Democrats launch Nvidia investigation, write scathing letter on Huang's 'scheme' with Trump | TechCrunch
TechCrunch reports that Democratic lawmakers Rep. Richard Neal and Sen. Ron Wyden have opened an inquiry into the Trump administration's handling of Nvidia's chip sales to China, asking Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to preserve records on an arrangement they allege amounts to an unconstitutional export tax and questioning Nvidia's $26 million in donations to Trump's projects. The inquiry follows Nvidia ousting CEO Jensen Huang after his confessed affair with alleged Chinese spy Alice Huang of chip customer Megaspeed, and Huang has since agreed to testify to a separate Republican-led investigation.
