Barça will be champion this Sunday if Madrid does not beat Espanyol

The Pulitzers award journalism that investigates Trump’s corruption and authoritarianism

President Donald Trump has never been a fan of the Pulitzer Prizes. Not long ago, he demanded that those awards be withdrawn from the media that investigated his Russian connections.
