Former MSNBC analyst and U.S. Navy veteran Malcom Nance appeared Monday on The ReidOut from Ukraine, where he joined the International Legion of Territorial Defense to fight Russia’s continued invasion. For Nance, the war is personal, and he could no longer be a bystander.

We’ve been hit 500 times,’” Nance said, adding “The more I saw of the war going on, the more I thought, I’m done talking, alright? It’s time to take action here. So about a month ago I joined the international legion here in Ukraine.”
