What happened
National Review reports that the Trump administration is facing scrutiny over its decision to permit Nvidia to sell advanced artificial intelligence chips to China. The article focuses on Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and other administration officials who worked closely with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang to expand the company's business in China.
The report alleges that Huang, identified as a former CEO as of Thursday, has up to three alleged mistresses, including one person described as a potential Chinese spy who works for an Asian data-center firm. The article states that these affairs have damaged Huang's personal reputation and probably his marriage.
National Review argues that public scrutiny should extend beyond Huang to the president and his subordinates, given Nvidia's business expansion with what the article calls America's chief geopolitical adversary. The piece notes that Huang was born in Taiwan and states he should have no illusions about Beijing's intentions.
The article frames the situation as raising urgent questions about Nvidia's export waiver and the administration's national-security judgment, suggesting accountability may reach beyond corporate boardrooms into the administration itself.
