Trump’s age isn’t getting the same kind of scrutiny as Joe Biden’s did—but as the president nears his 80th birthday, his recent behavior is prompting questions about his health, including from some in his own party, @JonLemire reports: https://t.co/1FzlNEF2au

A new DNA study has revived a long‑running theory that Christopher Columbus may not have been Italian at all, but actually Pedro Álvarez de Soutomaior, a Galician nobleman also known as Pedro Madruga. Researchers compared genetic material from remains believed to be linked to Columbus with DNA from documented descendants of Madruga’s family line, finding striking similarities.

This theory argues that Madruga disappeared from historical records after a regional war in Galicia, the same moment Columbus suddenly emerged in Portugal with a new identity, nautical expertise, and connections that would later launch his Atlantic voyages.

Supporters of the theory point to additional clues: Columbus named over 100 places in the Americas after Galician towns, and 80 handwriting experts have concluded that Columbus’s writing style is virtually identical to Madruga’s.

If true, this would radically reshape the accepted biography of one of history’s most famous explorers, suggesting he may have concealed his origins for political survival. While the theory remains debated, the new DNA evidence has pushed it further into mainstream historical discussion.

One of the strangest supporting clues is Columbus’s 'obsessive use of Galician‑Portuguese language patterns', even in private notes. His letters contain idioms, spelling habits, and grammatical structures that do not match Italian dialects of the era but align closely with the writing of nobles from southern Galicia.

Even more intriguing: Columbus repeatedly used Galician nautical terms that were not common in Genoa or broader Italy, but were standard among sailors from the exact region where Pedro Madruga ruled.

Linguists argue this is nearly impossible to fake, especially for someone supposedly born and raised in Italy, and it quietly strengthens the case that Columbus was hiding a past tied to Galicia’s political conflicts.

The president of the Norwegian football association has called for the abolition of the FIFA Peace Prize, which was awarded to U.S. president Donald Trump, and says she supports an ethics complaint against Gianni Infantino, the president of world football’s governing body.

Lise Klaveness, who will represent her federation at the FIFA Congress on Thursday and is on the UEFA executive committee, said the organisation should maintain “an arm’s length distance” from world leaders.

Trump was given the Peace Prize by Infantino at the draw for this summer’s World Cup in Washington D.C. on December 6.

The prize was announced by FIFA in November — without prior approval from its board, the FIFA Council — in order “to reward individuals who have taken exceptional and extraordinary actions for peace and by doing so have united people across the world”.

Klaveness believes that FIFA, which is supposed to remain politically neutral, does not have the “mandate” nor resources to give out a Peace Prize.
