Clearly there was fraud in this election, as well as Texas and several other states. The question is will we actually get some accountability and flip the seats? After the theft of 2020 and 2022, I’m not holding my breath, but I am praying. The most frustrating part is knowing we could have prevented it had pathetic Thune passed the Save Act!

[Rep. Keith Self @RepKeithSelf]

Playing it safe got us nowhere. Time to go big in the last 60 days.

@freedomcaucus has the plan: codify Trump’s border policies, no amnesty, no poison-pill omnibus, strip Democrats of leverage, and pass the SAVE America Act.

Bring in the cots—we have a country to save.

NYT reporting another "no true bill" (decline to indict) from a DC grand jury on Friday. This case related to allegations an individual voted twice in the 2024 election.

The DC grand jury returned a no true bill in a similar election related case last week.

This is on top of the DC grand jury refusing to indict Cassidy Hutchinson on false statement charges last month--adding to a long list of indictments the DC grand jury has refused to sign.

NYT reports this is becoming so common in DC that Chief Judge Jeb Boasberg is keeping a list of no true bills.

This level of jury nullification in DC--I have already covered how activist groups in the nation's capital held seminars advising potential jurors how to refuse indictments, convictions sought by the Trump DOJ--is unprecedented.

Yet Republicans in Congress did nothing about it.

The story keeps getting crazier. To recap everything that has been reported so far:

- The US intelligence community discovered that Jensen Huang, the CEO of the largest company in the world, was sleeping with Alice Huang, a Chinese spy and an executive at Megaspeed. (FT)
- Multiple independent investigations have concluded that Megaspeed is likely a Chinese cutout, which helps Chinese companies access AI chips or circumvent export controls. (NYT and Bloomberg)
- The US intelligence community also concluded that Alice Huang’s goal was to convince Jensen to lobby the U.S. government to loosen export controls on advanced AI chips. (NYT)
- The intelligence community relayed this information to “a small group of top US government officials” earlier this year. (FT)
- Over the last year, Jensen Huang has repeatedly lobbied the U.S. government to loosen export controls on advanced chips. @BISgov has done so, not only by permitting the export of H200 chips to China, but also not enforcing export controls that would have required a license for exports of the most advanced Blackwell chips to Megaspeed and Southeast Asia.
- Although @CommerceGov leadership was presumably briefed on this information by the U.S. intelligence community, @BISgov has taken no actions to tighten controls on Megaspeed or Southeast Asia.
- Megaspeed remains a preferred cloud partner of Nvidia, and continues to receive Nvidia Blackwell chips despite employing a Chinese spy who reportedly is romantically engaged with the CEO of Nvidia.
- Tens of billions of dollars worth of AI chips have been exported to Southeast Asia this year alone, and Malaysia and Singapore are now two of the four largest importers of AI chips in the world.

What is going on here??? We need answers. The question of who gets the most advanced AI chips in the world is literally the defining strategic question of our time. And not only does it seem like the MSS may be directly influencing the debate on export controls in the United States, but also @CommerceGov is refusing to listen to the warnings of the IC on this issue. What is a POSSIBLE good explanation for why Megaspeed is still receiving chips? Why is there not a license requirement for AI chip shipments to all of Southeast Asia? This is beyond strange at this point.

The fallout from this story will be massive. Obviously, the motivations underpinning Nvidia’s policy views opposing export controls must now all be questioned. But also, how did @BISgov sit on this information and has still taken no actions? We need answers.
