Warren Buffett resigns as trustee of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
New York Post ^ | June 23, 2021 | Will Feuer

Warren Buffett announced Wednesday that he’s resigning from his position as trustee at the Gates Foundation and that he’s donating another $4.1 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway shares to five charitable organizations.

In 2006, Buffett, who’s the eighth-richest person in the world with a net worth of about $105 billion, pledged most of his fortune to the Gates Foundation and to four other charitable trusts created by his family.

“For years I have been a trustee — an inactive trustee at that — of only one recipient of my funds, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMG),” Buffett said in a statement. “I am now resigning from that post, just as I have done at all corporate boards other than Berkshire’s.”

Trying to distance himself from something?

Very good and fully sourced documentary about Gates. Two hours long but well worth it to understand who he is and what his roots are. Mom and dad were big into eugenics.

Probably distancing himself from the Gates drama-fest with divorce and affair(s) allegations.

My goals are 100% in sync with those of the foundation . . .

Hmm, Warren, does that include reducing the population of the earth to a level that the Davos elites can better manage?

Here’s the obliterator of Omaha. Cut from the same cloth as Gates. Huge in the baby killing industry. He was the impetus for bringing the RU486 into the states. Population control. Bought the Omaha paper and turned it into a liberal rag overnight. Bought the railroad knowing he would help kill the keystone pipeline and his rail cars would get the oil contracts. He’s a slimey evil man.

So he got something right. Accidentally, I’m sure.

Preparing for the inevitable, Charlie is 97 and still vice chairman, but they know someone else will need to be running Berkshire Hathaway before long.

The genocidal aspects of abortion (e.g., kills far more blacks than Chicago holds) .... are those in alignment with your beliefs, Mr. Buffet?

Nothing is surprising anymore.
They’re all criminals.
And all snakes in the same barrel of manure.

*THE SNAKES ARE COMING OUT* .

The masks begin to fall off ! *“The Chinese biological laboratory in Wuhan is owned by GlaxoSmithKline, which (accidentally) owns Pfizer!”* (the one who makes the vaccine against the virus which (accidentally) started at the Wuhan Biological Lab and which was (accidentally) funded by Dr. Fauci, who (accidentally) promotes the vaccine !

*”GlaxoSmithKline is (accidentally) managed by the finance division of Black Rock, which (accidentally) manages the finances of the Open Foundation Company (Soros Foundation), which (accidentally) manages the French AXA !”*

Soros (accidentally) owns the German company Winterthur, which (accidentally) built a Chinese laboratory in Wuhan and was bought by the German Allianz, which (coincidentally) has Vanguard as a shareholder, who (coincidentally) is a shareholder of Black Rock, which (coincidentally) controls central banks and manages about a third of global investment capital. “Black Rock” is also (coincidentally) a major shareholder of MICROSOFT, owned by Bill Gates, who (coincidentally) is a shareholder of Pfizer (which - remember ? sells a miracle vaccine) and (coincidentally) is now the first sponsor of the WHO !

Now you understand how a dead bat sold in a wet market in China has infected the WHOLE PLANET !”
