Gates Accuses Musk of "Killing" Children with USAID Cuts

The picture of the world's richest man killing the world's poorest children is not a pretty one," he told the Financial Times.

Gates also cites the grants that Musk cancelled in Gaza and Mozambique, which are meant to prevent the spread of HIV from mothers to babies " but which Musk has falsely said are used to fund condoms.

"I'd love for him to go in and meet the children that have now been infected with HIV because he cut that money," Gates said.

"Gates vowed to give away "virtually all" of his wealth through the Gates Foundation over the next two decades, he announced Thursday.

Gates' "key aspirations" to guide the foundation's funding over the next two decades center on promoting child and maternal health and fighting infectious diseases and poverty.

Those target areas overlap with the USAID programs from which Musk and the Trump administration cut billions."

SO much winning!
