MY DINNER WITH EPSTEIN: Gates Grilled on Dinners With Convicted Pedophile, 'Shouldn't Have Done It'

posted by Hannity Staff - 1.30.23

Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates was pressed on his relationship with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein during a recent interview with Australia’s ABC 7.30. Host Sarah Ferguson suggested Gates’ Epstein ties are “one of the issues that [has] dogged” him over the last couple of years.

From The New York Post:

Ferguson asked, “Do you regret the relationship that you maintained with him against Melinda’s advice and wishes?”

Gates told Ferguson she was going “way back in time” before shrugging and answering the question.

“I will say for the over a 100th time, yeah, I shouldn’t have had dinners with him,” Gates said.

The “ABC 7.30” host wasn’t finished, informing Gates that “Epstein had a way of sexually compromising” people.

“Is that what Melinda was warning you about?” Ferguson asked.

“No, I mean, no, I had dinner with him and that’s all,” Gates said.

Ferguson pressed, asking if Gates regrets the relationship.

“That I had dinner with him,” Gates said, further implying the relationship was simply dinner.

Gates then rejected the notion that Gates’ foundation and Epstein were connected.

“There never was any relationship of any kind,” he said.

In 2021, Gates was confronted by PBS NewsHour anchor Judy Woodruff about the same topic and the billionaire gave similar answers.

Doesn’t sound like Gates will ever live down his connection to Epstein. Gates’ ex-wife Melinda told CBS News last year that she used to have nightmares about the Epstein connection.
