At an inappropriate moment, PB Hegseth stands (with some difficulty) and proposes a nonsensical toast, after which he pulls an engraved silver flask from his vest pocket and swills the entire contents just as security drags him from the banquet room.

and the husband of one of my nieces said that he was fascinated by my British use of the cutlery. He travels a lot. I told him it was merely culture and that the Chinese have the last laugh at meetings since they don’t give a shit which knife, fork or spoon is for what. He said he was going to learn to use chopsticks just for some fun.
