Buffett halts Gates Foundation donations over Epstein ties
Warren Buffett stopped yearly donations to the Gates Foundation over Bill Gates' ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Buffett withheld donation pending the conclusion of a review by outside attorneys hired by the charity into Epstein ties.
Buffett resigned from the Foundation's board in 2021 but had continued donating billions annually until this year.
Buffett stated his remaining shares will be donated to four foundations by December 31, 2034.
Buffett told CNBC he is no longer speaking with Gates but did not regret past donations.
