Nick Fuentes has shared his thoughts on the ongoing Jensen Huang controversy. He questioned why there is no outrage against people who are involved with Israel, as compared to those involving China.

Jensen Huang resigned from his position as Nvidia CEO on Thursday, November 12. He had revealed on November 8 that he had an extramarital affair. Some reports claim that the woman he had an affair with, i.e., Alice Huang, is a Chinese spy, and investigations are ongoing.

Amidst the controversy, far-right podcaster Nick Fuentes questioned the outrage, saying on his show:

"So if we recognise that the leader of Nvidia should not be married to a Chinese spy, or, I guess you could say, sleeping with one, then why is it okay that some of the most powerful venture capitalists in America are married to Israelis?"

He said that "everybody is on the same page" when it comes to speaking up against alleged Chinese espionage. However, he said that there is a lack of a similar reaction against Israel and added:

"And yet, when it concerns the other tech defence, firms, or companies, or investors, we totally overlook the fact that they're all deeply involved with Israel."

Fuentes further named the likes of Joe Lonsdale, Shaun Maguire, and Alex Karp as examples of people who have links to or have supported Israel. He added:

"I think we actually need to be more wary of Israel, even than of China, because at least with China, we know it's a problem, and everybody agrees."

The political commentator also criticized "Section 219 in the NDAA that says that we're gonna jointly develop technology with Israel".

Jensen Huang reportedly had an extramarital affair with Alice Huang. Nvidia and the federal authorities are investigating the nature of that relationship and allegations of Alice being a Chinese spy.

Amidst this, the New York Times reported that Huang was also romantically involved with Nvidia's vice president of healthcare, Kimberly Powell. On November 12, Reuters reported that the 63-year-old had another intimate relationship with another Nvidia employee.

Amidst this, Nvidia released a statement on Thursday regarding a "CEO Transition", writing:

"NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) Board of Directors announced today that Jensen Huang has resigned as President, Chief Executive Officer, and a member of the Board, effective immediately."
"Colette Kress, current Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of NVIDIA, has agreed to serve as Interim Chief Executive Officer. Kress will continue to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer while serving as Interim Chief Executive Officer until a permanent successor has been named. The Board is initiating a search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer and will consider internal and external candidates," it added.

The statement further called Jensen Huang's contributions "profound" and thanked him for "his immeasurable contributions to the company and the industry." Huang co-founded Nvidia in 1993, and it has become one of the biggest companies in the world. However, it has lost billions in stock market value since the news of his affair emerged.
