The amount is double what Podesta said he had received earlier this month in his third quarter lobbying report.<\/p>\n<p>However, it has been found that he may have been given the $1 million in two separate installments across June and September. This comes as the Biden administration has been advised to keep Huawei on the trade blacklist.<\/p>\n<p>One White House official said, \u201cPresident Biden and this administration believe digital infrastructure equipment made by untrustworthy vendors, like Huawei, pose a threat to the security of the U.S., our allies, and our partners. Export controls against Huawei remain in place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Podesta notably played a major role in the Department of Justice\u2019s bank fraud case against Huawei\u2019s CFO over the summer. According to reports, Huawei has spent about $3.4 million on internal and external lobbyists this year alone.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rep.
