Bill Gates faces congressional investigators over ties to Jeffrey Epstein

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is scheduled to appear before the House Oversight Committee today, June 10, 2026, to answer questions regarding his connections to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. This testimony forms part of the committee's ongoing investigation into Epstein's network and follows the recent public release of numerous documents by the Justice Department, which included mentions and photographs of Gates' interactions with Epstein.

Gates' appearance will take place in a closed-door session, with a transcript anticipated to be released at a later date. He has consistently expressed regret over his association with Epstein, terming it a "huge mistake," and maintains he was unaware of Epstein's illicit activities and did not participate in any wrongdoing. Gates previously apologized to his foundation's staff for his ties to Epstein.
