The timing is important
Summary: Remarking on her trip to Africa, where the Gates family lobbies for monopolies on seeds (for profit or course, notably through Monsanto/Bayer, which the Gates family heavily invests in), she posted pure fluff and old photos. And it's hard to believe she had nothing better to do at the time (better than such nostalgia). As we noted last year: "The above tweet of a beach was posted [by Melinda Gates] on the date of the arrest/search of their employee, who was at their residence at the time." He was arrested around the very same time this tweet was posted. As we wrote last year (based on detailed documents obtained from the police department): "This tweet was posted 2 hours and 40 minutes after the door was breached and incriminating evidence collected." He was arrested later that morning at the mansion of Bill and Melinda Gates (the police records contain detailed timelines to confirm the chronology). Melinda's first name was also in the CP 'stash'.
