Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., told Newsmax on Tuesday that the United States needs a "better approach to mental health" in the aftermath of the Lewiston, Maine, mass shooting that left 18 people dead last week.
Johnson was seemingly referring to reports that Maine shooting suspect, Robert Card, 40, had experienced a breakdown in mental health prior to the rampage. A trained firearms instructor at the U.S. Army Reserve base in Saco, Maine, Card had reportedly threatened to shoot up the National Guard base and was "reported to have been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks during summer 2023 and subsequently released."
