So misplaced refugees & prisoners, the refugee program is on hold & prisoners are covered, what about law abiding Americans?

Is this enough for you aholes - what percent of jessica snoutwit’s net worth has she donated?0 Should we compare it to what everyone else gave? I hope people stop donating out of fear of you jerks complaining.

Thank you.

In times of excessive greed & egoism both on individual & multinational levels, this is an awesome example of philanthropy! Finding a vaccine is economy-oriented & key to survival and the rest of his pledges are unequivocally humanitarian. Kudos to jack for these commitments.

He’s a POS

Jeff Bezos has done similar and I don't know why The New Yorker has to query his wealth all the time?
