Trump will keep Machado's Nobel Peace Prize: 'She offered it to me'
"Maria presented me with her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, soon after the Jan. 15 meeting. “Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect. Thank you Maria!.”

Machado, 58, has sought to have a role in the new Venezuelan government and political watchers believe the gesture is intended to soften Trump's posture towards her after he threw his support behind Delcy Rodríguez, the country’s vice president under Maduro. Rodriguez was sworn in as Venezuela's new interim president last week and has said she wants to collaborate with the U.S. administration.
Can you say insecure?

If my doctor gives me their diploma does that make me a doctor?

This could explain Trump’s brazenly behavior and the R’s unwilling to make a stand as though this isn’t an election year.

“Shapiro, a longtime DOJ veteran, said it’s not yet clear whether either of the two DOGE team members — who are not identified in her filing – actually shared data with the advocacy group, which is also unidentified. But she said emails “suggest that DOGE Team members could have been asked to assist the advocacy group by accessing SSA data to match to the voter rolls.”

Nice cherry picking there.

An advocacy group has zero fucking authority to review SSA data. Unless you’re ok Indivisible or the DCCC accessing your personal information and matching it to state voter rolls.

I warned this board repeatedly for years about the issues with Citizens United and the two 1970’s SCOTUS rulings on corporate personhood and money is speech. :ohno:

As an appointed public official, I get correspondence ALL THE TIME from all directions asking for favors, requesting to turn over privileged information and data almost on a daily basis.

This is a red herring.

A red herring that caused SSA to turn over evidence for a Hatch violation. Let’s see if money was exchanged.

When a story first breaks from actual real journalists there’s either further information to be reported as it evolves or it ends up fizzling out. Pretty rare for the initial story to have everything there is to know on the first try.

Places where real journalists are found include Politico, Drop Site News, the economist, the WSJ. Places where they are not include libsoftiktok or the administration.

One should be skeptical of it all regardless of political leanings.

Good god you’re ignorant. All sorts of real journalists hit the streets from the U.S. to war zones like Ukraine.

:clap: Good- everyone involved in those crooked lawfare investigations should be fired. ALL OF THEM.
FBI Director Kash Patel has carried out another round of firings inside the bureau, removing multiple senior officials connected to past federal investigations involving Donald Trump, according to an FBI source.

The dismissals include the special agent in charge of the Atlanta field office and the acting assistant director overseeing the New York field office, both of whom were tied to the two major federal criminal probes into Trump. A former special agent in charge from New Orleans, who had since moved into a different role within the bureau, was also removed.

In Miami, up to six FBI agents were reportedly let go due to their involvement in the bureau’s search of Mar-a-Lago, a move that has remained a flashpoint in Trump’s long-running conflict with federal law enforcement.
