Why would you go behind enemy lines and raise money when you can just do it at home domestically and give it to Ukraine that way. Kind of stupid.

[joedirt]

Why would she go back to Russia, if she was raising money for Ukraine.

[bombaybeach]

Why did she go back to Russia? I just don't understand this.

This is a prime Darwin award nominee right here. You raised money for a country's enemy that they are at war with and thought you could roll up in there with no consequences? Just dumb.

Wth she doing in Russia? She could do that crap legally in LA! At that point you just need to see her as a Russian woman who got citizenship in LA for legal reasons or something.

[amyyoung]

Good. Russia knows how to handle their third columnists.

[bobbymoss]

LMAO, how does it make sense that a person can have dual citizenship for 2 countries that have engaged in cold war?

[Modernaire]

Yeah, because they don’t have enough money in Ukraine we’re not giving them enough, so why not raise money to help Ukraine because again they’re not getting enough and I’ll help is stopping soon
