Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is...not worth my time. When a good friend of mine died tragically, I had to make jokes and laugh because it was everything I could do to stay sane.
I hate her and hope she dies or gets killed, but this isn't a "gotcha" to me.
You're correct, she's not with anyone's time.
And I would be right there with you about the gotcha if the obvious grifting wasn't involved.
Yes, I have grieved. And yes, I used humour to counter it.
I have seen many people grieve, and many of those have used humour to get over things. But that humour was generally morbid humour, or something like that.
Never have I met a -decent- person who used their partners death (let alone a public murder) to gleefully grift and make money, and further themselves.
It's not as if she was poor beforehand and this money is new to her. And it's not as if they didn't have life insurances etc etc.
This wasn't a devoted wife using humour to get over her husband's murder. This was a ghoul laughing about money being made, talking about her future leadership of NaziPointUSA etc etc. She hardly mentions her husband The Human Fountain. This is a woman who saw an opportunity and went for it.
