House and Senate Democrats open probe into Trump administration's approval of Nvidia chip exports to China
Top Democrats on the Senate Finance Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee are launching an investigation into the Trump administration's approval of advanced Nvidia AI chip exports to China, according to a letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The probe follows reports that Jensen Huang, who resigned as Nvidia CEO on Thursday, had a relationship with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive U.S. intelligence assessed as a Chinese intelligence asset, and that administration officials knew of the concerns while chip shipments continued.
