Do you remember when Bill Gates lied and said he never spent time with Jeffy Epstein? Then, do you remember when the DOJ emails came out, and Gates was busted, as they revealed that he was sleeping with Russian prostitutes? And then in those same emails, it was revealed that he had an STD and wanted Jeffy to help him get a remedy so that he could also give it to his wife, Melinda, on the down low?
Well, now more information is coming out of emails that really kinda show what a d*ck Bill Gates really is. Especially to his homeboy, Jeffy. The emails reveal that Epstein was bankrolling the life of an ‘ex-girlfriend’ of Gates for years. And he was getting a little tired of it and wanted to be paid back. Imagine you have to beg a billionaire for money?
So what exactly happened here? And how did Gates screw Jeff over?
Jeffrey Epstein put up Mila Antonova (Gates’ girl) in one of his Upper East Side apartments for the week, he told Gates’ lawyer, Larry Cohen. Antonova, a Russian bridge player, had “a relationship” with Gates around 2010, and had been receiving financial help from Epstein for years. And Epstein wanted Gates to know. In fact, Epstein had wanted Gates to know for a long time.
The released DOJ documents in January show that between 2013 and at least 2018, Epstein helped Antonova with her visa, wired her cash, housed her repeatedly in various apartments he kept in Manhattan, and paid for her coding education. Epstein wanted his money back, and he referred to all of the payments and pressured Gates to reimburse him, emails show.
In one exchange, after three years had passed, Epstein wrote how he had “paid for school, helped organize visa,” and Antonova had “to stop bridge tournaments, living day to day on a friend’s couch with no air con (conditioner).”
“I know you and Bill share my views on the sanctity of friendship,” he wrote to Cohen as he was airing out his grievances.
It was reported that Antonova had neither knowledge of Epstein’s efforts to pressure Gates, nor provided “services, information or any other assurance or act in exchange” for his support. The lawyer said Antonova “naively accepted” Epstein’s help, believing he genuinely wanted to assist her.
Five months before he was arrested in 2019, Epstein was still emailing Gates asking to be repaid. Antonova’s attorney confirmed to the media that Antonova met Gates at a bridge tournament in 2009 and “maintained a relationship with him for a time.”
How did Anatova and Epstein cross paths? Good question. The relationship with Antonova began with Boris Nikolic. Nikolic was then-Gates’ chief science adviser at the Gates Foundation. Nikolic was also one of Epstein’s most frequent correspondents. The two exchanged thousands of emails between 2009 and 2019 (the year Epstein supposedly passed away).
In May of 2013, Nikolic emailed someone who appeared to be an immigration attorney about Antonova. He described her as a Russian friend who had “overextended her stay in the states”. The case, he wrote, would “need to be VERY creative,” and added that he was “willing to cover the cost.”
There seems to be a discrepancy here, as Antonova’s attorney confirmed that Nikolic referred her to an immigration attorney but disputed that he offered to cover the fees, instead saying Antonova and her “then-husband” paid. Antonova’s last contact with Gates, according to her lawyers, was in May 2013.
Was her “then-husband” Bill Gates? Gates later confirmed the affair. In a town hall last month with Gates Foundation staff, Gates told employees he “had affairs”, including one “with a Russian bridge player who met me at bridge events.”
In 2013, a curveball was lobbed. Epstein brought Antonova’s name up to Nikolic for the first time in a correspondence. “Ask the attorney who was helping Mila, for her status?” he said. By November, Epstein had meetings scheduled with both Nikolic and Antonova.
Over the next year, Epstein funded a large part of Antonova’s life. In October of 2014, he emailed his accountant, Richard Kahn, with wire instructions for an entity called Bridge Union Inc.: He directed payments of $7,000 a month to Antonova. Emails between Epstein’s assistant Leslie Groff, Antonova, and building staff also show Groff sending apartment details and door codes to apartments Epstein maintained in the Upper East Side.
By mid-2016, Gates had stopped engaging with Epstein directly; his last email to Epstein in the DOJ documents is from December 2014. After that, all communications were filtered through Cohen, whom Epstein didn’t trust and described as “Melinda’s boy” in emails to Nikolic.
But, Epstein felt it was important to make sure that Gates knew the connection to Antonova was still alive. In June of 2016, he emailed Nikolic with a message meant for Gates: “You can tell your boy that I still hear from Mila. I put her through computer school.”
Epstein was dumbfounded about getting the cold shoulder from Gates. In July of 2017, he wrote to Nikolic:
“Your friend Bill is nuts. His former girl. Can’t afford air con, can’t afford to travel to bridge… that story would take Trump off the front pages. The richest man in the world is so cheap, his former bridge girl and toy, lives on a friend’s sofa. WOWO.”
Cohen sent Epstein an email that said Gates would soon give the “nod” for them to talk. After time went by and there was no meeting, Epstein emailed again. “No acknowledgment from Bill??” to which Cohen responded: “He’s been off the grid for a while.”
The silence stretched into December 2017, and Epstein was starting to get shifty. “The phrase is, I’m about to run out of money,” he emailed Cohen. Cohen reached out asking to talk, but Epstein was not interested. He replied that he had also emailed Gates directly, “asking why I had no BG approval, nor offer to pay back what was advanced at his (Bill’s) request. All odd.”
Fast forward to April 2018. Antonova stayed in Epstein’s apartment again. Building staff emailed Epstein’s assistants to confirm a welcome letter had been left for “Mila Antanova arriving Thurs. April 26th.” Days later, on April 30, Epstein emailed Cohen with the message that opened this story: “FYI, I had to put up Mila in New York for the week. I was not there. Playing with fire,” he said.
On Jan. 5, 2019, Epstein emailed Gates directly: “I think at some point you want to reimburse me… I feel awkward asking.” Four days later, he wrote to Gates and Cohen again, requesting a meeting: “I think best that when Bill is on the East Coast, we set aside an hour to meet.” It’s unclear if Epstein ever received a response.
In January of 2019, Epstein emailed Gates again. “I hope you follow Bezos’ lead.” Ten days earlier, Jeff Bezos had announced his divorce from MacKenzie Scott shortly after reports that Bezos was having an extramarital affair with Lauren Sanchez.
Five months later, Epstein was arrested for conspiring to sex traffic minors. A month after that, he was supposedly “found dead” in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. And with that, jailing and “death,” he never got paid back from Gates. Damn, that Bill Gates is such an asshole!!!!
