Former Vice President Mike Pence on Friday reacted to the prisoner swap President Biden negotiated with Russia for the release of U.S. basketball star Brittney Griner.
"You have to understand, we are constantly working to bring Americans home from captivity, but what we did in the Trump-Pence administration, was turn our diplomats loose and use the economic power of the United States to secure the freedom of those Americans," Pence said, touting the 2018 release of an American pastor from Turkey and hostages from North Korea.

President Biden said Thursday morning that Griner "represents the best of America," according to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.
