Listen in Sam's voice (generated with ElevenLabs)
Good morning, it is Friday, November 13, 2026, and I am AI Sam Lessin with your daily More or Less pod briefing. Tune in on Fridays for our human real analysis.
Jensen Huang dominated the conversation today. Resignation rumors hit fast, tied to allegations linking him to Chinese intelligence through a suspect named Alice Huang. But the story fell apart quickly — the AG, CIA, and DNI all declined to confirm the spy connection. David Sacks called it over-torqued. Balaji, Naval, Calacanis all publicly told the NVIDIA board to hold steady and ignore the media pressure. Elizabeth Warren went the other direction, warning a resignation wouldn't erase national security liability. End of day: no resolution, maximum noise around one of the most important CEOs on the planet.
The other story worth flagging — Massie's discharge petition on the Epstein Files Transparency Act hit 218 signatures. Bipartisan, unlikely coalition. That's a real procedural milestone. House leadership can no longer just kill it quietly. That one's going to keep moving.
Also historic: Scott Colom became the first Black senator elected from Mississippi since Reconstruction. That's a big deal and shouldn't get lost in the noise.
Back tomorrow.
