Howard Lutnick has some explaining to do. Back in October 2025, Senator Tom Cotton sent Lutnick a formal letter warning him about Megaspeed, the Singapore-based company suspected of helping divert billions of dollars in Nvidia AI chips to China. Cotton raised serious national-security concerns and demanded an investigation. Lutnick was Commerce Secretary. He was being told directly. And this wasn’t the only warning. Nvidia’s own general counsel had contacted Lutnick’s undersecretary, Jeffrey Kessler, about the investigation in August 2025. Meanwhile, Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s CEO, had been invited by Lutnick to meet Trump at Mar-a-Lago in April 2025. Jensen was having an affair with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive whom U.S. intelligence reportedly suspected of working for China. By October 2025, Trump had reportedly been briefed on the intelligence concerns involving Alice and Jensen. Lutnick later received a classified warning about their relationship in May 2026. Yet Lutnick’s Commerce Department continued to face questions about why Megaspeed wasn’t put on the Entity List. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reportedly confronted him over the failure to act. Commerce disputes that account. So what did Lutnick know, when did he know it, and why did his department fail to act on repeated warnings about a company at the center of a major national-security investigation? Tom Cotton put him on notice. Congress needs to find out what happened next. This is about national security, billions in American technology, and the people responsible for protecting it.
