Scandals of many … megatons arise from the e-mails of an account allegedly belonging to and involving shaky names of … well-respected billionaire businessmen with the leading ones of and .
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates tried to hide from his wife Melinda that he had contracted a sexually transmitted disease after having sex with “Russian women,” according to e-mails, one of 3 million files released by the US Department of Justice.
The Epstein to Gates email
In an email that Epstein appears to have sent on his own account, he appears to argue with Gates about ending their relationship in unflattering terms: “To add insult to injury, you then, with tears in your eyes, beg me to delete the emails about your sexually transmitted disease, your request for antibiotics that you can give secretly to Melinda and the description of your penis,” the message reads.
Another email reads, according to the FT: “I was asked and mistakenly accepted to participate in acts that ranged from morally inappropriate to morally questionable… From helping Bill obtain medication to deal with the consequences of his sexual relations with Russian women, to facilitating his illicit affairs with married women, to being asked to supply Adderall for bridge tournament.
Gates denies
A spokesman for Gates said the allegations were “absolutely absurd and completely false.”
“All these documents demonstrate is Epstein’s frustration at not having a solid relationship with Gates and the steps he would take to frame and discredit him,” the spokesman added.
Ties to Trump
So far, the records have offered few new revelations about the ties between Epstein and Donald Trump.
The Trump administration had initially resisted releasing all of Epstein’s files, but backed down after pressure from both parties, including the president’s allies on the right wing of the Republican Party.
However, they have revealed Epstein’s relationships with powerful figures such as former US president Bill Clinton, Lord Peter Mandelson, former UK ambassador to the US, Elon Musk and Bill Gates.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche also sought to defend the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files from critics, including victims of the deceased sex offender, who have attacked the administration for withholding the release of all the documents for months.
“To the extent that there’s frustration, I understand where it’s coming from, just from what we know about Mr. Epstein,” Blanche said. “I hope that the work that the men and women of this department have done over the past two months will be able to close the matter.”
Arrows of the Democrats in the Ministry. US Justice
But Democrats have accused the Justice Department of continuing to withhold some of the material, saying the documents total 6 million pages.
Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said: “Donald Trump and his Justice Department have now made it clear that they intend to withhold approximately 50% of Epstein’s records, while claiming that they have fully complied with the law. This is outrageous and extremely worrying.”
Lutnik: Invitation to a meal on the island of hell
Howard Lutnick, US Commerce Secretary, also referred to the latest documents. In a late 2012 email exchange that appears to be between Epstein’s assistant Lesley Groff and Lutnick, they discussed a possible meal on Epstein’s island in the Caribbean Sea, as he and his family were traveling in the area.
The emails appear to contradict what Lutnick said in a 2025 New York Post podcast interview, in which he said he had only met Epstein once.
A Commerce Department spokesman said: “Secretary Lutnick had limited contact with Mr. Epstein in the presence of his wife and has never been accused of wrongdoing.”
Didn’t… Musk knew him?
Musk appears in several of the newly released emails, where he appears to be exchanging messages with Epstein long after Epstein pleaded guilty to extradition of a minor in prostitution in Florida in 2008.
The documents show that on Christmas Day 2012, Musk asked Epstein to a party. “I really want to go to the party in St Barth or somewhere and have a blast,” she wrote. “I really appreciate the invitation, but a quiet experience on an island is the opposite of what I’m looking for.”
Epstein replied: “I understand, I’ll see you in St Barth, the lineup on my island might make Talulah uncomfortable.” Musk replied: “Composition is not a problem for Talulah.”
Musk was married to British actress Talulah Riley at the time. It is unclear if he traveled to the island.
However, a year later, in December 2013, documents show Musk sent an e-mail asking to visit the self-proclaimed billionaire’s island again in the new year. Epstein replied, “Any day from the 1st to the 8th. Do whatever you want. There’s always room for you.” A few days later, Epstein canceled, saying he had to stay in New York.
Musk had said before the revelations that he did not know Epstein well and had only been to his Manhattan home once for 30 minutes. In September, he posted on X: “Whoever promotes this false narrative deserves our utter contempt. Epstein tried to convince me to go to his island and I REFUSED.”
Friday’s Justice Department filings show that Musk’s brother Kimball, a Tesla board member, also exchanged multiple emails with Epstein and his associate Boris Nikolic in 2012.
In one message, Kimball thanked the couple for introducing him to a woman named Jennifer, and Nikolic warned him, “Kimbal — just so you know — better be nice to Jenn 😉 Jeffrey gets mad when someone treats his girlfriends/girlfriends badly.”
Kimball replied: “Jeffrey: The message came through loud and clear. 😉 Seriously now, I’m very happy with the time I’ve spent with Jennifer so far. She’s wonderful.”
