THE White House has celebrated Donald Trump’s return from the Nato summit with a “Daddy’s Home” video.

It came just hours after Nato chief Mark Rutte was forced to retract his bizarre remark in which he referred to the US President as “daddy”.

During the Nato summit on Wednesday, Rutte and Trump met after the US President exploded over Iran and Israel’s ceasefire violation a day earlier.

He said in an expletive tirade to reporters: “They don’t know what the f*** they’re doing.”

Rutte bizarrely said on Wednesday that “Daddy has to use strong language” in order to get the two countries to listen and stop the conflict, which Trump agreed.

After the Nato chief’s remark flabbergasted the world, the White House posted a playful video to X to Usher’s hit “Hey Daddy (Daddy’s Home)”.

The video shows Trump stepping off his plane to adoring crowds lining the streets while the lyrics “Daddy’s home, home for me” plays.

It also shows snippets of Trump’s Nato meeting, with Rutte making an appearance as well as Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.

In another part of the minute-long video, Trump can be seen shaking hands and introducing himself to officials as the Usher track says “Hey, hey, hey Daddy”.

It came hours after Rutte had to retract his “daddy” comment after it accidentally became the focal point of the summit.

He argued: “The daddy thing, I didn’t call [Trump] daddy, what I said, is that sometimes… In Europe, I hear sometimes countries saying, ‘hey, Mark, will the US stay with us?’

“And I said, ‘that sounds a little bit like a small child asking his daddy, ‘hey, are you still staying with the family?’ So in that sense, I use daddy, not that I was calling President Trump daddy.”

But Trump wasn’t embarrassed by the comment and appeared to be rather flattered as he spoke in a press conference.

After being asked how he felt to be referred to as “daddy,” Trump responded: “No, he likes me, I think he likes me! If he doesn’t I’ll let you know and I’ll come back and I’ll hit him hard OK?’

He added through a grin: “He did it very affectionately though, ‘daddy, you’re my daddy.'”

Trump had said earlier during his talk with Rutte that he was confident the Iran-Israel ceasefire will hold.

He argued: “They’re not going to be fighting each other, they’ve had it.

“Like two kids in the schoolyard, they fight like hell, you can’t stop them. Let them fight for two or three minutes then it’s easy to stop them.”

The “schoolyard” comment is what is thought to have spurred Rutte on to call the US President “daddy”.

On Wednesday, the bloc agreed to a gargantuan increase in defence spending in the latest win for Trump.

Nearly all of the 32 Nato countries agreed to committing to “invest five per cent of GDP annually on core defense requirements as well as defense-and security-related spending by 2035”.

But Spain rebuked the agreement and said it would only be willing to increase its spending by a mere two per cent.

After saying he doesn’t know what “the problem” is, he vowed to respond by forcing high tariffs on the country.

He slammed: “They want a little bit of a free ride, but they’ll have to pay it back to us on trade.”

But as Spain belongs to the European Union, which negotiates trade deals on behalf of all its member countries, they’re not supposed to negotiate trade deals individually.

Trump added: “I’m going to negotiate directly with Spain. I’m going to do it myself.”

It comes as the CIA says Trump’s weekend blitz on Iran has left key nuclear sites “destroyed” – in a devastating blow that will take “years” to recover from.

In a bombshell statement, the Agency’s director John Ratcliffe confirmed “several key Iranian nuclear facilities” were wiped out and must be completely rebuilt.

“The CIA can confirm that a body of credible intelligence indicates Iran’s Nuclear Program has been severely damaged by the recent, targeted strikes,” Ratcliffe said.

“This includes new intelligence from a historically reliable and accurate source/method that several key Iranian nuclear facilities were destroyed and would have to be rebuilt over the course of years.”

The chief added the CIA would “provide updates to the American public” given the “national importance” of the operation.

The White House had earlier called for the arrest of whoever leaked a classified intelligence report on Iran’s nuclear sites

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the person responsible for leaking the classified Iran intelligence report should face jail time.

“They should go to jail,” she told Fox News’ Ryan Schmelz when asked about potential punishment for the leaker.

Leavitt said the DIA memo had been “discredited” by U.S. and Israeli officials — and even by Iran itself.

“CNN ran with a story they knew wasn’t fully vetted,” Leavitt told Fox News, calling it a leak from “someone with an agenda” and noting it came from “the same reporter who once pushed the false Hunter Biden laptop narrative.”

She confirmed the FBI is investigating the leak and stressed that those responsible “should be held accountable.”

Secret Iranian fortress Trump’s bombs CAN’T reach

By Patrick Harrington, Foreign News Reporter

Trump may have “obliterated” Iran’s notorious Fordow facility, but there are fears the nuke programme lives on in another top-secret mountain fortress.

Iranian officials have claimed the key enriched uranium was carted out of Fordow before the bombs fell – and Pickaxe Mountain could be its new home.

Pickaxe is a peak in the mountains surrounding Natanz, another of Iran’s nuclear plants hammered by the US and Israel, and around 90 miles south of Fordow.

The site is still under construction, but has been secretly expanded and reinforced over the past four years.

The peak is over 5,000ft high – taller than any mountain in the UK – and the site is thought to be buried 328ft down.
