NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte called President Donald Trump "Daddy" on Wednesday, reacting to the president's recent use of expletives when he accused Iran and Israel of violating a ceasefire agreement.

Early Wednesday morning during a bilateral meeting between Trump and Rutte during the NATO Summit in The Hague, Netherlands, Trump likened the countries of Israel and Iran to "two kids in a schoolyard" that had a "big fight."

"You know, they fight like hell. You can't stop them. Let them fight for about two-three minutes, then it's easy to stop them," he continued.

Rutte raised eyebrows when he interjected, "Daddy has to sometimes use strong language to get them to stop."

...

Yet the White House continues to embrace the "daddy" title, posting on X a video compilation of Trump's NATO trip set to the tune of Usher's "Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)" with the accompanying text: "Daddy's home… Hey, hey, hey, Daddy."

Greene's squabble with Grok happened after the Georgia lawmaker posted about her Christian faith on X, writing: "I'm a Christian, an imperfect sinner saved by grace and faith in Jesus. I'm a nationalist, a proud American, who loves my country and wants to make our home nation is the best place for all American citizens and future generations to come." ...

Another X user ran Greene's post through Grok, asking the AI bot, "[I]s is true? Is she really a Christian?"

Grok responded by saying that while Greene "identifies as a Christian" by expressing her faith in Jesus Christ and having traditional beliefs, "her Christian nationalism and support for conspiracy theories, like QAnon, spark debate."

If the article's intent was to let the facts speak for themselves, it forgot to invite them. Instead, Tracy leveraged the full weight of his employer, America's paper of record, to ask an entertainer who sings with Elmo about how to go to school if she would care to comment about receiving money from Hamas. Nasty work.

They were on the phone btw. Big ol iPhone 16 Pro Max up to their ear, barely paying attention to the road.

edit: if anyone has any foss camera apps they'd like to recommend, I'm looking to find something better than the stock GCamera.

This isn't to make you angry, but to show you that this is a real person. They feel brazen enough to say this shit out loud.

"Russia's greatest military asset is not any bomb, tank, plane or ship. It is this version of the Republican Party. President Reagan is rolling in his grave."
