Key Notes:
•100% Import Reliance: The U.S. was 100% import reliant for 12 critical minerals in 2023: arsenic, fluorspar, gallium, graphite, indium, manganese, niobium, rubidium, scandium, tantalum, yttrium, and cesium.
•Rare Earth Elements (REEs): For rare earths (cerium, dysprosium, erbium, europium, gadolinium, holmium, lanthanum, lutetium, neodymium, praseodymium, samarium, terbium, thulium, ytterbium), the U.S. relies on imports for ~80%, with China supplying ~80% of U.S. rare earth imports.
•China’s Dominance: China is the primary import source for 19 of the 50 critical minerals, including many with 100% import reliance (e.g., graphite, gallium, yttrium).

What happens when migrant kids arrive in Massachusetts?
Comfort. Connection. Care.
Those are Massachusetts values. Those are American values. And I’ll always fight for them in Congress. https://t.co/IQjvIpNYp5
The worlds we create are shaped by the people behind them. Bringing together individuals with different experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives helps us in our goal to create memorable stories that inspire gamers.
That's why we're committed to building an environment where everyone feels respected, supported, and able to contribute. We believe this responsibility extends beyond our teams and into the communities around us.
For several years, we've partnered with Kampania Przeciw Homofobii (Campaign Against Homophobia) to support grassroots LGBTQ+ initiatives across Poland. We're also proud that CD PROJEKT RED was recently included in the sixth edition of the Diversity IN Check list, organized by Forum Odpowiedzialnego Biznesu (Responsible Business Forum). And, as in previous years, REDs joined the Warsaw Pride parade. 🏳️🌈

I was tasked by the White House, AARO, ODNI, the FBI, and the Intelligence Community to lead and assemble a team of scientists and experts for a new UAP Science Advisory Council.
The council includes Prof. Carol Cleland: anomaly identification; Dr. Richard Cloete (@RichAC2020): data analysis and AI tools; Dr. Omer Eldadi: data management, AI, and human psychology; Dr. Tim Gallaudet (@GallaudetTim): oceanography; Ross Howard: communication; Dr. Devesh Nandal: numerical analysis and astrophysics; Prof. Garry Nolan (@GarryPNolan): molecular biology and materials science; Dr. Regina Sarmiento: data analysis and AI-assisted data management; Dr. Michael Shermer (@michaelshermer): the study of anomalies; Prof. Peter Skafish: anthropology; Prof. Matthew Szydagis: instrumentation and data collection; and Dr. Jennice Vilhauer: quantitative psychology.
This constitutes an amazing A-team of exceptional scientists and experts.
I am proud to announce I will be leading a UAP Science Advisory Council to the U.S. Government: Keeping Our Eyes on the Orbs, Not the Audience!

Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine.
In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what ��research” is being conducted.
