“United States Coast Guard Rescue Swimmer and Petty Officer Scott Ruskin (Ruskan), directly saved an astonishing 165 victims in the devastating flooding in central Texas. This was the first rescue mission of his career and he was the only triage coordinator at the scene. Scott Ruskin is an American hero. His selfless courage embodies the spirit and mission of the @USCG,” Noem’s posted to her social media account on X.
WAY TO GO MR. RUSKAN ! ! !
Quite a big difference between the love for his fellow man this brave young man showed and the hate for his fellow man from the one who tried to destroy lives showed at the Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas today. I doubt the latter was a Trump supporter. Most likely a MSM follower with a severe case of TDS which was only made worse by the hatred he heard from certain members of Congress.
The attractive young lady in the photo seems quite proud of him Mr. Ruskan. She should be. The whole country is as well. Thank you, sir, for your service! You’ve set an excellent example for all of us to follow!
