Biden Had Firm at Center of Trump Hacking Scandal on Campaign Payroll

Neustar Information Services executive allegedly wanted Clinton administration post

The Biden campaign’s payments raise questions about whether Joffe continued snooping on Trump in the most recent election. The Biden and Clinton campaigns are the only two presidential committees to have ever paid Neustar, according to Federal Election Commission records. Biden’s campaign paid Neustar $18,819 on Sept. 29, 2020, the records show. The Clinton campaign paid the firm $3,000 in May 2015 for mobile phone services. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee paid $3,000 to Neustar in 2017. Neustar executives and staffers contributed $17,906 to Biden’s campaign, FEC records show.

Durham alleges that Joffe and his associates "mined" the White House traffic data [in 2016] "for the purpose of gathering derogatory information about Donald Trump." Joffe, who retired from Neustar in September, allegedly told associates that he was investigating Trump in order to please "VIPs" on the Clinton campaign. He also allegedly wanted a job in the Hillary Clinton administration.
