Rye Barcott, Marine veteran, With Honor co-founder, and author of Courage Can Save Us, joins Memos to the President to discuss the difference between bravery and courage, how a veterans-led group works across party lines in Congress, and why he believes service is important to American civic life. Rye also shares his perspective on a recent bipartisan congressional delegation to Ukraine and the debate over sanctions legislation in the House, discusses how social media disinformation can affect political courage, and reflects on how his father's Vietnam service shaped his own path into the Marine Corps and deployments to Bosnia and Iraq.
