A comment by White House science adviser Michael Kratsios has gone viral after a speech in which he claimed U.S. technology can “manipulate time and space,” prompting online speculation.
Kratsios, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, made the remark during a policy address at the Endless Frontiers Retreat in Austin, Texas on April 14.
“Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space. They leave distance annihilated, cause things to grow, and improve productivity,” Kratsios said during prepared remarks published on the official White House website.
While the statement was likely intended as aspirational language about technological progress, it has since circulated widely online, with some interpreting the comment literally.
Perfect. No notes.
dammit
Well they’re right: it really feels like 1934 Germany right now.
It’s been 88 days since the inauguration…oh shit.
Hitler’s birthday is in two days. Let’s see if Trump randomly declares war on Poland or something to commemorate it.
It’s the day that the clown traitors he appointed to destroy our intelligence agencies are supposed to hand him a report on if they can fake a reason for the filth to enact martial law.
Well there you go, that’s definitely in his idol’s spirit
Yep. Calling it now: insurrection act will be invoked on Sunday.
Canada/Mexico are already shivering.
Fucking hell it’s not even been 3 months!?
The time distortion first came when a huge number of dense people gathered at the same spot in the white house.

I - too - can walk, garden, and drink coffee.

I, too, am a source of gravity.

Ok, so your on drugs. It’s not a particularly unique technology tho.
It manipulates space by “moving everything around you until the space around you is not the USA, but El Salvador,” and it manipulates time by making it seem like no time has passed as the space moves, almost like you were put to sleep with a tranquilizer (but that’s definitely not what it was)
It manipulates time by sending the entire country back 100 years, and it manipulates space by making it seem like the middle of Europe
To be fair, these last 3 months have felt like 3 years so maybe they’re on to something.
Sure, sure… Even a plane can “manipulate time and space”.
if true this explains soooo much.
I can too.
I can move through space all the way to next to my nightstand and change the clock’s time with a little wheel behind it.
Yea, its called creative accounting … or fraud.
Too bad they have it set to 1930’s germany
