Newly released congressional testimony reveals what Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates told lawmakers about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and the allegations surrounding their interactions. During a closed-door interview, Gates disclosed details about three extramarital affairs and claimed Epstein appeared to make 'veiled threats' after learning about his private relationships.

Bill Gates told a House panel that Jeffrey Epstein attempted to use compromising information about Gates' extramarital affairs to force his way back into Gates' life.

"I should never have met with Epstein in the first place," Bill Gates told members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
