President Trump and his national security team held a meeting with NATO Sec.-Gen. Mark Rutte during the 2025 NATO Summit in the Hague, Netherlands, and took questions from the media.
Interestingly, NATO Secretary Mark Rutte emphasizes the new commitment from Canada repeatedly. As one of the worst offenders to adhere to their NATO obligations, and against the backdrop of tariffs and targeted trade negotiations, obviously Canada is trying to position themselves against the Trump economic agenda.
Secondly, the emphasis is again on the damage assessment from the U.S. bombing of the Iran nuclear facilities. This is critical for President Trump to break free of the intelligence community control over U.S. foreign policy expanded in the next outline. WATCH:

“critical for President Trump to break free of the intelligence community control over U.S. foreign policy”
Go for it – the only way for MAGA to succeed.
Remember the false information PDJT was fed early in his first term, which resulted in an attack on Syria while PDJT was dining with Xi from China in Florida.
Don’t you know bummer is mad as hell. THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP 🙏🏻 🇺🇸💯👍🇺🇸
In looking past this administration, it is crucial that the CIA be broken from their new position as a “fourth branch” of the Federal government. President Trump has the power to do it by identifying the rogue operatives and cutting them off. Not by “firing” them but by publicly identifying them as being enemy players. Given his particular wish to avoid violence and bloodshed, he would probably be reluctant to do that. But it is one of his jobs as President.
Whatever it takes, the CIA must be brought back under the complete control of the Executive branch.
You misspelled obliterated.
It might be the first time the cia would ever be under executive control.
No accountability means absolute corruption.
This 5% is ALL “BULLSHIT” look at everything being said by NATO members raising their contributions to 5% by “2029”! It’s ALL smoke & mirrors to “wait out” until after the next USA Presidential election. Hopefully POTUS calls their bluff.
Yep … same “Commitment Promise” has been publicly made since 2017, while the date for meeting those “5% Commitments” was pushed out 1-year, each time a Commitment was made..
Tie those commitment percentages to Tariff Penalties … year over year … starting NOW.
Add percentage point(s) to the baseline tariff for each percentage point under 5%.

I believe Trump knows this 5%and NATO are totally corrupt and this will never happen. Most likely he has plans to leave NATO during his term.
And even if any of them reach the new 5% goal, only 3.5% would be for their own “key defense” needs, meaning military equipment for their own militaries and funds to support their servicemembers. The other 1.5% would be for “cybersecurity, infrastructure or resilience-building goals”, which sounds like they could include many kinds of non-military funding as toward their 5% defense goal.
And don’t forget their support for Ukraine. That will be included in that 1.5% as well. And there will be Ukraine game playing as well with the “core” 3.5%, such as, if they transfer military equipment from their military to Ukraine, they will apply the cost of replacing that equipment to the 3.5%. It is all a big game. So on paper it may look like they met their 5% goal, but in reality their own ability to defend themselves may be no better than it is now.
Also, a few months ago I read that some NATO countries were trying to say that their spending to support Ukrainian refugees inside their countries (for welfare, healthcare, housing, etc.) should be counted toward their current 2% goals. So don’t be surprised if it turns out those expenditures are counted somewhere in the new 5%. It is all a game and their defense spending in most cases is likely to be no better than it is now.
Side note: Remember that Rutte was directly responsible for the years long attack on Dutch farmers and farming, large scale implementation of “Climate Change” policies, including carbon taxes, was hand picked by the ‘invisible’ powers behind the WEF to be the regional comptroller/czar for food control in Europe (including food sources like bugs), is a long time WEF puppet, and was placed in his current role at NATO for a purpose to exert influence towards an objective of his masters.
You can never trust the Globalists. They are the enemy.
NATO needs a Secretary General from the United Stars put in place, while Trump is in office. There have been 3 from the Netherlands, 3 from the UK, 2 from Belgium, but none from the US. This Rutte guy from the Netherlands is the worst.
No Freak…we should not be there at all…Warsaw Pact been dissolved 1991…..
US membership is the only thing keeping NATO from being rebranded as the “EU army”
Where turkey and Canada lands will be interesting.
Some have pushed hard to get Turkey into the EU, and, as ridiculous as it may sound, when PDJT was rattling Justins cage, there were murmurings of joining the EU..
Does this new “5%” still mean that the Euro’s and Canada include their supposed fighting climate change expense be included as they have been doing for the past 5 years (at least and but probably 12 years)?
Most of these supposed NATO partners are nothing but cheats and cowards.
Information warfare for the purposes of treason.
None of this is what MAGA is about. I’m tired of watching and listening about NATO, EU, Iran, China, Green t-shirt and all the other clowns. Why don’t we concentrate our resources here at home? Its getting close to time to bug out.
I am not sure we need NATO to have more money LOL
I know the concept is good, however, evil is probably licking their chops
Canada fancies themselves immune from any repercussions about anything.
Was it a 5% GDP commitment by 2035? They’re not even at 2% now!
I know Canadians feel nervous because they’ve voted in their next tyrant, Carnival Man, but it is not fair to the American people, and I think downright criminal, to keep supporting their nonsense.
Hopefully President Trump doesn’t let them keep up with this BS.
Spain is full-on corrupt..must be good friends with Lula
Many many Canadians are feeling despair at what our country has become. Elections have consequences as we all know. And corruption in politics has big effects downstream.
I hope Canada comes back as I don’t recognize my country anymore. I suppose it is much like native Europeans feel these days. Taken over.
I have a question regarding Col. Douglas McGregor – he has been consistently critical of President Trump and has taken the position that the attack did no damage seemingly to the extent that is was a planned fake – any thoughts on this?
He’s a globalist pig, another traitor.
If the enriched uranium is still available, it could still be used in small “dirty bombs” to unleash radioactive contamination with small drones.
Will Iran emulate Ukraine?
Elimination of enriched Uranium production is not the end game
Nicholas Edward Bednarski, MD
Jun 25, 2025
“While Israel appears to have emasculated Iran’s military and weapons-grade Uranium production successfully, that country’s intentions to produce or use weapons-grade Uranium 235 remains, for the moment, intact. But even after our B-2 bombers dropped the dreaded MOP devices, apparently destroying the Fordow facility 90 meters underground, Iran’s current government remains a nuclear power…”
“…As mentioned, lack of production and enrichment abilities for their Uranium 235 and destruction of their delivery methods does not end their nuclear warfare capability. Israel finally pulled the trigger on eliminating Iran’s potential weapons production after
1) suffering a “Pearl Harbor” attack by an Iranian proxy, Hamas, on October 7, 2023,
2) successfully suppressing Hamas in Gaza and another Iranian agent, Hezbollah, in Lebanon,
3) recognizing that the American President was truly committed to their survival and ready and willing to take decisive action on the Iran question,
4) reading the latest IAEA report of May, 2025 on Iran’s prior actions and current status.
That report documented all the details of perhaps twenty years of Iranian duplicity in dealing with the international community and their clear intention, signaled by their actions, of developing nuclear weapons as soon as possible despite any and all restrictions. Most critically, that report revealed that the Iranians now had approximately 410 kilograms of Uranium 235 enriched to the 60% level, a 50% increase over their stores since February, 2025. The rate of increase is highly significant, and with the further step of enrichment to 90% U-235 provides them with up to ten nuclear weapons. Clearly, Iran was rushing over the threshold to growing mushrooms not just in Haifa, but all over the Middle East. But stopping their efforts at the current level does not remove danger. Unless safely and completely removed from any destroyed facilities, the Uranium remains a potent weapon of mass destruction under Iran’s control.
How would they weaponize these stores of partially enriched Uranium, and why would it represent any danger to others? 60% enriched U-235 is already a weapon, needing only a delivery system….”

NATO needs to shut down. It has been over 80 years since WWII and they are now useless. Europe needs to take care of itself.
