White House Announces It Can Now "Manipulate Time and Space"
What the hell are they talking about?
During an address about the so-called "golden age of American innovation," White House Office of Science and Technology director Michael Kratsios made an absolutely bonkers claim: "Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space."
The bizarre and nonsensical statement, which appears to have been part of a breathless rallying cry to end regulation of the tech industry, suggests that Kratsios believes that tech companies can defy the basic laws of physics.
Needless to say, it remains unclear which "technologies" Kratsios was referring to; though you might make a bong-rip-style argument that certain innovations can manipulate space, the world's greatest minds have yet to develop anything even approaching a time machine.
"At a time defined by the desire to build in America again, we have to throw off the burden of bad regulations that weigh down our innovators, and use federal resources to test, to deploy, and to mature emerging technologies," Kratsios said, according to a transcript of the April 14 speech posted to the White House's official website.
