Bill Gates admitted having two affairs with Russian women which Jeffrey Epstein knew about. In a town hall meeting on Tuesday, the Microsoft co-founder told his team at the Gates Foundation that he had made mistakes, but insisted he “did nothing illicit. “I did have affairs, one with a Russian bridge player who met me at bridge events, and one with a Russian nuclear physicist who I met through business activities,” he had told staff, according to The Wall Street Journal. In an email Epstein sent to himself that was made public in January, the paedophile claimed that Mr Gates caught a sexually transmitted infection after sleeping with “Russian girls”. The email also claimed the Microsoft founder asked Epstein for antibiotics he could “surreptitiously give” to his then-wife, Melinda.
