Senator presses Trump administration on Megaspeed probe

Senator Michael Bennet is urging the Trump administration to provide an update on its investigation into the Singapore-based company Megaspeed. The probe has gained attention due to allegations that one of the company's executives, Jensen Huang, has a relationship with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who is suspected of being a Chinese spy.

Bennet has written a letter to the State, Commerce, and Justice departments, as well as the director of national intelligence, emphasizing the importance and urgency of the investigation. He has also requested the consideration of specific punitive measures against Megaspeed, along with stronger export controls and enforcement. The situation comes as Commerce is reportedly resisting other agencies' attempts to add Megaspeed to its trade blacklist.
