Warren Buffett Pauses Gates Foundation Donation Amid Epstein Review (7/1/26)

Warren Buffett has reportedly paused his usual mid-year donation to the Gates Foundation while he waits for the results of an outside review into the foundation’s past ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Buffett has given more than $47 billion in Berkshire Hathaway stock to the foundation over the years, making him one of its most important donors, but renewed scrutiny of Bill Gates’ relationship with Epstein has now put that giving under a cloud. The review was ordered by Gates Foundation CEO Mark Suzman after recently released Justice Department emails showed Epstein communicating with foundation staff and trying to insert himself into Gates-linked philanthropy.

Bill Gates has said his meetings with Epstein were about philanthropy and global health funding, while also admitting the relationship was a mistake. During private testimony to House Oversight lawmakers, Gates reportedly said Epstein later tried to pressure him using knowledge of Gates’ extramarital affairs, though Gates denied witnessing criminal activity. Buffett’s decision to hold back until the review is complete shows how Epstein’s fallout is still reaching into the highest levels of philanthropy, raising questions about what the Gates Foundation knew, how close Epstein got to its network, and whether one of its biggest benefactors is willing to keep writing massive checks without clearer answers.
