Bill Gates Speaks Out About His Relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, 'seeking money, not sechs'

[Western Journal] Microsoft Corporation co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates says he was not looking for love in all the wrong places when he hung out with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Only money.

"It was a huge mistake to spend time with him, to give him the credibility of being there," Gates said during an interview with CNN on Wednesday, when the subject of their palling around was broached.

Gates told CNN host Anderson Cooper that connecting with Epstein, who was facing accusations of sex trafficking when he died in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019, was a high-minded attempt to secure funding for his health care projects.

"I had several dinners with him, you know, hoping that what he said about getting billions of philanthropy for global health through contacts that he had might emerge," Gates said.

#1 Absolutely shocking. I was certain it had something to do with their mutual love of philately, model railroading, or gourmet cooking.

And there I am, wrong again.

#2 Because poor Bill has none of his own?

#3 So in the end it was ‘for the children’. Oh wait. That did not sound good.

The fact that even Bill’s wife bailed on him should be a big sign that Bill should just go off grid and out of sight; his money can keep him out of jail but not away from public scorn.

#4 Gates trying to clean up the image a bit? Anderson Cooper most likely says: "Might as well close the books on that issue; that's good enough for me."

What do some of the others say who were involved in this say?
