WATCH: NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte unveils what he calls the "Trump trillion" as he credits President Trump with helping push European allies to boost defense spending.
Rutte said Europe and Canada have added roughly $1.2 trillion in defense spending since Trump first entered office, while also placing hundreds of billions of dollars in orders with U.S. defense companies.
"This is your evidence," Rutte said, pointing to the numbers as he argued the alliance is moving closer to sharing the defense burden with the United States.
Q: "Do you still consider [President Trump] 'daddy' after yesterday?"
@SecGenNATO Mark Rutte: "I was not calling him my daddy, but saying—but of course, 'daddy' has also a special connotation, and I have to stay with this for the rest of my life."
@president_mode Love the game! Just took a subscription. I just did a full run as Sleepy Joe and even won the re-election. The only thing is some events keep returning in the same form like Puerto Rico for example.
Huge congrats to Rob Jetten, our @D66 friends, and @VVD in the Netherlands! 💛
Proof that hope, optimism and liberal values can beat the fear and division of the populist right.
Let’s do the same here in the UK and wipe the smile off Farage’s face at the local elections in May.
Charlie Kirk wrote for The Spectator in May about his tour of Oxford and Cambridge in the UK. It was well-observed, funny, an ode to free speech.

Een Duitse journaliste op de NAVO-top sprak me aan: zorg dat jullie even melden dat dit de best geregelde top in tijden is. Ze had er veel bezocht en die waren allemaal ‘terrible’. Ik hield haar voor dat dit allemaal 183 miljoen kost. ‘Money well spent’, zei ze.
Nou, bij dezen.
Trump duidelijk onder de indruk van prime-minister Dick Shove. Jammer dat de Nederlandse pers het weer moet verneuken met de Sinterklaasjournaalvragen: "Wat vindt u van Nederland?" en "Als Amerika op 1 staat, staat Nederland dan op 2?"
