Latest / Beyond The Horizon / Epstein, The Russian Bridge Player And The Attempt To Blackmail Bill Gates (Part 1)
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: What's up everyone and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
- 0:06Speaker 1: Bill Gates is once again being thrust into the Jeffrey
- 0:10Speaker 1: Epstein spotlight. And this time there's reports coming out of
- 0:13Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal saying that Bill Gates was being
- 0:16Speaker 1: blackmailed by Jeffrey Epstein. And for those of you who
- 0:20Speaker 1: have been following along with the story for all of
- 0:22Speaker 1: these years, you know that this is not breaking news.
- 0:26Speaker 1: This is exactly how it works. Now, people will tell
- 0:29Speaker 1: you that blackmail was not a big deal with Jeffrey Epstein. Well,
- 0:33Speaker 1: maybe not in the traditional sense, right? Not the blackmail of, okay, look,
- 0:38Speaker 1: I'm going to rat you out and you're going to
- 0:39Speaker 1: give me money. That's not what it was about. What
- 0:42Speaker 1: it was about was power and control. And once Jeffrey
- 0:47Speaker 1: Epstein had you caught up in a situation like this, well,
- 0:50Speaker 1: he could manipulate that situation and maneuver that situation into
- 0:54Speaker 1: something that ends up being beneficial to him. And that
- 0:58Speaker 1: is why he wanted to have all of these relationships
- 1:01Speaker 1: with all of these people. And another fact that most
- 1:04Speaker 1: people seem to miss or don't bother talking about is
- 1:08Speaker 1: all of the scientists that he was working with, how
- 1:11Speaker 1: many of them were working on private projects? How many
- 1:14Speaker 1: of them were working on classified projects? And how much
- 1:17Speaker 1: of that information found its way into Epstein's hands and
- 1:21Speaker 1: then into the hands of whoever the hell his handler was?
- 1:25Speaker 1: I'm guessing a whole lot of it. Because at the
- 1:27Speaker 1: end of the day, Jeffrey Epstein understood that information was
- 1:31Speaker 1: the most valuable asset that he had to do what
- 1:35Speaker 1: he wanted to do. And that was to continue on
- 1:38Speaker 1: with his bullshit. And the more powerful people that he
- 1:41Speaker 1: had under his thumb, the more powerful people he had
- 1:44Speaker 1: roped in, the better off he was as far as
- 1:48Speaker 1: not getting caught or not getting prosecuted anyway for the
- 1:51Speaker 1: bullshit he was up to. And the fact that Bill
- 1:54Speaker 1: Gates was being pressed by Epstein really should not come
- 1:58Speaker 1: as a surprise to anybody. And the reason that he
- 2:01Speaker 1: used underage girls is because people can survive a scandal
- 2:05Speaker 1: of cheating on their wife these days, right? It's not
- 2:08Speaker 1: like it used to be. If you cheat on your
- 2:10Speaker 1: wife or your husband or whatever, your career is over.
- 2:13Speaker 1: That's not the case anymore. So traditional honeypot schemes, they
- 2:16Speaker 1: don't work as well. But when you're talking about children, right?
- 2:20Speaker 1: What is the one crime that no lawyer is going
- 2:23Speaker 1: to get you off on? What's the one crime that
- 2:25Speaker 1: there's no coming back from really? Well, hurting children, having
- 2:29Speaker 1: relations with underage girls when you're one of these big,
- 2:32Speaker 1: powerful people. So once Epstein had that all set up
- 2:36Speaker 1: and these dudes were engaging in that, that's a lot
- 2:39Speaker 1: different than having regular compromise on somebody. Oh, you cheated
- 2:43Speaker 1: on your wife. Oh, you like to drink bourbon and
- 2:45Speaker 1: watch my little pony porno in your bedroom. all right, fine,
- 2:49Speaker 1: do whatever you want, right? We can overlook most things.
- 2:52Speaker 1: But when it comes to children, that's one thing that
- 2:55Speaker 1: cannot be overlooked. And once you get caught up in
- 2:59Speaker 1: a spider web that consists of hurting children or underage girls,
- 3:05Speaker 1: if somebody is trying to press you, well, they have you, right?
- 3:08Speaker 1: You're done for at that point because if they expose
- 3:11Speaker 1: the fact that you're having relations with a child, then
- 3:15Speaker 1: the party most certainly is over. And it doesn't matter, really,
- 3:18Speaker 1: how rich you are at that point, because there's going
- 3:21Speaker 1: to be such an outcry that the Department of Justice
- 3:24Speaker 1: is going to be forced into action, just like they
- 3:26Speaker 1: were with Epstein the second time around. So compromise has
- 3:30Speaker 1: always been a huge part of Epstein's playbook, but it's
- 3:33Speaker 1: all about control. Remember, that's what this is all about.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Whether it was the girls who were being abused or
- 3:39Speaker 1: the people who were getting caught up in the spider web,
- 3:42Speaker 1: Epstein had to be in control. And that's what it
- 3:45Speaker 1: all came down to. Today, we have an article from
- 3:48Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal talking about this subject. Headline, Jeffrey
- 3:53Speaker 1: Epstein appeared to threaten Bill Gates over Microsoft founders affair.
- 3:59Speaker 1: This story was authored by Khadija Safdar and Emily Glazer. Now,
- 4:04Speaker 1: if you want to take the devil's advocate approach, is
- 4:07Speaker 1: Bill Gates leaking this stuff out to the Wall Street
- 4:10Speaker 1: Journal to try and make it look like he was manipulated?
- 4:14Speaker 1: Let's remember who we're dealing with here. This is a
- 4:17Speaker 1: very smart, supposedly, and shrewd individual. So would he be
- 4:22Speaker 1: opposed to running some kind of counter-narrative and using the
- 4:25Speaker 1: media for his own purposes, willingly or not? You know,
- 4:28Speaker 1: leaking things to the Wall Street Journal, them thinking they
- 4:31Speaker 1: have a story. But what's really going on is it's
- 4:34Speaker 1: the first leg of Bill Gates' new defense plan. Maybe
- 4:37Speaker 1: I'm just cynical, but I'm always on the lookout for
- 4:40Speaker 1: the okey-doke from these people at this point. How many
- 4:43Speaker 1: times are we going to let them lie to us
- 4:45Speaker 1: or manipulate us? I'm done with it. I don't care
- 4:47Speaker 1: how many zeros you have in your bank account. Jeffrey
- 4:51Speaker 1: Epstein discovered that Bill Gates had an affair with a
- 4:54Speaker 1: Russian bridge player and later appeared to use his knowledge
- 4:58Speaker 1: to threaten one of the world's richest men, according to
- 5:01Speaker 1: people familiar with the matter. The Microsoft co-founder met the
- 5:06Speaker 1: woman around 2010. when she was in her 20s. Epstein
- 5:10Speaker 1: met her in 2013 and later paid for her to
- 5:14Speaker 1: attend software coding school. In 2017, Epstein emailed Gates and
- 5:20Speaker 1: asked to be reimbursed for the cost of the course,
- 5:24Speaker 1: according to people familiar with the matter. Well, that sounds
- 5:26Speaker 1: like Epstein, too. Dude was cheap as the day is long,
- 5:30Speaker 1: and the only time he was getting separated from a
- 5:32Speaker 1: coin or two is when he was paying somebody off
- 5:35Speaker 1: or when that coin or two was going to multiply
- 5:37Speaker 1: into five. The email came after the convicted sex offender
- 5:41Speaker 1: had struggled and failed to convince Gates to participate in
- 5:45Speaker 1: a multi-billion dollar charitable fund that Epstein tried to establish
- 5:50Speaker 1: with JPMorgan Chase. You see what I'm talking about here? Again,
- 5:53Speaker 1: maybe I'm just being cynical, but this seems like a
- 5:56Speaker 1: pretty well-timed story to try and explain away Bill Gates'
- 6:00Speaker 1: relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and set it up like he
- 6:03Speaker 1: was some kind of victim. I don't buy that for
- 6:05Speaker 1: a minute, and honestly, I don't accept that narrative. The
- 6:09Speaker 1: implication behind the message, according to people who have viewed it,
- 6:13Speaker 1: was that Epstein could reveal the affair if Gates didn't
- 6:16Speaker 1: keep up an association between the two men. Mr. Gates
- 6:21Speaker 1: met with Epstein solely for philanthropic purposes. Having failed repeatedly
- 6:26Speaker 1: to draw Mr. Gates beyond these matters, Epstein tried unsuccessfully
- 6:31Speaker 1: to leverage a past relationship to threaten Mr. Gates. Set
- 6:35Speaker 1: a spokeswoman for Gates? All right, so that's exactly what
- 6:37Speaker 1: this is. This is a PR run for Bill Gates,
- 6:41Speaker 1: and he's trying to get out in front of this
- 6:42Speaker 1: and acting like he's the victim. This is a shrewd strategy.
- 6:47Speaker 1: And this is a strategy, honestly, that dumbass Prince Andrew
- 6:50Speaker 1: should have employed from the very beginning. And after he
- 6:53Speaker 1: had that settlement, this is what I said. I wouldn't
- 6:55Speaker 1: say it beforehand. I didn't want to help the idiot out.
- 6:58Speaker 1: But after, when he took that settlement, the dumbest thing
- 7:02Speaker 1: he ever did was not tell anybody that he was
- 7:05Speaker 1: being blackmailed by Epstein. Who would deny it? Epstein's dead, right?
- 7:10Speaker 1: That would have been the best defense to use. I
- 7:12Speaker 1: was being blackmailed. I had no idea about any of this.
- 7:15Speaker 1: My only crime is that I'm dumb. But he didn't
- 7:19Speaker 1: go that route. Bill Gates, on the other hand, a
- 7:21Speaker 1: little smarter than the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Unfortunately for Bill Gates, we're seeing through this transparency. Epstein
- 7:30Speaker 1: was accused in 2006 of sexually abusing girls as young
- 7:35Speaker 1: as 14. and pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting and
- 7:39Speaker 1: procuring a minor for prostitution. No such thing as a
- 7:43Speaker 1: minor being a prostitute. Maybe if you lived in the year, oh,
- 7:46Speaker 1: I don't know, 900... AD or something, but in the
- 7:50Speaker 1: real world, in today's society, a child can't be a
- 7:54Speaker 1: prostitute because they can't consent. So how can a 14
- 7:57Speaker 1: year old be a prostitute? Just because somebody gives them
- 8:00Speaker 1: money doesn't make them a prostitute. And I can't even
- 8:03Speaker 1: believe that I have to reiterate that every time we
- 8:06Speaker 1: talk about this subject. In any society, anywhere in the world,
- 8:10Speaker 1: a 14 year old child should not be with an adult. Now,
- 8:13Speaker 1: if you want to talk about a 16 year old
- 8:14Speaker 1: with a 19 year old, That's a conversation that can
- 8:18Speaker 1: be had, right? They were in high school together at
- 8:19Speaker 1: the same time. That's a different story. That's all kinds
- 8:22Speaker 1: of gray area. We're talking about rich ass scions of business,
- 8:27Speaker 1: powerful politicians hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein and having relations
- 8:33Speaker 1: with little girls, 14, 15 years old. That's a whole
- 8:36Speaker 1: nother level of evil folks. And all of these scumbags
- 8:39Speaker 1: that were involved in it need to be exposed. He
- 8:42Speaker 1: spent time in a Florida jail and registered as a
- 8:45Speaker 1: sex offender, if you want to call it that. He
- 8:47Speaker 1: didn't have to register in New Mexico, spent hardly any
- 8:50Speaker 1: time in jail, and even in New York, the prosecutor's
- 8:53Speaker 1: office argued in court that Epstein shouldn't be a Schedule
- 8:57Speaker 1: III pedophile. After the Miami Herald reported on dozens more
- 9:02Speaker 1: women who said they were abused, he was arrested in
- 9:05Speaker 1: 2019 on sex trafficking charges. He died later that year
- 9:09Speaker 1: in jail while awaiting trial, and what the medical examiner
- 9:12Speaker 1: ruled was a suicide. And while I appreciate the Miami
- 9:16Speaker 1: Herald and their reporting, as far as Epstein goes, where
- 9:20Speaker 1: are they now? What, the story's over? George Mitchell shouldn't
- 9:24Speaker 1: be looked into? What about Bill Richardson? What about the Pritzkers?
- 9:27Speaker 1: What about Glenn Dubin? What about Les Wexner? So what's
- 9:31Speaker 1: stopping all of these great investigative journalists from going deeper?
- 9:36Speaker 1: Why did the story end at Alex Acosta? I guess
- 9:38Speaker 1: that's the real question. Especially considering that Alex Acosta has
- 9:43Speaker 1: a boss and that boss or those bosses certainly signed
- 9:47Speaker 1: off on whatever bullshit this idiot was up to down
- 9:50Speaker 1: in Florida. Because if you think that jackass had the
- 9:53Speaker 1: ability to give that kind of deal to Epstein on
- 9:56Speaker 1: his own, you got another thing coming. Gates said, 67
- 10:00Speaker 1: years old, a technology advisor to Microsoft and one of
- 10:04Speaker 1: its largest shareholders, has said he met with Epstein a
- 10:07Speaker 1: few times only to discuss philanthropy, which he regrets and
- 10:11Speaker 1: calls a mistake. You're one of the richest men in
- 10:13Speaker 1: the world. What are you doing meeting with Epstein for philanthropy?
- 10:17Speaker 1: You can't just pay for whatever you have to pay
- 10:19Speaker 1: for on your own, or why not go to a
- 10:21Speaker 1: solid source? Well, Mark Cuban was busy. How about Elon Musk?
- 10:26Speaker 1: How about any other of these rich people? So you
- 10:28Speaker 1: choose Jeffrey Epstein, huh? And you want us to believe
- 10:30Speaker 1: that it's just, you know, because he had good advice,
- 10:34Speaker 1: or because he had a couple of extra bucks? How
- 10:37Speaker 1: many people in New York had more money than Jeffrey Epstein?
- 10:40Speaker 1: How many people around the country? A whole hell of
- 10:43Speaker 1: a lot. So I don't buy that it was all
- 10:45Speaker 1: about charity. Mila Anitonova, the Russian bridge player, declined to
- 10:50Speaker 1: comment on Gates and said she didn't know who Epstein
- 10:53Speaker 1: was when they first met. I had no idea that
- 10:57Speaker 1: he was a criminal or had any ulterior motive, she said,
- 11:01Speaker 1: of Epstein. I just thought he was a successful businessman
- 11:05Speaker 1: and wanted to help, she added. I am disgusted with
- 11:08Speaker 1: Epstein and what he did and the fact that he
- 11:10Speaker 1: paid for her schooling and then she had an affair
- 11:13Speaker 1: with Bill Gates. What do you think that was for?
- 11:17Speaker 1: He wanted information. That's what Epstein did. He would have
- 11:20Speaker 1: these girls sleep with powerful people, hoping they'd talk. He'd
- 11:24Speaker 1: have the cameras on. He'd get a report from the
- 11:26Speaker 1: girls when all was said and done. And then, him
- 11:29Speaker 1: and Glenn Maxwell, they'd build their compromise profile on these people.
- 11:34Speaker 1: And once they had enough compromise, the party was over
- 11:37Speaker 1: for whoever was caught up in the net. The new
- 11:40Speaker 1: details about Epstein and Gates reveal a layer of complexity
- 11:44Speaker 1: to their relationship and sheds new light on how Epstein operated.
- 11:48Speaker 1: In the years between his 2008 conviction and death, Epstein
- 11:53Speaker 1: picked his days meeting with politicians, businessmen, academics, and celebrities.
- 11:59Speaker 1: He provided favors and sought to use the connections for
- 12:02Speaker 1: his own purposes. And when the relationship soured, He could
- 12:06Speaker 1: turn against people. Well, yeah, that was the whole point.
- 12:09Speaker 1: These weren't relationships, and all of these people that were
- 12:12Speaker 1: going over to his house and hanging out with him
- 12:15Speaker 1: to act like they had no idea who he was
- 12:17Speaker 1: or what he was up to is just a straight-up lie,
- 12:20Speaker 1: and I refuse, refuse to accept it. If you were
- 12:24Speaker 1: over at his house, especially after he was convicted, you
- 12:28Speaker 1: knew what he was, you knew what he was up to,
- 12:30Speaker 1: and you chose to go over there and partake in
- 12:34Speaker 1: whatever the fuck it was you were partaking in. And
- 12:38Speaker 1: if you're one of these people who was hanging out
- 12:40Speaker 1: with him previously to him being arrested and convicted, well,
- 12:44Speaker 1: at the very least, you have some weak ground to
- 12:46Speaker 1: stand on. But I don't think anyone's buying your story either.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Because everybody in New York at that level had at
- 12:54Speaker 1: least a bit of knowledge about who Epstein was. What,
- 12:57Speaker 1: you think that these power brokers don't talk? They don't
- 13:01Speaker 1: chitty chat with each other while they're playing golf and
- 13:04Speaker 1: deciding the rest of our fate. Hell yeah, they most
- 13:08Speaker 1: certainly do. And if you think that all of these
- 13:11Speaker 1: powerful business scions and tech executives and the rest of
- 13:15Speaker 1: them don't have security teams that vet people they're having
- 13:18Speaker 1: meetings with, well, I don't know what to tell you
- 13:20Speaker 1: because they do. So anytime you hear one of these
- 13:23Speaker 1: real powerful people talk about they have no idea who
- 13:26Speaker 1: they were meeting with, they are telling you a straight
- 13:29Speaker 1: up lie. All right, folks, that's going to end part
- 13:32Speaker 1: one of this episode and this article and in the
- 13:35Speaker 1: next episode, we're going to pick up where we left
- 13:37Speaker 1: off and keep the conversation about Bill Gates rolling. All
- 13:42Speaker 1: of the information that goes with the episode can be
- 13:44Speaker 1: found in the description box.
