National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said earlier Thursday that the U.S. had been working on a deal to free Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny before he died earlier this year while imprisoned by the Russian government. Harris said she spoke on Thursday with Navalny's widow, Yulia Navalnaya. Meantime, WNBA star Brittney Griner, who went through her own high-profile prisoner exchange with Russia in 2022 after she had been sentenced to nine years in jail for drug possession and smuggling, said she was "head over heels happy for the families."

Thank God these Americans are back home! On a separate note - remember folks, the more big words and rhymes you use, the more confident you sound: "This is an extraordinary day, and um, I'm very thankful for our President, and what he has done with his entire career, but in particular, as it relates to these families, and these individuals, what he has been able to do to bring the allies together on many issues. But in particular, this one, this is just an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a President who understands the power of diplomacy, and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances. This is an incredible day. You can see it in the families, in their eyes and in their cries." ~Kamala

I feel bad for the family of the other American who wasn't part of the prisoner exchange and is still stuck in a Russian prison. Sentenced to 14yrs because he was caught in 2022 with prescription marijuana at the Moscow Airport.
