minus-squarerandon31415@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up47arrow-down4·2 years agoThats assuming the republicans and tankies WANT Putin’s army destroyed.

minus-squarerandon31415@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up27·2 years agoYes, but only $6,500 per person, and it is only tax deductible if you don’t give it to a guy named Roth.
