“We are celebrating the release of the WNBA star Brittney Griner from Russian detention on Thursday morning in a prisoner swap. It’s a big win for freedom, big win for Joe Biden. Griner was detained in February and sentenced to nine years in prison after Russian airport security found vape cartridges with 0.7 grams of cannabis oil in her luggage. They gave her hard time for seven-tenths of one gram. That’s the amount of weed Willie Nelson scrapes out of his belly button.” —Stephen Colbert
“Griner will return to US soil in a one-for-one prisoner swap with the Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, nicknamed the ‘Merchant of Death’. So to get a sports star who had less than one gram of weed, we handed over the Merchant of Death. This is how it always goes with Russian prisoner swaps. [with Russian accent] ‘OK, we give you back tourists who took unflattering photo of Red Square. You release Gargog the Flesh-Manglers.’” —Stephen Colbert
“Welcome home, Brittney. A lot of has changed. Don’t Google ‘Kanye Hitler’.” —Stephen Colbert
