The Peace Prize is awarded to Maria Corrina Machado, and I think the Nobel Committee's remarks are directed to another audience.

Remember how ICE claimed they were rammed by 10 vehicles and had to shoot a woman 7 times? Turns out, her lawyer has footage of a federal SUV slamming into the woman's vehicle, getting out, yelling "do something, bitch!" and opening fire.

Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims agent said, 'Do something b----' before shooting

Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records
