6. good for him
Tue Jul 15, 2025, 08:15 AM
Yesterday

melinda and bill have donated a lot of money
to help our planet and people. sure he could have
paid more taxes which right now would go to line
krankov's pockets but no rockets and he is still
funding fusion development. more, much more
need to speak out and get louder!
