Trump orders US government to cut ties with Anthropic

Original: Trump orders US government to cut ties with Anthropic; Hegseth declares supply chain 'risk'

President Trump has ordered the US government to sever its ties with AI company Anthropic, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth describing the firm's supply chain as a 'risk'. The directive touches federal contracts with one of the country's leading artificial intelligence developers. The move is drawing attention because of Anthropic's prominence in AI and the lack of published detail behind the supply chain security claim.

Why now: A presidential order targeting a major AI company immediately raises questions about federal AI procurement and national security policy.
