A US Army veteran who has volunteered to fight against Russia in Ukraine said that he prepares for battle by thinking about Tucker Carlson, The Guardian reported.
When I need to get ready for battle, I think about Tucker Carlson, the most punchable face on the planet.
Carlson has been accused of following the talking points of Russian President Putin. Mother Jones reported that a leaked Kremlin war memo instructed Russian state media to feature him as much as possible.

A building contractor and former US Army staff sergeant, who is from Connecticut, has gone viral due to his lively tweets on the Ukraine-Russia war.
He has been sharing details with his 200,000 followers for weeks while serving with Ukrainian forces. He bragged about taking out tanks and captured Russians on his account.
I kind of feel like I'm on an awesome very dangerous vacation," he said on his account.

The Guardian said that Vasquez arrived in Poland on March 15 and crossed into Ukraine the next day.
His wife told The New York Post that he joined the fight in his genes.
She told The Post that he is her hero.
Foreigners can join the fight against Russia by joining the Georgian National Legion or the International Legion of Territorial Defense.
On Friday, he made it clear that he is the only American he has seen in battle.
He said that he didn't want the Russian propaganda machine saying there was a battalion of Americans.
