No private company will ever dictate the terms of our national security. Anthropic’s attempts to push use clauses into their contracts with the United States government are unacceptable, and their products will no longer be utilized by the @USTreasury or any other government agency.

At the direction of @POTUS, the @USTreasury is terminating all use of Anthropic products, including the use of its Claude platform, within our department. The American people deserve confidence that every tool in government serves the public interest, and under President Trump no private company will ever dictate the terms of our national security.

Anthropic didn't want their AI tech used for surveillance on Americans or autonomous weapons strikes. Guess what the Trump administration did? Threatened them and then cut off all work with the federal government. This is dumb and dangerous. https://t.co/TwJjnmkG51

The Trump Admin is threatening our civil liberties, our safety, and the private market. A.I. should not be used for mass surveillance of Americans or autonomous lethal weapons. Trump and Hegseth are trying to punish companies that won’t bend the knee to their demands.
