    Some basic Google sleuthing shows he’s a centrist and hasn’t made a public political donation since the 90s and that was $5000.

    He has the second largest private personal charity, Dalio Philanthropies, which seems to dabble in a bit of everything.

    Private charities don’t thrill me, because it can be a huge source of dark money and it still maintains the charity owner’s personal will and keeps their personal influence level high instead of just donating money to be used however the people receiving donations feels is best.

    This link gives a little more specific insight to what he participates in, but it’s still fairly vague. He’s basically trying to do the Gates/Buffet give it all away by the time you die thing, so it’s probably as good as one can expect from a hedge fund guy.
