    When those details first came out I did a search for deny, defend and depose and one of the top results was a different book.
    John Milton's The Tenure of Kings & Magistrates doesn't appear to contain them, either.
    It is about eliminating those in powerful positions that abuse them, though.

    The phrase "Deny the claim, Defend the lawsuit, Depose the patient" has certainly appeared here and there - though it's not clear if this was in response to what was written on the shell casings or if it has its origins on internal UnitedHealthcare emails

    Meanwhile, the NYPD are sending thoughts and prayers, because it turns out that acting like Rambo when somebody jumps a subway turnstile doesn't parse hunting for actual criminals

    In the latest from Fraggle Rock, the true cost of asylum and illegal immigration to the British tax payer is now apparently £5.4 billion a year, which is utter madness and wrong on every level. In other absurd news, Sadiq Khan is set to be given a knighthood, which is an out an out disgrace.

    Case in point, Thangam Debbonaire being backhanded a peerage for services to sour grapes

    Also demonstrating that he is unaware that Hat Trick Productions is not the BBC

    In other words, proving HIGNFY to be 100% accurate

    If you can show that the CAPEX/OPEX costs of running
    West Africa squadron 2 (boarding boogaloo) is at
    worst no more than that, you have won big time.

    I hear that he has a wife and children who would be horrified to hear the intolerant left joking about the grave misfortune which befell him...

    So here's a question that needs answering: a couple of months ago somebody in the UK sent $350 to his nephew who was fighting for Hayat Tahrir al-Sham and was charged with a terror offence

    So now that HTS are in charge of Syria and western leaders appear to be fine with this, will those charges remain or will they be removed from his record?

    ...oh, and why the **** is Israel bombing Syria this evening?

    To prevent Assad's chemical weapons from falling into the hands of groups who might use them with impunity.

    It's an eminently sensible move.

    There is nothing eminently sensible about "Look what you made me do" in any context
