The thing abt Bill Gates cutting off funding to Dems (on the same day he visits Trump) -- he actually IS someone that Epstein ... or Ghislaine -- might have blackmail on. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...

A NYT story: Gates Foundation Quietly Cuts Ties With Firm Linked to Democrats Officials made no mention of politics in cutting ties with a network of nonprofit funds, but Bill Gates has made other moves to insulate the charity from political pressures.

His ex-wife gave an interview not long ago where she was asked about Gates’ relationship with Epstein & she said part of the reason she divorced Gates was because after they knew about Epstein Gates continued seeing him. I am not quoting as I was shocked she said it & did not go back to re-watch it.
