“They didn't give it to Donald Trump, but they seem to have given it to the next best thing," says historian Greg Grandin.

Against Hugo Cesar Chavez and it’s not clear how involved she was. The coup was against the man basically responsible for the authoritarian takeover of Venezuela and its fall from democracy.

Why María Machado Deserved the Nobel Peace Prize The Venezuelan opposition leader shows why participation matters.

Nobel Peace Prizes have often been awarded to people who fight autocracy. Maria Corina Machado fits right into that tradition

Tweet proclaiming Maria Corina Machado of Venezuela winner of 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her work to promote democratic rights to Venezuela and a peaceful transition of power.

All of those indiscriminate blowing up of Venezuelan boats make more sense now. 🙄 Congratulations to Maria Corina Machado, Nobel Peace Prize winner.

“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 & peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”

The Nobel Committee underscores exactly why an aspiring dictator like Trump cannot win.

Did #Trump already send his congratulations to Maria Corina Machado for winning the Nobel Peace Prize 2025?

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Just bone chilling. And when the imprisonment of critics is combined with his offer to enrich and immunize his loyalists, this is how democracies die fast.

But it's still our choice. Don't let him silence you.
