White House Discusses Removing Commerce Secretary Lutnick Amid Nvidia CEO Huang Controversy

According to Reuters on Thursday (November 12), White House officials are discussing whether to replace Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick following recent controversies involving Nvidia's former CEO Jensen Huang. The report, citing two sources, noted no final decision has been made and the White House has not yet commented.

Lutnick has faced growing congressional criticism over the Commerce Department's failure to add dozens of Chinese companies to key trade blacklists and its oversight of Nvidia's chip exports to China. These concerns intensified after Huang announced his resignation on Thursday, following reports of an extramarital relationship with Alice Huang, who U.S. authorities suspect may be conducting espionage for China.
