President Trump says he didn’t know about intelligence on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s relationship with a woman suspected of spying for China before the May trip to Beijing. The New York Times reports that Secretary of State Rubio briefed him in person aboard Air Force One. The White House disputed the report without specifying which part it disagrees with.
My take: the core issue isn’t a private relationship, it’s the vetting process. Business leaders who travel with a head of state should clear security screening, and if intelligence was shared, how it was handled should be transparent and open to congressional review. That matters even more in the era of AI chip export controls, where the CEO of Nvidia is a central figure in the US-China tech rivalry. The reporting and the denial conflict, so more facts still need to come out.
What do you think? Let me know in the comments.
