Billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, a Swiss national who lives in Wyoming, has become a “Democrat-aligned mega-donor,” according to the Associated Press (AP), thanks to his funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to left-wing groups.
“Newly available tax documents show that his giving through the Berger Action Fund, which describes itself as advocating for ‘solutions to some of our world’s biggest problems,’ swelled in 2021 to $72 million, cementing Wyss’ status as a Democratic-aligned megadonor,” the AP reports.
Wyss, who built his fortune creating the medical device company Synthes USA, which was sold in 2012 to Johnson & Johnson for $20 billion, has routed nearly $340 million through the Berger Action Fund to left-wing organizations like Sixteen Thirty Fund and the New Venture Fund since 2016.
Both groups have worked to build support for President Joe Biden’s agenda.
Specifically, Sixteen Thirty Fund is a left-wing lobbying organization that promotes “equity and racial justice” as well as universal healthcare and climate change legislation. The Sixteen Thirty Fund also shifts money to left-wing political organizations like the scandal-plagued Lincoln Project and the pro-Biden group Unite the Country.
As Politico reported in 2021, the group spent $410 million in the 2020 presidential election to unseat then-President Donald Trump and win Democrats a Senate majority with ad campaigns and a huge get-out-the-vote effort. Since 2016, Wyss has donated $208 million to the Sixteen Thirty Fund.

Why the hell can’t we seem to find right-wing megadonors?
Why is this foreign national allowed to participate in our elections? He should take his tail back to Europe and stay there, along with Soros.
Because most people on the right are not anti American criminals aligned with George Soros and the WEF globalist crowd.
America is being invaded by all kinds of foreigners because the left and the WEF are ushering in the NWO.
CIA, where are you? Yup, he’s in the country, but since when have the laws been followed?
these are the globalists hell bent on the great reset. How do we deal with these pukes
More Euroswill comes to America to destroy the country.
Why, because the love of money is the root of all evil. Good people can make millions, but not billions. And the few good people who do make billions are not so arrogant to think themselves to be superior beings to dictate to others how to live.
These sizeable “donations” should tell people that these folks don’t really care about solutions. If they did, they would take that money and use it directly to any particular cause, instead of giving it to one party.
Why are these ultra rich Euros all Bolshevik extremist Marxist terrorist progressives?
Remember when the Bolsheviks said the Capitalists would sell them the rope they would hang them with?
Well, here we are.
“Why are these ultra rich Euros all Bolshevik extremist Marxist terrorist progressives?”
A planned economy is most attractive to those arrogant enough to think THEY will be in the planning class.
Once you understand that Communism is all about concentrating all power to a central planning elite, it all makes sense.
Send Soros back to Hungary and keep Wyss where he is, America doesn’t need scum anymore.
Send Wyss back too.
Ah, yes. Soros and Wyss. Two peas in a pod.
Because Freedom and Liberty are individual rights. They value the end-users of a just republic. Tyranny and oppression otoh only value the leaders of a dictatorship.
Why the hell can’t we seem to find right-wing megadonors?People on the Left see government as the answer.
People on the Right see government as the problem.
Thereby hangs a tale.
And WHY do we let outsiders meddle in US politics??
Soros’s son is taking over the business,and he looks even crazier than his father!
