A woman is dead following a “tragic chain of events” that began with a bomb threat against Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene at her Rome home, police said.

You left out the best part:
And rather than the journalists saying “three days old” and giving exact dates, it’s just “Monday”
It was opened at 9:30 on December 9th. It sat in the junk folder all weekend, the police found it, and a police officer driving a personal truck killed someone
“Look what you made me do!”
Seems like it would’ve been better to call Marjorie to tell her not to open her mailbox instead of rushing to the house at speed.
Given that it’s MTG, the first thing she would probably do after being told not to open her mailbox would be to open her mailbox. Not that I’m saying it’s a bad plan.
Yeah, just tell her it’s the woke liberals tell her what she can and can’t do.
They weren’t rushing to the house at speed. The accident occurred when an officer was driving his personal vehicle to the department so that he could get ready to respond to the situation.
The lady who died pulled out from a parking lot in front of him, and got t-boned on the driver side.
Well, that seems like a non-department-related accident. My employer isn’t responsible if I get in an accident on my way to work, not sure why that would be different here.
I’m not so sure. If I’m commuting to work that’s one thing, but if I’m responding to a page from my employer that’s different. This officer, though heading to work, was in the process of responding to the threat. They weren’t just commuting as part of their morning routine.

you’re not a pig though, no special rules for you
Yeah, the cop was definitely speeding though.

The article says it was someone rushing to the bomb squad HQ, not to MTG’s house. Also it says they contacted her first and she wasn’t home.
So they were rushing to an empty house to rescue who exactly?
They believed there was a bomb in the mailbox. If she lives in a neighborhood that’s still potentially near other people. My mailbox is on a sidewalk that folks use from time to time.
so the spam filters worked.
I also filter email from Matt Gaetz to Junk.
Why is Matt Gaetz emailing you? Are you a high school girl?
They might be. lemmy.world rules require someone be 18+, though I doubt he’d go after a senior.
Obviously the bomb was waiting for read receipt before arming, duh.
