Not even a week after Kamala Harris took over as the Democratic presidential nominee, major donors are already making demands of her potential administration. Democratic backers in the business sector have called on Harris to fire Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chair Lina Khan.

LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and IAC Chairman Barry Diller, both longtime major Democratic donors, have led the charge against Khan, with the latter calling her a “dope.”

Hoffman, who has helped persuade other members of the rich and powerful to fund Democratic causes, told CNN that he is “redoubling” his support for Harris, but hopes that she will replace Khan. “Lina Khan is…a person who is not helping America,” Hoffman said. “Antitrust is fine…Waging war is not.”

Diller on Friday told CNBC he would lobby a Harris administration to drop Khan. The media mogul has said he will “donate the maximum” to Harris’s campaign and that she will beat former president Donald Trump’s “broken down ass.”
