The Pentagon is said to have used a plane that looked like a civilian aircraft in a boat strike. The law prohibits combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries, then attacking and killing them. That is a war crime called “perfidy.”

Remember, when Vance was caught spewing racist lies that Haitian immigrants were eating people's pets, he admitted that "if I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do."
Proudly, openly a liar.

We would create the equivalent of the ACA navigators as care navigators. There would be no claims. Just invoices. Which would be paid each month by taxpayers.
What do you think about this approach ?

Stunning that this just HAPPENED on a show with (at that point) an audience of about 8 million people a week, in 1992. Nothing about Denise was played for laughs, except other people's reactions to her.
