  • Ex-Army sniper Sgt. Nicholas Irving returned to VladTV to discuss various topics involving his life in the military and America's current affairs in foreign territories. He began by picking apart Hollywood films that depict war environments, arguing that movies only show 1% of what actually occurs. He also criticized the government for its treatment of soldiers once they were off the battlefield. Later in the interview, he spoke about his experiences as a sniper and being labeled a psychopath for the amount of lives he and his battalion claimed. Irving also provided tips to viewers on how to respond during physical altercations and home invasions and listed some of the legendary snipers before his time. Finally, Irving offered his thoughts on America's involvement in the Ukraine-Russia war, the Israel-Hamas war, and much more.
