Watch: White House drops 'Daddy's home' music video featuring Trump at Nato Summit; here's the context

Pete Hegseth, center, and Marco Rubio, right, laugh as a reporter asked if Nato secretary general Mark Rutte called US President Donald Trump "daddy" during a news conference at the 2025 Nato Summit in The Hague, Netherlands. (NYT News Service) The White House on Thursday joined the buzz around US President Donald Trump 's latest "Daddy" nickname as the White House shared a one-minute video showing Trump's arrival and interactions with Nato secretary general Mark Rutte and other leaders at the summit, set to the track Daddy's Home by Usher. The video appears to playfully embrace the nickname, which emerged from an exchange between Trump and Rutte. US President Donald Trump, already the most powerful man in the world, received a new nickname on Wednesday from Nato secretary general Mark Rutte -- "Daddy." The moment came as the two leaders were chatting ahead of the Nato summit. Trump brought up his usual comparison of Iran and Israel to fighting schoolchildren. "They've had a big fight, like two kids in a schoolyard," Trump said. "You know, they fight like hell. You can't stop them. Let them fight for about two, three minutes, then it's easier to stop." To that, Rutte responded: "And then Daddy has to sometimes use strong language." Rutte was referring to Trump's angry reaction earlier in the day at the White House, where the president was visibly upset about the possibility of the Iran-Israel ceasefire falling apart. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo "The two countries have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing, do you understand that?" Trump told reporters. Trump laughed at Rutte's "Daddy" remark and acknowledged the use of his unexpected expletive. "Everyone said 'Well, you have to use a certain word'," he said. When asked later about the nickname, Trump said he didn't mind it. "He did it very affectionately," Trump said. "Daddy, you're my daddy." The exchange also drew laughter from US secretary of state Marco Rubio, who was present when Trump responded to Rutte's comment. Trump, known for fiery remarks but not frequent public swearing, surprised many with the language he used. Rutte, meanwhile, made extra efforts to keep Trump engaged during what could have been a tense Nato summit. From shortening the schedule to hosting Trump at the king's royal palace, Rutte has earned another title of his own, the "Trump Whisperer."

Swamiji to sardarji: When PM Modi disguised himself to evade arrest during Emergency

NEW DELHI: Covert activities, innovative tactics and code words for secret meetings like 'Chandan ka Karyakram' - the unconventional methods used by a young RSS pracharak, and now PM, during Emergency had left many surprised, even authorities. 'The Emergency Diaries - Years that Forged a Leader', published by BlueKraft, chronicles Modi's role after speaking to several people associated with him at that time. Evading detection as a member of the banned RSS during Emergency, Modi travelled in disguises - in one instance as a "swamiji" to visit a jail to speak to incarcerated activists. He was there for nearly an hour, according to the book, released at an event to mark 'Samvidhan Hatya Diwas' by home minister Amit Shah. In the book, RSS volunteer Hasmukh Patel talked about Modi's keen mind for innovative outreaches, noting that he suggested placing anti-Emergency literature in barber shops where people from different walks of life gathered, and with religious leaders as followers came to listen to them. "He not only ensured regular publication of anti-Emergency literature, but also took on the perilous responsibility of distributing it throughout Gujarat. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo His 'sardarji' disguise was so convincing even his close acquaintances failed to recognise him," the book said. Long-time RSS volunteer Nagar Bhai Chavda said Sangh members often organised meetings and called them 'Chandan ka Karyakram'. Modi introduced them to these terms, he said, adding that the young pracharak carefully selected houses where they met. For example, during Emergency, Modi would only stay in houses with two or more exits.

In a first, Iran says N-facilities 'badly damaged' in US strikes

Iran said its nuclear installations were "badly damaged" by US airstrikes, the first such comments by Tehran as debate grows over how much the bombardment managed to dent the Islamic Republic's atomic programme. "Our nuclear installations have been badly damaged, that's for sure," foreign ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei told Al Jazeera TV in an interview on Wednesday. Baghaei did not give further details and said authorities were still assessing the situation on the ground. He added that the US attacks were a "detrimental blow" to international law and the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty to which Iran is a signatory. The comments are the first time an Iranian official has addressed the scope of damage caused by the June 22 strikes which involved US attacks on three nuclear facilities in Iran. Trump contests intel report The comments came hours after US President Trump disputed a US intelligence report that said the attacks had limited impact on Iran's nuclear programme below ground. An assessment from the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency said the bombing likely didn't cripple the core components stored underground including centrifuges, according to people familiar with its contents. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Commenting on the intelligence leak, Trump said the report was "very inconclusive" but that he still believed the sites were demolished. "The intelligence says we don't know," he told reporters at a Nato summit in the Hague. "It could have been very severe. That's what the intelligence says. So I guess that's correct, but I think we can take that we don't know. It was very severe. It was obliteration." 'War's over; talks next' Trump said the US would hold a meeting with Iran next week but cast doubt on the need for a diplomatic agreement, citing the damage that the US bombing had done to its key nuclear sites. He said the conflict was effectively "over" after the US mission - though he also warned: "Can it start again? I guess someday it can. It could maybe start soon."
