House Majority PAC uses Epstein files in ads targeting Republicans
House Majority PAC is running ads about Jeffrey Epstein against Republican candidates in several US congressional races ahead of Election Day.
The ads accuse Republicans of failing to support the release of records about Epstein, a convicted sex offender who was charged with sex trafficking.
Billionaire Reid Hoffman was among the PAC’s largest donors, according to federal filings, but the filings do not show that his money paid for any particular ad.
Hoffman, LinkedIn’s co-founder, has faced scrutiny over his past ties to Epstein, including correspondence and visits.
The ads focus on a transparency law that requires the Justice Department to release Epstein-related records while protecting victims’ identities; the law passed in November 2025.
In Alaska, one ad criticized Representative Nick Begich for initially opposing a procedural motion on the bill, though he later voted for it.
The PAC has spent millions on ads across battleground districts, and the spending is continuing as the election approaches.

What people are saying
How did Jeffrey Epstein hide it? He was protected by the elites — elites like Nick Begich. Begich voted against releasing the Epstein Files, trying to hide the truth. Alaskans need someone who cares more about bringing down costs than protecting a rapist.
Democrats have no problem with money in politics so long as it benefits their own campaign, even if it comes from certified perverts like Reid Hoffman who maintained a relationship with Epstein after his conviction.
Democrats have no morals when power and money are on the line, and they’ll take both from anyone willing to write a check.
