Bill Gates Angry at Elon Musk Is he joking or simply completely misinformed? by Victor Davis Hanson

Bill Gates is angry that Elon Musk is editorializing on X about the internal politics of Europe, from the United Kingdom to Germany. The outraged Gates claims we don’t allow (hired) foreigners to interfere in our domestic politics and don’t do that to others.

Really?

Is he joking, or simply completely misinformed?

1. Does Gates remember Christopher Steele, the British subject and ex-spy who interfered in the 2016 presidential election by fabricating a venomous dossier to destroy the Trump campaign? Yes, it is illegal to hire foreign nationals to work in American presidential campaigns, but that stopped neither Hillary Clinton who used three paywalls to hide her payments to Steele nor the FBI who hired him as an informant and helped spread his salacious lies throughout the media and government.

2. Does Gates remember the British Labor callout to enlist British activists and financial support for them to swarm American swing states in service to the 2024 Kamala Harris campaign?

3. Closer to home, has Gates ever complained about Swiss national and multibillionaire Johann Georg Wyss, and his multimillionaire donations that have poured into Democratic coffers to sway our elections via his “Hub Project”? That long-standing interference makes Musk’s postings seem amateurish in comparison.

4. For that matter, surely Gates is familiar with the chronic efforts of both the Clinton administration (by its own admission) and Obama administration to interfere in elections in Israel over some 20 years in a serial effort to defeat Benjamin Netanyahu— that included inter alia funding with taxpayer monies anti-Netanyahu political groups.

So please, Mr. Gates, spare us you very selective outage about Mr. Musk, given your prior deafening silence on hired foreign interference here and Democratic efforts to interfere in the elections of others—including fueling the Ukrainian opposition in the 2014 Ukrainian election.
