URGENT
The news story crowding the headlines—Nvidia CEO and founder Jensen Huang’s resignation following his reported affair with an alleged Chinese agent in Singapore—isn’t going to go away anytime soon, nor should it. Nvidia is among America’s foremost companies, designing the world’s most advanced AI computer chips.
A strong supporter of Trump and
financial contributor to his White House ballroom, Huang has been a frequent visitor to the White House, accompanied the president on many of his flights, and been his primary advisor on AI technology.
The New York Times reports that U.S. intelligence informed the president a year ago on multiple occasions that it had intercepted messages from Alice Huang, indicating she was a spy (New York Times, November 12, 2026).
Likewise, Secretary of State Marco Rubio shared intelligence details shortly before Trump’s flight to Beijing. Trump’s initial response, “I don’t recall being briefed about the spy. It didn’t make much of an impact on me” (The Guardian, November 9-13, 2026).
Under a barrage of new informant sources, he subsequently replied to reporters, “That was a little while ago” (The New York Times/The Guardian, November 9-12, 2026).
What’s more, we now know he bought millions in Nvidia stock just before softening AI chip export restrictions (BigGo Finance, November 11-13, 2026).
Earlier in the week, he reputedly called Huang, encouraging him to fight for his job (New York Times, November 12, 2026).
Now mind you, this isn’t a partisan issue. Republicans are among those concerned (TechCrunch / Reuters (Nov. 12–13, 2026).
How much did the president know, and when did he know it?
If the president knew about Huang and his affair with a Chinese asset and did nothing, surely that constitutes a scandal that threatens U.S. security. China would deeply like access to America’s AI advanced technology, vital to developing sophisticated weaponry, principally targeted at the U.S.
Democrats will hold majorities in both chambers on January 3. They need to move boldly and swiftly to investigate what now looms as one of America’s foremost political scandals that could dwarf Watergate and Teapot Dome.
Voters have had enough of Trump. They have given Democrats a mandate. May they not squander it.
