Bill Gates is the Big Kahuna. His Gates Foundation is the nation’s largest charitable foundation with an endowment of $77 billion.

So it’s big news that Gates is no longer contributing money to Arabella Advisors, a $1 billion a year left-wing “dark money” network that the New York Times describes as having “funneled hundreds of millions of dollars through a daisy chain of groups supporting Democrats and progressive causes.”  Gates was one of Arabella’s earliest backers when it was formed in 2005 and has since directed or given over $450 million to nonprofit funds that Arabella administers.

Arabella itself doesn’t make grants or engage in explicit political activity, but it’s the mothership for funding climate change and big government initiatives worldwide. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly given $350 million to Arabella.

Elon Musk claims that Arabella is a key funder of a “left-wing NGO cabal” that was behind anti-Tesla protests after he was made head of the DOGE cost-cutting effort by President Trump.

This good news from Bill Gates comes at a time when Trump has issued a long-overdue executive order authorizing the Attorney General to investigate political use of federal grants. If you want to read a good book on Arabella, we suggest a great book Arabella by Scott Walter.
