I am often critical of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, a clownish bozo who Trump hired, but when he does something good, I feel the need to give him credit, as I will now. I appreciate the way that Pete Hegseth inspired Colin Jost to play him in comedic sketches on #SaturdayNightLive.

‘Twas the saying of an ancient Sage, “That Humour was the only Test of Gravity, and Gravity of Humour. For a Subject which would not bear Raillery is suspicious; and a Jest which would not bear a serious Examination is certainly false Wit.”
Anthony Cooper, 3rd Earl of Shaftesbury (1671-1713) English politician and philosopher
Characteristics, Treatise 2 “Freedom of Wit and Humour,” Part 1, sec. 5 (1709)More about this quote: wist.info/shaftesbury-anthony-…

@markhburton @2legged PAY LESS THOSE YOU UPHOLD = Short #Answer
You & others pay their expensive #rent / #mortgage to them / their #system expecting different manipulation / ending?
NO WAY OUT BUT NOT PLAY THE CASINO / PAY LE$$.
The #news, #satire, #mockery, #sarcasm is perhaps cathartic...
but A LOT is a waste of time, with energy that could be invested better into ourselves #talking about #trust.
100's here and we reply shallow, #hate, mock & don't increment / re-#create #trust much.

A quotation from Thomas Carlyle
If Jesus Christ were to come today, people would not even crucify Him. They would ask Him to dinner, and hear what He had to say, and make fun of it.
Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Scottish essayist and historian

#MissKittyPolitics I rarely am idly curious. When I'm curious, there's no dirt left. It's all bedrock politics in this room. #Politics and #images as simple as #non-violent #mockery are now excluded. Standard #political #research and #imagery is #censored. Back to you: Are human rights necessary?

#Trump's mockery of #Starmer and #Macron is an extraordinary sight. I have never ever seen any other head of state or govt mocking allies. It's very rare to see #mockery even of sworn enemies.
Trump has always been a bully. But even a year ago, there was some restraint in his public speech, some degree of diplomatic nicety.
Was yesterday's outburst anything other than part of Trump's cognitive decline? Or is it some sort of reasoned and calculated strategic shift in US diplomacy?

For your race, in its poverty, has unquestionably one really effective weapon — laughter. Power, money, persuasion, supplication, persecution — these can lift at a colossal humbug — push it a little — weaken it a little, century by century; but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand. You are always fussing and fighting with your other weapons. Do you ever use that one? No; you leave it lying rusting. As a race, do you ever use it at all? No; you lack sense and the courage.
Mark Twain (1835-1910) American writer [pseud. of Samuel Clemens]

A quotation from James Thurber
By definition, humor is gentle. The savage, the cruel, the harsh would fall under the heading of wit and/or satire, as the lawyers say. Now, my definitions are these: The wit makes fun of other persons; the satirist makes fun of the world; the humorist makes fun of himself, but in so doing, he identifies himself with people — that is, people everywhere, not for the purpose of taking them apart, but simply revealing their true nature.
James Thurber (1894-1961) American humorist, cartoonist, writer
Interview (1959-03-24) by Edward R. Murrow, Small World, CBS-TVMore about this quote: wist.info/thurber-james/82802/

“There was a Medal of Honor ceremony at the White House today. …
the ceremony today at the White House was not solemn. Before the ceremony, Secretary of [Defense] Pete Hegseth and several generals and a clutch of other white men were standing off to the side talking. One of the men clapped the other on the back, as if he had just made a difficult putt on the golf course. Another man said something funny, and several of them laughed.“ -
We learn more quickly and bring back to mind more readily
The things we laugh at than those we respect and revere.

A quotation from George Orwell
Why is the goose-step not used in England? There are, heaven knows, plenty of army officers who would be only too glad to introduce some such thing. It is not used because the people in the street would laugh. Beyond a certain point, military display is only possible in countries where the common people dare not laugh at the army.
