Billionaire philanthropist Melinda French Gates has said her ex-husband, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, being named in new files relating to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein dredged up “painful times in my marriage”.
She told an NPR podcast she feels “unbelievable sadness” about the Epstein allegations and that the people named in the records, including her former husband, need to answer to it.
“I am so happy to be away from all the muck,” she said. The couple divorced in 2021 after 27 years of marriage.
Records released by the US justice department include an allegation by Epstein that Bill Gates caught a sexually transmitted disease. He has called the claim “absolutely absurd”.
The way she repeatedly emphasizes how far away she is from all of this makes me wonder how true that really is.
“Oh you know. My husband fucked some very young girls and I even got STD from it. But this is still no reason to talk about it publicly”.
Yes Melinda. You are protecting a pedophile. You are part of the problem.
So sympathy here for that bitch.

The most disgusting oxymoron I’ve read this morning
He spent a lot of his money to eradicate disease in other countries. I guess he was just offsetting himself.
No sympathy for her, because she pretended not to know anything until someone else told everyone.
If she had blew the whistle as soon as she found out it woupd be one thing.
But she covered for child rapists until everyone else found out, and now is legit trying to pass it off as “crazy, right?”
If she knew and kept her mouth shut for whatever reason, then she’s an accessory at least after the fact
Fuck all these billionaires who think the rules don’t apply to them and their friends.
She also had a big hand in fucking up the American school system for decades.
Stupid rich people used their wealth to purchase politicians and override the opinions of professional educators.
Fuck all these billionaires who think the rules don’t apply to them and their friends.
The rules apply to them? I’m yet to be shown otherwise.
You’ve never died either…
If you think that means you’re immortal, than you have consistent logic, but none of us should be listening to you…
The rules apply to them, it’s just no one is enforcing them. And since the oligarchs lost the DNC last year when the voting members finally picked a non-neoliberal chair, there’s not going to be anyone that can stop a progressive Dem from winning the primary, then the general, then actually enforcing the rules on the oligarchs
If you’ve never died, does that make you immortal…that’s the wrong thought exercise.
The rules apply to them, it’s just no one is enforcing them.
This is more like “a tree falls in the forest”.
If the rules aren’t enforced against them, then they absolutely do not apply to them.
This is a serious problem, when all three branches of government, are occupied by the trees. They need to be shown consequence, and it may have to be by hatchet, axe, and saw.
It’s cute that you think we will have elections in November, or that they will be free and fair.
If the rules aren’t enforced against them, then they absolutely do not apply to them
It’s not really a pedantic thing, but it kind of is.
The rules apply, if they didn’t they wouldn’t still give a fuck. They’d be having Epstein parties on the South lawn for everyone to see. If for no other reason than doing it in the open is more extreme than doing it in secret.
Currently consequences do not apply, because they’re not being held accountable.
But the rules do, or else they wouldn’t be hiding it. You think it’s shame that’s keeping trump from admitting all this shit? He’s afraid because there’s still a chance that consequences could show up, because the rules do still apply. They’re just not being enforced at this moment in time that’s not as long and ending as you seem to believe
It’s cute
Sorry, not interested.
The rules apply to them, it’s just no one is enforcing them.
That’s a distinction without a difference.
You were doing so well, until

Plus, she married a billionaire, not a saint. What did she expect?
Painful to pee?
Billionaires become billionaires because they want all of the power and privileges that come along with it. If having the total freedom and liberty to do whatever you want is your goal, there doesn’t seem to be any better way to accomplish that than to become obscenely rich. And I think that’s why so many people tolerate this cultural, social arrangement: because their goals are aligned with the super wealthy. The difference between the rich and the poor isn’t their values, it’s their net worth. That’s why everyone is hustling so hard every day to try and get as rich as possible, so that one day, maybe, they might be the one laying out on the deck of a yacht, drinking expensive champagne, snorting coke and getting a hand job from a beautiful, young girl.
Why did she keep his name?
It’s called Gatekeeping, you wouldn’t understand because it was before your time.
*Gates-keeping
Did any other prominent people get divorced around the same time?
Interesting body language from her in that video.
