“ Buffett may end donations to Gates Foundation over Bill's Epstein ties
Revelations in the Jeffrey Epstein files about the notorious pedophile's connections to Bill Gates have severely strained, and perhaps ended, the Microsoft co-founder's famous friendship with Warren Buffett.
They could also prompt Buffett to cut off his annual multi-billion-dollar donations to the Gates Foundation.
In a one-hour-plus sit-down interview (full audio and transcript appear below) that aired on Tuesday's "Squawk Box," Buffett told Becky Quick he has not talked to Gates "at all since the whole thing was unveiled."
Asked if he is still "good friends" with Gates, Buffett replied they'd had "great times together," but "until it gets cleared up ... I just don't think it makes sense to do a lot of talking."
Noting that his "memory is no good anymore," Buffett added, "I don't want to be under oath, in terms of trying to remember everything over 30 years, or 20 years, the foundation's done, or anything like that."
"I didn't have anything to do with it, except I put money in it."
