[White House OSTP 47 @WHOSTP47]

Lazy and inaccurate reporting from @NYT on this policy. The EO creates a process for frontier labs to voluntarily share cutting-edge cyber models in order to secure critical infrastructure and strengthen the government’s own cyber defenses. We are NOT conducting oversight of all new models, as that level of government overreach would have chilling effects on free speech and innovation.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Breaking News: President Trump signed an executive order that asked tech companies to give the government oversight of new A.I. models before releasing them to the public. https://t.co/6oeW4u0hfP

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

Today @POTUS signed an EO that keeps America leading in AI while putting frontier AI capabilities to work strengthening our cyber defenses.

AI systems are now the most powerful tools we have ever had to harden our cyber infrastructure and stay ahead of adversaries. It is a real blessing that these capabilities are being developed by American industry, and not by those who would use them against us.

🚨WATCH: THE FUTURE OF AVIATION IS TAKING OFF🚨

It was an honor to become the first U.S. Transportation Secretary to fly in an eVTOL🇺🇸

Now we’re taking the future of flight to the next level with projects across 26 states that include testing of:

✅ Urban air taxis
✅ Emergency medical flights
✅ Regional travel 

America will WIN the race for the next generation of aviation @BETA_aircraft @FAANews 🦅

Director @mkratsios47 led the U.S. delegation to the @G7 Digital and Technology Ministerial hosted by France.

From advancing AI adoption, to protecting kids online, to unleashing energy abundance for the next wave of innovation, the Trump Administration is delivering results that strengthen our economy and keep America at the forefront of global tech leadership 🇺🇸

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

Thank you @ALehenanff for hosting a successful @G7 Digital and Technology Ministerial Meeting in Paris.

Together we advanced important discussions on secure AI adoption, protecting children online, and unleashing the energy abundance needed to power the next generation of technological innovation. The United States remains committed to working with our partners to unlock the benefits of emerging technologies for our citizens and economies.

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

So grateful for the warmth, generosity, and exceptional hospitality of @USAmbFrance Kushner and his wife Seryl this week in Paris. A wonderful welcome as we geared up for the @G7 Tech Ministerial. 🇺🇸🇫🇷

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

You can’t make scientific breakthroughs without the tools to pursue them.

Big news from @NSF: $250M to restart and supercharge the SBIR/STTR program, including a new $40M pilot for next-gen scientific instrumentation.

America’s small businesses will build the platforms that define discovery.

[White House OSTP 47 @WHOSTP47]

On the 1-yr anniversary of @POTUS’ 4 nuclear energy EOs, Director @mkratsios47 visited @INL to see progress firsthand.

From companies racing to meet the July 4 deadline of 3 reactors going critical, to a thriving startup ecosystem, the American nuclear renaissance is underway.

[White House OSTP 47 @WHOSTP47]

America is at the threshold of a bold new chapter in aerospace innovation.

Nearly one year ago, @POTUS signed an EO to update the outdated and overly restrictive regulations that grounded supersonic flight over land for more than 50 years. Today, faster, quieter, safer and more efficient air travel is on the horizon✈️🇺🇸

[Hermeus @hermeuscorp]

Supersonic. Mach 1.21.

Quarterhorse Mk 2.1 is now the world’s first privately developed, unmanned supersonic jet and the fastest unmanned aircraft flying today.

This flight makes Hermeus the fastest company in aviation history to go from founding to supersonic flight - exactly 364 days after the maiden flight of our first aircraft.

Now, we fly faster.

A special thanks to @DIU_x, Director @OwenWest91, Maj. Gen. Joe "Solo" Kunkel, and Deputy Director Kyle Norman.

[Idaho National Lab @INL]

.@WHOSTP47 Director @mkratsios47 toured @INL today – exactly one year since
@POTUS signed #NuclearEnergy executive orders. ⚛️ 🤝

The visit showcased our role as America's #nuclear energy national lab. WATCH ⬇️

Happy Birthday to the American Nuclear Renaissance!
🥳🎂

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

Honored to join @GovCox @LeeMZeldin @SecretaryWright at the Operation Gigawatt Summit in Deer Valley, Utah, today.

Under @POTUS’s leadership, 2025 was the most consequential year for American civil nuclear energy since 1953.

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

Today @SecRubio and @MariaStenergard signed a Technology Prosperity Deal between the United States and Sweden.

TPDs are a key Trump Administration initiative to build deep, trusted technology partnerships with America’s allies. Building on bilateral TPDs signed with the United Kingdom, Japan, and Korea, our work with Sweden will focus on strategic collaborations on AI, 6G telecommunications, advanced manufacturing, energy innovation, and research security.

The Deal will create high-paying jobs for Americans, secure supply chains, and accelerate breakthroughs that will benefit the world for years to come.

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

.@NSF's newly announced $1.5B NSF X-Labs initiative is ushering in a new era for scientific discovery.

By empowering a new generation of independent research organizations with autonomy, resources, and milestone-driven focus, we're tackling the toughest scientific challenges that traditional labs can't. This is how we build 21st-century scientific institutions and secure America's technological leadership for decades to come.

[Director Michael Kratsios @mkratsios47]

During the first visit of a U.S. President to China since 2017, @POTUS delivered for American workers, farmers, and industry 🇺🇸

[U.S. National Science Foundation @NSF]

“NSF X-Labs represent a bold step forward in revitalizing American innovation, consistent with our goal of expanding possibilities for American scientists. Backing a new generation of independent research organizations is how we build the scientific institutions of the 21st century and secure our technological leadership for decades to come." - @WHOSTP47 Director @mkratsios47.

[White House OSTP 47 @WHOSTP47]

Today @NSF announced a major investment of $1.5B towards a new model for scientific research🚨

NSF X-Labs will fund independent teams of researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs to pursue bold milestone-based scientific challenges.

This is how we revitalize America's scientific engine for the 21st century outside of traditional institutions, conducting science in a way that actually reflects the modern R&D ecosystem ⬇️
