Nvidia Corp.’s Jensen Huang spent months telling everyone what a grave mistake the US was making restricting shipments of artificial intelligence processors to China — with little sign that his argument was swaying anyone.
Then, very suddenly, that all changed.

Late on Monday, the chipmaker said it received assurances that the US government would allow it to export some chips to the Asian nation. Advanced Micro Devices Inc., Nvidia’s chief rival, quickly followed with a similar announcement. These export license approvals could generate billions of dollars in total revenue for the companies this year — and they mark a dramatic reversal after the Trump administration said the issue wasn’t even up for debate.

Huang has taken almost every opportunity available to him — from the stage of tech events to Washington visits — to argue that a crackdown on China is counterproductive. During his appearances, he navigated a fine line between praising Trump policies aimed at bringing back chip manufacturing to the US and demanding more freedom to do business in China.
Just last week, Huang met with President Donald Trump at the White House.

A divided US Supreme Court let President Donald Trump resume dismantling the Department of Education, lifting a lower court order that required the reinstatement of as many as 1,400 workers.

Granting an emergency request from the administration, the justices put on hold a federal district court ruling that said the Trump purge would leave the department unable to perform duties required under US law. The Supreme Court order will apply while the case continues on appeal.
