Video: Avowed communist US Army vet joins Russian forces fighting Ukraine


An avowed communist from Texas and U.S. Army veteran is fighting for the Russian army in Ukraine, according to a video posted by the man who said he was currently “on the front with Russian troops.”

“Well, I’m a communist,” the captain said after Bentley referred to himself as a socialist.

“What’s the difference?” Bentley asked.

“A communist is someone who is willing to fight for socialism,” she responded.
