The Reckoning Begins: Senate Big Guns Target Bill Gates for Bolstering the Chinese Communist Party’s Tyrannical Grip

Grassley’s letter pulls no punches, grilling the Gates Foundation on its compliance with IRS guidelines that prohibit tax-exempt organizations from directly funding foreign governments. The Iowa Republican highlights how the foundation’s FY 2022 tax filings show $23 million funneled to Chinese entities, some explicitly tied to the CCP’s military-industrial complex. For instance, $2 million went to CRRC, a rail giant the Pentagon has flagged as a PLA collaborator, while millions more flowed to universities like Tsinghua and Peking, which conduct research for Beijing’s war machine.

Grassley demands answers by November 10, including details on foreign projects funded over the last five years, decision-making processes, and any tax liabilities incurred under IRC Sections 4942 and 4945. “Direct grants to foreign governments do not serve IRC 501(c)(3) purposes,” Grassley warns, signaling a potential revocation of the foundation’s nonprofit status—a body blow to Gates’ operations that could force him to pay billions in back taxes. This probe isn’t isolated; it’s the culmination of years of conservative scrutiny over Gates’ cozy relationship with the CCP. Breitbart’s coverage of Peter Schweizer’s “Red-Handed” book exposed how Gates helped China develop advanced nuclear reactors through his TerraPower venture, technology that could help Beijing overtake U.S. military superiority.

“Bill Gates Developed Nuclear Reactors That Help China Overtake the U.S. Military,” Breitbart headlined, detailing how Gates’ 2011 discussions with China led to joint projects that handed over sensitive tech, all while he outsourced Microsoft jobs to the communist regime. The Daily Wire’s investigative piece “How Bill Gates Secretly Partnered With China — And Sold Out The American People” revealed Gates’ role in aiding CCP censorship, with Microsoft under his watch helping Beijing suppress dissidents through Bing’s filtered results. Gates’ foundation has pumped hundreds of millions into China, including initiatives that bolster the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the CCP’s debt-trap diplomacy scheme to dominate global infrastructure. Grassley’s letter cites these BRI-linked grants as evidence of improper foreign government support, putting Gates’ entire philanthropic facade under the microscope.

Interesting.

This coincides with Bill Gates’ sudden change of heart about climate change.

Gates’ support for the CCP isn’t new—it’s a betrayal conservatives have hammered for years. Fox News reported Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) ripping Gates for funding gain-of-function research linked to the Wuhan lab, calling it a “danger to mankind” as Gates’ dollars flowed to Chinese scientists experimenting on viruses. “Bill Gates is the largest funder of trying to find these viruses in remote caves and bring them to big cities,” Paul blasted, tying Gates to the COVID outbreak that wrecked America’s economy. Breitbart highlighted Gates’ 2020 praise for China’s “extreme intervention” in crushing the virus, ignoring the regime’s lies and cover-ups that let it spread globally. “They were able to crush that epidemic,” Gates gushed, even as he dismissed criticism of Beijing as a “distraction.”

The Daily Wire chronicled Gates’ 2023 Beijing pilgrimage, where CCP dictator Xi Jinping hailed him as an “old friend” and the “first American friend I’ve met in Beijing this year.” Gates lavished praise on China, offering $50 million for joint disease research—code for more tech transfers that boost the PLA. Breitbart exposed Gates’ push to outsource American jobs to China, promising Microsoft expansions there while U.S. workers suffered. The Federalist slammed Gates for schmoozing China on climate, ignoring how Beijing’s coal binge mocks his “green” agenda, all while he jets private to lecture Americans. Gates’ foundation has funneled billions to China, including for “public health initiatives” that mask military research, as Grassley’s probe reveals. This isn’t philanthropy—it’s aiding and abetting the CCP’s quest for world domination. The Daily Wire reported Gates defending China’s COVID handling as “very good,” attacking U.S. responses to score points against Trump.
