Those text messages...

Right. It was "leaked" to the New York Times. chuckle

Sounds like a classic Pelosi "Wrap-Up Smear" to me.

At 00:24.... It's weaponized "journalism."

Or Harry Reid like he slimed Romney over not paying taxes and then gloated after the election that the slime worked.

I think this one is going to die out rapidly now that this issue of Israel has been introduced. I don't think we're going to see much more of this "scandal" going forward.

Re: BREAKING: Text messages show Israeli consulate attempt to EXTORT Matt Gaetz
Here's some more, or maybe a bit clearer info on this case. This media director of the NY Israeli consulate leaked this story to....of all people....Scott Adams of Dilbert before the NYT story was leaked. I'm having trouble figuring out the angles on this one.

This media director, Jake Novak, says to Adams that Don Gaetz, Matt's father, was secretly funding an effort by "commandos" to somehow free Robert Levinson, prisoner in Iran for 14 years whose family believes he's dead. I think they've been told that for at least a year.

So Novak tries to slime Gaetz by saying he thinks these charges against Matt are true BUT he admits that the 25 million dollar amount was an "estimate" and that they came "way down" in the amount they were requesting.

I don't know what to make of this but the whole thing sounds most unsavory. Don Gaetz was apparently talking or going to talk to these people with a wire but it looks like the FBI deliberately blew it by going to the NY Times.

Re: BREAKING: Text messages show Israeli consulate attempt to EXTORT Matt Gaetz
So the upshot of this appears to be that a member of the Israeli consulate has confirmed that they were indeed trying to get money out of Don Gaetz. They're saying it's for some commando op for Levinson, the Gaetzes are saying it's extortion and apparently went to the FBI, who blew the case.

Re: BREAKING: Text messages show Israeli consulate attempt to EXTORT Matt Gaetz
Here is an article about the Levinson family from March 2020 in which they say that they were told by "US OFFICIALS" that Levinson was dead and died prior to the COVID epidemic, which I presume would mean prior to 2020. The Levinson family was informed of this in early March 2020. Iran denies that they held this fellow prisoner but of course we can't believe them either.

Levinson was apparently a former FBI and DEA official, who was working for the CIA (what a trifecta that makes) in Iran and disappeared about 14 years before. There's a Wikipedia entry on him with details.

Re: BREAKING: Text messages show Israeli consulate attempt to EXTORT Matt Gaetz
Here's an interesting article from J-Post that gives more background on this alleged plot and who people like McGee are - apparently he was working with the Levinson family to free Mr. Levinson. That's the connection.

[link to www.jpost.com (secure)]

"The three men in the alleged scheme are David McGee, a lawyer who has represented the Levinson family in their quest to uncover information about Levinson; Bob Kent, a retired military official who has searched for Levinson for years; and Stephen Alford, a convicted fraudster whom McGee has represented in the past."

The Levinson family does not appear to be involved in any of this and they do seem to believe their relative is dead as they were told.

Sounds like the extortion part of this was dead when Gaetz Sr. went to the FIB. Then the FIB decided to use that information to frame and destroy a Trump supporter in CONgress.

FIB leaks to the NYTs AGAIN, and now Gaetz Jr. appears to be in a legal jam.

They don't have to prove anything against him. All they have to say in the press is that he's being "investigated." That's all the leftist scum need to justify hanging Matt in the town square these days.

That's very astute. So this extortion plan probably died on the vine because the whole "commando" idea sounds crazy and the FBI/DOJ decided to use part of it to smear Matt. Never let a made up scandal go to waste!

I don't think anyone actually buys this though. I'm not seeing any real belief in this.

Actually they can make even that work if they can rig it so you "tell a lie" to the FIB men like Flynn or Roger Stone.

Of course they're involved. They're always involved. At the very least, they have turned FIB "informant" to squirm out of the extortion attempt.

I'd bet that the FBI has a wild and crazy dossier all ready to go against Matt. Sent in their little "informant" Greenburg (who is apparently known to them to traffic underage girls) to talk to Matt. Matt probably just paid Greenburg (through Apple Pay FFS) back for a Limo ride or something, and BAM! Now Matt paid a child for sex.

That's how it works now.

(and why hasn't the FIB arrested Greenburg if he's a known child trafficker??????)

Our government and it's agencies are corrupt to the core, and the dumbed down public just chugs this tabloid garbage down like a raging drunk at an open bar.

In 2009, when Mueller ran the FBI, the bureau asked Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska to spend millions of his own dollars funding an FBI-supervised operation to rescue a retired FBI agent, Robert Levinson, captured in Iran while working for the CIA in 2007.

Re: BREAKING: Text messages show Israeli consulate attempt to EXTORT Matt Gaetz
One of the articles says we are not getting the whole story here - the truest statement I have read in all this BS. Another place one says Gaetz is under investigation by a secret grand jury for whatever it was sex with a minor I guess, and murder? That is the first mention of murder that I have seen, all I want to know here who is writing this script, some unhinged social justice warrior, or is it Psaki, because the information just keeps circling back on itself with another new detail added here and there and none of it makes a fkng whole cloth, first it's extortion, now it's no, we lowered the amount, sex with a 17 year old, then sex with a whole bunch of sexters for hire with receipts, well some were paid in cash, who in the fk would know some were paid in cash and can they trace that statement out to a truthteller or just a paid prostitute?
Not sure what Mike Adams is stepping into here, I will check and see how he sensationalizes this event
I suspect someone is getting played here and it isn't Gaetz that is going to be their fall guy. So far they haven't claimed she peed on him in a hotel room.

It's pretty obvious, to me, that this is the same internationalist cult who smeared Trump for years.

I finally found something that shocks even me. Apparently the ISRAELI CONSULATE is behind the blackmail attempt on Matt Gaetz. Why they would pick him particularly I don't know. It's one of the most bizarre stories I've ever heard but it seems to involve Iran and their prisoner - Levinson?

People don't seem to know or remember but Israel was founded by far Leftists - Communists even. That is the origin of the Kibbutz, collective farms so many young Israelis would work on. I think the country began under a collectivist mentality and while the Orthodox do not support this, I'm not sure about the general Israeli citizen.
