The Trump administration has secured the release of American school teacher Marc Fogel, who was imprisoned in Russia since 2021 after being found at an airport with a small amount of medical marijuana. He was sentenced to 14 years in prison. BLM-activist basketball player Brittney Griner was convicted of a cannabis charge in 2022, but the Biden administration secured Griner's release within 10 months by releasing convicted Russian terror weapons dealer Viktor Bout. Liberal media and DEI commentators said that Griner mattered more than others because Griner is queer and black.
