The Washington Post - Trump badly wants a Nobel Peace Prize. Most on the committee oppose him.
25 Aug 2025
At least three of the five members of the Norwegian prize committee have criticized Trump publicly, making his path to winning their votes far from clear.
President Donald Trump has long quested after a Nobel Peace Prize, a distinction that would put him in a vaunted and exclusive club. But unlike a U.S. presidential campaign, winning a Nobel Peace Prize depends on an electorate of five - and Trump may not have a majority. …
Trump appears to be almost certain not to receive this year’s award, which will be announced in October, since the cutoff for nominations was in January.
Trump has taken credit for ending an ever-increasing roster of conflicts: Last week’s tally started at six and by Friday was ten, “if you think about pre-wars” 🙃

The NY Times - Trump says he is removing Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board.
breaking
President Trump on Monday said he was taking the extraordinary step of removing Lisa Cook from the board of governors of the Federal Reserve, in a legally dubious maneuver that could undermine the independence of the nation’s central bank.
Mr. Trump justified the firing, which he said was effective immediately, by pointing to allegations that Ms. Cook may have falsified records in order to obtain favorable terms on a mortgage. ...
But Ms. Cook, who was confirmed by the Senate to the position on the Fed’s board, has not been charged with any wrongdoing or convicted of a crime.
And she could seek to fight her dismissal, touching off what could be a landmark battle on the president’s power over the Fed.
EDIT
Lisa Cook says she’ll fight Trump’s move to fire her:
“President Trump purported to fire me ‘for cause’ when no cause exists under the law, and he has no authority to do so,” she said in a statement. “I will not resign.”

Perhaps those that stole the Gold Toilet, have a case.
If its 'I touch it I keep it for President' why not for them.
If everyone behaved like Trump, what a world it would be.

“It goes very well on the wall right over there. We’ll put it right below the angels,” Trump added, referencing some of the blinged-up decor he’s used to transform the Oval Office following his return to power.

Trump has form with keeping trophies, having been given the 24-karat gold-plated prize that was supposed to be presented to English team Chelsea following its Club World Cup win in the United States earlier this summer.
