South Korean President Moon Jae-in signed a historic declaration on Friday pledging "no more war." Later when responding to a letter from former Nobel Peace Prize winner Kim Dae Jung's wife, which said Moon deserves a Nobel for the successful summit, Moon said, "President Trump can take the Nobel prize. All we need to take is peace." Moon was apparently referring to Trump taking credit for Korean nuclear talks and conservatives' erroneous claims that Trump should win the prize for the summit.

Scott Pruitt
Donald Trump’s EPA pick Scott Pruitt has come under fire recently
when it was revealed that he took a $40,000, taxpayer-funded first class trip to Morocco late
last year. The reason the trip reportedly cost so much is because it wasn’t only Pruitt
flying first class but his entire staff. The explanation for Pruitt’s trip was
to pitch the supposed benefit of liquefied natural gas imports on Morocco ’s
economy. At that time, Cheniere Energy owned the only liquefied natural gas
export in the US .
We now know that at that time, Pruitt was living in the Cheniere Energy lobbyist’s
house for $50 a night which is less than a third of what other nearby
two-bedroom homes list for. Other recent scandals involve Pruitt reassigning the guy who would not let him use a police siren to get out of DC traffic,
EPA officials being demoted after raising concerns about Pruitt's ethics and perks for Pruitt's staffers. Donald Trump's response to this is that Pruitt has done a 'fantastic job.'
