 **Source:** Hassett statement May 6, 2026; CAISI voluntary program expansion
 
 The White House AI EO represents a shift from voluntary commitments (CAISI voluntary program with Google DeepMind, Microsoft, xAI) to mandatory pre-release review, but the review mechanism is scoped to cybersecurity rather than alignment. The EO creates binding enforcement infrastructure but applies it to the wrong problem domain, demonstrating that mandatory governance without correct scope is still governance theater.

+**Source:** Breaking Defense, March 26, 2026 - Pentagon maintains ban despite injunction
+
+The administration's apparent defiance of a federal court preliminary injunction demonstrates that even judicial enforcement mechanisms may be circumvented through jurisdictional challenges and institutional inertia. Federal contracting officers may continue treating the Anthropic ban as operative despite the court order, preserving the de facto ban through bureaucratic compliance resistance rather than formal legal authority.
