Replying to a video in which Microsoft founder and billionaire Bill Gates is asked about his relationship with pedophile and financier Jeffrey Epstein, journalist Tom Elliot exposed Bill Gates’ longstanding, worrisome relationship with Epstein.
In the video that Elliott quote tweeted as a way of beginning his expository thread, Gates, asked about his relationship with Epstein, said, “No. I mean, it’s no, I had dinner with them. And that’s all and I regret the relationship the acquaintance that I had dinner with him and the relationship between the foundation and Epstein, which never was any relationship of any kind.”
Well, Elliott exposed that the relationship between Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein was a good bit more than just dinner, and certainly it wasn’t true that there “never was any relationship of any kind.”
Thread! Here's the real story btwn Epstein & Gates (credit to @_whitneywebb & her book "One Nation Under Blackmail"):
1) "Epstein has made many millions out of business links with the likes of @BillGates" — 2001 Evening Standard article https://t.co/o9ix1xLe7A

The thread begins with Elliott saying: “1) “Epstein has made many millions out of business links with the likes of @BillGates” — 2001 Evening Standard article.” Continuing, Elliott then started at the beginning, 1995-96, and exposed when Gates’ relationship with Epstein began and how it developed, continuing even after Epstein was arrested for and convicted of soliciting sex from a minor. In his words:
2) While working 1995-96, Epstein victim Maria Farmer said Epstein described Gates as a close friend
3) In the late 90s, Microsoft was in business w/ two separate businesses run by Ghislane Maxwell’s sisters (Magellan & CommTouch), the latter of which Gates personally invested in.
4) Gates’ former chief tech officer & coauthor of “The Road Ahead,” Nathan Myhrvold, was a passenger on the Lolita Express at least twice, said he stayed regularly at Epstein’s houses, & organized an Epstein trip to Russia, meant to help its nuclear program w/ U.S. supercomputers
5) In 2006, Gates hired Melanie Walker to serve as “senior program officer” for the Gates Foundation. Previously she had been Jeffrey Epstein’s “science adviser,” but began her career w/ him in 1992 after he proposed helping her become a Victoria’s Secret model.
6) Walker introduced Gates’ science adviser, Boris Nikolic, to Epstein. In 2013, Epstein, Gates, & Nikolic attended an event together w/ then-JP Morgan’s Larry Summers. Nikolic was listed as the “successor executor” of Epstein’s estate, though he declined after it became public.
7) In 2014, Epstein “directed” Gates to invest $2 million to MIT’s Media Lab, which happened after a Microsoft VP introduced MIT Media Lab’s Joi Ito, who helped Epstein after his first arrest.
8) In 2013, Bill & Melinda Gates attended an event at Epstein’s NYC home, after which Melinda began counseling Bill to sever his Epstein connections.
9) Gates dined w/ Epstein in 2014 to discuss their collaborative philanthropy; soon thereafter the Clinton Global Initiative — Gates being one of its main benefactors — announced Hillary’s “No Ceilings Initiative.” Epstein’s “philanthropy” is closely tied w/ both the Gates & CGI
10) Epstein was working w/ the Gates Foundation to create a partnership w/ JPMorgan for its “global health charitable fund,” from which Epstein would have received fees.
11) Gates said Epstein was his “ticket” to winning the Nobel Prize, per his ex-staffer to the Daily Beast. Norwegian media have reported Gates and Epstein met personally w/ the Nobel Committee.
