  2. Trump is gonna be so angry. Expect some wild news later like doxxing President Zelensky in Ukraine.

  4. I believe the USA will announce tariffs for Norway soon.

  5. I can think of at least one certain individual that’s going to feel very wronged by this decision.

    I’m glad the committee didn’t cave.

  6. For her fight for democracy despite the risks to her person.

    She is being chased around Venezuela by Maduro’s goons so I wonder if she’ll be able to receive it in person.

  7. Loooooool to a Venezuelan as well! Trump is going to be fucking livid!

    Totally deserved.

  8. Glad the person who actually deserved to win it won! And not the orange man declaring war on his own citizens

  9. To those who don’t know, this was decided a while ago, so there was no way trump would win. Maybe next year for all I know though.

  10. BREAKING NEWS: President Trump just announced additional 30% tariffs on Venezuela.

  11. More like Donald Trump loses the Nobel Peace Prize. Such a peaceful thing to hear.

  12. >She is receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.

    Well deserved

  13. Wonderful. Female. Latina. Venezuela. A wonderful combination to make the Warmonger in Chief tweet all weekend.. if the world is lucky he might finally get so angry that…

  14. Can we please not make this about someone else. This is a well deserved awardee and she should be celebrated on her own merits.

  16. Clever choice, completely valid and a nice backhand slap to Trump who’s fielded the idea more then once to invade her country.

  17. Great choice. Let’s try to make this about her and her work and not about whoever might be throwing tantrums about this choice.

  18. Very happy about the committee not caving in to the Child in Chief and choosing a person actually deserving the award.

  19. “Folks, they tell me I didn’t win the Peace Prize, can you believe it? They gave it to this person in Venezuela, name’s Corina. I heard people call her Cryin’ Corina, some say Corina No-Winna, very sad! I’ve had big fellows, big, strong dudes, tough, they came to me, tears in their eyes, saying, ‘Sir, you brought so much peace we’re exhausted from all the peace.’ We had peace fatigue! And the Nobel people, very political, the most political, trully awful people, they say, ‘No, we’re going with Corina.’ Nice lady, I’m sure, but does she have the best peace? We did the greatest peace, everyone knows it.

  20. The speech highlighted everything Rump is not.

    Congratulations to Maria.

  21. The gave Trump another year to stop more wars. /s

  22. If it would have went to orange man, I would have lost my complete faith on the prize.

  23. Oh God, Trump is going to be on the news all fucking day now.

  25. Thank goodness for Maria Corina Machado, Wells deserved for her tireless humanitarianism not because she bullied to get it.
    Trump will be furious! 

  26. As long as Trump doesn’t win the prize, I don’t care who gets it.

    Fuck Trump.

  28. From the announcement:

    Democracy is a precondition for lasting peace. However, we live in a world where democracy is in retreat, where more and more authoritarian regimes are challenging norms and resorting to violence. The Venezuelan regime’s rigid hold on power and its repression of the population are not unique in the world. We see the same trends globally: rule of law abused by those in control, free media silenced, critics imprisoned, and societies pushed towards authoritarian rule and militarisation. In 2024, more elections were held than ever before, but fewer and fewer are free and fair.

  30. I honestly have no idea who she is and what she’s done, but I find it hilarious that a person from Venezuela wins the nobel peace price over Trump.

  32. A well deserved award! And if you listened to the chairman of the committee’s speech, he talked a lot about democracy and basically said that that the committee sees a well-functioning democracy as a fundamental component of peace. In other words, dismantling democracy will prevent you from getting the award. Which, if you read between the lines, sends a clear signal to you know who.
