Gates with Mila Antonova who was just out of her teens when they met.
Peadophile Jeffrey Epstein threatened to expose an affair billionaire Bill Gates was having if he didn’t participate in his 'charitable fund', according to a reporter at the Wall Street Journal.
Reported Sunday, the newspaper said that Epstein wanted Gates to invest in a multibillion-dollar 'charitable fund' with JPMorgan back in 2013, but Gates refused. Epstein then sent Gates an email in 2017 implicitly warning him he would expose an affair Gates had in 2010 with bridge player Mila Antonova if he didn’t participate.
The Wall Street Journal reports:
The Microsoft co-founder met the woman around 2010, when she was in her 20s. Epstein met her in 2013 and later paid for her to attend software coding school. In 2017, Epstein emailed Gates and asked to be reimbursed for the cost of the course, according to the people familiar with the matter.
The email came after the convicted sex offender had struggled and failed to convince Gates to participate in a multibillion-dollar charitable fund that Epstein tried to establish with JPMorgan Chase. The implication behind the message, according to people who have viewed it, was that Epstein could reveal the affair if Gates didn’t keep up an association between the two men.
Mila Antonova, the Russian bridge player, declined to comment on Gates and said she didn’t know who Epstein was when they met. “I had no idea that he was a criminal or had any ulterior motive,” she said of Epstein. “I just thought he was a successful businessman and wanted to help.” She added: “I am disgusted with Epstein and what he did.”
The new details about Epstein and Gates reveal a layer of complexity to their relationship, and shed new light on how Epstein operated. In the years between his 2008 conviction and death, Epstein packed his days meeting with politicians, businessmen, academics and celebrities. He provided favours and sought to use the connections for his own purposes.
Bill Gates has continued to be linked to Epstein and is said to be one of many celebrities on the manifest list to Epstein's "Peado Island". Gates and Epstein held multiple meetings on the billionaire financier’s private Caribbean island, as well as in Paris, New York, and in New Jersey, which Gates later claimed he regretted doing. “I had dinners with him. I regret doing that,” the Microsoft co-founder told PBS’s Judy Woodruff in 2021.
Rumours about Gates involvement with Epstein appear to be, yet another, conspiracy theory that is coming true. The Gates 'damage limitation' machine is about to swing in to action. Perhaps another Pandemic may be needed to distract us all.
