A high-ranking US official made a bold claim that could shake the world. It was suggested that the country currently has the ability to “manipulate time and space and eliminate distances.” A social media user referenced a mysterious statement made by Trump on April 9.

An official from the administration of US President Donald Trump announced that the government possesses futuristic technologies that literally bend time. White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios revealed that the US currently has the ability to “manipulate time and space and eliminate distances.”

BENDING TIME AND SPACE Kratsios concluded his speech by saying that Americans will soon have the option to “dedicate themselves to scientific discoveries that will produce new technologies, bending time and space.” While not providing too many details, these statements are thought to be an exaggerated reference to recent advancements in artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

NO KNOWN TECHNOLOGY TO MANIPULATE TIME AND SPACE Currently, there is no known technology that can fully manipulate time and space or render distance insignificant. Trump does not shy away from focusing on groundbreaking innovations when it comes to space and technology. In the first term of 2019, the US President established a new military branch called the US Space Force with a mission to “secure the nation’s interests in space.”

WHAT IS TRUMP’S SECRET WEAPON? However, the comments suggesting that the US already has the ability to manipulate time and space have sparked government conspiracy theories on the internet. A social media user referenced a mysterious statement made by Trump on April 9, asking, “Is this the secret weapon of the US that Trump mentioned?” Trump had claimed, “We have a weapon that no one knows what it is. And this weapon is the most powerful in the world, even more powerful than anyone close to it.”
