Short Take Politics
Putin jeers Nobel committee
Claims it “lost credibility” by not giving the Nobel Peace Prize to Trump. The only man from whom a Presidential election was ever stolen, Vice President Al Gore, received one. So did Presidents Obama, Carter, Wilson and Roosevelt. https://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-deserved-the-nobel-prize-says-vladimir-putin/
Feds target left wing groups
The Trump administration is turning the FBI and Department of Justice against the finances and membership of Antifa. This keeps up the illusion that there is some umbrella organization out there that stands against fascism and this is somehow harmful to those who want to Make America Great Again. Make it make sense. I am anti fascist. Are you pro fascism? https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trumps-war-left-inside-plan-investigate-liberal-groups-2025-10-09/
Senators trapped in pointless circle
It is Groundhog Day, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result filing into the Senate chambers and voting no on partisan resolutions to reopen the federal government. How about actually negotiating? https://www.npr.org/2025/10/10/nx-s1-5566770/make-it-stop-for-lawmakers…
