WASHINGTON — At least one man has been arrested in connection with more than a dozen suspicious packages sent to government addresses on the Eastern Seaboard, most of them in the nation's capital, the FBI said Tuesday.

Tranh Cong Phan, 43, was arrested at his home in the Seattle area on Monday. He is scheduled to make his initial court appearance on Tuesday afternoon.

He is believed to have sent a total of 12 packages to military and government addresses in the Washington, D.C., metro area, officials said.

No sex, drugs, rock and roll, or alcohol leads to guys like this.

Sex and drugs and rock and roll is the obvious go to solution, but the effin communists are too busy spreading their UPTIGHT nonsense.

Hang this scumbag from a tree branch.

Really?

Ever hear of "The Viet Nam War?"

Really? *SNORT* All of my Drill Sergeants were VN Vets. I learned from the BEST!

I’m just saying that we don’t have too many Vietnamese bomber-terrorists these days.

Sounds Vietnamese to me. Probably an old VC.

Looks half Vietnamese, half American. Maybe pissed off at American servicemen?

And, the FBI will be wondering what his motive was. Surely, they’ll tell us it isn’t terrorism! The guy just wanted to see some fireworks!

Yep, just knowing the FBI is on case makes me feel all warm & fuzzy! /HEAVY S

BTW, will the Trump Administration get credit for stopping this crap? Or will it be the normal liberal questioning of process and potentially violating someone’s “rights”.

Let me guess, the FBI was aware of him, interviewed him for prior threats and determined he wasn’t a threat...AND his dad was an FBI informant who said his son was just acting stupid?

I go to the RP on business 2-3 times a year and that is NOT Flip raghead name, it’s Vietnamese. Filipino moooslums are the minority and these assholes are ALWAYS the ones starting wars there.

Looks Vietnamese to me.

The name is a Vietnamese name and we hope he was not with the North Vietnamese.

We have not had too much trouble with the South Vietnamese folks since they work very hard and most Vietnamese are so grateful for the U.S. in giving them a chance.

Knew his brother King Kong and visited his homeland, Hong Kong. My translator/guide in HK was Wendy Wong (I swear, but she was a really nice lady).

Had dinner with his cousins, One Hung Low and One Long Dong. Not twins!

I’m going to Di Di Mao before someone comes after me. Chao!
