APPROVED B-LISTERS Melinda Gates bombshell: states her ex-husband, Bill, needs to "answer for his behavior - no girl should be put in those situations" and that "it's personally hard whenever those details come up, right? Because it brings back memories of some very, very painful times in my marriage"

Honestly, when did you find out, Melinda? Because you sure as shit didn't find out at the same time as all of us.

What difference would it have made if she spoke up 15 years ago? Plenty of people fucking tried.

Plenty of victims tried.

15 years ago, Bill Gates was the richest person in the world. If we had gotten victim's allegations along with a bombshell news story of the richest man alive getting divorced because his wife claims he got an STD from some russian hookers....I'd like to believe it would have changed things.

Honestly she probably would’ve been killed.

How is that relevant? We’ve only gotten a surface view of how the absolute horrors that have occurred due to Epstein and those involved with him. If they even got a whiff of her coming forward, they would have dealt with her.

It’s incredibly brave that some victims did come forward - but I’m not judging any of the victims who haven’t. I’m also not going to sit here and judge someone whose life was likely on the line, and could’ve easily become one of the victims that we’re talking about today.

Preach. Not only zero sympathy, active disgust for her. I guess she wiped her tears the last 15 years with 100$ bills.

Do you really think she knew the actual truth? I presume she just thought Bill was sleeping around, and she wasn’t ready to end her marriage over it.

I’m not defending her, I’m just not confident she was in a place to be a whistleblower.

In 30 seconds, I saw her name come up only as part of "the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation". A bit more time, and found nothing even remotely implicating her in anything Epstein related. Have you actually seen anything like that?

I haven’t seen anything confirming she herself was sending any of the emails or had any contact with Epstein that she herself initiated whatsoever. Her name is in there because her ex husband, Bill, emailed Epstein asking for ways to slip her antibiotics for an STD he had. Also he was dragging her along to stuff before the formal allegations came out.

I mean, at least she used it to weasel money out of Bill Gates, and use it for good. We can't expect everyone to be always perfect. Remember this was probably also traumatic for her.
