#1 Time Issue

Paul Whelan was arrested in Russia in December 2018, and convicted of espionage in June 2020.

So about 6 months after the conviction was Trumps time in Office. However, 3.5 Years was Biden's responsibility.

BTW:
Do a quick look into Whelan's whole history, and it is full of issues. Including a Marine 2008 Bad Conduct discharge for multiple counts of larceny.

#4 You know.
I have a little theory going on that the reason they haven't banged the gong on this guy and are trying to drag him across January, is that even the most virulent We Need a Woman President supporters are like, "Eh, maybe we don't want Harris as the first."

Biden literally wandered off during the event and got on the aircraft that brought the prisoners in.
Is he so far gone he thinks it was somehow an aircraft he was supposed to board?

No one is talking about how Biden climbed onto the jet after the Americans already got off.

Did he think he was getting on Air Force One?
