Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has repeatedly stalled Trump’s crackdowns on AI firms diverting Nvidia chips to China. Most recently, Lutnick putatively refused, against the President’s orders, to add Megaspeed to a federal export blacklist for over 13 months. As of today, Megaspeed has still not been added to the blacklist. Under Lutnick, the Commerce Department went its single longest stretch of time ever without putting a single company on its federal trade blacklist, from October 2025 to November 2026. Megaspeed is the Sinagore-based Chinese front-company currently in the news because Alice Huang, the alleged Chinese spy who seduced Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, bought and rebranded it in March 2023 before purchasing $4.8 billion in Nvidia chips between June 2024 and February 2026. Treasury Secretary Bessent most recently confronted Lutnick over his confounding actions during a meeting with Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Jamieson Greer in the Situation Room. Lutnick has been at the epicenter of many of the corruption scandals consistently plaguing the administration, from his sons, who inherited Cantor Fitzgerald, nakedly profiteering off of tariff refunds, to his own business involvement with Jeffrey Epstein, which he initially lied about.

Thomas Snow, husband of the Deputy Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office (PPO) Morgan DeWitt-Snow, is allegedly engaged in a homosexual affair with Austin Sprenger, the White House Liaison for the State Department, according to multiple administration sources. PPO Deputy Director Morgan DeWitt-Snow is a Susie Wiles loyalist and is in charge of staffing the Trump administration. Dewitt-Snow is also a former employee of Ballard Partners and is a close friend of both Katie and Caroline Wiles. Austin Sprenger, the State Department White House Liaison, is responsible for hiring all State Department appointees. Austin reports directly to Morgan and is her subordinate. Multiple sources allege that Morgan DeWitt-Snow is in a “lavender marriage with her husband.” If substantiated in an official investigation, Austin Sprenger’s alleged homosexual relationship with his superior’s husband could raise serious ethical questions and potentially violate State Department guidelines and policies. This is one part in our reporting, with other information fully exposing the web of personnel entanglements that involve and surround Morgan DeWitt, whom senior officials suggest is really running the PPO department. “Personnel is policy,” and it is said that Morgan DeWitt has de facto control over personnel and strong relationships with K-street lobbyists, like the previously mentioned Katie Wiles.
