Billionaire Who Donated $250,000 to Nikki Haley Visited Epstein Island
Daily Fetched ^ | January 8, 2024 | Jason Walsh

Billionaire LinkedIn co-founder and major Democrat donor Reid Hoffman, who recently donated $250,000 to Nikki Haley in a strategic attempt to stop Donald Trump from winning the GOP nomination, visited Epstein Island.

Hoffman donated to Haley’s campaign after a chief executive for JPMorgan Chase, Jamie Dimon, called on Democrat donors to donate to Haley through the SFA Fund Inc. super PAC.

Last year, Hoffman admitted he had visited Epstein’s island, Little St. James, telling the Wall Street Journal, “It gnaws me that, by lending my association, I helped his reputation, and thus delayed justice for his survivors.”

According to then-MIT Media Lab director Joi Ito, Hoffman “attended a few fundraising events at [his] request, including one trip to Little St. James, after [he] confirmed to Reid that Mr. Epstein had been an approved donor target for MIT in accordance with university rules and regulations.”

The Wall Street Journal reported that Hoffman made plans to stay overnight at Epstein’s townhouse in Manhattan, New York, the same year, where he joined globalists like Bill Gates for a “breakfast party.”

In 2015, Hoffman joined other Silicon Valley leaders to meet with Epstein again at his home in Palo Alto.

The New York Times reported that Hoffman helped fund a civil lawsuit against Trump brought by E. Jean Carroll, who accused the former president of raping her.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump called the case a “con job” and said he had “absolutely no idea who this woman is,” adding it was “a continuation of the greatest witch hunt of all time.”

Hoffman also “contributed more than $600,000 to the legal defense fund of Bean LLC — otherwise known as Fusion GPS, the company responsible for the creation of the Steele Dossier,” The National Pulse noted.

Haley said she was willing to accept donations from “Anybody that wants to come to support the cause,” telling Fox News, “Whether they’re Republican, independent or Democrat, we’re going to take them.”

Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) said on X that “Haley should return that money” after pointing out that Hoffman had visited Epstein’s private island.

The news comes in the wake of the release of unsealed documents regarding Jeffrey Epstein and his associates

The unsealed trove of the Jeffery Epstein files also confirmed that Trump did not visit Epstein’s home or island, or have any contact with underage girls,

On page 112 of document 1320-12 of the files, witness Johanna Sjoberg was asked if Trump had ever engaged “in sexual contact” with her.

“No,” Sjoberg replied.

Nikki’s thinking “Oh, damn! Now I’ll have to return all that money...Or at least say that ‘I intend to’.”

The old guilt by association cuts both ways:

“I’ve known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy,” Trump booms from a speakerphone. “He’s a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it — Jeffrey enjoys his social life.” New York Magazine, October 28, 2002.

Has been 8 years of dozens of anti Trump accusations that have always been proved false.

The blue dress accusation against Clinton were proved true after a few weeks.

Why would the NY Post headline and you leave out the recantation part?

It ‘s a real head scratcher.

Yet the same woman recanted the very same day..so honestly even though I despise Bill Clinton, I dont take the word seriously from someone who immediately recanted regardless of who they accuse

I left it out because I didn’t know about it. Not sure why the NYPost left it out. Maybe they know she recanted because of a threat? I do not know.

It’s a real baffler!

It was in the NY Post story.

It is sooooooo confusing!

Maybe she recanted because lacking any corroboration, other’s recounting events implies she is a liar.

It’s like rocket science difficulty in the discernment.

Billionaire. $250k given. That would be one quarter of one % of his total assets if they stopped at one billion. If my math’s right it’s chump change/drop in the bucket territory. Still you don’t get to be a billionaire by throwing good money after bad. You get it by being conservative with your investments and taking the chances you can really believe in. Once you get to your first billion you’re still tight with your money. You just advocate using the money of other people.
