Original Note:
There is no substantiated evidence that Bill Gates visited Epstein’s private island 37 times or even 17 times. He only flew on the plane from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey to Palm Beach, Florida. Importantly, Gates was not aware that it was Epstein’s plane. https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-did-bill-gates-visit-epstein-island-37-times-1782440 https://nypost.com/2020/05/15/bill-gates-didnt-visit-sex-criminal-jeffrey-epsteins-island-repeatedly/ https://www.factcheck.org/2020/05/false-claim-targets-gates-using-epstein-connection/ https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2023/evidence-does-not-support-a-claim-that-bill-gates-went-to-jeffrey-epsteins-island-much-less-37-times/
