Some comments re Jeffrey Epstein's Gratitude America 2019 990, available on the IRS Charity Search site. As I first noted in April 2019, the only contribution was $10M made by Leon Black via an anon LLC in 2015...
...At Dec 31 2019, Gratitude America's assets were comprised of $8.2M in cash. Trading was halted & all investments were sold off by July 22 after Epstein was arrested on July 6 2019....
...I'm sure it's a coincidence but Gratitude America's largest & most profitable trade in 2019 was the sale of 1000 shares of Microsoft...
...In 2019, Jeffrey Epstein was listed as a director of Gratitude America for the first time since 2014. This gets back to my suspicion he was the unnamed investment consultant paid a total of $529k in 2016 & 2017....
...The Gratitude America 2019 990 was signed by Richard Kahn, President & prepared by David Hasson of Seckendorf Hasson Reilly & Kobay, a CPA & wealth management firm in Lake Success on Long Island....
...In 2019, Gratitude America made three donations, the largest being $150k to International Peace Institute, followed by $50k to the Hasty Pudding Club. A prior donation of $100k was refunded....
...The $100k refund may have been made by Humanity Plus of Los Angeles which rec'd a $100k donation from Gratitude America in 2018....
...Leon Black's $10M donation to Gratitude America was similar to the $21M Leslie Wexner made to Epstein's COUQ Foundation in the early '00s in that it allowed Epstein to appear to be a generous philanthropist. In the past, I speculated whether it was income to Epstein...
...I assume Richard Kahn & Darryl Indyke have the authority to disburse the $8M Gratitude America had in the bank at Dec 31 2019. How they do so will be interesting. The end.

Turns out Steve Bannon's 501c4, Rule of Law Society IV, disclosed the purchase of the Wilton CT property as a subsequent event in the 2019 audited financial statements filed w NYS Charity Bureau...
...The Rule of Law Society IV board may not have been entirely upfront w their auditor about the Wilton property. It was not a "plot of land" & the decision to sell it had already been made as of the date of the auditor's opinion, Nov 13 2020...
...Here's a summary of what I know about the Wilton property transaction if someone wants to follow up. In June 202, two "Nob Hill" LLCs were registered in Delaware, one of which purchased the Wilton property from Jeffrey Satinover....
...Per Wilton Ct property records, Jeffrey Satinover sold the Wilton CT property to an LLC associated w the Rule of Law Society on Aug 5 2020 for $1.475M & the LLC then sold it to an unrelated party on Nov 19 2020 for $1.438M....
...Not familiar w Wilton CT property values but I'm going to guess they haven't declined substantially since 2014 when Jeffrey Satinover purchased the property for $1.99M. If Wilton property values haven't declined, it suggests a portion of the sale may have involved cash...
A few more comments re Mike Pompeo's official State Dept Twitter account. I still don't know where he was on Jan 6 2021. His account tweeted 18x that day but only three tweets posted at 6:16 pm referred to it....
...On Jan 1 2021, Pompeo announced he'd be tweeting about his many many many accomplishments. It appears the tweetstorm was planned in advance & I'm curious as to who put it together....
...Some of the tweets are inadvertently hilarious. Yes, Mike, our relations w the Arctic are indeed warmer than they've ever been. A lot warmer...
