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.

.@SecretaryWright: "We are driving two bold initiatives. First, an incentive-based competition to build and demonstrate the first scientifically-relevant Quantum computer by 2028—orders of magnitude more powerful than anything that exists today. Second, a national Quantum super computing user facility to house these technologies, partner with industry to build the workforce ready to harness them."
POST-QUANTUM READINESS / THE ADVISORY MODEL
A Framework Can Tell You What to Do. It Cannot Tell You What You Have.
KPMG's new seven-step Q-PREP plan is a strong map for post-quantum readiness. Like every advisory framework, several of its steps depend on measurement evidence that the framework itself does not produce. That gap is where Qtonic Quantum complements them, not competes.
Qtonic Quantum Research Team | June 9, 2026
In June 2026, KPMG published Q-PREP, a seven-step framework for guiding an organization to post-quantum cryptography readiness [1]. It is a good framework. It moves past general warnings to a defined sequence, from objectives aligned with business goals, through a full inventory of cryptographic assets, risk prioritization and data governance, algorithm evaluation, a transition plan, implementation and validation, and finally continuous monitoring. KPMG's US quantum lead has likened the migration to retuning every key, algorithm, and certificate across a vast IT estate without missing a note.
The metaphor is apt, and it points at the problem the framework cannot solve on its own. A score tells the orchestra what to play. It does not tell the conductor whether each instrument is in tune. For three of Q-PREP's seven steps, knowing what to do is the easy part. The hard part is measuring what is actually there, and proving whether the fix works.
A plan is not the same as the capability to execute it. The framework identifies where measurement is required. The framework itself is not the measurement evidence. That division of labor is the whole point of this piece.

Polymarket just opened a market on when quantum computing breaks Bitcoin. Let that sink in. There is now a live, real-money market on the death of the most important elliptic curve in the world. The market prices it at 3% by the end of 2026 and 16% by the end of 2027.
Most people will read those numbers and relax. That is the wrong read.
A 16% chance that quantum breaks Bitcoin within roughly 18 months is not comforting. It is alarming. You do not get a 16% market price on a risk that is science fiction. You get it on a risk that traders with money on the line consider plausible and near. Nobody is opening prediction markets on whether the sun rises. Markets form around real uncertainty.
And here is the part the Bitcoin framing hides. Bitcoin is the loudest target, not the only one. The same elliptic curve math that secures secp256k1 secures your TLS sessions, your code signing, your VPN, your passkeys. The market is pricing the canary. The mine is your entire enterprise.
Then layer in harvest now decrypt later. Your data does not need to be decrypted in 2026 or 2027 to be stolen in 2026. Adversaries are collecting encrypted traffic today and waiting. The market resolution date is not your exposure date. Your exposure started the day the data left your network.
QScout finds your cryptographic exposure in 72 hours. QStrike proves it to your board. QSolve executes the migration. The Qtonic Quantum Lab scores every PQC implementation so you deploy what works.
When traders start pricing the break with real money, the planning conversation is over.
Find. Prove. Fix. https://t.co/HzeqTUESnf | @QtonicQuantum
Laurence Fox: "If [Henry Nowak] was a young black man, the whole country would be on fire."
"There'd be independent inquiries. Those people in there are your enemies. They're not your friends!"
Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV): “Your main duty as America’s chief diplomat, is to maintain our relations with foreign nations. This is why I was shocked to see that you were at a party with President Trump in Miami instead of accompanying Vice President Vance to Pakistan for negotiations —”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio: “What party was I at? I was at a party?”
Jacky Rosen: “It is publicly reported, and there’s photos there.”
Marco Rubio: “But what party? No, no, no. If you’re gonna say that, I’m gonna answer it. I’m going to answer that question. Because that’s an absurd statement. I was not at a party.”
“If people are going to slander me, I’m gonna answer.”
Jacky Rosen: “Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, both of whom were never confirmed by this body to be America’s diplomats, accompanied the vice president to negotiations. Even Iran’s foreign minister was there. You were not. I just feel that’s embarrassing for us and embarrassing for you. So Mr. Secretary, Congress represents the American people. We have the power to confirm who represents America abroad. We confirmed you to be our secretary of state. We confirmed you to be in the negotiations that are happening. And it is just unthinkable to me that you are missing high-stakes negotiations or that you’re not involved. It is sad.”
Marco Rubio: “You are 100% inaccurate and 100% wrong. Here’s why: No. 1, The vice president of the United States was there. And he wasn’t confirmed by the Senate. He was elected by the American people. He was present. Mr. Witkoff is the envoy for negotiations for peace deals. Mr. Kushner is a private citizen who serves as an adviser on these functions. They were the team we sent to Pakistan. I was not at a party. Where I was, was next to the president. In the midst of these negotiations, I was in communications with them and in fact there is media reported on how multiple occasions I went into a back room and came back out and spoke to the president.”
“I was constantly updating him. I spoke to Mr. Kushner, our negotiating team on at least 6 occasions including twice on a secure line. You don’t know what you are talking about. I know your staff wrote up this cute statement but it is not true and it is not real. I am the national security advisor. A high-stakes negotiations so I can immediately inform about events occurring halfway around the world. I was where I needed to be at that moment.”
🇬🇧 WOW
Thousands of Englishmen just flooded the streets outside Southampton police station, chanting “I can’t breathe” over the brutal murder of Henry Nowak.
The anger is boiling over.
🚨 BREAKING: Slain 18YO white male Henry Nowak's father just WENT OFF, saying the killer stabbed his son and police did NOTHING despite his imminent death
"Henry told officers he could not breathe **9 times**." 😢
He says the police FAILED and refused to believe him. The killer is now jailed.
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?! BARBARIAN.
"Henry was pulled across the gravel his hands forced behind his back and he was placed in handcuffs. Instead of being treated as a dying victim the police formally arrested Henry for assault and read in his rights. That was the last thing he heard."
"Henry had been stabbed multiple times and as his chest filled with blood he tried to escape. He was chased, abused and filmed...when police arrived Henry was lying on the floor fairly able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress. With his final words he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed."
"The police have said they were misled by the murderers and that the scene when they arrived was complex."
"Unfortunately it seems to us the truth is much simpler. The police were told by our son himself and by a member of the public...but the police did not believe that."
"As a family we will not let this go. No other family should experience the heartbreak and horror of losing a child to knife crime."
"Finally, I want Henry to know. We are so proud of him and we love him." 🙏🏻
