Elon Musk, the world’s richest man whose net worth is close to $300 billion, said Sunday that he would cut a check to help end world hunger.
Musk, however, placed a stipulation on his offer that will probably not be well received by the organization that called him out. What is the background?
Last week, David Beasley, the director of the United Nations’ World Food Programme, told CNN that a $6 billion donation from the world’s top billionaires — like Musk or Amazon founder Jeff Bezos — could immediately save 42 million people from starvation.
“The governments are tapped out. This is why and this is when the billionaires need to step up now on a one-time basis: Six billion dollars to help 42 million people that are literally going to die if we don’t reach them,” Beasley said. “It’s not complicated. I’m not asking them to do this every day, every week, every year,” Beasley continued. “Just help me with them, one time. That’s a $6 billion price tag.”
Beasley noted that Bezos and Musk made far more than $6 billion since the pandemic began last year and said Musk’s net worth recently increased by $6 billion in a single day.

I’m for people making money, but God knows I’m all for you helping people who are in great need right now. The world is in trouble.”
“Wake up, smell the coffee, and help!” Beasley pleaded. What did Musk say?

In response, Musk said he would liquidate $6 billion worth of Tesla stock to finance Beasley’s request. However, Musk added that the U.N. would need to prove that every penny donated went toward feeding people.
“If WFP can describe on this Twitter thread exactly how $6B will solve world hunger, I will sell Tesla stock right now and do it,” Musk said. “But it must be open source accounting, so the public sees precisely how the money is spent.”In response, Beasley said […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
