The Microsoft founder Bill Gates told US members of Congress that the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein had sought to “blackmail” him over his extramarital affairs, according to a transcript of the testimony.
The tech pioneer testified behind closed doors before the House oversight committee on 10 June regarding his friendship with Epstein, who died in prison in 2019 as he awaited trial for sex crimes.
According to the transcript released by the committee on Tuesday, Gates spoke of “veiled” threats and said Epstein had considered exploiting his own knowledge of Gates’s extramarital affairs to force him to remain in Epstein’s orbit, even as Gates was distancing himself from Epstein.
“I was not blackmailed, but you know, as you look at these emails, you know, it looks like Mr Epstein’s brainstorming was going in that direction,” Gates added, referring to documents from the Epstein case released in January by the US Department of Justice.
oh, so Bill Gates is the victim now, after giving his wife an STD after sleeping with one of Epstein’s children.
Poor billionaire taken advantage of by underage girls.
And (allegedly) secretly drugging her, don’t forget that part
I don’t care what he or his PR says.
Everyone on the Epstein list is very likely part of a massive criminal group that trafficked children and abused them and killed them. All of their communications and finances for the last 40 years should be closely investigated and made public.
People with massive wealth are a danger to society.
Honestly the longer the guilty go unpunished the less I give a fuck about who is and isn’t guilty or to what degree.
Like the people adjacent to this and protecting them better figure the fuck out sooner than later, for their sake.
Man it’s a good thing he didn’t try to blackmail anyone else!
Gates committed actions that led to someone being able to blackmail him
Not to defend gates, but plenty of people could be blackmailed by their porn viewing history.
Most of us would disagree with the anti-privacy sentiment of, “if you have nothing to hide then why do you care.”
Could people really? I have bizarre kinks and I would just swallow the embarrassment of explaining to everyone I know that hucows are not the same as furries and also not bestiality.
It would suck, but it’s such a better option than being blackmailed into who knows what by monsters.
Are hucows cows that have a human consciousness and can therefore consent, this not making it rape? How are they not furries? Just like semantically?
The way I engage with it, it’s 100% normal humans treated like cows as a form of humiliation. They might be dressed somewhat reminiscently of them, but it’s not nearly as elaborate as furries. It could be as simple as wearing a cowbell, and doesn’t get to full coverage like with a fursuit. It’s also exclusively sexual for me, so it doesn’t feel very similar to furries from my non-furry perspective.
It’s not rape, but I definitely engage with cnc related to it. I can’t explain why I’d like to be treated like livestock, but I do.
From this discussion and the original comment it really seems like your pretty chill with explaining what it is, I mean I guess online is anonymous, but still given the context it seems like in general your sort of ok with humiliation
Ah, that’s a fair guess from the context. I enjoy sexual humiliation from a known partner within a safe, sane, and consensual framework, but I don’t like just anything embarrassing.
Like, I’d prefer it to blackmail, but I have higher social anxiety levels than most people do and don’t seek to be a clown or center of attention at all. I think I would probably cry and leave if asked to do something like that in public.
The man gave his wife VD. Why should we believe anything he say?
Blackmail you with what
Blackmail you with what motherfucker
Well, from what I learned from mainstream media, it would be extramarital affairs with “young woman”. Nothing to see here, all perfectly normal.
Bill Gates shagged little girls. He was on the plane. He went to the island.
Evidently he never went to the island, at least with the current evidence we have access to. I think he did go Epstein’s apartment in New York though.
No he was a poor victim of extramarital affairs. Bill is a great guy he does patent trolling for vaccines and stuff.
Don’t need to go to an island or know Epstein to rape kids. If he did, I hope he burns.
“and that’s why I had him killed”
seriously though, I don’t really feel sorry for people like him … could have been a million different ways you could have had affairs or did whatever but you had to go through Epstein …
So, how many key people have been blackmailed by US and Israel using Epstein data?
Gates asked Epstein for what kind of antibiotics he could slip his wife without her knowing to treat STDs (allegedly, i don’t want to get sued)
It’s in the emails. Not alleged.
Is it allegedly if we have the emails where he in fact asked this?
Extra marital affair is a weird way to say “fucked kids”
wow. I guess it really worked out for gates that epstein decided to commit suicide instead of going through with exposing his powerful friends. he really lucked out.
it’s interesting that when jeff bezos was similarly blackmailed with intel of his affair he released all the info himself like keyser soze. I guess that’s why bill gates isn’t the top robber baron anymore.
Extramarital affairs with children no doubt.
Why were you close enough to him that he knew about your affairs in the first place?
Fuck you. Adultery is the least of your concerns child rapist gates. You probably even ate children (if Gabriela Rico Jimenez were to be believed)
