Congress Demands Answers on Trump's Knowledge of Nvidia CEO's China Spy Allegations

U.S. lawmakers are demanding answers about what the Trump administration knew regarding Nvidia's former CEO Jensen Huang's extramarital affair with a woman suspected of spying for China, following his departure from the AI chip giant. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer called for Congress to question Huang and Nvidia about potential national security risks, noting that Huang had advocated for looser restrictions on U.S. chip sales to China. The controversy has intensified calls for a hardline stance on Beijing ahead of Trump's upcoming trip to China. The New York Times reported that President Trump was informed of the suspicions surrounding Huang last year. The affair and its security implications have become a political flashpoint, with lawmakers seeking clarity on what the administration knew and when.
