What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. Bill Gates is once again being thrust into the Jeffrey Epstein spotlight. And this time, there's reports coming out of the Wall Street Journal saying that Bill Gates was being blackmailed by Jeffrey Epstein. And for those of you who have been following along with the story for all of these years, you know that this is not breaking news. This is exactly how it works. Now, people will tell you that blackmail was not a big deal with Jeffrey Epstein. Well, maybe not in the traditional sense. Right. Not the blackmail of. Okay, look, I'm gonna rat you out, and you're gonna give me money. That's not what it was about. What it was about was power and control. And once that Jeffrey Epstein had you caught up in a situation like this, well, he could manipulate that situation and. And maneuver that situation into something that ends up being beneficial to him. And that is why he wanted to have all of these relationships with all of these people. And another fact that most people seem to miss or don't bother talking about is all of the scientists that he was working with, how many of them were working on private projects? How many of them were working on classified projects? And how much of that information found its way into Epstein's hands and then into the hands of whoever the hell his handler was? I'm guessing a whole lot of it. Because at the end of the day, Jeffrey Epstein understood that information was the most valuable asset that he had to do what he wanted to do, and that was to continue on with his. And the more powerful people that he had under his thumb, the more powerful people he had roped in, the better off he was as far as not getting caught or not getting prosecuted anyway for the he was up to. And the fact that Bill Gates was being pressed by Epstein really should not come as a surprise to anybody. And the reason that he used underage girls is because people can survive a scandal of cheating on their wife these days, right? It's not like it used to be. If you cheat on your wife or your husband or whatever, your career is over. That's not the case anymore. So traditional honeypot schemes, they don't work as well. But when you're talking about children, right, what is the one crime that no lawyer is going to get you off on? What's the one crime that there's no coming back from? Really? Well, hurting children, having relations with underage girls when you're one of these big, powerful people. So once Epstein had that all set up and these dudes were engaging in that, that's a lot different than having regular compromise on somebody. Oh, you cheated on your wife. Oh, you like to drink bourbon and watch My Little Pony porno in your bedroom. All right, fine. Do whatever you want. Right? We can overlook most things, but when it comes to children, that's one thing that cannot be overlooked. And once you get caught up in a spider web that consists of hurting children or underage girls, if somebody is trying to press you, well, they have you, right? You're done for at that point. Because if they expose the fact that you're having relations with a child, then the party most certainly is over. And it doesn't matter really how rich you are at that point because there's going to be such an outcry that the Department of Justice is going to be forced into action just like they were with Epstein the second time around. So compromise has always been a huge part of Epstein's playbook. But it's all about control. Remember, that's what this is all about. What? Whether it was the girls who were being abused or the people who were getting caught up in the spider web, Epstein had to be in control. And that's what it all came down to. Today we have an article from the Wall Street Journal talking about this subject. Headline, Jeffrey Epstein Appeared to threaten Bill Gates over Microsoft Founders affair. This story was authored by Khadijah Safdar and Emily Glaser. Now if you want to take the devil's advocate approach, is Bill Gates leaking this stuff out to the Wall Street Journal to try and make it look like he was manipulated? Let's remember who we're dealing with here. This is a very smart, supposedly and shrewd individual. So would he be opposed to running some kind of counter narrative and using the media for his own purposes, willingly or not? You know, leaking things to the Wall Street Journal, them thinking they have a story. But what's really going on is it's the first leg of Bill Gates new defense plan. Maybe I'm just cynical, but I'm always on the lookout for the okie doke from these people at this point. How many times are we gonna let them lie to us or manipulate us? I'm done with it. I don't care how many zeros you have in your bank account. Jeffrey Epstein discovered that Bill Gates had an affair with a Russian bridge player and later appeared to to use his knowledge to threaten one of the world's richest men. According to people familiar with the matter, 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 people familiar with the matter. Well, that sounds like Epstein too. Dude was cheap as the day is long, and the only time he was getting separated from a coin or two is when he was paying somebody off or when that coin or two was gonna multiply into five. The email came after the convicted sex offender had struggled and failed to convince Gaetz to participate in multi billion dollar charitable fund that Epstein tried to establish, which with JP Morgan Chase. You see what I'm talking about here? Again, maybe I'm just being cynical, but this seems like a pretty well timed story to try and explain away Bill Gates relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and set it up like he was some kind of victim. I don't buy that for a minute. And honestly, I don't accept that narrative. The implication behind the message, according to people who have viewed it, was that Epstein could reveal the affair if. If Gates didn't keep up an association between the two men. Mr. Gates met with Epstein solely for philanthropic purposes. Having failed repeatedly to draw Mr. Gates beyond these matters, Epstein tried unsuccessfully to leverage a past relationship to threaten Mr. Gates, said a spokeswoman for Gates. All right, so that's exactly what this is. This is a PR run for Bill Gates, and he's trying to get out in front of this and. And acting like he's the victim. This is a shrewd strategy. And this is a strategy, honestly, that dumbass Prince Andrew should have employed from the very beginning. And after he had that settlement. This is what I said. I wouldn't say it beforehand. I didn't want to help the idiot out. But after, when he took that settlement, the dumbest thing he ever did was not tell anybody that he was being blackmailed by Epstein. Who would deny it? Epstein's dead, right? That would have been the best defense to use. I was being blackmailed. I had no idea about any of this. My only crime is that I'm dumb. But he didn't go that route. Bill Gates, on the other hand, a little smarter than the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. Unfortunately for Bill Gates, we're seeing through this transparency. Epstein was accused in 2006 of sexually abusing girls as young as 14 and pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution. No such thing as a minor being a prostitute. Maybe if you lived in the year. Oh, I don't know, 900 AD or something. But in the real world, in today's society, a child can't be a prostitute because they can't consent. So how can a 14 year old be a prostitute? Just because somebody gives them money doesn't make them a prostitute. And, and I can't even believe that I have to reiterate that every time we talk about this subject in any society, anywhere in the world, a 14 year old child should not be with an adult. Now if you want to talk about a 16 year old with a 19 year old, that's a conversation that can be had, right? They were in high school together at the same time. That's a different story. That's all kinds of gray area. We're talking about rich ass scions of business, powerful politicians hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and having relations with little girls, 14, 15 years old. That's a whole nother level of evil, folks. And all of these scumbags that were involved in it need to be exposed. He spent time in a Florida jail and registered as a sex offender, if you want to call it that. He didn't have to register in New Mexico, spent hardly any time in jail. And even in New York, the prosecutor's office argued in court that Epstein shouldn't be a Schedule 3 pedophile after the Miami Herald reported on dozens more women who said they were abused. He was arrested in 2019 on sex trafficking charges. He died later that year in jail while awaiting trial and what the medical examiner ruled was a suicide. And while I appreciate the Miami Herald and their reporting, as far as Epstein goes, where are they now? What? The story's over. George Mitchell shouldn't be looked into. What about Bill Richardson? What about the Pritzkers? What about Glenn Dubin? What about Les Wexner? So what's stopping all of these great investigative journalists from going deeper? Why did the story end at Alex Acosta? I guess that's the real question. Especially considering that Alex Acosta has a boss. And that boss, or those bosses certainly signed off on whatever bullshit this idiot was up to down in Florida. Because if you think that jackass had the ability to give that kind of deal to Epstein on his own, you got another thing coming. Gates, 67 years old, a technology advisor to Microsoft and one of its largest shareholders, has said he met with Epstein a few times only to discuss philanthropy, which he regrets and calls a mistake. You're one of the richest men in the world. What are you doing meeting with Epstein for philanthropy? You can't just pay for whatever you have to pay for on your own, or why not go to a solid source? Mark Cuban was busy. How about Elon Musk? How about any other of these rich people? So you choose Jeffrey Epstein, huh? And you want us to believe that it's just, you know, because he had good advice or because he had a couple of extra bucks? How many people in New York had more money than Jeffrey Epstein? And how many people around the country? A whole hell of a lot. So I don't buy that it was all about charity. Mila Anatonova, the Russian bridge player, declined to comment on Gates and said she didn't know who Epstein was when they first 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, she added, I am disgusted with Epstein and what he did and the fact that he paid for her schooling. And then she had an affair with Bill Gates. What do you think that was for? He wanted information. That's what Epstein did. He would have these girls sleep with powerful people, hoping they'd talk. He'd have the cameras on. He'd get a report from the girls when all was said and done, and then him and Glenn Maxwell, they'd build their compromise profile on, on these people. And once they had enough kompromat, the party was over. For whoever was caught up in the net. The new details about Epstein and Gates reveal a layer of complexity to their relationship and sheds new light on how Epstein operated in the years between his 2008 conviction and death. Epstein picked his days meeting with politicians, businessmen, academics, and celebrities. He provided favors and sought to use the connections for his own purposes. And when the relationship soured, he could turn against people. Well, yeah, that was the whole point. These weren't relationships. And all of these people that were going over to his house and hanging out with them to act like they had no idea who he was or what he was up to is just a straight up lie. And I refuse, refuse to accept it. If you were over at his house, especially after he was convicted, you knew what he was, you knew what he was up to, and you chose to go over there and partake in whatever the it was you were partaking in. And if you're one of these people who were was hanging out with them previously, to him being arrested and convicted, well, at the very least, you have some weak ground to stand on. But I don't think anyone's buying your story either, because everybody in New York at that level had at least a bit of knowledge about who Epstein was. What you think that these power brokers don't talk? They don't chitty chat with each other while they're playing golf and deciding the rest of our fate? Hell yeah they most certainly do. And if you think that all of these powerful business scions and tech executives and the rest of them don't have security teams that vet people they're having meetings with, well I don't know what to tell you because they do. So anytime you hear one of these real powerful people talk about they have no idea who they were meeting with they are telling you a straight up lie. All right folks that's gonna end part one of this episode and this article and in the next episode we're gonna pick up where we left off and keep the conversation about Bill Gates rolling.
