Putin looks like a worried man

with nervous laughter around him.

As-if whistling past the graveyard,

acting cheerful or confident

to hide fear or anxiety in difficult situation.

Putting on a brave, happy face despite being scared.

Congratulations to Maria Corina Machado, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize - her incredible optimism has already changed her country. I spoke to her, and wrote about her, at the beginning of this year:

Anton :
I suppose if Putin kept his promises

about peace

that he gave to President Trump

at Alaska,

the Peace Prize would have gone to President Trump.

Whoever stops Putin

and Russia's war against Ukraine

will get the Peace Prize

and eternal gratitude

and glory from Ukrainians.

I asked Attorney General Bondi about the Justice Department carrying out vengeance prosecutions of Trump’s political opponents.

Again and again, she refused to answer.

She's the Chief Legal Officer for the people of the United States, not the President’s personal lawyer.
