Women interviewing for Bill Gates' private office were asked about porn, STDs, if they ever 'danced for dollars': Report



Women interviewing for jobs in the private office of billionaire Bill Gates were asked personal questions about their private lives, according to a new report.

The Wall Street Journal reported that female candidates applying for jobs in Gates' private office were interviewed by a security firm and were asked questions about their sexual histories, pornography preferences, and whether they had ever "danced for dollars."

"Some people who sought jobs at billionaire Bill Gates’s private office described going through an extensive screening process that included being questioned by a security firm about their sexual histories, past drug use, and other parts of their private lives that might indicate they were vulnerable to blackmail," according to the Wall Street Journal.

Candidates claimed that applicants for jobs at Gates Ventures were asked if they ever had a sexually transmitted disease, ever had an extramarital affair, or if they had any nude photos of themselves on their phones.

The Wall Street Journal noted that none of the male candidates they had contacted said they were asked the same personal questions as the women.

The Wall Street Journal reported:

A consent form, reviewed by the Journal, said a behavioral assessment by a Concentric professional would be used to “assess suitability for employment” by Gates’s private office and would include drug and alcohol history as well as past medical and psychiatric history as it relates to the job. The form, requiring a signature from the job candidate, gave permission to disclose the results from the assessment to Gates’s private office, including “highly sensitive information,” and “does not allow for the re-disclosure of sexually transmitted diseases,” the document shows.

Carol Miaskoff, legal counsel at the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, said any questioning about a candidate’s health or psychiatric history before a job offer "is just flat-out prohibited by the federal Americans With Disabilities Act."

Miaskoff added that job interview questions about past drug use may also violate the same law because they may reveal addiction – which is considered a disability.

Concentric said its screening process complies with all applicable laws.

A spokesperson for Gates said his private office has not heard about the personal questions in the interview process by the third-party contractor.

"This line of questioning would be unacceptable and a violation of Gates Ventures’ agreement with the contractor," who must comply with pre-employment screening laws, the spokesperson said.

"We have never received information from any vendor or interviewee in our 15+ year history that inappropriate questions were asked during the screening process," the spokesperson said in a statement. "We can confirm, that after a comprehensive review of our records, no employment offer has ever been rescinded based on information of this nature."

A Concentric spokesperson denied asking questions about sexual or medical histories.

The spokesperson said the security screening involves "assessing a candidate’s truthfulness and vulnerability to blackmail, which often starts with voluntary statements by the candidate with follow-up questions by company interviewers."

"Concentric CEO Mike LeFever said that the company provides industry-standard background checks for hundreds of companies and its pre-employment interview protocol, which is identical for men and women, is compliant with laws in each state and nation where it provides services," the WSJ reported.

The security firm said it doesn't provide hiring recommendations.

The Concentric Advisors website states that the security firm has "supported private family offices for high-net-worth clients for almost two decades."

"Concentric provides investigative and global due diligence services for corporations, family offices, high-net-worth individuals, and private clients," the site says. "Through a combination of public records research and interviews, Concentric’s pre-employment diligence and background investigations provide a thorough review of employees, partners, home staff, third-party agents, and others."

Concentric Advisors boasts that it has investigators who are former CIA and FBI agents.

Gates, the fourth-richest person in the world with a net worth of $132 billion, acknowledged in 2021 that he had an affair with a Microsoft employee 20 years ago.

In 2019, Microsoft launched a probe into Gates' "intimate relationship" with an employee.

"Microsoft received a concern in the latter half of 2019 that Bill Gates sought to initiate an intimate relationship with a company employee in the year 2000," said Microsoft spokesman Frank Shaw. "A committee of the Board reviewed the concern, aided by an outside law firm to conduct a thorough investigation. Throughout the investigation, Microsoft provided extensive support to the employee who raised the concern."

"There was an affair almost 20 years ago which ended amicably," Gates' spokeswoman, Bridgitt Arnold, said in 2021.

Las Vegas OBGYN, who called himself the 'Vagina Whisperer,' accused of sexual misconduct by board; patients say he offered $1,000 for nude photos, claim of 'excruciating' sexual assault



A Las Vegas gynecologist – who called himself the "Vagina Whisperer" – is accused of sexual misconduct by the Nevada Medical Board. The OBGYN doctor allegedly offered patients $1,000 to take photos of their genitalia for his "portfolio" and is accused of sexual assault at his office by a woman.

George Peter Chambers, MD, is an OBGYN doctor who has been licensed by the board since 2003. Chambers is a "certified Sexual Health Medicine specialist and specializes in cosmetic-gynecologic surgeries, like labiaplasty and vaginal rejuvenation."

Chambers, 51, allegedly deleted his practice's website recently. The website said of Chambers, "As a gynecological surgeon who was raised and positively influenced by women, Dr. Chambers recognizes that all women want to look and feel beautiful.”

Chambers was reportedly active on Instagram under the handle "@vaginawhispererlasvegas" before deactivating the account on Thursday.

The Daily Beast reported, "His TikTok and Instagram accounts shared videos of surgeries and closeups of vaginas. One showed Chambers dancing into his disposable surgery gown, past what appears to be the body of a patient on a table. 'Dr. C living his best life,' reads text superimposed on the video. It’s unclear whether patients knew he was recording himself during these procedures."

"On Instagram, he promoted his services with images that appeared to be amateur photographs of women’s bodies that were edited or filtered," the outlet added. "A regular feature on his account was 'Sexplained with Dr. C,' which delved into fetishes and sexual terminology that some audiences might find more fitting for pornography than a medical office. 'Why do some men steal women’s panties?' one post in that series asked. Another explored the term 'cuckold.'"

On Sept. 21, the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners accused Chambers of "repeatedly exploited his relationships with patients and violated patients' trust by engaging in sexual improprieties that constitute sexual misconduct."

The board said Chambers committed Medical Practice Act violations that "undermine the public’s trust and respect for the medical profession."

“[Chambers] has demonstrated a pattern of failing to use the reasonable care, skill, or knowledge ordinarily used by obstetrician-gynecologists in good standing by repeatedly engaging in sexual improprieties with more than one patient,” the board declared.

The board’s complaint cites allegations from three of his patients between 2018 and 2020.

The first patient sought Chambers for surgical repair of a damaged perineum – the area between the anus and a woman's vagina. The 36-year-old woman said Chambers instructed her to keep her cellphone nearby so that he could take photos during the exam. He allegedly snapped 12 photos, and asked that two be sent to him via text message, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The medical board determined that taking and sending the photos "was disrespectful of Patient A’s privacy."

The board's complaint noted that one of the photos taken showed him inserting four fingers into her vagina.

The patient claimed that Chambers used an inappropriate sexual slang term to describe his actions during the OBGYN appointment.

Weeks after her appointment with Chambers, the patient allegedly contacted the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department in November 2020. She allegedly provided police with the contents of her cell phone.

In July 2021, a detective reportedly contacted the woman to inform her that police determined that Chambers had not sexually assaulted her.

The patient believed the doctor's actions were "sexual assault."

The woman reportedly told the detective, "I know what he put in my vagina. I felt it, and Dr. Chambers told me and showed me exactly what it was."

The patient said she suffered "excruciating pain and damage," and was forced to visit her OBGYN six days later.

Patient A wrote a review of her experience with Chambers on Yelp in 2021, "What I experienced is very concerning. To say Dr. Chambers was inappropriate with me would be a gross understatement in my opinion. I hope that any woman who has had a similar experience will come forward."

A second patient claimed that she was offered $1,000 by Chambers to allow him to take nude photos of her. He reportedly told the 35-year-old woman that the naked photos would be an "advertisement" for his practice.

The woman told The Daily Beast, "He said, 'Have you ever posed nude?' with a creepy smile on his face. I said, 'No, why do you ask?' And then he went on to tell me that he needs models to pose nude for his ads for his labiaplasty website."

The woman added, "He was different from other OBGYNs. He wouldn’t wait for me to ask a question about my sexual health, he would just fire questions away … I’m sitting in the room feeling like I have no choice but to answer these questions."

A third patient purportedly mentioned to Chambers that she was struggling financially. He reportedly responded by offering her $1,000 to pose in the nude during the OBGYN appointment in October 2019. Chambers told the 27-year-old woman that he was "seeking models to participate in a photography session in which photos would be taken of the model's vaginal area and nude body," according to the board's complaint. The gynecologist also offered the woman a thumb drive of the "boudoir" photos.

The medical board said, "Patient C thought it was odd that [Chambers] was soliciting photographs of her vaginal area as a representative of his work because he had never performed any cosmetic procedure on her genitals."

Chambers has 20 days to respond to the complaint, and then the board will set up a formal hearing on the accusations.

In April 2020, Chambers was featured in a local news segment by KLAS-TV about how he kept his medical office open during the pandemic.

Latest allegations against NY Gov. Andrew Cuomo referred to Albany police



The Albany Police Department has been notified of the latest sexual harassment allegations against New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and is offering their services to the alleged victim, should she wish to file a criminal complaint.

Albany police officials who spoke to the New York Times said the latest reported incident between the governor and a former female aide who is much younger than he may have risen "to the level of a crime."

A spokesman for the department said they have not received a formal complaint from the woman nor opened a criminal investigation, but they have offered their help to her, "as we would do with any other report or incident."

State police contacted Albany police after the Albany Times Union reported the latest accusations against the governor, made by an unidentified aide who said that at the governor's mansion late last year Cuomo reached under her blouse and "aggressively groped her." The former aide is the sixth woman to accuse Cuomo of sexual harassment.

Cuomo's lawyer Beth Garvey told the Times that she had contacted the police department and reported the allegations against the governor, following state policy. She also said a lawyer for the female aide told the governor's office that the aide does not wish to file a police report.

"As a matter of state policy, when allegations of physical contact are made, the agency informs the complainant that they should contact their local police department," Garvey said in a statement. "If they decline, the agency has an obligation to reach out themselves and inform the department of the allegation."

She added: "In this case, the person is represented by counsel and when counsel confirmed the client did not want to make a report, the state notified the police department and gave them the attorney's information."

The Albany Times Union reported Wednesday that the female aide "had been called to the mansion under the apparent pretext of having her assist the governor with a minor technical issue involving his mobile phone."

After the aide was alone with Cuomo on the second floor of the governor's mansion, she claims he closed the door and allegedly reached under her blouse and began to fondle her without her consent.

Gov. Cuomo has forcefully denied these allegations.

"I have never done anything like this," Cuomo said in a statement Wednesday, calling the Times Union report "gut-wrenching."

He refused to speak to the specifics of the allegations, referring to the ongoing review by state Attorney General Letitia James and expressing confidence in her forthcoming report on all of the allegations.

Jimmy Kimmel, Trevor Noah rip Gov. Andrew Cuomo over sexual misconduct allegations: 'You're so dumb you shouldn't be in office'



Late-night TV hosts Jimmy Kimmel and Trevor Noah hit out at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) Tuesday night, blasting him for the emergence of sexual misconduct allegations against him.

What's a brief history here?

The remarks came as a third woman on Monday accused the embattled Democrat of sexual harassment, insisting that he made unwanted advances toward her during a 2019 wedding.

Anna Ruch — a former Obama administration employee and Biden 2020 campaign staffer — also provided a photo of the alleged encounter and said that during the wedding, Cuomo placed his hand on the small of her bare back, which was exposed due to the dress she was wearing.

A report from the New York Times noted, "When she removed his hand with her own, Ms. Ruch recalled, the governor remarked that she seemed 'aggressive' and placed his hands on her cheeks. He asked if he could kiss her, loudly enough for a friend standing nearby to hear. Ms. Ruch was bewildered by the entreaty, she said, and pulled away as the governor drew closer."

"I was so confused and shocked and embarrassed," Ruch said. "I turned my head away and didn't have words in that moment."

What did Kimmel say?

During Tuesday night's broadcast of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" the eponymous show's host addressed the new accusations and said, "The craziest part is there's a photo of it. Very rarely does a wedding photographer capture anything interesting at all, but this one did."

"In the span of one month, Andrew Cuomo has somehow done the impossible: He made Bill de Blasio the second most-hated politician in new York," he added.

What did Noah say?

For his part, Noah said that Cuomo fell in one of two camps: willfully ignorant or stupid.

"Sweet Jesus, man, what are you doing?" he asked. "I mean, on the one hand, asking a woman for consent before you kiss them is what you're supposed to do. But the other part of consent is waiting for them to answer. You don't just grab them by the face like a bear yanking on a beehive."

He added, "And it's not like this happened in 1992, and he could be like, 'Well, this was a different time.' This was in 2019. If you're a public official doing this kind of thing after the #MeToo movement, either you just can't help yourself, or you're so dumb you shouldn't be in office anyway."

Noah concluded, "So in light of these allegations, Cuomo is now facing even more calls to resign. Although, if these allegations prove anything, it's that Cuomo doesn't go away when you want him to."

What else is there to know?

Lindsey Boylan, a former Cuomo administration aide, came forward in February and accused the New York governor of sexual impropriety, including allegations of inappropriate physical touching, a non-consensual kiss on the lips, and more.

Last week, Charlotte Bennett — another former Cuomo aide — said that the Democratic lawmaker peppered her with wildly inappropriate questions about her personal sex life and more.

Cuomo said of the sexual harassment allegations, "I never intended to offend anyone or cause any harm. I spend most of my life at work and colleagues are often also personal friends."

"At work sometimes I think I am being playful and make jokes that I think are funny. I do, on occasion, tease people in what I think is a good natured way. I do it in public and in private. You have seen me do it at briefings hundreds of times. I have teased people about their personal lives, their relationships, about getting married or not getting married. I mean no offense and only attempt to add some levity and banter to what is a very serious business," he added.

"I now understand that my interactions may have been insensitive or too personal and that some of my comments, given my position, made others feel in ways I never intended," his statement continued. "I acknowledge some of the things I have said have been misinterpreted as an unwanted flirtation. To the extent anyone felt that way, I am truly sorry about that."

He also insisted that he "never inappropriately touched anybody" and "never propositioned anybody" and "never intended to make anyone feel uncomfortable."

Female reporter comes out with bullying, intimidation allegations against Gov. Andrew Cuomo



A former journalist said recently that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and his administration bullied and attempted to intimidate her, according to the New York Post.

What is a brief history here?

The woman, Lindsay Nielsen, is just one of several people who have come forward with allegations that the New York governor bullied and attempted to intimidate them.

Karen Hinton, a woman who once worked as Cuomo's press secretary, says that the New York governor is a master of "penis politics" and has a "penchant for bullying." She also insisted that Cuomo worked to undermine her and her experience on a regular basis while under his employ.

New York journalist Morgan Pehme claimed last week that Cuomo "terrorized" him for doing his job as a journalist.

Cuomo also reportedly threatened Assemblyman Ron Kim (D) for calling out Cuomo's "BS" as the state's ongoing COVID-19-nursing home scandal continues to unfold. During a phone conversation, Cuomo reportedly told Kim, "You have not seen my wrath. I have been biting my tongue for months. I can tell the whole world what a bad person you are and you will be finished. You will be destroyed."

A Cuomo senior adviser hit back at Kim's claims, alleging that the assemblyman was "lying about his conversation" with the governor, and insisted Cuomo never made those remarks.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said that reports about Cuomo's purported conversation were not surprising, and that the alleged bullying was "classic Andrew Cuomo."

"A lot of people in New York state have received those phone calls," he added. "I believe Ron Kim and it's very, very sad. No public servant, no person who is telling the truth, should be treated that way. The threats, the belittling, the demand that someone change their statement right that moment — many, many times I've heard that and I know a lot of other people in the state that have heard that."

What are the details?

In a statement posted to Twitter on Sunday, Nielsen wrote, "'You have a vendetta against him don't you!' That was the last time I allowed someone connected to Governor Andrew Cuomo's administration to harass and manipulate me. It was during one of the many accusatory and threatening phone calls I received by his staff members that I realized this behavior was never going to stop."

"It was shortly thereafter that I decided to leave my job at News10," she continued. "The late night phone calls from the administration, the constant threats to call my boss, the incessant bullying to try and get me to stop doing my job and reporting specific stories ... it would never end. The tactics used were deliberate yet evasive. They skimmed the line of inappropriateness ever so delicately as to make you feel like they were acceptable."

Nielsen concluded the post, "I am writing this today to make sure that those involved in this behavior back then now know that not only was it not acceptable but also that it was damaging. I applaud those who have come forward recently with reports of similar behavior by the same administration."

I have something to say today. https://t.co/qz0EkC5cD5

What else?

Nielsen told the New York Post that what she went through felt like "personal attacks" though she was simply trying to do her job as a journalist.

"It was very harassing," she added.

The Post reported, "Nielsen explained that when she'd reach out to Cuomo's office for comment on a story she often would not get a response — only to then get a barrage of phone calls demanding changes after it was published."

She told the outlet, "They would make it person, claiming I have this personal vendetta against the governor, which is absolutely bogus. I was doing my job as a journalist. All I was ever trying to do was report the story, report the facts."

Nielsen said that she decided to come forward with the accusations after other women stepped forward with what she said were similar stories.

"I don't want another reporter to have to go through that," she explained. "That's why I did it."
