Trump Says Dem Mega Donor Reid Hoffman Should be Investigated… As We’ve Said for YEARS.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday called on LinkedIn co-founder and billionaire Democrat donor Reid Hoffman to be investigated over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and travels to the latter’s Little Saint James island—dubbed “Pedo Island.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Reid Hoffman, President Donald J. Trump, and The National Pulse.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Tuesday, November 18, 2025, at the White House in Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “That creep fund guy was with him all the time. What’s his name? Reid Hoffman. I don’t know Reid Hoffman, but I know he spends a lot of money on the radical left. Reid Hoffman, in my opinion, should be under investigation.” — Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The National Pulse has long documented Hoffman’s ties to Epstein and called for the billionaire’s investigation by federal prosecutors.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump on Tuesday called on LinkedIn co-founder and billionaire Democrat donor Reid Hoffman to be investigated over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and travels to the latter’s Little Saint James island—dubbed “Pedo Island.” The President’s remarks came during a White House Oval Office event with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, also known as MBS. Notably, Hoffman was a key donor and advisor to Kamala Harris’s failed presidential campaign.

Responding to a press question about deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and a House vote ordering the release of the federal government’s Epstein Files, Trump made reference to Hoffman—at first calling him a “creep fund guy.” The National Pulse has long pushed for a federal investigation into Hoffman and his ties to Epstein, along with his financial network benefiting Democratic Party candidates for years.

“That creep fund guy was with him all the time. What’s his name? Reid Hoffman. I don’t know Reid Hoffman, but I know he spends a lot of money on the radical left. Reid Hoffman, in my opinion, should be under investigation,” President Trump said. “He’s a sleaze bag, and those are the people, but they don’t get any press, they don’t get any news, and you’re not after the radical left because you’re a radical left network,” he added, before telling the questioner to “go back and learn how to be a reporter.”


Hoffman, who in recent years has become a sort of “mini” George Soros for the Democrats, was a key financial backer of fabulist E. Jean Carroll’s defamation lawsuits against President Trump. Additionally, Hoffman crossed party lines to back former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley in the 2024 Republican presidential primary, in the hope that she could defeat or at least damage Trump. Hoffman has also funded numerous lawfare efforts against right-leaning entities, including underwriting Smartmatic’s defamation lawsuits against Fox News and Newsmax.

In addition to his lawfare and election efforts, Hoffman has also been exposed as one of the key donors behind the far-left website and social media influencer group, MeidasTouch Network. The National Pulse previously reported on how MeidasTouch—founded by the three Meiselas brothers, Ben, Brett, and Jordy—helped popularize the “bloodbath hoax” against President Trump in 2024.

Oxford Union Brands Israel Bigger Threat Than Iran.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Oxford Union, Britain’s most prestigious debating society, voted that Israel is a greater threat to regional security in the Middle East than Iran.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Former Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh, Executive Director of UN Watch Hillel Neuer, and the Oxford Union.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The vote took place on November 13.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Israel acts above the law and does not respect UN resolutions.” – Mohammad Shtayyeh.

🎯IMPACT: The vote comes amid rising levels of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic sentiment in Britain, linked in part to large-scale Islamic immigration.

IN FULL

The Oxford Union, Britain‘s most prestigious debating society, has voted by a wide margin to endorse a motion that Israel represents a greater threat to regional stability than Iran. The debate featured former Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh, who argued in favor of the motion and described Israel as “an expansionist colonial state that has been established by colonial powers.” He called it a “pariah state” that “should be stopped.”

Shtayyeh told the society that “Israel acts above the law and does not respect UN resolutions,” accusing it of operating “a colonial regime… based on apartheid against the Palestinian people.” He cited what he called “brutal occupation, crimes and genocide,” and said Israel was “dragging the region into repeated conflicts… causing misery, genocide.” He also claimed that some Israeli lawmakers envision borders stretching “from the Nile to the Euphrates,” concluding: “We all should say that Israel is the biggest cause of destabilisation in the region.”

Opposing the motion, Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, said the proposition amounted to an “inversion of reality.” He argued that “regional stability is measured by who starts wars, not by who stops them,” noting that Iran, not Israel, arms militant proxies in several Arab countries.

Neuer insisted that “Arab states quietly depend on Israel for their own survival,” pointing to Iran’s recent direct attack on Israel with “170 drones, 30 cruise missiles and more than 120 ballistic missiles.” He highlighted that Sunni Arab states assisted in intercepting the projectiles, saying this represented a real-world verdict on the question of regional stability: “You don’t intercept missiles heading towards a threat to regional stability, you intercept missiles from one.”

Sources close to the event confirmed that the motion passed decisively, continuing a trend of contentious Israel-related votes at the institution. Last year, members backed the claim that “Israel is an apartheid state responsible for genocide” by 278 votes to 59.

The vote comes during a period of turbulence for the Oxford Union, a prestigious debating society founded in 1823 and known for hosting global political figures. In recent months, the group’s president-elect, George Abaraonye, was ousted after messages surfaced in which he appeared to celebrate the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk, whom he had previously debated.

In the leaked messages, Abaraonye allegedly wrote, “Charlie Kirk got shot, let’s f**king go,” and “Charlie Kirk got shot loool.” He was removed following a vote of no confidence.

A rise in anti-Semitic incidents has also strained the broader political climate in Britain. In early October, police identified the suspect in a deadly Yom Kippur synagogue attack in Greater Manchester as Jihad al-Shamie, a Syrian immigrant granted British citizenship. The attack left two people dead and several others injured.

Migrant Restaurant Owner Charged in Terror Plot To Kill Jews.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A restaurant owner in England is accused of planning a gun attack targeting Jews.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Walid Saadaoui, a 38-year-old Tunisian national, co-defendant Amar Hussain, 52, and Saadaoui’s brother, Bilel Saadaoui, 36.

📍WHEN & WHERE: An attack was allegedly plotted between December 2023 and May 2024. Saadaoui owned a restaurant in Great Yarmouth before moving to Wigan.

🎯IMPACT: Police intervention reportedly prevented a potential mass casualty event. All defendants are denying the charges.

IN FULL

A Tunisian immigrant restaurant owner, Walid Saadaoui, is on trial at Preston Crown Court in England, accused of plotting a mass shooting targeting Jews. Prosecutors claim he intended to cause “untold harm.” Saadaoui, who denies preparing acts of terrorism, told jurors he arrived in the United Kingdom in 2012, worked in Clacton-on-Sea, and later bought the Albatross restaurant in Great Yarmouth in 2018. “I wanted to progress in life. I wanted to be my own boss,” he said, describing the restaurant as a thriving venue that hosted weddings and birthday parties.

Prosecutors allege that Saadaoui, his brother Bilel, and co-defendant Amar Hussain unknowingly disclosed details of their planned attack to an undercover officer. Saadaoui and Hussain both deny preparing acts of terrorism, while Bilel is accused of failing to disclose information about the alleged plot. Saadaoui is scheduled to give further evidence later this week.

The trial unfolds amid intensifying concerns about the safety and security of Jews in Britain. Jewish organisations have reported rising levels of anti-Semitic incidents in recent years, with community surveys showing that a growing number of British Jews feel less safe in public spaces. Tensions have been especially high following the fatal attack on the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation synagogue in Manchester, carried out by a Syrian migrant, Jihad al-Shamie, during Yom Kippur. Two worshippers were killed in that attack. Authorities later confirmed that al-Shamie had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State. It also emerged that al-Shamie had been on bail in a rape investigation at the time of the attack, raising further questions about risk assessment and monitoring.

Concerns have been further heightened by recent policing decisions, including restrictions placed on Israeli Jewish soccer fans attending certain matches in areas with large numbers of Muslims due to security fears. National and local officials have warned that no British city should become a “no-go area” for Jews.

Border Patrol Confirms Mexican Cartels on the Run Following Trump’s Military Deployment.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Major cartel-controlled smuggling corridors have been disrupted or shut down following a military-reinforcement directive along the U.S. southern border.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: U.S. Customs and Border Protection, National Guard units, and President Donald J. Trump.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Over the past six weeks in key sectors of Texas, Arizona, and California.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The cartels are on their heels, and they don’t know how to adapt to this level of pressure.” – Senior CBP official

🎯IMPACT: Cartel mobility has been severely reduced, with significant drops in smuggling activity and narcotics trafficking.

IN FULL

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) says President Donald J. Trump‘s deployment of U.S military assets to assist efforts to crack down on the flow of illicit drugs across the southern border is already bearing fruit. According to the agency, cartel-controlled smuggling corridors—some active for more than a decade—have been either entirely shut down or at least disrupted. The change in cartel position comes after the Trump administration launched a military reinforcement directive, known as Operation Sovereign Shield, six weeks ago.

Operation Sovereign Shield authorized the deployment of over 7,000 National Guard personnel, 24-hour-a-day aerial drone surveillance zones, rapid-response military patrol teams, and mobile checkpoints at known cartel transit routes. The initiative has led to a 72 percent reduction in cartel foot traffic in the Del Rio sector, a 64 percent collapse in vehicle smuggling activity around Yuma, and a 56 percent drop in narcotics seizures as cartels struggle to transport products, according to internal CBP documents.

“We’re seeing corridors that have been active since the Obama years go completely black,” said a senior CBP official. Persistent drone coverage has been instrumental, eliminating smugglers’ ability to operate under the cover of darkness or weather. National Guard units have forced traffickers into bottlenecks, disrupting long-standing routes and increasing the cost of illegal passage.

Since the operation began, six major stash houses tied to the Sinaloa and Gulf cartels have been raided, over 1,200 illegal immigrants intercepted, and cartel scout towers along the Rio Grande abandoned. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials report intercepted communications showing cartel panic, with some leaders calling the U.S. side “unworkable.”

President Trump called the results a “historic turning point” and stated, “For the first time in years, the cartels are losing—not winning. And we’re not stopping until the entire border is secure.”

Trump Rule May Limit Immigrants’ Use of Public Benefits.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) proposed a new regulation expanding the public charge policy, potentially limiting immigrants’ use of public benefits.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), migrants, and the Protecting Immigrant Families Coalition.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The proposed regulation was released this week and will be published in the Federal Register on Wednesday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Rescission would restore broader discretion to evaluate all pertinent facts and align with long-standing policy that aliens in the United States should be self-reliant and government benefits should not incentivize immigration,” the proposal states.

🎯IMPACT: The rule may discourage immigrants from accessing public benefits.

IN FULL

The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has proposed a regulation that would expand the public charge policy, potentially limiting immigrants’ access to public benefits. The suggested changes mean that programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Medicare could be considered when determining an immigrant’s eligibility for legal status, including green cards.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) unveiled the proposal, which will be published in the Federal Register on Wednesday. It seeks to rescind the Joe Biden-era public charge rule and broaden the scope of public benefits that immigration officers may evaluate, extending it to include health or social services used by applicants.

“Rescission would restore broader discretion to evaluate all pertinent facts and align with long-standing policy that aliens in the United States should be self-reliant and government benefits should not incentivize immigration,” the proposal outlines. However, immigration advocates criticized the move, with Adriana Cadenas, executive director of the Protecting Immigrant Families Coalition, complaining that it “deters lawfully present immigrants and U.S. citizens from seeking health care and help they need and qualify for under federal law.”

The regulation follows debates over immigrants’ access to social safety net programs. While immigrants without legal status are already technically barred from accessing programs like SNAP or Medicaid, Congress has recently imposed additional restrictions on legal immigrants. Some state-funded benefits may also now be considered in immigration reviews under the new rule.

During his first term, President Donald J. Trump expanded the definition of public charge, making it more difficult for immigrants to obtain permanent status if they used certain public benefits. The Biden government later reversed this policy in 2022, narrowing the scope of benefits considered. The latest proposal, however, signals a return to a broader approach.

Senate Democrat Staffer Fired for Posing as Lawyer to Free Illegal Immigrant.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A staffer in Senator Tammy Duckworth’s (D-IL) office was terminated after allegedly deceiving the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) into releasing an illegal immigrant from custody by falsely claiming to be their attorney.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Edward York, a Constituent Outreach Coordinator in Duckworth’s office, and Jose Ismael Ayuzo Sandoval, a Mexican national with a criminal record.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred on October 29, 2025, at a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in East St. Louis, Illinois, with the termination effective November 17, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Upon reviewing the matter, I can confirm that neither I nor my leadership team was aware of, authorized or directed what your letter describes as the employee’s conduct.” – Sen. Duckworth

🎯IMPACT: The incident has raised questions about internal oversight and the process of securing the release of individuals in DHS custody, as well as the continued interference and motivations of far-left Democrats.

IN FULL

A staffer in Senator Tammy Duckworth’s office (D-IL), identified as Edward York, was fired on November 17, 2025, after allegedly deceiving the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to secure the release of an illegal immigrant. According to a letter from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Acting Director Todd Lyons, York falsely claimed to be the attorney of Jose Ismael Ayuzo Sandoval, a Mexican national with a criminal record.

DHS stated that Ayuzo Sandoval had been deported four times previously and has a conviction for driving under the influence. ICE reported that York entered an ICE facility in East St. Louis, Illinois, on October 29, 2025, and presented a signed G-28 form, which authorizes legal representation, while falsely claiming to represent Sandoval as his attorney.

Lyons’s letter to Senator Duckworth detailed York’s actions, stating: “At approximately 1:29 PM, an individual identified as Edward York… entered the field office lobby, and in a discussion with a federal officer, claimed to be Mr. Ayuzo’s attorney. Mr. York demanded to speak with his ‘client.’”

On Monday, Senator Duckworth confirmed York’s termination and denied any prior knowledge or authorization of his actions. “Upon reviewing the matter, I can confirm that neither I nor my leadership team was aware of, authorized, or directed what your letter describes as the employee’s conduct,” Duckworth wrote in a letter responding to Lyons.

BREAKING: House Near-Unanimously Passes Bill Ordering Release of the Epstein Files.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The House of Representatives near-unanimously adopted a discharge petition and resolution ordering the Department of Justice to release the entirety of the Epstein Files, despite some House Republican leaders holding reservations over the lack of specific protections for victims and the lack of prohibition on the release of Child Sexual Abuse Materials (CSAM) in the legislation.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: House Republicans, House Democrats, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Representative Jimmy Gomez (D-CA), and President Donald J. Trump.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Tuesday, November 18, 2025, on Capitol Hill.

💬KEY QUOTE: “As I said on Friday night aboard Air Force One to the Fake News Media, House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown.’” — Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The legislation will now head to the Senate, where the order will likely undergo significant revisions.

IN FULL

The House of Representatives near-unanimously adopted a discharge petition and resolution ordering the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release the entirety of the Epstein Files, 427 to one, despite some House Republican leaders holding reservations over the lack of specific protections for victims and the lack of prohibition on the release of Child Sexual Abuse Materials (CSAM) in the legislation. Earlier on Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) held a press conference, urging his U.S. Senate colleagues to amend the legislation to ensure these protections are in place.

Johnson argued that House Republican attempts to amend the discharge petition to ensure the privacy rights of victims and those with no criminal ties to Epstein were rejected by Democrats. “So what am I to do as a leader in a situation like this?” Johnson posed during his morning press conference on Tuesday, ahead of the vote. He continued: “I called my counterpart in the Senate, Leader Thune, and I talked through this with him, and I shared our deep concerns. And of course they share those concerns as well.”

The legislation will now head to the Senate, where, if Johnson’s warnings are heeded, the order will undergo significant revisions. This will mean the legislation will need to be taken up again by the House once it has passed the Senate, before heading to the White House for President Donald J. Trump‘s signature.

The National Pulse reported Monday that President Trump is urging his Republican colleagues in Congress to adopt the measure. “As I said on Friday night aboard Air Force One to the Fake News Media, House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide, and it’s time to move on from this Democrat Hoax perpetrated by Radical Left Lunatics in order to deflect from the Great Success of the Republican Party, including our recent Victory on the Democrat ‘Shutdown,’” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.

He added: “The Department of Justice has already turned over tens of thousands of pages to the Public on ‘Epstein,’ are looking at various Democrat operatives (Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, Larry Summers, etc.) and their relationship to Epstein, and the House Oversight Committee can have whatever they are legally entitled to, I DON’T CARE!”

The House proceedings on Tuesday were relatively calm, other than one instance where Representative Jimmy Gomez (D-CA) had an outburst and accused Trump of being connected to the deceased pedophile on the House floor. This prompted an immediate rebuke from the chair, and Gomez was aggressively gavelled down and prevented from speaking further.

BREAKING: Court Halts Texas Redistricting Plans Over ‘Racism.’

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Federal judges have halted Texas’s redistricting plans, arguing they are racist in nature.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Three federal judges, civil rights groups, Texas Governor Gregg Abbott (R), and other Texan officials.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ruling was made on November 18.

🎯IMPACT: The ruling could counter GOP attempts to redistrict in other Republican-controlled states, benefitting Democrats in the upcoming Midterms.

IN FULL
A three-judge federal panel has barred Texas from implementing its newly approved congressional map for the 2026 midterm elections, finding supposedly compelling evidence that the redrawn districts amount to racial gerrymandering.

In their decision, the judges declared that while political motives played a role in crafting the 2025 map, “it was much more than just politics. Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map.” The court concluded that the map violates both the U.S. Constitution and the Voting Rights Act.

The lawsuit had been brought by civil rights groups representing black and Hispanic voters, who argued the mapping effort diluted minority voting power. They sought to prevent the Lone Star State from using its new map, and the judges agreed, granting their request and signaling a strong likelihood of success if the case were to continue.

If allowed to proceed, the map would have likely awarded Republicans five additional U.S. House seats by dismantling districts where Democrat-leaning minority populations currently outweigh Republican-leaning non-Hispanic whites. Specifically, the number of majority-minority districts would have dropped from 16 to 14.

The ruling is being viewed as a significant setback for President Donald J. Trump, who had urged GOP-led states to redraw maps that unfairly favor Democrats to secure more Republican seats.

‘Quiet, Piggy’ – Trump Shuts Down Heckling Reporter.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump told a reporter, “Quiet, piggy,” while she was heckling him regarding Jeffrey Epstein on Air Force One.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, a female reporter who appears to be Jennifer Jacobs, and deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Aboard Air Force One, during a press interaction on Friday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The exchange comes as scrutiny increases over Epstein’s connections and debate over releasing the “Epstein Files.”

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump, speaking to the press aboard Air Force One on Friday, responded to an off-camera female reporter who interrupted an exchange to heckle him about Jeffrey Epstein by saying, “Quiet. Quiet, piggy.” The exchange between Trump and the reporter, identified as Jennifer Jacobs, took place amid growing tensions over the impending release of the federal government’s “Epstein Files.”

Democrats recently released a series of emails in which it appears Epstein and writer and fabulist Michael Wolff were conspiring to blackmail Trump. This prompted House Republicans to release additional files, some of which showed House Democrat politician Stacey Plaskett being coached through a 2019 hearing via text message by Epstein himself.

On Monday, the Trump administration made public previously classified files about prominent American figures, adding to the ongoing debate about transparency and accountability regarding Epstein’s case. Meanwhile, the House is set to vote on Tuesday on legislation requiring the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release its files on Epstein.

This effort, which faced initial resistance from President Trump and Republican leadership, has gained significant momentum. Trump has since endorsed the bill, urging Republicans to support it, making its passage in the House highly likely. However, House Republican leadership has detailed a series of significant issues with the petition, suggesting it will likely be amended to ensure certain guards for victims, informants, and whistleblowers in the Senate.

Trump Admin Advances Plan to Dismantle Department of Education.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Department of Education is reallocating part of its work to other federal agencies.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, Education Secretary Linda McMahon, Department of Education staff.

📍WHEN & WHERE: November 18, 2025, Department of Education.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The clock is ticking…” – Linda McMahon.

🎯IMPACT: The moves pave the way for the dismantling of the Department of Education in a piecemeal fashion.

IN FULL

The Department of Education is poised to announce a significant restructuring, moving parts of its operations to other federal agencies. This decision aligns with President Donald J. Trump’s earlier executive order aimed at dismantling the department.

The announcement is expected during an all-hands meeting for department staff on Tuesday. Education Secretary Linda McMahon hinted at these changes through a social media post featuring footage of the late President Ronald Reagan and others talking about dismantling the department, accompanied by the words, “The clock is ticking…”

A congressional aide has indicated that the restructuring will affect at least five offices: the Office for Civil Rights, the Office of Indian Education, the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, the Office of Postsecondary Education, and the Office of Special Education.

The reallocation involves transferring personnel to other agencies while maintaining some oversight and leadership by the Department of Education. This strategy enables McMahon to proceed with dismantling the department incrementally, bypassing the need for congressional approval.

Despite Congress holding the ultimate authority to eliminate the department, the Supreme Court has allowed the administration to proceed with layoffs. The Department of Education has already begun shifting responsibilities to the Department of Labor.
