Suspect named in baseball bat attack at Democratic congressman’s office

Xuan Kha Tran Pham, 49, was arrested after the attack at Gerry Connolly’s office in Fairfax. Held without bond, Pham faced charges of malicious wounding and aggravated malicious wounding.

Police said the man is suspected in a separate attack a short time earlier Monday. A man later identified as Pham approached a woman parked in her car about five miles from Connolly’s office and asked the woman if she was white, then hit her windshield with a bat and ran away, according to police. The woman wasn’t injured.

Pham’s father, Hy Pham, told the Washington Post his son was schizophrenic and had dealt with mental illness since his late teens. Hy Pham told the newspaper he had been unsuccessfully trying to arrange mental health care for his son.

In May 2022, a person whose name and community of residence matches Xuan-Kha Pham’s sued the Central Intelligence Agency in federal court. In a hand-written complaint, the plaintiff alleged the CIA had been “wrongfully imprisoning me in a lower perspective” and “brutally torturing me with a degenerating disability consistently since 1988 till the present from the fourth dimension”.

…the plaintiff alleged the CIA had been “wrongfully imprisoning me in a lower perspective” and “brutally torturing me with a degenerating disability consistently since 1988 till the present from the fourth dimension”.

More coherent than anything that’s ever come out of Biden’s mouth. This sounds kind of like the next phase of “systemic racism” claims. “We can’t point to any proof of actual racism, but that’s because it’s gone underground and is now hidden within the system itself. In fact, it’s so hidden the white supremacists have now stashed it in the fourth dimension.”

Yep, it’s obviously a white supremacist in a Trump hat. Film at eleven.

No pictures of the suspect or the damage done.
He sounds deeply disturbed. He is lucky nobody was carrying as he approached with baseball bat held high.

Well, at least Connelly has more time fighting the Vietnamese than his buddy Dicky Blumenthal has. Diversity Is Our Strength beat out with a baseball bat.

That's some Kamala level word salad.

Maybe the sacred bleeding lefties shouldn’t have utilized moral relativism and closed the mental hospitals. After all Mr Pham has his truth and in his eyes the congressman is wrong therefore release him to the streets

His father "told the newspaper he had been unsuccessfully trying to arrange mental health care for his son."

We hear this again and again. Families can't convince their loved ones to get help. This is why state hospitals are necessary.

Schizophrenics are particularly hard to help. They will agree to take their meds and other requests from a family member, and do it for a while, just to stop complying and descend back into their madness.

Most of them are harmless, except to themselves, but their loony talk can be pretty scary.

All these loonies are running around free and we don't understand why they end up getting guns and shooting lots of people. Gun Free Zone signs don't work but the Second Amendment does!
