The list of early donors to Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election campaign is turning up some interesting names. One name is that of LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman. He gave $699,600 to a joint fundraising committee authorized by the Biden campaign.

Hoffman is interesting because of some baggage attached to his name. Hoffman was recently discovered to have traveled to Little St. James, Epstein’s private Caribbean island on at least one occasion in 2014. He made the political contribution to the Biden Victory Fund on April 26.That is the campaign’s joint fundraising vehicle. Add to this that the donation was made exactly one week before the Wall Street Journal reported that Hoffman visited Epstein’s pedo island and we have some interesting timing there.

Hoffman and Epstein were planning to return to the island in November 2014, and then travel to Boston, the report said. It’s unclear what the intent was for those planned trips, but the report also revealed Hoffman was planning to stay at Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse in December 2014. Now Hoffman tells people that his association with Epstein was a mistake. Ya think?

Hoffman made headlines last month after Biden attended a fundraiser he hosted on behalf of the super PAC at the private residence of Shannon Hunt-Scott and Kevin Scott in Los Gatos, California.

Hoffman told The Journal in May it “gnaws at” him that his association with Epstein “helped his reputation, and thus delayed justice for his survivors.”

“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,” Hoffman said in 2019. “For this, I am deeply regretful.”

The 2015 interaction was when he invited Epstein to a Silicon Valley dinner with tech industry leaders.

Biden has benefited from Hoffman’s lavish spending. He donated $1.5M to a super PAC that supported Biden in the 2020 election. He donated the maximum individual dollar amount to Biden’s campaign. Hoffman gained access with his contributions.

Such spending can come with certain perks – such as access. According to White House visitor logs, Hoffman visited the White House five times last year. One of the visits appears to have been for the state dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron. The other four trips were for meetings with Madeline Strasser, who at the time advised then-White House chief of staff Ron Klain; Kimberly Lang, who at the time was the executive assistant to Biden’s national security adviser; and Jordan Finkelstein, a special assistant to Biden and chief of staff to the president’s senior adviser.

The list of early donors shows the influence of Hollywood mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg. The desperate Biden campaign called in Katzenberg, a big dollar Democrat donor, for advice. You may have noticed that Old Yeller is making jokes about his age in most of his campaign stops these days and that is thanks to Katzenberg. Katzenberg recommended that Biden embrace his age and use it as an asset, not a liability. Katzenberg referenced other 80-year-olds like Harrison Ford and Mick Jagger, two men who are that age and still vital human beings. That is laughable, of course, because who in their right mind would compare either Ford or Jagger to Joe Biden and think they are all on equal footing in the aging process? C’mon, man. That makes Biden look worse, not better, but here we are. Biden doesn’t have many options so he is going along with acting like he knows he’s old as dirt and unable to do the job he seeks to keep. Unlike Ford and Jagger, Biden is also physically weak as well as his obvious mental decline.

In 2020, Hollywood elites turned out to campaign and support Joe Biden. So, it’s no surprise that a billionaire political activist like Katzenberg is back again to work his magic to make Biden appealing as a candidate. That is no small assignment.

These early donors are the ones giving six-figure donations. Big bucks are coming in from the entertainment industry, as well as the tech and media industries.

Among donors in entertainment, Jeffrey Katzenberg and his wife Marilyn Katzenberg each gave the highest amount, $889,600. Katzenberg serves as a co-chair of Biden’s campaign.

Among the large donors to the Biden Victory Fund, the joint committee of the Biden campaign, the DNC and state parties, were Seth MacFarlane, who gave $100,000; Altman, who have $200,000; music composer Michael Skloff, who gave $100,000; Hastings, who gave $100,000; and producer Marcy Carsey, who gave $100,000, Broadway producer Edward Snowdon, who gave $125,000; producer Sybil Robson Orr, who gave $100,000 and philanthropist Jacki Cisneros, who gave $100,000. The information was disclosed in quarterly Federal Election Commission records filed on Tuesday.

The list of donors also include actors such as Lin-Manuel Miranda, who gave $20,000, and other contributions came from Allison Janney, Rosario Dawson and Wendell Pierce.

Five-figure contributions came from businessman and producer Eugene William Stetson, producer Ronnie Planalp, Miranda, EDEN Productions’ Richard Plepler, and Centerview Partners’ senior adviser Charles “Skip” Paul and co-founder Blair Effron. Other donors include producer Bruce Cohen, director Dean Devlin, producer Daryl Roth and actress and activist Heather Thomas.

The list of donors also includes a number of fashion designers Michael Kors and Tory Burch, who each gave $50,000, as well as Vera Wang, who gave $10,000. Also contributing was Anna Wintour, who gave $10,000.

We know that Biden is all about money and access for that money, as we see in the congressional investigations into Biden, Inc. family business dealings. For example, Sam Altman appeared at a White House event in May and he has testified before Congress about OpenAI’s ChatGPT. And, Biden has called on the writers and actors who are taking part in the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes to get fair pay and benefits. It’s all so cozy. And, icky, too.
