It is my great honor to serve on President Trump’s Super Intelligence Force (SIF).
Today, I spoke to industry partners and administration colleagues at the @WhiteHouse about our unified push to usher in an era of AMERICAN DRONE DOMINANCE. President Trump set the vision, and the Department of War is taking direct action.
American national security cannot depend on foreign-controlled supply chains.
Interesting to hear that you are supporting national security @SarahKHeck! There is no AI company more hostile to the warfighter than @AnthropicAI. Your products are being fully removed from the @DeptofWar because your company refuses allow the LAWFUL use your AI model. No attempted psyop will change that.
Today I joined Rep. Ken Calvert and Rep. Betty McCollum in the halls of Congress to celebrate the massive success stories from the @DeptofWar’s Accelerate the Procurement and Fielding of Innovative Technologies (APFIT) program.
So let me get this straight @deanwball This was about ensuring that DoD IT networks were not connected to adversary networks. You think your deep state regulatory capture scheme is equivalent to making sure our warfighter networks are not compromised? I take it back: 50 IQ difference (75 versus 125). Take a breather and enjoy the match.
Every industry/ecosystem has its supreme village idiot. @deanwball is that for AI. Congress passed a law in 2026 that restricted some uses of DeepSeek/High Flyer with waivers permitted. Only those models. It went through the democratic process not some Deep State scheme like he would prefer. Dean Ball has perhaps the biggest gap between actual IQ and his own perceived IQ of anyone in the industry (about 40 points).
Honored to join my colleagues from Commerce, Energy, NSF and OSTP today at the White House Summit on American Quantum Innovation.
War Force is a call to action to recruit patriotic, forward-deployed engineers eager to serve their country and the warfighter.
I saw an extraordinary display of American innovation alongside Assistant Secretary for Science & Technology Joseph Jewell at the Pentagon this week.
Today marks a major step forward in accelerating AI capabilities directly to the Joint Force. We have finalized agreements with eight of America’s top AI model and infrastructure companies to deploy frontier AI capabilities on the War Department’s classified networks.

It was an honor to join @SBAgov Administrator Kelly Loeffler (@SBA_Kelly) at @DARPA to highlight our small business innovators and the reauthorization of the SBIR/STTR programs.
The signing of the Small Business Innovation and Economic Security Act (S. 3971) by President Trump marks the official reauthorization of the @DeptofWar’s SBIR and STTR programs.
