Not even brokering a historic cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas that ended more than two years of war was enough for President Trump to secure the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize.
Early Friday, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado “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.”
“Machado is receiving the Nobel Peace Prize first and foremost for her efforts to advance democracy in Venezuela. But democracy is also in retreat internationally. Democracy – understood as the right to freely express one’s opinion, to cast one’s vote and to be represented in elective government – is the foundation of peace both within countries and between countries,” Norwegian Nobel Committee wrote in a statement, adding that Machado “meets all three criteria stated in Alfred Nobel’s will for the selection of a Peace Prize laureate.”

Jørgen Watne Frydnes, chairman of the Nobel Peace Committee, was asked by reporters about international pressure to award the prize to President Trump for his historic Israel-Hamas peace deal. He noted that “in the long history” of the Nobel Peace Prize, the committee has seen many different campaigns and “media tension,” adding that it receives letters and emails each year from people around the world expressing “what, for them, leads to peace.”
Frydnes concluded, “We base our decision only on the work and the will of Alfred Nobel.”
It is of course ironic that a major reason Machado isn’t president is because Biden sided with Maduro to get (cheap) Venezuela oil to try and bring down inflation during his term.
Asked why President Trump didn’t receive the Nobel Peace Prize, the committee chair said,

It’s important to note that Barack Hussein Obama received the 2009 prize for “his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.”
What exactly were those “extraordinary efforts”? By the time Obama won the prize, he accomplished very little; in fact, in the years ahead, the former left-wing president went on to drop 26,000 drone strike bombs across seven countries and stoked racial divisions in America to unprecedented levels.

What’s laughable is that globalists award themselves and their friends fancy prizes for doing “God’s work” – yet under their decades of rule, they’ve managed to spark endless wars, implement failed Keynesian economics that fueled a global debt crisis, push toxic Marxist-inspired social, criminal justice reforms and other policies, and enforce nation-killing open borders, among countless other disastrous ideas that have sown chaos worldwide. Yet when Trump comes to power to correct these failed globalist policies, the same liberal elites label him a “threat to democracy,” a “fascist,” a “Nazi,” and every other insult in the dictionary. Maybe it’s time for a new Nobel Prize system, just like Elon Musk is about to usher in a new Wikipedia-like platform, called Grokipedia.
As Just The News’ Amanda Head points out, Trump’s global peace powers extend beyond the Middle East and his first-term Abraham Accords. Thus far Trump has significantly de-escalated or fully ended six conflicts, not including Israel’s end-stage war with Iran-backed Hamas, averaging over one success a month since May.
In September 2025, Trump announced at the United Nations General Assembly that his administration’s diplomacy efforts — leveraging trade incentives — had decisively ended the long-simmering conflict between Serbia and Kosovo, preventing a catastrophic new outbreak and paving the way for peace and prosperity in the Balkans, where long-simmering tensions reached a fever pitch in the last five years.

In August 2025, Trump brokered a landmark diplomatic resolution to another long-simmering dispute between Egypt and Ethiopia over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, averting the threat of armed conflict through White House negotiations that secured water-sharing commitments and U.S. investment pledges, ensuring Nile River stability for millions downstream while boosting regional economic ties.
On August 8, Trump mediated the signing of a historic peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan at the White House, formally ending their decades-long Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and establishing normalized relations, though ratification by both nations remains pending.
In July 2025, Trump brokered a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand through direct calls to their leaders and threats to halt trade negotiations with each nation unless hostilities ended, halting five days of deadly border clashes that killed at least 35 people and displaced over 260,000, though the truce has since shown signs of fraying amid mutual accusations of agreement violations.
In May 2025, Trump claimed credit for brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan following four days of intense cross-border strikes over Kashmir, citing U.S. mediation and trade leverage to avert nuclear escalation, though India maintains the truce was achieved directly through bilateral military channels without third-party involvement.
But that’s still not enough to warrant a Peace Prize?

“Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize for getting elected as a black man”
..BINGO!
Isint it funny how you never see the layman on the street who did something peaceful that had a profound impact. Its always the people in golden circles with some sort of funding or backing by the rich. But I think it is ludicrous in the first place to have an award for being peaceful in the first place because peace should be the norm, not the exception. Man invents dynamite but instead of restricting a patent or never making it public in the first place, sets up a prize. It sounds absolutely ludicrous. Just as ludicrous as the pagan olympic games being brought back after the reign of christ on earth was finished. When you see it, you cant unsee it and history makes literally no sense without it. The head preisthood of the seven churches were the candle sticks and the lamps. Nero was the antichrist and was thrown into the pit in 75ad, he was wounded in 67ad but recovered. He had a 98ft statue too called the abominations of desolations and everyone was forced to give it offerings with the right hand and pray to it. Thoughts are at the front of the brain behind the forehead. The locusts were the governors, bishops and priests, false prophets and doctors all lying to the people. Isint it funny how satan does not have one original thought in his tiny little brain and has to do the same rubbish again. The pope is satans ambassador and the priests are the locusts all over again, as are the doctors and all those false preachers and prophets. At least this is the final rodeo for him. Shame most christians think they are heading for christs return in the clouds when it has long since passed. He is returning but out of the sea. The sea is the earth because he is already here and has been this whole time since his second coming. I did find it entertaining watching the viceral reaction from futurists and pretrists which is jesuit doctrine when faced with the words of Jesus and how they have to return to the old testament to refute the words of Jesus. Comical stuff.
Nobody has heard of this María Corina Machado except the people of Venezuela. Oddly, I always believed a winner of the Nobel peace prize was someone who did something on the world stage to bring about a peaceful ending to a conflict. Apparently not.
Trump was never eligible. You have to be a commie to win.
The work of Alfred Nobel! Hilarious.
If they are following the spirit of his work, then Hamas should get the prize, given the amount of shit they blow up.
TBF … they did give the Prize to Yassir Arafat … speaking of explosive winners.
