Though Democrats claim that Republicans are "protecting the powerful" by allegedly suppressing the release of the Epstein files, political contribution records show that Democrats have received tens of millions in campaign contributions from a major Epstein-files figure. That figure is none other than Microsoft founder Bill Gates. On Thursday, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform asked Gates to testify over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. (snip) Gates has donated millions through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and its partner nonprofit servicing group, Arabella Advisors, to major Democrat politicians and committees,

All Gate's "philanthropy" seems to be political activism related to illegal political contributions to the Democrat Party.

Gates is creepy on multiple levels. His pushing vaccines is very suspect. And now "Based on reports from Cosmico, TerraPower, the nuclear energy startup founded by Bill Gates, has partnered with Sabey Data Centers to explore powering AI-driven computing facilities using advanced Natrium reactor technology, addressing the growing energy demands of data centers while providing clean, reliable power." What fresh Hell is this?

Thank you Poster #2. I have not heard of Natrium reactor technology before, so I Googled it. Of course, it only gave me the pros so I purposely requested the cons. Boy, is that an eye opener. First two right out of the gate were safety risks and core instability. To quote them; Liquid sodium is highly reactive; it burns when exposed to air or water. Critics raise concerns about the potential for fires and the lack of a traditional, robust physical containment structure compared to conventional reactors. And, the second: The reactor design could potentially experience rapid, uncontrollable power increases (a "positive void coefficient") under certain conditions, leading to potential core damage. Knowing Bill's track record, this most likely will not turn out in favor of humankind. His deep seeded yearning for Eugenics to be implemented in the world would make me question something as important as this. I am in favor of nuclear power, but stick to what we know is the safest for all.

Interesting as I recall back during the Clinton admin Microsoft was non political but then the Clinton admin sued them and suddenly they became active Democrat supporters. I wonder if it all flowed from that period of time and what some had on Bill Gates that energized him to be so supportive and defend Democrats.

A long-time U.S. Supreme Court reporter for the New York Times, Linda Greenhouse, recently wrote a surprisingly candid description of how U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts added "gratuitous" language into his opinion on the recent tariff case, personally criticizing the president on record. Greenhouse conveniently frames the justice's indulgence, however, as a legitimate "warning" to both the president and "the waiting world." She states that Roberts "is losing patience with Trump." Apparently, the chief justice is thought to be entitled to act as a shadow president.

In a June 24, 2022, letter to Biden, then-state representative Talarico urged "extraordinary steps" to counter pro-life protections enacted after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Among his specific demands were "leasing federal property to abortion clinics" (snip) and "hiring abortion providers as federal employees" (snip)
