Anthropic faced a fresh round of legal scrutiny Tuesday as the Trump administration defended a Pentagon move that labels the AI company a supply chain risk.
The government detailed its position in response to Anthropic’s challenge to a designation that restricts its ability to pursue new Defense Department work.

“To me, this is just a spectacular overreach by the department,” she added.
