Bill Gates buying up land, threatening small farms under guise of saving planet, author claims

Seamus Bruner's new book, "Controligarchs," claims wealthy activists like Bill Gates are monopolizing America's food supply under the guise of saving the planet.

Author and investigative journalist Seamus Bruner — who led teams whose findings sparked multiple FBI investigations and congressional probes into the Clinton and Biden families — says that his research uncovered Gates's efforts to buy up American farmland and invest in synthetic dairy and lab-grown meats in the name of preventing climate change. In the process, Bruner says, Gates is doing more to inflate his net worth than eliminate carbon emissions. Brianna Herlihy is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.

"First, it was patented seeds and patented fertilizers, and now they are patenting meat alternatives. Banning cattle would grant effective monopolies to the alternative protein companies and benefit investors such as Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and even BlackRock. Fake meats are about controlling the food market, not saving the planet," Bruner said in an interview with Fox News Digital.
