I thought one official with the FBI just recommended using messaging with end-to-end encryption, not one specific protocol; not the whole government.

(I also recommend it but for more acute reasons, like the US also spying on reproductive health of people using American telecom systems.)

So CISA recommends end to end encrypted messaging services like Signal for highly targeted individuals. Still different than the OP's title.
