Warren Buffet Makes A Final Decision On Donations to The Gates Foundation (7/15/26)

Warren Buffett left the Gates Foundation out of his annual charitable donations for the first time, directing roughly $6 billion in Berkshire Hathaway stock instead to four foundations connected to his family. The omission followed renewed disclosures about Bill Gates’ meetings and correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein. Buffett also accelerated his broader estate plans, announcing that his remaining Berkshire shares, valued at nearly $146 billion, will be donated to those four foundations by December 31, 2034. The Gates Foundation has received most of Buffett’s previous charitable giving, totaling more than $61 billion since 2006. Buffett and Gates were once exceptionally close, but Buffett said they had not spoken for months following the release of additional Epstein-related documents in late 2025. Gates has denied knowing about Epstein’s crimes and has not been accused of wrongdoing, maintaining that he met Epstein because he believed the financier could help raise money for charitable projects. The Gates Foundation has hired an outside reviewer to examine its past engagement with Epstein and its procedures for vetting potential partners. Buffett declined to directly judge Gates’ conduct, but said he wanted to avoid involvement in anything that might later become the subject of an investigation. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Warren Buffett omits annual donation to Bill Gates’ foundation after his Epstein ties were disclosed - ABC News [https://abcnews.com/Business/wireStory/warren-buffett-omits-annual-donation-bill-gates-foundation-134747146]

The Adfin Deal: Howard Lutnick, Jeffrey Epstein and the Paper Trail (7/15/26)

British whistleblower Simon Andriesz uncovered evidence in the publicly released Epstein records suggesting that Howard Lutnick, now the United States commerce secretary, had a more substantial business relationship with Jeffrey Epstein than Lutnick had previously acknowledged. Andriesz, a former managing director at Lutnick’s Wall Street firm Cantor Fitzgerald, found a 2018 email exchange in which Lutnick personally updated Epstein about Adfin, a digital-advertising company in which companies controlled by both men had acquired stakes in 2012. The correspondence indicated that the two remained in direct communication years after Lutnick claimed he had effectively cut Epstein out of his life. Andriesz provided his findings to American lawmakers before Lutnick appeared at a congressional hearing in May, believing the documents raised serious questions about whether Lutnick had fully disclosed the nature and duration of his Epstein connection. Lutnick has maintained that he did not initially know Epstein was also invested in Adfin and has characterized their interactions as limited, but the records show that the two were involved in the same business venture and were still discussing its performance in 2018. Andriesz expressed frustration that evidence involving such a powerful government official appeared to generate little interest, despite the broader public demand for transparency concerning Epstein’s financial relationships and the influential people surrounding him. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: How US commerce secretary's Epstein links were uncovered by British whistleblower [https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c9q28dlyxrzo]

New Mexico Investigators Seek Prince Andrew’s Epstein Communications (7/15/26)

New Mexico prosecutors have issued evidence-preservation notices to more than two dozen technology, financial and travel companies as they investigate Jeffrey Epstein’s Zorro Ranch and attempt to secure the complete record of Prince Andrew’s communications with Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The notices reportedly cover emails, messages, travel information and other digital records held by companies including Google, WhatsApp, Yahoo, American Express and Expedia. Investigators are particularly interested in Andrew’s reported visits to the ranch, and one source said prosecutors are seeking to preserve “every message” he exchanged with Epstein before routine data-retention policies can erase potentially relevant evidence. The renewed inquiry has included interviews with former ranch employees about visitors, daily operations and Andrew’s alleged presence at the property, including a former worker who reportedly drove him from a local airport. Andrew has not been charged with any offense connected to the investigation and continues to deny wrongdoing or knowledge of Epstein’s crimes. However, the preservation orders represent a significant escalation because they are designed to lock down evidence that could help investigators reconstruct who visited Zorro Ranch, what communications took place and how Epstein’s wider network operated. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: 'Every Message They Exchanged': Ex-Prince Andrew's Communications With Epstein, Maxwell Locked Down by Prosecutors | IBTimes UK [https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/prince-andrew-epstein-investigation-1808310]

Mega Edition: Zorro Ranch And The Mysteries It Still Holds (7/15/26)

Zorro Ranch was long one of the least thoroughly examined pieces of Jeffrey Epstein’s world, despite repeated allegations that women and girls were taken there and abused. Unlike his Manhattan townhouse and Palm Beach residence, the sprawling New Mexico property was not searched by federal authorities after his 2019 arrest, leaving years of activity at the ranch largely unexplored. Its remote location, enormous size and limited law-enforcement scrutiny allowed it to remain one of the darkest gaps in the Epstein investigation, with unanswered questions about who visited, what records were kept there and how the property fit into his broader trafficking operation. That changed in March 2026, when New Mexico investigators finally searched the former ranch after reopening a criminal investigation, but the passage of time has made the search for answers far more difficult. The property had already been sold, witnesses had scattered, physical evidence may have deteriorated and federal records needed by state investigators remained heavily redacted or unavailable. New Mexico officials say those records may identify survivors, witnesses and possible co-conspirators, meaning Zorro Ranch may still hold information capable of expanding the known scope of Epstein’s crimes. The ranch is no longer accurate to describe as never searched, but it remains one of his least fully investigated properties and one of the places most likely to contain secrets that were ignored for far too long. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Mega Edition: Jeffrey Epstein's And The Real Service He Provided People (7/15/26)

Jeffrey Epstein demonstrated a sophisticated ability to obscure where his money came from, where it moved and who ultimately benefited from it. He operated through layers of corporations, trusts, offshore accounts and entities registered in secrecy-friendly jurisdictions, making his financial network difficult to trace as a single, coherent operation. Investigative records have shown that his wealth was spread across numerous companies and banking relationships, while large sums moved between investment vehicles, private accounts and offshore structures. That complexity gave Epstein more than tax advantages. It created distance between his name and his assets, frustrated outside scrutiny and made it harder for victims, investigators and courts to obtain a complete picture of his fortune. The clearest example of Epstein’s financial sophistication may have been Southern Country International, the U.S. Virgin Islands bank he controlled. The bank reportedly had no conventional public-facing operation and remained largely dormant before processing tens of millions of dollars during the months leading up to his July 2019 arrest. Epstein also maintained relationships across major financial institutions long after his 2008 conviction, allowing him to move money through respected banks and investment firms while his broader financial activity remained deeply opaque. It is important to distinguish proven money laundering from financial behavior that appeared structured to conceal ownership and movement, but the surviving record shows that Epstein understood how to use shell entities, offshore jurisdictions, professional intermediaries and fragmented banking relationships to keep his wealth hidden behind layers of legal and financial complexity. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonman.com
