Most of the $640 million that MacKenzie Scott is giving away is going to nonprofits supporting extreme left-wing objectives, the New York Post reports.
Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, is doling out $122 million for illegal migrants; $117 million for prisoners and ex-cons; $72 million for LGBTQ rights, including transgender athletes; and $18 million for clean energy, an analysis of her foundation Yield Giving shows.
“Bezos’ ex-wife is using the profits he made through capitalism to the rope that will hang capitalism,” says Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation — a reference to Soviet Union revolutionary leader Vladimir Lenin, who once said, “The capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.”
Elon Musk lambasted Scott on a now-deleted X post: “Super rich ex-wives who hate their former spouse should be listed among ‘Reasons that Western Civilization died.’” Though Scott has donated $17 billion in the past five years and has vowed to give away her fortune until “the vault is empty,” Scott is the 40th richest person on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a net worth of $38.1 billion.
