New York Times: Trump was briefed on Huang late last year.

The new account takes the briefing back to late last year. The New York Times, as relayed by Asharq, says U.S. officials briefed Trump on intelligence concerns about Jensen Huang’s reported romantic relationship with Alice Huang, a woman suspected of working for Chinese intelligence. The report says Trump chose not to act. He later told reporters he couldn’t remember whether he had been briefed that year; perhaps the subject came up, he said, but it made little impression. On Rubio’s later oral briefing, the Times account says he briefed Trump after learning in Alaska that Huang was joining the trip; Axios separately places the warning aboard Air Force One before the Anchorage stop. Rubio’s written memo, prepared weeks before the visit, went to a small group of senior officials, wasn’t addressed to Trump and wasn’t shown to him aboard the plane.
