… 🤯🤯🤯
Well now u guys gotta do it again thx to a druggy basketball player😂
The World's most notorious arms dealer isn't Viktor Bout by a long shot. It's the US President and Congress, whoever that is at any given moment.
Yeah, they sell the most arms in the world. They wanted to knock out the competition...
It’s okay if you arms deal just as long as it doesn’t go against Americas agenda or if you don’t give them their “share”
There's a difference between selling arms to governments, and selling them to anti-democratic guerrillas intent on overthrowing governments.
No disrespect but now they're going to trade him for a basketball player give me a break.
Wnba player 🤦🏾
You probably didnt see how Viktor can dunk and his rebound stats are superb.
How long till Nicholas Cage is in Lord of War 2?
Not the Bees!
Not the Bees!
Ahhhhhhh
@@ubermikesocal excellent!!
Who's here trying to figure out what he did after learning that the US did a swap for Brittany
He just waited for his next paycheck to start more civil wars
Man this is disappointing
The game isn't over. What a bad trade...
Just 12 mil Dollars Deal? I don't buy that.
Remember when we traded griner for this guy and left a marine thats been there for 4 years? Amazing leadership we have. America 2022 is a CLOWNSHOW
@Belltown Daisy It means you put your life in service of your country
he was released because america needs him again not because they wanted griner
That make sense too. He probably signed something to make him talk!! 🫡
🤣 Keep dreaming
and she is black. they left the white marine who actually defended his country and was there much longer
@@patrick9654 she not a woman just a gay dude
@@patrick9654 you do know that this guy was a spy doing espionage in Russia?
Sometimes I forget that it’s real life because the way the people in power are acting like they are in a movie
"Unwittingly contracted by US government" 🤭🤣
Yea right 😂 that’s no coincidence
Поздравляю Виктора с возвращением на родину
Базарю 🎉🎉🎉
@@pr1nce.1337 🥳🥳
I’m sure he will do this business again 🤣
@@sickvick83 Probably but who cares he already out tho lmao 😂
😞
12:38 I wonder how this guy feels now that his own country has betrayed him
Crazy he was released for a swap out for Brittany Griner
I saw a video in which Viktor Bout said to a journalist that they never presented any evidence for these allegations.
Viktor Bout is the very man who made Lord Of War as his inspiration
Wnba drug smuggler for a Russian Arms dealer?
Horrible trade
That’s what I am saying. Russia slapping us with the lord of war.
Wow. His job Sounds a lot more serious than Hoops.
This guy is worth at least 10 American prisoners in Russia
Traded for drug addict
Absolutely 💯
-Mr Bout, how many deaths are you responsible for?
-Da.
I like how Louie can't help but Smirk.
It's Not Over Even when it's over
Trading an arms smuggler for drug smugglers? What a time to be alive.
More like drug users
More like someone who was using a harmless drug for medical reasons, prescribed by her doctor.
@@valeenoi2284 Stop it. lol
@@brandondenver4331 Stop your insanity? Sure, I'm trying.
Charging her as a drug smuggler and give her 10 years is like giving someone a decade in prison for having a bottle of vodka. It's just rationally dumb.
@@valeenoi2284 Lmao and you believe this? That was a lie. You’re gullible.
These DEA agents must be thrilled to see him possibly going free
Ikr
He is free. Free as a bird.
