Bill Gates Tells Congress That Epstein Tried to Blackmail Him (6/11/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
• 0:03
  Epstein Chronicles. Back in twenty twenty five, the FBI and
• 0:08
  coordination with the DOJ released a memo telling us that
• 0:13
  there was nothing left to investigate when it comes to
• 0:16
  Jeffrey Epstein and that nobody was blackmailed. And this is
• 0:21
  exactly what it said. This systematic review revealed no incriminating
• 0:25
  client list. There was no credible evidence found that Epstein
• 0:29
  blackmail prominent individuals as part of his actions. We did
• 0:33
  not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged
• 0:38
  third parties. Well, fast forward to yesterday and Bill Gates
• 0:43
  and his congressional appearance, and he had something else to say,
• 0:47
  and according to him, he was blackmailed by Jeffrey Epstein.
• 0:51
  So if what Bill Gates is saying is true, then
• 0:54
  that means that Cash Betel, Pam Bondi, and Todd Blanche
• 0:58
  have all perjured themselves. And I don't think that's even
• 1:01
  a debate now. If Bill Gates is telling the truth,
• 1:05
  then Pam Bondi, Cash Betel, Todd Blanche, and anybody else
• 1:09
  from the FBI or DJ that has told us that
• 1:12
  nobody was black meld has lied to us. And while
• 1:15
  all of us know that, there's a lot of people
• 1:17
  out here that aren't hip to the whole story, and
• 1:20
  they don't know, you know, who's telling the truth and
• 1:22
  who's not. They start hearing things like there's nobody that
• 1:26
  was black meled coming from the head of the FBI,
• 1:29
  and people are gonna believe it. And look, we all
• 1:32
  knew that Cash, Battel and Pambondi and Todd Blanche we're
• 1:35
  telling us lies back then, but now this is proof.
• 1:40
  So either Bill Gates lied and perjured himself or Bondi, Patel,
• 1:44
  and Blanche perjured themselves. I mean, both things can't be true, right,
• 1:49
  So what's James Comer gonna do? My guess, absolutely nothing.
• 1:54
  Today's article is from the New York Post and the
• 1:56
  headline bill Gates tells Congress Jeffrey Epstein affairs as leverage
• 2:01
  to keep the billionaire close. This article was authored by
• 2:05
  Josh Christensen and Ali Goles. Microsoft co founder Bill Gates
• 2:12
  claimed in a Capitol Hill hearing on Wednesday that Jeffrey
• 2:14
  Epstein used gates marital infidelities as leverage to keep the
• 2:18
  billionaire in Epstein's circle. Somebody better tell Cash but tell
• 2:23
  I mean, if you can find them, maybe check Valhalla
• 2:26
  or whatever. But somebody might want to tell them. Maybe
• 2:29
  somebody should tell Pam Bondy that she should be worried
• 2:31
  about this and not the DOW because, folks, it's obvious
• 2:37
  that there is a cover up under away, and that
• 2:39
  cover up is being managed by the DOJ. It's been
• 2:44
  ordered by the White House, but it's being managed by
• 2:47
  the DOJ. And it's rather obvious at this point. And
• 2:50
  if that's not true and that's not happening, then they're
• 2:53
  gonna charge Bill Gates with perjury right. In an opening
• 2:58
  statement before the House Oversight Committee, Gates denied all knowledge
• 3:02
  of the deceased pedophile's criminal conduct, but admitted associating with
• 3:05
  Epstein to further his global philanthropic goals between twenty eleven
• 3:10
  and twenty fourteen. And I know I've said it a
• 3:12
  million times, but you really need Epstein's money. Of all
• 3:15
  the people in the world got to get money from Epstein,
• 3:17
  sounds like a bunch of junk to me. I never
• 3:22
  went to his island, his ranch, or his Florida home.
• 3:25
  I have never victimized anyone, he said, while he may
• 3:28
  have sought to foster a personal relationship. I was never
• 3:31
  interested in that and never reciprocated. That's not all your
• 3:34
  wife said. Everything was about business. That's all you guys
• 3:39
  ever talked about ever, just like Howard Lutnik, never heard
• 3:42
  anything or saw anything living next door? How about your
• 3:46
  ring cameras, buddy? How about your surveillance, Howard Lutnik? Can
• 3:50
  we see that? Who was coming and going? Who went
• 3:53
  into Epstein's house? Who left? Oh? That's all deleted? Right,
• 3:57
  you don't keep that footage? And Bill Gates is over
• 4:00
  talking about it. Was never reciprocated the relationship. Maybe you
• 4:04
  want to tell your ex wife. But Gates also disclosed
• 4:07
  that Epstein learned of him having been unfaithful in my
• 4:10
  marriage and sought to use the information about my infidelities
• 4:14
  in addition to the many lies that he layered on
• 4:17
  top to pressure me to re engage with him. Well,
• 4:20
  how did he learn about the affairs? Bill? Could it
• 4:23
  be that he played the middleman and hooked you up?
• 4:27
  I know that couldn't be possible, right, You would never
• 4:30
  utilize somebody like Epstein to meet a woman, right, Bill?
• 4:33
  He was unsuccessful in this effort, But it shows some
• 4:35
  of the ways he tried to leverage his interactions with
• 4:38
  me to further his agenda. Gates added, So if he
• 4:41
  did that to Bill Gates, do you really think that
• 4:43
  nobody else was being blackmailed? And all the people out
• 4:47
  here that were telling you that that was just overblown,
• 4:50
  that that never happened, that there's no evidence of it,
• 4:53
  Well they look pretty fucking dumb, now, don't they. They
• 4:59
  won't admit it, they'll just move the goalposts. But the
• 5:02
  truth is right here for anyone who's really willing to look.
• 5:05
  And the people who refuse to admit what's going on
• 5:07
  or what was going on, they're telling on themselves. In February,
• 5:13
  the computer whiz had confessed to employees at the Gates
• 5:15
  Foundation that he engaged in two extra marital affairs with
• 5:20
  Russian women, at least one of whom appears to have
• 5:22
  been used by Jeffrey Epstein to attempt to extort money
• 5:26
  from Gates. Gates also reportedly acknowledged that he had been
• 5:31
  accused of more than twenty extra marital liaisons during divorce
• 5:35
  proceedings from his ex wife, Melinda French Gates. So he
• 5:40
  was obviously a womanizer, okay, mister pocket protector himself never
• 5:45
  got late in high school. We all know that one
• 5:47
  of those dudes a late bloomer, if you will, And
• 5:51
  once he got a little bit of dough and women
• 5:53
  started looking at him, it was on. So you mean
• 5:57
  to tell me that all he ever talked about with
• 5:59
  Jeffrey Epstein was charity, because that's bullshit. We know that
• 6:05
  Jeffrey Epstein talked about sex all the time, all day.
• 6:09
  So Bill Gates can go and try and bullshit somebody else.
• 6:14
  I see now that Epstein sought to build an image
• 6:16
  of legitimacy around himself, using connections to reputable and powerful
• 6:20
  people to deflect scrutiny and attempt to rehabilitate his reputation.
• 6:25
  Gates also said in his statement, well, you guys already
• 6:29
  knew what he was, and you still let him in,
• 6:31
  you sought him out. All these people are trying to
• 6:33
  rewrite history like they were just, you know, along for
• 6:37
  the ride, like they were all manipulated, like they had
• 6:40
  no idea that Jeffrey Epstein was already a sexual predator.
• 6:45
  They think you're stupid, That's really what it comes down to.
• 6:48
  Either that or you're so deep in your political bunker
• 6:52
  that you won't care. I was so focused on the
• 6:56
  possibility of raising funds for global health that I allowed
• 7:00
  that goal to override my better judgment. Who believes that,
• 7:04
  I mean, honestly, who believes that this man has more
• 7:07
  money than God? You need to go and seek out
• 7:10
  Jeffrey Epstein, who's not even a billionaire. My guess is
• 7:13
  you were seeking him out as a way to bundle
• 7:16
  your money. How can I hide this money? How can
• 7:19
  I pay less taxes? Where can I move it? What
• 7:22
  should I buy? Who should I talk to? Oh? I
• 7:24
  got the guy, Jeffrey Epstein. Gates were restrained grin as
• 7:30
  he entered and exited his interview with the Oversight Committee,
• 7:34
  pausing before his interview only to say, I hope my
• 7:36
  testimony is helpful to the important work of the committee
• 7:39
  to find justice for the victims. Oh, you care so
• 7:42
  much about them, Bill? Why haven't you ever reached out?
• 7:46
  Why didn't you go and speak to the FBI after
• 7:48
  Epstein was arrested. Why didn't you tell somebody that Epstein
• 7:52
  was blackmailing you. Representative Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on
• 7:57
  the panel, told reporters during a break in the grid
• 8:00
  that Gates comments on Epstein betrayed a theme of blackmail
• 8:04
  and Epstein using his power of information against others. Well, yeah,
• 8:10
  that was part of his operation, a compromunt operation, not
• 8:13
  on everybody, but on people like Gates. Oversight chairman James Comer.
• 8:19
  The Gomer stressed that the committee was not accusing Bill
• 8:22
  Gates of any wrongdoing, but we're interested in hearing more
• 8:24
  about the philanthropist's relationship with Epstein, as well as the
• 8:28
  financiers convicted accomplice Glenn Maxwell. Well, James Comer wouldn't want to,
• 8:34
  you know, accuse anybody of anything, not even Epstein. But
• 8:39
  you want to ruin people's reputations. How dare you look
• 8:42
  at all those allegations in core documents? How dare you
• 8:45
  look at all those allegations made during depositions under oath.
• 8:51
  Emails and photos released by the Justice Department, In addition
• 8:54
  to remarks by Melinda French Gates about Epstein having contributed
• 8:58
  to the dissolution of a couple's twenty seven year marriage
• 9:02
  have complicated the image Gates has sought to cultivate as
• 9:05
  the leader of one of the world's largest private charitable foundations. Well,
• 9:10
  that's what they do. They wrap themselves in the armor
• 9:13
  of charity. That way, later on down the line, they
• 9:16
  can use it as an excuse. Look, I gave so
• 9:18
  much money, how could you possibly think I'm capable of this. Meanwhile,
• 9:24
  the money they're giving is a drop in the bucket.
• 9:28
  Do you know how much money Bill Gates has? Do
• 9:30
  you really think he needs Jeffrey Epstein's money. Epstein drafted
• 9:34
  one email salaciously claiming that Gates had asked for the
• 9:37
  financiers help in order to deal with the consequences of
• 9:40
  sex with Russian girls, which the philanthropist rep called absolutely
• 9:44
  absurd and completely false. I believe that he did ask Epstein.
• 9:49
  Epstein was known as a fixer. Remember in pulp fiction
• 9:53
  The Wolf, that's Jeffrey Epstein. But with finances and reputation laundering.
• 9:59
  That's where he did. That was his function. On Wednesday,
• 10:02
  Gates said he did not contract the sexually transmitted disease
• 10:06
  as a result of his dalliances and never tried to
• 10:09
  acquire drugs for that purpose. According to a source familiar
• 10:13
  with the interview, Now, like usual, I will caution, we
• 10:17
  have not seen the transcripts, so we have to go
• 10:20
  through those like usual, So he can get an hdview
• 10:23
  of what went on. Epstein also fumed in emails over
• 10:28
  gates dalliances with the two Russian women, bridge player Mille
• 10:33
  Antonova and former employee at Tara Power, a nuclear power company.
• 10:38
  The richest man in the world is so cheap, Epstein
• 10:41
  groused in a two thousand and seven message to Boris Nikolch,
• 10:44
  one of Gates's advisors at his foundation. His former bridge
• 10:48
  girl and toy lives on a friend sofa. At one point,
• 10:52
  Epstein threatened Gates with exposing Antonova affair due to Bill's
• 10:56
  refusal and joining a prospective philanthropic fund conceived by Epstein
• 11:01
  and JP morgan Chase executives. According to The Wall Street Journal,
• 11:06
  that money was never paid. Foundation reps have said. Epstein however,
• 11:11
  paid Antonova so she could attend a programming camp as
• 11:15
  part of her pursuing a career in software development. She
• 11:18
  told the Journal in twenty twenty three. One of Epstein's
• 11:21
  girls he brought over here, come on, can we stop
• 11:25
  the cap and the obviously middleman did for Bill Gates
• 11:30
  and then he was using that as leverage and blackmailt
• 11:32
  on Bill Gates. This shit is not that difficult. Nikolich
• 11:37
  apparently also knew the identity of a third woman who
• 11:40
  worked as a doctor and had an affair with Gates,
• 11:42
  but it's unclear whether Epstein was aware of the flame.
• 11:45
  The source added photos released by the DOJ show Gates
• 11:49
  with Epstein and other powerful men, including out of January
• 11:53
  twenty eleven dinner with banker Jess Daily and former Harvard
• 11:57
  University president Larry Summers at Epstein's Upper east Side townhouse. Uh,
• 12:02
  you know, the fellow travelers in all good buddies. But
• 12:07
  we were only talking about philanthropy. We were never talking
• 12:09
  about women. We were never talking about girls, and we
• 12:12
  certainly weren't talking about how to hide our money. Other
• 12:16
  images in the so called Epstein files, what does that mean?
• 12:20
  So called? What else are they if they're not files,
• 12:25
  show Gates posing with women whose faces are redacted. A
• 12:28
  person familiar with Wednesday's interview said the billionaire didn't know
• 12:32
  the identities of many of the women. Oh no, of
• 12:35
  course not. I had no idea. Richest guy in the
• 12:38
  world at the time, but I have no idea what's
• 12:40
  going on. Certainly not the smartest man in the room.
• 12:45
  Gates told the committee on Wednesday that He first met
• 12:47
  Epstein in twenty eleven and was promised billions of dollars
• 12:50
  for global health from the financiers, tax and estate services clients,
• 12:55
  but after a total of five meetings in person, Gates
• 12:58
  said the talks reached a dead end with no meaningful
• 13:01
  philanthropic support having been provided, causing him to cut off
• 13:05
  contact in December of twenty fourteen. So none of those
• 13:09
  other big time clients or buddies of yours could have
• 13:12
  helped you out. You know, somebody who was not a
• 13:14
  child molester. You couldn't find a criminal of the usual
• 13:19
  sort on Wall Street, you know, financial criminal whatever. Had
• 13:24
  to find the most vile man on earth to be
• 13:26
  part of your global charity. Lawmakers and staff on the
• 13:29
  Oversight Committee pressed further into the unlikely friendship as part
• 13:33
  of their fifteenth interview conducted in the Bipartisan Inquiry of
• 13:37
  the Notorious case. I recall being aware that Epstein had
• 13:40
  faced prior legal issues, but I did not fully understand
• 13:43
  the extent of the crimes he committed. Gates also said
• 13:47
  of Epstein's twenty eighteen guilty plea to Florida prostitution and
• 13:51
  child prostitution charges, a case that forced them to register
• 13:55
  as a sex offender. It's such a joke. Oh, we
• 13:59
  had no idea how it was. All you had to
• 14:01
  do was a brief Google look right, go search on
• 14:04
  Google real quick. And you know the thing is, they knew,
• 14:09
  they didn't care. A source familiar with the Gates interview
• 14:14
  said that he was aware of Epstein's conviction was related
• 14:17
  to sex crimes when the relationship began. Comer also told
• 14:22
  reporters he would next seek to ask Epstein's former criminal
• 14:25
  defense attorney, the law professor Alan Dershowitz, to interview with
• 14:29
  the oversight panel. I offered to testify as a witness,
• 14:33
  and I hope they take me up on that. Dershowitz
• 14:35
  told the Post on Wednesday, Well, didn't you just tell
• 14:38
  us Alan Dershowitz that Epstein had no blackmail information on
• 14:41
  anybody and he didn't use it. So it seems like
• 14:46
  you have some explaining to do as well. So yeah,
• 14:49
  you should be in front of Congress. The request followed
• 14:52
  an interview with the money manager's longtime assistant, Leslie Groff,
• 14:55
  as well as other victims or survivors of Epstein's abuse.
• 15:01
  Comer and Garcia have both suggested Acting Attorney General Todd
• 15:04
  blanch should return to answer questions about the DJ's release
• 15:08
  of around three million investigative files on Epstein. Gates recommended
• 15:13
  that the committee consult some former employees at his foundation,
• 15:17
  as well as Summers, to further the inquiry. Well, I
• 15:20
  can get down with that. Whoever can help further things along,
• 15:24
  I'm with it. The problem is, I don't trust the committee.
• 15:28
  There's no teeth, there's no enforcement, and they get dog
• 15:32
  walk time and time again by the DOJ. So until
• 15:35
  there's some real oversight here and until somebody actually gets
• 15:38
  in trouble for you know, lying, then in my opinion,
• 15:41
  it's just part of the cover up. The whole entire
• 15:45
  point of this committee, remember, was to try and exonerate
• 15:49
  Donald Trump. That's what they were trying to do. And
• 15:52
  the reason that everybody who signed off on that petition
• 15:56
  is out of office now besides Bobert, is because Donald
• 15:59
  Trump retaliated. And it shows you just how much of
• 16:04
  an issue this is for him and his administration. Has
• 16:07
  he acted like this with anything else? That should tell
• 16:10
  you the tell And as far as the Bill Gates
• 16:13
  testimony goes, if he's in fact telling the truth about
• 16:16
  the blackmail. That means that Cash, Patel, Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche,
• 16:20
  and the administration have all lied under oath, and that
• 16:23
  leaves us with one burning question. What's Congress gonna do
• 16:28
  about it? All right, folks, that's gonna do it for
• 16:31
  this one. All the information that goes with this episode
• 16:34
