Grant maker funneling deep state money among other things to pandemic planning. Financed Event 201.

Open Philanthropy (Open Phil) is a 11 billion research and grantmaking "philanthropic" foundation. The foundation has noticeably financed use of "synthetic meat", "insect meat", the potential risks of Artificial Intelligence, mosquito genetic extinction technology ("Target Malaria"), viral diagnostic tools, a "universal flu vaccine", the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, and several pandemic exercises, including the notorious Event 201; and indirect financing of Black Lives Matter.

People

Its current co-chief executive officers are Holden Karnofsky and Alexander Berger, and its main funders are Cari Tuna and Dustin Moskovitz, one of the founders of Facebook. Moskovitz and Tuna are members of The Giving Pledge, a Bill Gates-led coordination effort for "philanthropic" money.

Open Philanthropy "fund longer timelines than government or industry".[1] Notable people that Open Philanthropy has paid as consultants include Avril Haines, Director of National Intelligence under US President Joe Biden,[2] and political scientist Steven Teles.[3] Other funders who have contributed to Open Philanthropy include Instagram co-founder Mike Krieger, who pledged $750,000.[3]

Return on investment

A 2008 Vox article points out that the "Key to Open Phil's thinking about policy is the idea of leverage. Effective advocacy work isn't necessarily that expensive, and when it works, its impact can be several orders of magnitude bigger. For instance, $100 million spent lobbying for a health reform bill could produce hundreds of billions of dollars in new health spending. Even if you don't think the lobbying is guaranteed to work, it's an attractive-looking investment."

If the controllers of the foundation also has investments in Big Pharma [Citation Needed], this makes it a loss leader for other profit.

Grants

The listed grants are a selection from their database as of November 2022[4] Event 201.[5]

Open Phil is a large funder of Black Lives Matter through the intermediaries such as [6] Color of Change, The National Council for Incarcerated and Formerly Incarcerated Women and Girls, Real Justice PAC, Citizen Action of New York, Michigan Liberation, Justice LA, Voice of the Experienced, Southsiders Organizing for Unity and Liberation, Project Nia, Essie Justice Group, Equity and Transformation, and the Texas Organizing Project.[7]
