This move against Gaetz is interesting. Accuser David McGee is a former DoJ guy who CLAIMS to be a ‘friend’ of Bob Levinson, the former FBI [CIA?] agent who traveled to Iran’s Kish Island and met with a black American and convert to Islam fugitive who defected to Iran after assassinating a Shah loyalist official in Washington DC back in the 80s. The Iranians had the guy working for a state run news outlet after his defection, maybe it was IranTV. The first US story about Levinson claimed he was following leads in a case about cigarette smuggling in the Persian Gulf region on behalf of a British company when he went missing. Apparently Levinson died in Iranian hands.
Also involved in the Levinson case was an FBI/DoJ investigator, a woman named Gritz. Gritz was involved in a sexual harassment case against Andrew McCabe and in that matter Gen. Michael Flynn may have pissed off McCabe by standing up for Gritz, whose Levinson investigation was being blocked by McCabe.
Retired FBI employee Levinson reportedly went missing after meeting with the fugitive assassin while working for the British American Tobacco Company. Speculation was he was in the gulf region for other reasons, either looking into Hezbollah or something about Russian organized crime. Anyway, this company, BAT, years later, appears in this story...

In the race to come up with a viable vaccine for the novel coronavirus, many groups around the world have been diving into the effort with a great sense of urgency. Various hospitals, universities and even bio-tech companies (some of whom have never produced a vaccine before) have gotten in on the action. But I’ll confess that I didn’t anticipate hearing about tobacco companies entering the competition. And yet, here we are. One of the biggest tobacco companies in the world, British American Tobacco, has somehow developed a vaccine that they say shows great promise and they’re ready to...

Robyn Gritz spent 16 years at the FBI, where she investigated a series of major national security threats. But she says she got crosswise with her supervisors, who pushed her out and yanked her security clearance. For the first time, she’s speaking out about her situation, warning about how the bureau treats women and the effects of a decade of fighting terrorism. —SNIP— Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, who led the Defense Intelligence Agency, worked closely with Gritz to find terrorists overseas. He says it’s a shame the FBI let go of someone with years of top national security experience.
Under Bubba, McGee briefly rose to a minor player as an Assistant DA in Florida, mostly drug trafficking but also was involved in US v. F. Lee Bailey that sent that schlep to jail. This is the braggadochio on this finocchio's website:
McGee's salad days are long over so it's easy to imagine this is yet another in a long string of old Democrats who make a vainglorious attempt to be relevant long after falling off the Donkey Cart.
The big tell is that this doofus must have shopped this rumor so far and wide that it immediately reached Gaetz, and the NYT.
