In the wake of the newly released Epstein files last week, President Donald Trump ordered an investigation into Democrats mentioned in the files -- including LinkedIn co-founder and major Democrat donor Reid Hoffman.
On Tuesday, when pressed by ABC News' Mary Bruce, Trump lashed out about the files, saying Democrats should face scrutiny. Specifically, he called out Hoffman by name, saying, "Hoffman, in my opinion, should be under investigation."
"He's a sleazebag," Trump added.
Hoffman's ties to Epstein have previously been reported -- including a trip he took to Epstein's island. Hoffman has said he regretted the relationship, which he said surrounded fundraising for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
No victim of Epstein’s sexual exploitation has made any public allegation of wrongdoing by Hoffman.
In 2019, Hoffman told AXIOS, "My few interactions with Jeffrey Epstein came at the request of [then-MIT Media Lab Director] Joi Ito, for the purposes of fundraising for the MIT Media Lab. Prior to these interactions, I was told by Joi that Epstein had cleared the MIT vetting process, which was the basis for my participation. My last interaction with Epstein was in 2015. Still, by agreeing to participate in any fundraising activity where Epstein was present, I helped to repair his reputation and perpetuate injustice. For this, I am deeply regretful."

Hoffman was the criminal behind the E. Jean Carrol scam as well. He funded her nonsense.
and Nikki Haley also ...
Reid is also a devotee of the nazi collaborator Schwartz Gyorgy.
Even though he knew she was lying.
Here we go. President Trump was right. No amount of information is going to please the haters. They will turn everything around and make it about Trump. “Trump ordered this” and “Trump said that” and certain FReepers will “Trump should’ve done this a long time ago” and “Trump should’ve done that a long time ago.” They don’t know how sick their hatred has made them.
Yup.
And financed Nikki Haley too.
I hope the Democrats are served consequences for their false accusations against Trump. Investigate them all!
We all avoid LinkedIn. It has become an uber leftists platform pushing politics more than professional career development. Every day we were flooded with blonde hair 20 something leftist women’s video clips proclaiming the evil of anyone who didn’t think their way. Constantly harassed by Indian recruiters trying to steal our resumes to get Indian H1B visa scammers jobs instead of Americans. Plus, they actively shadowban posts that aren’t leftists, basically killing anyone who is center or right from reaching an audience of more than 100 people.
Mr. President and Conservatives in Congress: LinkedIn is in violation of RICO and should be investigated immediately by the Department of Justice.
“No victim of Epstein’s sexual exploitation has made any public allegation of wrongdoing by Hoffman.” The same is true of Trump, but ABC News only includes this disclaimer when writing about Democrats.
I didn’t think we had a complete list of the abusers. Have they all been named?
