William Thomas Cain/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — Jeb Bush may have stepped into some controversy when he hired Hipster.com co-founder Ethan Czahor to become his chief technology officer.
As reported by BuzzFeed, Czahor has been scrubbing his Twitter account clean of offensive tweets in which he refers to women as “sluts,” among other questionable comments.
Bush, a former Florida governor, is seriously considering a run for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.
Meanwhile, USA Today reports that it received an email from a Bush spokesperson which reads, “Governor Bush believes the comments were inappropriate. They have been deleted at our request. Ethan is a great talent in the tech world and we are very excited to have him on board the Right to Rise PAC.”
Czahor’s tweets shrunk from 177 to 132 by Monday. One of the deleted ones read, “i know lindsey lohan is supposed to die soon but i’d sure like to sleep with her before that happens.”
The actual first order of business for Czahor, who was hired last week, was creating the microsite jebspeech.com.
