Sheila Jackson-Lee still talking a big game about Russia.
Over the weekend, she demanded that Putin release WNBA Star/Houstonian Brittney Griner who was arrested there after being caught to marijuana vaping oil.
At a presser on Saturday, the congressWOMAN says Putin must release Griner immediately.
She-Jack says “we know that there were some issues dealing with vape cartridges and other items but let me be very clear. Brittney Griner is a United States citizen, she was a guest in Russia…and I will be demanding her release.”
The CongressWOMAN added that “I don’t want to disregard a sovereign nation but Putin has disregarded sovereign nations his entire service in this world. Anyone that is killing and attacking and destroying Ukraine, a neighboring country that is not bothering them, has no right to hold Ms. Griner. Period.”
Russian state media announced on Saturday that Griner had been arrested last month after allegedly being caught with a vape cartridge that contained hash oil.
The Russian Federal Customs Service released a video of the incident that appeared to show Griner going through security at Sheremetyevo International Airport near Moscow.
