minus-squarerandon31415@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up40arrow-down2·edit-211 months agoThats assuming the republicans and tankies WANT Putin’s army destroyed.

minus-squarerandon31415@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up18·11 months agoYes, but only $6,500 per person, and it is only tax deductible if you don’t give it to a guy named Roth.
minus-squareVent@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·11 months agoRoth is a true homie, you take that back! His tax deductibleness is way better in the long run in most circumstances.
