    This is what happens when you have a good administration with people that actually know what they’re doing. Thank you, President Biden! Vote blue all the way down the ticket.

    Thank you, President Biden. History will be kinder than your own party has been.

    My Dear President, Thank you for the tears of joy today. Life in prison is both just and merciful. And the hostages released from Russia today gives all political prisoners suffering to secure truth and democracy for us all a reminder we haven't forgotten them. Hope, joy and inspiration have been in short supply lately. You always remind us how good we can be, what great hearts we have. We will never forget that. Please convey best birthday wishes to Miriam. I second your recommendation, no serious boyfriends before 30! God bless the hostages released and their families. We will pray for their healing. God bless the dedicated public servants in your administration. God bless you and your family. And God bless our troops. Thanks to you Joe, we're not going back.

    Freed a Russian assassin. Good job, Joe. I don’t think he understands what just happened.

    It's ashamed how much criticism Israel has endured, when war was declared on them and their hostages are still Hamas prisoners...
  • @Franlo2001
    Glad for the American hostages and their families, but what did it cost us or how much did we have to give up?. Last time with Brittney Griner. Russia made out like a bandit and they are probably laughing at the US for how stupid Brandon on VP are..
