The Nobel Peace Prize will be announced by the Nobel Committee this a.m. at 5:00 ET.
I hope that this year's recipient is Chef Andrés or someone else possessing the same qualities as him, philanthropic, humble, honorable and humane.
I hope they award it to someone who actually exemplifies peace.

Wait! Are you saying multiple Christian leaders have been shot by ICE while praying and one of Trump’s religious advisors was arrested for pedophilia, within the last few days? Color me shocked. Whatever could be in those Epstein files beyond what the survivors have told us so far?

Compilation photos of Trump and his daughter in poses more appropriate for a girlfriend than a child.

It’s hard to overstate how grotesque is the prosecution of Letitia James. I hope John Roberts—who unleashed this malignant, vengeful career criminal on our beloved country—is enjoying Trump’s utter abuse of power and trashing of justice and the rule of law.

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast.

But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.

Elderly dementia addled man praises himself because his Drs see his mental decline & administer a cognitive function exam. For the uninitiated. The first rule of handling a dementia patient is not to argue with them. It sets them off into angry fit. They are also caught in a loop of topics or time.

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."
