CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked President Donald Trump whether his decision to waive sweeping new Russia sanctions was linked to Moscow freeing Stephen Hubbard.

The White House posted both clips on X with laughing emojis.
Hubbard, a 74-year-old retired Michigan teacher, was jailed in Russia for allegedly fighting for Ukraine.
Andrew Feinberg was pulled from pool duty after Trump called him a 'sick person'.
