Perhaps they reached a conclusion that congress would inevitably discover this once real oversight happens, so they decided better to get it out now before Democrats are actually in control? It makes quite a lot of sense to do it now from that perspective.

I figured there will be quite a lot of people taking actions like this ... but nVidia was a surprise for sure.

Right exactly. Two months is a long time for this to blow over. It will be far outside the news cycle before anyone is called up to Congress. This is the safest time there will ever be to rip the band-aid off.

I think it’s factions within the GOP. Pro NatSec people wanted to get it out for a long time. Trump blocked. They agreed to keep a lid on it for the midterm to not embarrass Trump and thus hurt their side. Now they’re free to speak.
