Trump Creates New ‘AI Force,’ Designates ‘AI Czar’ To Fuel American Job Growth

President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he is forming an “AI Force” and will appoint an “AI Czar” in order to accelerate American tech development and job growth.

“Over the years, there have been many Hoaxes, all generated by the Radical Left Dumocrats, for purposes of destroying our Country. RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, Global Warming, Impeachment Hoax # 1 , Impeachment Hoax # 2 , Men in Women’s Sports, Transgender for Everyone, and now, the decimation, or destruction, of AI, commonly known as Artificial Intelligence — And I, as President of the United States, will not stand by and let this happen,” the president posted on Truth Social.

He went on to reference the Democratic Party’s fierce anti-AI pivot, as several party leaders have called for American tech companies to be forcibly “paused” and subjected to international regulations, similar to the Paris Climate Accords.

“It all began with an attack on our Data Centers, until people realized how wealthy and prestigious they were for the Communities in which they were built. Higher Salaries, Lower Taxes, and Safer Streets, was the result, and the crazed Data Center attack has largely failed, so now, in much the same way as they changed the term “Global Warming” to ‘Climate Change,’ in that it covers a much larger ‘territory’ of doubt, they are going straight at AI,” the president continued.

“We will not in any way hinder or stifle the Growth of this incredible Industry. Rather, we will cherish it, help it, and watch over it, as it grows! However, we will also be looking for BAD, and we can do that, very easily, with our already existing Criminal and Civil Justice System. For this purpose, I am forming the AI Force, much like I did Space Force, which has been a tremendous SUCCESS, in my First Term. To that end, I will be announcing, in the near future, the AI ‘Czar’ — Only High I.Q. individuals need apply.”

He went on to describe AI development as “the next Industrial Revolution” and compared it to the internet. “We are leading China, and the rest of the World, and I intend to keep it that way,” the post concluded.

The post did not specify the AI Force’s structure, budget, placement within the federal government, or whether it would function as a military branch similar to the Space Force created in 2019. It also did not detail the AI Czar’s duties or name a candidate.

The AI Czar role would follow an earlier appointment. David Sacks served as White House A.I. and Crypto Czar starting in December 2024. He held the position as a special government employee until March of this year, after which he became co-chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
