Bill Gates Blames Trump Administration for ‘Lots of Deaths’ Due to Global Aid CutsLucas Nolan 12 Dec 2025
Bill Gates, the Microsoft co-founder reinvented himself as a creepy advocate for climate alarmism and other leftist causes, expressed concern over the projected increase in preventable child deaths, blaming them on cuts in global health funding by the Trump Administration.
In a recent interview with Politico, Bill Gates claimed that for the first time in 25 years, the number of preventable child deaths is projected to increase. His Gates Foundation projects an increase of 200,000 deaths compared to the previous year. Gates directly linked this troubling trend to the decision by the Trump administration and other wealthy countries to slash foreign aid at the beginning of the year.
“There were sudden and massive cuts — you just can’t deny that’s led to lots of deaths,” Gates stated, highlighting the supposed impact of these funding reductions. While the Trump administration disputes this connection, Gates remains determined to work with them to boost funding moving forward. He mentioned having productive conversations with President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to address this issue.
Breitbart News previously reported that Gates attacked Elon Musk and the Trump Administration for cuts in aid funding:
The Microsoft co-founder told the Financial Times that Musk will be responsible for “killing the world’s poorest children” by dismantling the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
As Breitbart News reported, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced in March that 83 percent of the programs directly funded and administered by USAID had been canceled, as their funding was deemed as antithetical to the core interests of the United States.
“The 5,200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States,” Rubio said at the time.
