ChatGPT: Reid Hoffman is a prominent American entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and author, best known as the co-founder of LinkedIn, the professional networking platform launched in 2003 and later acquired by Microsoft in 2016. Born in 1967, Hoffman studied at Stanford University and earned a master’s in philosophy from Oxford. He was an early member of the PayPal executive team, often referred to as part of the "PayPal Mafia," and played a critical role in its growth. After LinkedIn, Hoffman joined venture capital firm Greylock Partners, where he has invested in numerous successful tech companies, including Airbnb, Facebook, and Dropbox. Beyond business, Hoffman is a vocal advocate for ethical technology and responsible AI development. He co-hosts the podcast Masters of Scale, exploring startup strategies and leadership. Also a prolific author, he has co-written several books on entrepreneurship and innovation, including The Startup of You and Blitzscaling. His influence extends across business, technology, and social impact.


A billionaire who is/was part of the Paypal mafia with Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. He then founded LinkedIn which was later acquired by Microsoft.

I learned of Reid Hoffman first when he was mentioned by Elon in his interview with Tucker Carlson late in 2024. I think after leaving Paypal, he and Elon may have had a falling out (?). In the interview, Elon identified him as part of the 100 person elite cabal (including Bill Gates and George Soros) who are the "puppet masters" behind the Democratic party. Elon was widely celebrated by the left and overnight became a persona non-grata when he started questioning their ideals, then became public enemy number one when he aligned himself with Trump.

Elon didn't mince his words in identifying Reid as part of the cabal who were known to be cozy with Jeffrey Epstein. According to Musk, Hoffman and other billionaires seemed nervous with the release of the Epstein files if Trump was to be elected as POTUS.


I saw this on my feed because I have watched many vids of this channel. Young dude randomly walks up to rich people and gains advice on business and financial literacy, but recently he kind of sold out because a lot of famous people now use his channel for PR purposes. Reid made a very controlled appearance. He has been all over youtube as of late. It's also strangely coincidental to me that Bill Gates made the recent announcement of him giving away most of his fortune before he dies. These seem to be PR campaigns done by Hoffman and Gate's people to endear them to the public, so if/when the Epstein files get released, public sympathy is in their favor.

 
Just another gnostic transhumanist. Tech is lousey with em.
 
Ididnt knew the dude. But i dont think were gonna ever seen the Epstein list.

He is definitely not well known until recently and that was by design. He kept himself hidden for decades, and recently became internet famous, sorta.
 

LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman's ties to Jeffrey Epstein face Trump-ordered investigation​

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."


 
This jagoff's pretending he's all for the release of the Epstein files after he has again been tied to the issue because of the recent events. Gee, maybe if he didn't help Epstein repair his image, all files would've been released by now. This is happening on Elon's platform no less. I wonder if he and Bill Gates managed to pay someone to scrub their names off the files.

 
Uh, It makes it significantly harder to push for the verifiable lie it’s was ever a partisian issue involving only one political party. Epstein had ties to gun runners from the Iran contra affair. This was decades old by the time 2016 election happened.
The only credible person not full of shit about all this stuff is George Carlin.

Because no one knew Epstein had seed underage girls in 2015?
