Globalist billionaire Bill Gates has accused X boss Elon Musk of “killing the world’s poorest children.”
The Microsoft co-founder claims Musk is “killing” kids in the third world through his work as a senior advisor for President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Gates specifically targeted Musk over taxpayer funding cuts to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Notably, the fraudulent agency was giving huge taxpayer-funded grants to the Gates Foundation to pay for “vaccine” experiments in the third world.
Gates renewed his long feud with Musk during an interview with the Financial Times published Thursday.
The “vaccine” advocate pointed to the slashing of grants to a hospital in Mozambique’s Gaza Province.
Gates claims that the cuts have undermined efforts to prevent mothers from passing HIV to their newborns.
He then claimed that Musk is “killing” those children by cutting fraud and waste in the federal government.
“The picture of the world’s richest man killing the world’s poorest children is not a pretty one,” Gates said.
“I’d love for him [Musk] to go in and meet the children that have now been infected with HIV because he cut that money.”

According to Musk, Gates once approached him to “discuss philanthropy possibilities.”
However, Musk rebuffed the overture, citing Gates’ $500 million short position on Tesla stock.
Gates confirmed that he has not closed.
Musk argues that Gates’s effort to profit from the falling stock of an electric vehicle company proves that his “climate change” advocacy is disingenuous.
The Tesla CEO reportedly sent a text to Gates, saying:
“Sorry, but I cannot take your philanthropy on climate change seriously when you have a massive short position against Tesla, the company doing the most to solve climate change.”
Gates has also taken swipes at Musk’s financial decisions after Tesla announced a $1.5 billion investment in Bitcoin.
Speaking to Bloomberg, Gates said:
“Elon has tons of money and he’s very sophisticated, so I don’t worry that his Bitcoin will sort of randomly go up or down.”
Gates also issued a warning to Tesla’s retail investors, saying:
“If you have less money than Elon, you should probably watch out.”
In 2022, Musk publicly mocked Gates on X.
Musk shared a meme to his tens of millions of followers that compared the Microsoft co-founder to an emoji depicting a pregnant man.
The latest attacks against Musk coincide with a new announcement from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
The organization will invest over $200 billion in the next 20 years to advance its public health mission, with plans to cease operations by 2045.
“In our first 25 years, fueled partly by Warren Buffett’s generosity, the Gates Foundation distributed over $100 billion,” Gates stated.
“We aim to double that impact in the next two decades.”
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation was founded in 2000.
It was launched in the same year Bill Gates stepped down as Microsoft CEO.
In 2024, Melinda French Gates departed the foundation, three years after the couple’s divorce.
