"Trump's letter to Norway should be the final straw," writes Anne Applebaum for @TheAtlantic. She breaks down the bizarre document, and what it means: "Donald Trump now genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him."

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado said she has “presented” her Nobel Peace Prize medal to U.S. President Donald Trump, in a bid to win him over after he sidelined her since overthrowing Nicolas Maduro. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/16/world/politics/venezuela-machado-trump-nobel-peace/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #venezuela #us #donaldtrump #nobelprize

Instead of calling for a boycott of the FIFA soccer World Cup, we should just collectively declare the Nobel committee awarded the cup to a group of marine biologists in Greenland 🇬🇱 so the whole things is pointless, we know the winners.

The Nobel Institute has said that its famous Peace Prize cannot be transferred, shared, or revoked — a response to talk of sharing it with Donald Trump. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/01/11/world/politics/nobel-prize-transfer-machado-trump/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #nobelprize #donaldtrump #venezuela #awards #maracorinamachado
Ridiculous
#Trump said he would accept the #NobelPeacePrize if this year’s prize winner, #MaríaCorinaMachado, offered it to him when she meets with him next week, but #Nobel officials quickly announced Fri that the prize may not be shared or transferred.
“Once a #NobelPrize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared or transferred to others,” the Norwegian Nobel Cmte & the Norwegian Nobel Institute said. “The decision is final & stands for all time.”
