    FIFA Gives Trump a Dumb Medal So He’ll Stop Talking About Nobel Prize
    Would a peace prize by any other name smell as sweet?

    FIFA Gives Trump a Dumb Medal So He’ll Stop Talking About Nobel Prize | The New Republic

    excerpt:

    The U.S. president on Friday became the inaugural recipient of FIFA’s newly minted peace prize.

    The prize was the invention of Gianni Infantino, the boss of the international soccer league, who shocked his own top officials by cooking up the concept after Donald Trump begged, pleaded, and failed to win the Nobel Peace Prize in October.

    “This is truly one of the great honors of my life, and beyond awards, Gianni and I were discussing this, we’ve saved millions and millions of lives,” Trump said after the medal—a sculpture of hands holding a soccer ball—had been draped around his neck. “So many different wars that we were able to end.”

    That prediction from months ago was close.

    It happened this week before Trump could finish his ballroom (which is now at least $350 million, up from $200 million).

    He didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize.

    He got something much better: the just-manufactured 'peace' prize by the sports organization FIFA who awarded it to him at Kennedy Center with the Village People live on stage performing the song 'YMCA' while Trump did his hand dance.

    Peace medal and YMCA: Trump steals the show at World Cup draw
    Washington (United States) (AFP) – He got a gold medal. He made a game show-style appearance with foreign leaders. And he danced to YMCA.

    Peace medal and YMCA: Trump steals the show at World Cup draw

    excerpt:

    "Trump is hardly a stranger to bombast, but even he looked a little lost for words at one point as, after a slick video pronounced him the inaugural winner of FIFA's new Peace Prize, Infantino waxed lyrical about his achievements.

    "Mr President, this is your prize. This is your peace prize," he said, before adding with a chuckle: "There is also a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go."

    Trump proceeded to put the gong around his neck. "I'm going to wear it right now," he said."

    CNN Hot Mic Catches Someone Busting Out Laughing as Trump Gets Brand Newly-Made Prize

    excerpt:

    CNN microphones caught someone busting out laughing as anchor Dana Bash cut into a ceremony in which President Donald Trump was awarded a “Peace Prize” that was created just for him.

    Trump was on hand at The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts on Friday for the FIFA draw, during which FIFA President Gianni Infantino presented him with a brand-new honor: the “inaugural 2025 FIFA Peace Prize.”

    The FIFA event at Kennedy was about as corny, superficial, off-topic, and contrived as can be imagined.

    It looked like a Trump reality-TV gameshow.

    National Parks Now Free on Trump’s Birthday, but Not on Black Holidays | The New Republic

    excerpt:

    "The Trump administration removed free national park access on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth, while adding it for President Trump’s birthday.

    Now two federal holidays that celebrate Black American history will be ticketed—from around $3 to $30—while Trump’s birthday on June 14 is free entry.

    This change, first reported by SFGATE, is emblematic of the small-scale, antagonistic ways in which Trump wages his MAGA culture war on any federal mention of Black history in America, or any minority group, for that matter.:

    The FIFA 'peace' award event was at Kennedy Center that Trump trashed. Early in 2025 he fired the board and made himself the chairman.

    It also happened the same week that Trump put his name in silver letters on the outside of the building that houses the now defunct U.S. Institute of Peace that he dismantled in March 2025 to bolster his event inside praising himself for supposedly stopping a war in Africa for which he thinks he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.

    National Parks Now Free on Trump’s Birthday, but Not on Black Holidays | The New Republic

    excerpt:

    "He signed an executive order directing the Interior Department to erase any information that could be misconstrued as a “corrosive ideology,” which of course included anything relating to race relations, LGBTQ rights, and sexism. He also removed a picture of Harriet Tubman from the National Park Service page on the Underground Railroad, and changed the words “enslaved African Americans” to “enslaved workers” while removing a section that discussed Benjamin Franklin being a slave owner.

    This move is spiteful and self-centered, and a perfect opportunity for the president to center himself while punching down on MLK Day and Juneteenth in the name of MAGA."

    Hegseth is looking more like Matt Gaetz each day.
