NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte delivered a direct reminder to the EU in Brussels. Brushing aside criticism after Donald Trump published private messages between them and telling EU lawmakers, he did not mind the disclosure. Speaking directly to the EU nations at the European Parliament, Secretary Rutte defended Trump’s NATO record, warned Europe cannot defend itself alone, and rejected claims linking Greenland talks to Ukraine.
Rutte reminded the European assembly that without the United States there is “no way” for Europe to defend itself. WATCH:

Once again!
BLESSED are we with you, Sundance!
Praying daily and often for you, Sundance, for Wisdom, Discernment, and Protection.
AMEN, AMEN, & AMEN
AMEN to that Junebug
Love and Blessings to Sundance!!
Finally someone from NATO speaks the truth.
The truth makes all the people around Rutte look like they’re at a funeral.
They are.
And not catered.
Their own. May a loving and forgiving God welcome them into heaven, sooner rather than later.
I think either Henry I or Henry II said essentially the same thing about arranging the meeting sooner rather than later.
their delusions are being murdered in real time
🤣🤣🤣
He’s been utterly unreliable as Prime Minister in the Netherlands (we have no snake oil but he’d be selling it;)
Think Lindsey Graham. Yet he’s pragmatic and realistic.
WHY GREENLAND? January 22, 2026–Diana Larkin:
“Some of you may be wondering WHY GREENLAND is so important to your President? Remember how I have encouraged you to see BEYOND surface level events and human understanding and to look with your SPIRITUAL SIGHT from My PERSPECTIVE. What if the evil empire had plans to launch an ATTACK from that island with the STRATEGY of blaming a foreign nation and IGNITING World War III? What if there is a ROGUE sub in those cold waters that belongs to the evil empire? What if they planned to launch a VICIOUS and DESTRUCTIVE attack that would kill many innocent lives?
Don’t UNDERESTIMATE the darkness in the heart’s of those partnered with the evil empire. They are fighting for their EXISTENCE, and they will use ANY MEANS of getting back in CONTROL. Also, don’t UNDERESTIMATE My POWER to REVEAL their dark, secret plans through military and spiritual intel and to give your President a PLAN of action to THWART and to EXPOSE their wicked plans. Remember not to look at just SURFACE information or the SHORTSIGHTED media’s talking points. I have offered to give you eyes that SEE CLEARLY behind the scenes so that your prayers become POWERFUL WEAPONS that help carry out My plans.”

Rest in the Vine: “How To Take Back Our Nation from the Screaming Hordes”
by Mike Thompson– The Prophetic Word, 1/25/2026
Glad this guy has some sense!
He has a family, kids, etc., he can’t afford to pretend when the one country he needs to ensure their future is no longer being led by cucks.
Indeed. He appears to be more popular in this role than he was for many in his own country as Prime Minister. There are plenty of Dutch farmers who’d like to see him in prison. Especially after they were praised by Donald Trump for “courageously opposing the climate tyranny of the Dutch government.”
Here’s more reality: abolish Nazi NATO.
“NATO” didn’t do any of that. WE (the USA) did. Maybe some help here and there from the Brits.
NATO bombed Yugoslavia during the Kosovo war. Beginning in 2003, NATO led the ISAF as part of the war in Afghanistan, and it was a NATO-led “coalition” that intervened in Libya in 2011. Yes, we are by far the largest component of NATO, but it was NATO the organization doing those things. NATO should be liquidated.
ISAF standing for, of course, “I Saw Americans Fight.”
As I recall the Europeans began the attacks against Libya. (Europe wanted to take the oil supplies.) But in less than a week the Europeans quickly ran out of munitions and fuel. The Libyans were still holding out. So the US had to rush to join in so the Europeans would not be totally humiliated. After that the US provided all the fuel, replenished munitions for the Europeans and the US ended up flying most of the combat strikes.
In the Balkans, the Europeans were providing troops to monitor the very shaky ceasefires after the former Yugoslavia broke up. There was a huge massacre in Srebrenica, Bosnia where Serbians killed thousands of Bosniak Muslims (aka “Ethnic Cleansing.”) The Dutch peacekeepers stood by and watched but did not intervene. That led to the escalation of US involvement, particularly against the Christian Orthodox Serbs.
^ This
That said, NATO is being used for evil purposes to propagandize European citizens, to ban their free speech / expression and to “manage” elections because nationalism is not approved. Only Marxist Globalism is allowed in the EU. Anything else constitutes a threat which must be firmly addressed.
Heard like 10 years ago Russia used the hashtage, #HATO. Thought at the time it was merely harmless propaganda, but was wrong, again.
Pretty sure it was shared intelligence but it does seem as if it was the US in Afghanistan. The others, NATO.
“…linking Greenland talks to Ukraine.”
Only the Einstein’s of EU and NATO would come up with this approach. SMH
Anyone with half a brain can see why Greenland is important to the USA.
Ukraine us in Europe]s backyard.
If Ukraine were swallowed up by a sinkhole it would have no effect on daily life in the United States.
NATO was invented after WWII to combat Soviet communist aggression. The Soviet Union has not existed for almost 40 years. The entity that was putting missiles in Cuba, installing communists in Nicaragua, invading Angola, fighting us in Vietnam and Korea is no longer in existence. Russia, as bad as it is, is not the USSR. Its Navy is nothing. Its single aircraft carrier was totaled in dry dock when a crane collapsed during service. It cannot project force around the world as the USSR did. Putin has now spent 3 years on an invasion of Ukraine that has captured territory the size of Pennsylvania. He has lost tens of thousands of tanks and they are pulling antiques from the museums to replace the ones lost in battle.
Russia is a threat to Europe, and Europe should deal with it.
NATO should be over, or relegated to a cultural exchange society.
Ukraine is also the E.U. outhouse. Ukraine was sacrificed as a tool to weaken Russia sufficiently so as that the U.S. with NATO assistance could finally break Russia’s spine and then pilfer the vast natural resources.
Ukraine is by its ethnic makeup and language largely Russian. The pre-CIA (OSS) began infiltrating and developing terrorist networks within Ukraine with the full intentions of weoponizing Ukraine against the then Soviet Union. Eventually the entire country became under the control of these wicked forces developed over decades via an American sponsored regime change operation in 2014.
That set in motion the march to war.
A war that the plotters and schemers have now lost while the entire time risking all of human civilization in the gamble…..
NO.
Defend itself from what? Its own shadow? Russia is not interested in attacking NATO if their just left alone & not threatened.
The EU is threatening to nuke up and do a “pre-emptive” strike on Russia. They have worked themselves into a lather over their own lies of Russia wanting to expand into Europe. Who TF wants an EU nation? They are all broke-ass Muslim shit holes!
The EU is the greatest threat to the entirety of humanity today.
Europe is a flock of sheep who place their faith in safety in numbers. Those numbers, however, are comprised of fellow wooly, privileged, socialists who have been protected by their USA shepherd for 81 years. It is embarrassing to hear them talk tough, and deep down you see some of them struggle with their own shame.
Then amongst them there are the true politicians who possess no capacity for shame. They continue to pretend, as it allows them to grift-off and control their populations.
Pathetic.
President Trump is his Daddy. And finally we got a NATO leader who has some common sense.
Panda Mask?
As PM of Netherlands, Rutte was one of the worst during covid. Went after farmland and caused the farmers to protest. Driving their equipment to the capitol etc …
Someone over there speaks the truth.
But, throughout all(!) of this, I continue to hear the following verb:
“P – a -y …”
And this is what reminds me of President (and Supreme Commander) Eisenhower once said about a term that he himself first coined:
“Military … Industrial … Complex.”
You see, we don’t need to do messy things like “killing millions of twenty-somethings!” We only need to budget!
“warned Europe cannot defend itself alone”
Just what country does Europe need to defend itself ageist ?
Russia ? China? America?
Or maybe it’s not another country, but another planet?
That must be it.
They’ll likely try to whip that one out soon enough.
They have chosen to NOT defend themselves from their truest and surest enemy: Radical Islam.
King John III Sobieski, King Richard I, and Charles Martel all would be spinning in their graves.
Along with Pope Urban II.
RadicalIslam.Redundant, is it not? 😉
Other past giants of European History, who stood against Islam and would be appalled at the present situation, would be Austria’s Don Juan, Pope Pius V, and Italian (Venetian) Admiral Agostino Barbarigo, who lost his life in 1517 at the Battle of Lepanto, q.v.
They have chosen to NOT defend themselves from their truest and surest enemy:
RadicalIslam.FIFY
It’s the European elite’s choice to flood their countries with Muslim immigrants. It’s the European elites choice to antagonize Russia, to give away their industry to China, to cripple their industry, their farmers and their energy supplies. European elites encourage ordinary Europeans to destroy their own culture, to adopt LGBTQ perversion, to not have children of their own, to languish on the welfare system.
The greatest threat to Europe is Europe’s elites.
Let’s not leave Soros out. He helped fund the EU invasion too. Russia wants his head, Hungary threw him out and of course we took him in, gave him citizenship and he has paid for our destruction too!
“Europe need to defend itself against …” the WEF / EU tyrants and pervasive socialism / communism.
But, only the nation-states within the boundaries of Europe can reject the EU model.
If such nations unilaterally exit the EU, restore their sovereign currency (adopt the USD as legal tender for a limited time period) and form treaties with bordering nations the EU bureaucracy will crumble concurrent with the value of the Euro. …
Just a few ideas in response to the question; to be developed.
Belgium is Europe’s biggest threat.
Brussels?
Love the look on that old hag sitting next to Rutte. She looks like your typical EU elite who just had her cucumber sandwich stolen right out from under her.
Rutte dropping the truth bombs on the ungrateful swine known as the EEEEYEWWWW!! Rutte knows where the money flows!
LOL!!
Not good body language from McAllister much of the video….crossed arms….(maybe I’m reading into it 🤔 )
Though saw a slight nod when Rutte gave Germany a pat on the head for leading the 5% solution……
“Like rats in a maze…
Emasculated men, barren women sitting it out knowing if they obey, like the rats they get the cheese up and until someone comes along sets the maze on fire.
NATO is just another way for governments to pilfer money, end it.
If they would only transform NATO into a mass Muslim deportation agency, then I can see it as worthy. But we all know that will never happen.
Wow.
It’s nice to have a NATO leader with common sense and willing to speak the truth. However NATO is no longer needed and should be abolished.
The people who once, actually knew what “War” actually was . . . are now long dead. The only ones remaining are everything that “Ike” tried to warn us about. People for whom “War” is an industrial product.
A budget line-item. Just a few “billion!” What’s it to ya?
We don’t actually need to talk about messy things like “War!” All we need to do is to spend money!
(Kindly ignore the “actual experience” in Ukraine, where “actual Russians” are beating the sh&t out of them. Just sayin’ …)
I’ve actually visited “Ike’s” grave in Abeline. So far, it continues to appear to be quiet . . . I see no signs of rapid rotation . . .
NATO is fighting for it’s life as Europe sinks deeper into depravity of their own making.
The only way the EU could defend itself would be by becoming China’s Cuba. But isn’t China the model many globalists chose for technocratic rule?
Imagine the EU as part of China’s global hegemony: it would be geo-militarily effective against both Russia and the US, and all the more as they bring Canada into their sphere of economic control.
In WW1 they fought to control yards of land. In WW2 they fought over entire countries. Now, the battle is over controlling continents. Which may decide who gets economic access to the moon and astroids.
I think, as an American, my biggest shock over the past year with all this NATO, UN, etc and Tariff economic reveal was just how much the world has taken from us…that we were willing to give to our own detriment and suffering for decades.
How the EU wouldn’t sign on to defending Ukraine unless the US committed first…
How Canada’s economy is in trouble if they have to operare under fair trade deals with us….
How outrageously angry other countries were when we started rightly considering our people, and our interests for once, even though we were still fair to them.
It has been real eye opening experience for me. I knew were used. I had no idea how much.
Well, have you ever heard someone say, “I like it when someone feels indebted to me.”
We were getting something else out of all our “giving”–indebtedness, which often allowed us to maintain US military bases in those countries. Or maybe the presence of our military in those countries enforced their allegience.
I think that’s how the globalists and intel agencies became united and so powerful–they ceased to view the world as a collection of nations or borders, but one, big spreadsheet. Governments became convenient control points rather than expressions of a population’s will.
Until the arrival of the most inconvenient Trump!
Spot. On.
Trump has a magical power to make people stop pretending; he cast the spell on Rutte, he’s no longer pretending.
What happened to the former Netherlands PM?
Did the scales fall from his eyes?
Recalling him trying to kill agriculture & his own farmers.
Exactly. I don’t believe he’s come over from the dark side.
I think this is all a game of trying to appease President Trump and just waiting him out. They believe that everything will go back to “normal” in 2029.
He has a 50/50 chance of being right.
Love this guy!
I like the CC quote from him at the end, “eh ze eh oh good luck” when talking about going it alone.
Somewhere near the end of these comments, he equates the board of peace with Middle East policy (as he specifically says he doesn’t want to comment on it)….probably didn’t want to step in another patch of nettles re the UN….but all good to hear him say what is so, as he did. That is not habitual for anyone from the EU.
It’s not arrogance from our President, It’s tough love.
dis-Trust until verified:
I’ve seen videos (which I can’t find via google) where they’ve pointed out that Canada is moving off Defense items onto the Defense line of the budget to meet their 5% pledge. This would include things like Border Services Officers (BSOs) of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) which have never been included in Canada’s Defense Budget. It falls under the Minister of Public Safety (part of the Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness portfolio).
There will be little actual increase in their Defense Budget. Bet on it.
Canada has been the worst at taking advantage of the US. The pea under which shell game.
The same is true of the entire euwwww
The Ukraine war is unfortunate but the EU’s biggest problem is of their own creation: the enemy within.
I will take back my comment referring to him as “HR Karen” last month when his comments were far less helpful.
He’s still the same guy. I think what we’re seeing now is an act.
We’ll see.
But but but…E Yew hates Trump!
Durn….E Ewe
Western Europe is like the deadbeat uncle who lives in your basement, smokes a lot of weed, and likes to reminesce about the time when they were some kind of famous musician…
Time to kick the ungrateful uncle out.
It’ll be better for Europe in the long run. Heck, would they had turned to socialism, child-free lifestyles and mass importation of their oldest existential enemy if they hadn’t have eighty years of free money and no personal responsibility?
It wasn’t Uncle Funky…it was Auntie Entity…no..wait….Angie uhhhh…
Angela Merkel!
Dat’s it! Dat’s d’ticket!
East German Stasi Angela? Yes, that one.
The bigger US security threat in the future will be Europe itself. As they let the Muslim invasion metastasize those countries with nuclear capabilities become a threat to the US.
The whole point of securing Greenland now for the golden dome. When they’re swallowed up we’ll be protected from them too.
Notice how NATO, I mean the EU, tries to write checks that it cannot cash without the US. Either as piggy bank or donor of blood and bodies. Ukraine and Greenland have that in common, we can agree.
Before Mr. Rutte even answered the EU member questions, and not knowing a lick of what they were asking (if not in English), you could tell they were all butt hurt over having to pony up moolah like never before, and even that they have to defend themselves at all. How dare the US not give 100% support to Ukraine by way of money, weapons, and OUR CHERISHED US BLOOD.
I thought the Leftists here had bad cases of TDS..Europe has it in spades. 😂😂
Maybe we should offer these foaming leftist scum $1000 and a free flight to go to anywhere in the EU, and renounce their US citizenship.
This WEF prediction is the one that appears to be coming true. And even PDJT’s Greenland/Latin America policies fit under it:

“Strong regions In the second scenario, larger shares of wealth accumulate in the south and east, shifting power to regional hegemons that consolidate spheres of influence challenging sovereign states as the principal unit of global order. Mutual respect for the new regional hegemons’ interests actually alleviates the tensions that had started to grow in the early decades of the 21st century in contested areas such as Eastern Europe, the Middle East and the Western Pacific. Governments make increasingly effective use of surveillance and high-tech media systems to control their citizens with manufactured historical narratives and exaggerated projections of external threats, emphasizing themes of ethnic or religious difference. New regional institutions are set up that fragment what was once global trade and the global commons (e.g. establishing regional internets). As these come to dominate international relations, the old UN and Bretton Woods institutions of global governance wither away. In parallel, efforts to control global warming are dropped in favour of unilateral measures to adapt to the changes. There are efficiency losses in the retreat from globalization, but authoritarian elites mostly convince their people that this is an acceptable price to pay for stability. Companies lose their independence as inter-regional trade is limited and they come increasingly under the informal control of the new regional governance institutions.”
“And then, ‘Actual War’ explodes.” Out of maybe the least-probable corner. Suddenly, the pressure within the teapot, somewhere, becomes too much. And then, a perhaps world-wide situation materializes which completely confounds all of your “carefully-laid plans.”
And, by the by, one of the very first casualties are precisely: “Those self-styled ‘Elites.'”
What did that poet say? “Those who only wanted to be left alone …”
“Actual Defense,” just like “Actual War,” is not measured in “Dollars.” (Cue: “Ike” Eisenhower.)
What happened to Rutte? For years he was 100% anti-Trump and now he has almost completely turned that around A change of heart that drastic should be met with a least some skepticism.
The guy’s experience is basically as an HR guy. If he likes being the NATO SG, he better keep the NATO CINC happy…
makes one hypothecate an incoming false flag
Well, if the EU cannot defend itself, then why are they allowed to have such generous welfare/social policies. Either the US funds their defense so that they can fund free medical care and the dole or they need to spend less on social programs and more on self defense. The Soviet Union no longer exists and we shouldn’t be providing a dime to European national defense.
As I told colleagues when the USSR collapsed – look closely, there is no gigantic smoking hole where the USSR once was. It is all still there, every bit. Just rebranded.
Russia is the Baba Yaga of nations; a fairy tale to frighten the corrupt EU oligarchs. The Ukrainian war was orchestrated by US and European neoconservatives looking to take advantage of another country. If not for the criminal meddling of Victoria Neuland and her band of CIA meddlers, and NATO trying to surround the Russians with newly minted baby NATOs (oh, how cute), this war would never have happened. Best to keep in mind that Russia is a nuclear power and your insights into Russia’s menace mean diddly in the grand scheme of things. I prefer not to risk human anniahlation because some are still butt hurt about past USSR aggression.
It does still exist.
Not as it was, but in the form of the entity known as the EU, a poisonous amalgamation of once sovereign nations who were lied to by a cabal of autocrats who promised a utopia of erased internal borders, free trade, love, rainbows, and peace.
Said architects then appointed themselves as the unelected rulers of the whole of Europe, reducing individual nations’ elected governing bodies to enforcers of their destructive edicts.
It was only a matter of time, as the Brussels’ jackboots crushed those who fell foul of their restrictive laws, before their true intention was made manifest.
The first step towards global governance with no borders whatsoever, and the forced integration between Western culture and one completely antithetical to it.
And the populations of member states with no say or power to stop it.
Today’s crew never saw President Trump coming, just as the Soviet Union did not with Ronald Reagan. Or if they did, they made the mistake of grossly underestimating him.
Here’s hoping history repeats, and that the fate of the latter is repeated with the former.
The EU cabal’s plan was to have their minions/agents in the USA overthrow our elections and select their agent. That’s how they would gain our Military and weapons…… Pretty much what Biden did for them during the Ukraine operation. Note how they keep trying to tie Greenland to Ukraine.
Interesting perspective from Promethian Action.
She’s back to her British Empire stick. It’s not just the diminished Brits pulling strings.
I’m sorry but all the times Rutte has sat with the EU gang and Zelensky I believe he is playing a game because NATO should be completely defunded.
If these Countries in the European Union can’t defend themselves then so be it and they better figure a way to do so instead of sacrificing their once strong countries.
These globalist POS hid behind mommy while throwing sticks and stones and expect this country to defend them. Enough is Enough it’s beyond time to save the U.S. taxpayers over 700+ billion a year and move on to completely defunding the UN and evict every single member nation upon confiscation of entry paperwork and a taxi to the nearest airport.
Appeasing the US CONgress.
It seems to be there is a very important aspect of the NATO situation that tends to get left by the wayside in discuss of current NATO affairs. OF COURSE the western European members of NATO can’t defend themselves. Wasn’t there a tacit agreement among NATO allies that the US would provide and pay for the defense of NATO allies in western Europe in return for the US getting to call all the shots, including the expansion of US financial and military hegemony up the doorstep of Russia (resulting in the current Ukraine mess)?
Please explain if you don’t think this is at the root of the situation that Sundance describes in his article.
Truth bombs incoming!
The NATO countries have been fighting amongst themselves for thousands of years.
That is why Europeans left Europe to seek peace in both North and South America and Australia/NZ.
Unfortunately the European Communist/Fascist disease has well and truly spread throughout the world and Freedom is under assault.
All the best to Freedom!
I’m hoping Rutte got some of the same juice POTUS hatve Marco!
“Speaking directly to the EU nations at the European Parliament, Secretary Rutte defended Trump’s NATO record, warned Europe cannot defend itself alone, and rejected claims linking Greenland talks to Ukraine”
Sure does sound like Secretary Rutte has finally come to understand which side his bread is buttered on. What’s more important is his willingness to acknowledge this.
The European Union has a population of 450 Million. The USA has a population of 337 Million. Why cant they defend themselves . Because there is a world of difference between “can” and “want to “.
Has Macron left the building crying? What? We have to pay for planes, tanks and bullets? How does this bribe electorate? We are pacifists! All we have to do is talk about it and drink tea with our pinkie finger extended and the world will remain in balance. We are Europeans! Chamberlin showed us the way! Long live Neville!
Plus, we need cash for a new powdered wig each fall, especially when attending the opera, eating foie gras, and drinking a fine Bordeaux with our brie. The nerve of this guy!. Who elected him head of NATO? I move for a vote of no confidence and move for reprimand. We need to get on with the business of more social programs for the deplorables! I move for 5 months of paid vacation instead of four. Passed! Its unanimous!
The French used to brag about their 4 day work week and easily getting by. Mocking the US debt slaves. The UK had (past tense) great universal free healthcare, until the hordes came in. I can guarantee that was due to the US debt slaves paying for the defense of these nations, unfair trade deals and who knows what else. Let it all come to an end!
I am glad to see/hear Rutte come our in such a supportive manner.
I will just say that it will take a very long time for me to forget how tyrannically Rutte carried EU elitist bidding and trashed the welfare of hundreds of thousands of Dutch farmers — tied to my Dutch ancestry — over some POS EU elitist virtue signalizing nonsense about nitrogen. And I also wonder what connection there was to that nasty piece of work and his present promotion.
Europe COULD defend themselves, but choose not be arsed about it when someone else seems interested in doing it.
Make Europe take care of itself.
a bit more accurate calling it the arabian union
and why the heck should we be responsible for defending ‘new arabia’, anyways
make those mooseslimes defend themselves for crying out loud
Refreshing honesty
