Pedophile Jeffrey Epstein 'threatened to expose Bill Gates' 2010 affair with a Russian bridge player unless he continued to participate in a multibillion-dollar charitable fund'
[Daily Mail] Jeffrey Epstein used his knowledge of Bill Gates' 2010 affair with a Russian bridge player to threaten the Microsoft billionaire, a bombshell new report claims.

The pedophile, who "killed himself" in 2019, wanted Gates to participate in a multibillion-dollar charitable fund in 2017 and heavily implied that unless he did he would reveal his infidelity.
Ahem...about that "killed himself"..
Gates, who has said that bridge is one of his favorite hobbies, met player Mila Antonova at a tournament in 2010 and had an affair with her at around the same time, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.

Epstein met her later in 2013 when she was trying to raise money to start an online bridge platform. Though he didn't bankroll he project he did later pay for her to attend a software coding school.

The 'threat' was not made until 2017 when Epstein wrote to Gates asking for reimbursement for Antonova's coding school in a tone that implied he knew about the affair and could expose it.

[Here's a WSJ link to the story, but it's behind a pay wall.

#4 I'd love to have been a fly on the wall on the private jet carrying Epstein, Gates and Prince Andrew to the fantasy island.

#7 General Petraeus fell victim to a similar urge. No telling how far he might have risen in gov't had it not happened. I will always believe he was targeted for removal from the public stage, just as Gates may have also been targeted.

#8 Epstein Island was an all purpose vehicle. Good thing the FBI was able to recover all the tapes and lists when they sanitized it.
