The Epstein curse continues to plague Gates.

We have been reporting here on TGP on how Bill Gates’ ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein are causing him problems that go beyond the mere reputational damage and family breakdown.

Today, it arises that billionaire investor Warren Buffett will not make his usual mid-year donation to the Gates Foundation for the first time in 20 years.

Buffet reportedly awaits more details about the charity’s links to Epstein.

Forbes reported:

“Citing unnamed sources with knowledge of Buffett’s plans, the Wall Street Journal reported that the billionaire investor is delaying his donation plans until later this year and may wait until his annual Thanksgiving letter.

Last June, Buffet made a record donation of $6 billion in Berkshire Hathaway shares to five charities—his biggest ever—with the lion’s share going to the Gates Foundation.”

Since 2006, Buffet has donated no less than $48 billion to Gates’ philantropic organization.

“Buffett and his aides have been in contact with the foundation’s leadership in a bid to learn more about its links to Epstein, the Journal’s report added.

In March, Buffett told CNBC that he hasn’t spoken with Gates since the release of the Epstein files, which highlighted the Microsoft founder’s relationship with the convicted sex offender (Gates has not been accused of any wrongdoing).”
