On Monday, the left-wing Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation announced from the annual World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland that it intends to spend billions of dollars on left-wing causes in the year 2024.
According to the Daily Caller, the foundation’s board of trustees voted in favor of a record-high budget of $8.6 billion in 2024, up from the previous year’s $8.3 billion and $7 billion in 2022. The foundation has a history of spending millions on such causes as abortion, pro-Democrat nonprofits, and Chinese government entities.
Ever since the far-left abortion provider Planned Parenthood was first founded, the Gates Foundation has donated over $94 million to the group, and donated $10.5 million in just the year 2022. The foundation has donated to other pro-abortion groups such as the European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights, and MSI Reproductive Choices.
Other organizations that have been funded by the Gates Foundation include the New Venture Fund, which has been given over $200 million by the Gates Foundation since 2016. New Venture is one of several nonprofits operating under the network run by Arabella Advisors, one of the largest dark money operations in American politics. New venture was recently subpoenaed by the District Attorney of Washington D.C. over allegations that the group has cut corners legally to support Democratic candidates for office.
The Gates Foundation declared that its spending priorities in 2024 will be focusing on “reducing inequities in health,” which will include the distribution of HPV vaccines, as well as implementing AI-enabled ultrasound technology to better detect health risks in pregnancies.
“The Gates Foundation measures impact in terms of lives saved and opportunities provided to the poorest,” said Mark Suzman, CEO of the Gates Foundation.
Bill Gates himself has come under greater scrutiny following the Chinese Coronavirus pandemic, during which he was an outspoken supporter of the controversial and untested vaccines which have subsequently led to a wide variety of health issues in many otherwise healthy Americans who received the shot. His continued financial support for the Chinese government and Chinese entities has also drawn criticism due to China’s role in the start and spread of the virus.
