Please help Katie Porter!! She is the BEST woman we currently have in politics!! She’s very intelligent and she could use your help on our housing crisis!!! As a team you could change our beautiful country!! Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do!! 🤩💗🤩
Yes, Katie is amazing!!!
Katie needs to be in Kamala cabinet. Kamala appointed Katie in CA, I think, to deal with dishonest banking.
Go, Melinda! WA rocks
Unfortunately Katie decided to run for Senate and as a consequence, won't be in the House next term....hopefully she'll be back.
Katie Porter in Kamala 's cabinet would be optimal. She breaks all rules about how a politician should look and act Subverted by the white male cabal
One of the very few politicians I've donated to. Robert Reich would also be a good addition somewhere
I want Katie Porter as VP.
What a classy woman. She seems so down to earth for someone so well off. Her philanthropy comes from the heart.
I love German Gates more
That's just her misleading public appearance.
In reality she is
even nicer, more reasonable and decent!
@@omingomak she seemed kinda out of touch with how people live in US in reality-wealth is isolating, her generosity is an incredible blessing to the world, but honestly I want her to keep enough for her and her children to be comfortable for their allotted days, they have plenty of to share and keep 😆
It’s called bribing people . And pushing poison
Its called bribing people
She's not wrong. All billionaires should either give it back to the people who made them billionaires or get taxed (and pay!) to the extent that the least of us are benefitted by their extraordinary wealth. One human does NOT NEED A BILLION DOLLARS while billions of humans live without so much as potable water!🤬
hey what if they didn't underpay their employees and overcharge their customers in the first place instead of making tax right-offs after the fact
@@Arogogorobrao if you can’t spell the word “write off” you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about
@@SirQuantizationOh, I don’t know; I think they knew exactly how they were spelling it. Rather works for me as well. Nitpicking just makes you look douchie.
@@SirQuantization Yes, and I am pretty sure that taxes were already paid on those dollars, and that yearly investment dividends result(ed) in further payments of taxes on that income.
The Gates family *has* been 'giving it back'. I bought plenty of MS' softwares, but one does not see me wanting money back because I helped make her and her husband's' company rich. I got what I paid for. I would much rather see her examine my ideas to see if she thinks that my proposed contributions to the betterment of the planet are worthy of putting a shovel to the ground in places around the world.
Melinda Gates has a degree in computer science and an MBA. She was a GM marketing manager at Microsoft. Haters, who often look for weaker/uneducated/easy to control women, think all women do is marry for money. If you want to hate on someone, why not say, “She very successful until she was preyed upon by her boss.” In reality though, she helped build Microsoft and deserves her share of the profits to do as she wishes.
She is awesome! Thanks for caring about our rights as women. Women need to stand together in solidarity!
Oh my gosh! She looks beyond great & happy! She is a wonderful role model. ❤thank you for having her on here! I had no idea…but now I’ll know where to more put my donations , questions & money. A place of understanding for me. Great way to start my morning. ❤
I admire Melinda French Gates,not because she is rich ,but because she is generous,intelligent and has a great vision of the future of women in the USA !
I admire Irish Gates more
I watched without, at first, knowing who she is, and I agree. I listened to her and really appreciated what she's about.
well isnt this exactly what Jesus did...helped the less fortunate...
She needs to make some poor friends- but what friend can you watch live in poverty?
How could she ever know what we face?
@@stephengneri2136 you are comparing a woman that the only thing she has done is marry a rich guy and then take his money and kinda gave some away. I say kinda....because I guarentee there isnt one person here that was a recipiant of her donations. NOT ONE. She founded oh wow......womens rights. wowl. Great. WHat happened with the Supreme Courta nd abortion rights? NOTHING. Thanks for the help Melinda. You have how much money that you did nothing to make?
Melinda is a wonderful example of a great human being.
Pretty easy when you get 12.5 billion dollars from a divorce settlement
Fuck the rich.
She's dangerous
NO not all Melinda is a terrible example. Sick evil man a huge criminal that's Melinda Gates believe or not.
Melinda is an evil man. Such a wicked deceitful individual.
What a stellar savvy and generous human! Thank you, Melinda! 👍🌊🇺🇸💙
The interview doesn't do her justice. Probably about a decade ago, I listened to one of her extended interviews. She's extremely sharp.
I guarentee you have no idea where her money goes and can even find an example of her impact on the people in the US. There rich people dont really do anything with there millions. SHe wants to help womans rights and they are the worst now!
She was sharp enough to convince Bill to not have a prenup and get half of all his worth...
@@chamamemestre Naw, she got
@@chamamemestremaybe that was their thing. Executives at Microsoft used to get stock options and big payoffs. She made him better and help ground him and provided a conscience. Their marriage was private. How much is stability worth? How much is a uterus worth? How much is passing on what she did to their children worth? Priceless! Maybe worth of multiple factors need to be part of every person’s playbook.
You go, Melinda!
She's definitely sharp, and she's a Duke grad!
Wow. Nice to hear her speak after seeing only pictures of her for decades. Full disclosure, I've never sought out and watched any interview she may have gave over the years, so that's on me. But this interview with Stephen Colbert definitely raises awareness about her and the causes she advocates for to a very wide audience of people who may have not heard her discuss them before. And wow, is she articulate and passionate. This is great news for the future of America and the rights of women in this country which is presently facing grave threats.
She's phenomenal and will do great things.
Not that she hasn't already done great things, but before Bill seemed to get all the credit.
Bravo Melinda💙💙💙
❤ Melinda! She's a forward and optimistic thinker, shaker, and mover! God bless her always for advocating for moving women forward with full voices and resources.
I so ADMIRE this woman! What a journey she's been on!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like billionaires like Melinda French Gates and McKenzie Scott!
Can you imagine if McKenzie Scott also poured a billion dollars into local State elections to get women (who are not part of the crazy MAGA cult) to run and win thousands of State wide offices around the country? Holy smokes what an impact that would truly make for this country's future, including reversing all the nasty voting and women's healthcare restrictions that have been put in place at the State level over the past 10+ years.
When women have more power and money, the world will look different
Hats off to Melinda for her leadership, great generosity and desire to promote the welfare of others. ❤
I’ve heard her name for years, but this is the first time I’ve heard her speak. I am a fan girl!
This woman exudes class! How refreshing!
Yay 😁 Melinda French Gates. Great interview.
This lady is an absolute ROCKSTAR. WOW, Bill, you effed up.
I'm sure he's realizing that now. She practically stayed out of the limelight to raise their children.
Love to see her free from Gates. She's positively glowing with enthusiasm.
I love Italian Gates more
She kept the Gates on her name. So no totally free.
@@carloszentenoshe shares the name with her children and spent most of her adult life as this name so most divorced mothers do the same. It’s her decision entirely. Bill is a disgusting cheater that spent way too much time on Epstein’s island doing god know what.
@@carloszentenoLots of people do. It’s professional.
@@Moluccan56 i know. My comment goes to the OP. "Free from Gates". McKenzie Scott doesn't need the Bezos...
May the Gods Bless Melinda French Gates! What an amazing person!!!
Be the Change!
Vote 💙
Great interview!
She is stunning!!! Articulate, cool, warm-hearted, and badass... It's delightful to see her in the spotlight!!! ✨
As a Rotarian, I greatly appreciate that both Melinda and Bill joined Rotary in its mission to eradicate polio worldwide. Thanks to them and many many others, including Rotarians, we are so very close to that goal.
Yass, I'm a Rotarian too.
I’m glad you’re doing what you’re doing! But polio is not almost eradicated. We have a subset of the U.S. that is so anti-vax that polio is coming back IN THE U.S.! So frustrating.
Keep up your efforts!
Wow never heard her speak. I had no idea how amazing she is. Thanks for everything you do!
If my Dad had run the household, I'd have grown up in a tent... lady ain't wrong.
This!❤
Great guest United we stand divided we fall.
Funding candidates for State houses is spot on. Dump the Koch stacked GOP boys. In addition to passing better legislation, it will be key to passing US Constitutional amendments.
Pass the ERA
Wow what an awesome lady.
What a great person...thank you!
I am just relieved and happy and hopeful. C. Koch turned malicious eyes on state legislatures with ALEC years ago and appropriated the political voices of states and their local communities. The MFG effort will help folks at the local level have a say in running their states and communities again!
Great woman! Money can’t buy you class and morale
What A Joke
I have always said the Whitney Houston song with the lyrics “…teach our children well….and LET THEM lead the way….” Should be one of our mantras now and forever in our progressive Politics………..Ms French-Gates seems to know this, too…..Brava! Brava!….lets teach and provide and encourage our next future generations with all of the love, passion and courage we have! Lets Go!!!
Not everyone in this country gets a decent school, so hopefully she can help with that
Wonderful! Thank you Melinda!
I'm not a big Melinda Gates fan, but I'm 100% behind having more women in government. It should be a 50/50 split. We need more women making decisions for the future. The men we've had so far, have f'd it up pretty bad.
Bravo, Melinda French Gates!
Read her book about the work she's being doing through her foundation and what she's learned about women's issues around the world, so glad she's investing in these world-wide issues.
I know it is a long shot, but I coach a Middle School Speech & Debate team in Fresno, CA (currently the only one in my school district versus other local districts) that has always been predominantly girls. If Melinda French Gates might be interested in empowering the team, the next generation of leaders, and inspiring the future; Speech & Debate also prepares students for college, career, and the future; as well as encouraging literacy skills, civility, advocacy, creativity, persuasion, collaboration, adaptability, and emotional intelligence.
She's a cheerful giver, God bless her immensely ❤
THIS!!!! This is the way!!!!
She exudes nothing but grace & smarts..She cares nothing about money,only to help people all over the globe...Kudos to Melinda,a class act..
If society is happy it benefits everyone.
Melinda French Gates does care about what money can do aside from growing for the investor - she cares that money helps others and brings them along.
My daughter picked Nona as my grandma name. My granddaughter changed it to Nono. And I love it.
Thank you Melinda, I appreciate that you care eonough about others to feel the need to give back. Wonderful that you are on board working towards women's rights.
Thank you Melinda French Gates 🙏🏻😌
Supercharging women in politics. What a superb initiative. I hope Melinda takes it global.
Thank you Melinda for continuing to do great impactful work. You make the world a better place!!
omg, I LOVE her! Bringing a tear to my eye! Agree completely with her - but wealthy people like her are extremely rare!! Thank you Stephen for having Melinda as a guest.
I’m so glad she’s stepping into the fight for women’s rights.
My grandkids call me Baba (babcia in Polish) - forget that baba means father in some language...Go Melinda! Congrats grandma! You always know what we need as a nation - smart women like you!
Just LOVE her! What a brilliant, caring, generous human being!
Instead of philanthropy lets change the mechanism for the distribution of wealth.
Had to scroll too far to read this.
Gutless politicians and corporate owned media will never even admit that redistribution is a problem. The whole discussion is on increasing production and/or reducing taxation and regulation. Corporate dominated education is also part of the problem.
Thank you Melinda French Gates!!!
What a great mission! Thanks Melinda❤.
Totally agree with Melinda. Men have no business dictating on whatever is primarily a woman's concern, such as abortion. Women don't decide on men's issues. Why should men decide on women's issues?
A great person, she should be and hopefully is a fantastic role model.
WOW! She is an amazing woman! I'm duly impressed w/her. I enjoyed this interview w/Stephen Colbert. Enjoy!!
Love her 🙋🏻♀️
Thank you Melinda French Gates!! Wow!! Big thanks.
Wow Thank you Melinda! My granddaughters will Thank you as they get older.
God Bless this woman. I think she’s someone I would like to know.
I saw her first and MY nose is bigger (than yours or hers) so I win! :-)
I can’t imagine any greater opportunity to really change peoples lives for the better. She is incredible! Her joy comes across like a ray of sunshine. You go Melinda!!!!
I LOVE her! Thank you, Melinda Gates!
Elephants got it right. Matriarchs FTW.
True, we men have fucked up the world.
@@chi5860 wow
Melinda French Gates, thank you for your thoughtful role in promoting women in government.
She leads. And headed the right way for the country and the world. Love it.
Makes a person so hopeful to hear her articulate, empassioned vision for bringing the concerns of women into greater prominence in government at all levels. Go MFG!
Such a captivating upload.
What an amazing and powerful woman. Thankfully she's on the right side of this battle.
Awesome woman.
She is a breath of fresh air!
Not a single second of hesitation when asked if she would give her money 💜
Congratulations Melinda! Grand children is “The icing on the cake of life”. 🦋💖🥰👍
Remarkable woman!
That's a man an evil man.
My life has been hell every step of the way. It’s been a fight for my own freedom every goddamn day. I’m definitely not lucky but people assume because I’m a white man in America I’m privileged. Couldn’t be further from the truth.
God bless Melinda French Gates. Your family generation will be blessed!!
Noblesse oblige ❤
Thank You Melinda French Gates for all you're doing with Pivotal Ventures. Women have a right to equality and independence to make their own choices about their lives.
Melinda is the BEST! Sooooo smart, so pretty, so cool! Love that woman!!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting he 30 years ago she was so kind then and seems to be now.
Thank you Melinda
I became " Ama " . 😊 it didn't sound so old, and I thought it would be easier to say. I was right too , and I love it 😂😂😂😊
Love this woman!
Both Melinda and Bill have helped so many people in the world!!
Beautiful, elegant, smart and compassionate
She is awesome!!!!🌟
Honestly, I can't get over how shiny her hair is. ❤
You go, Melinda!!
I love being called grandma, if I hear it across the house, I stop what I’m doing and run to play, I’m a kid again playing with cars and Barbie dolls❤❤
Thank you Melinda French Gates. You have just empowered me to pursue and live my purpose. Thank you.
I am so happy she is FREE and using her voice ❤
Good to hear & see. At the age of 60 in the 21st century, I am stunned to see men still feeling entitled to dictate the lives of women & girls - right down to the functioning of their uteruses. It’s obscene.
Keep your laws out of our uteri and your paws out of our kittie-kats 👿
Her book The Moment of Lift was remarkable. It is one of the best books I’ve ever read. She’s amazing.
Thank-you, Thank-you Mrs Gates....
That is great
These people have TOO MUCH MONEY
Melinda "french" gates is now an Italian grandmother lol
What an example of what wealth truly means…the ability to make other’s lives better. Billionaires like Elon Musk are greedy, ego driven, immature, selfish and in my opinion, disgusting. Melinda is a selfless, caring philanthropist and I love her attitude about her wealth and her drive to help women “make the agenda”. I admire this person so very much.
Thank you, Melinda for being who you choose to be in this world.
Stephen Colbert and Melinda Gates are very special and talented people.
