Campbell defended Mallory when she faced accusations of anti-Semitism before stepping down from The Women's March, sharing a petition in support of Mallory.

 

"Black women all over the nation and Diaspora stand [in] solidarity and support of our #sistar leader TamikaDMallory #IStandwithTamikaMallory," Campbell wrote on Twitter in 2018.

She has faced backlash after she said that the controversial Farrakhan was the "greatest of all time because of what heโ€™s done in black communities." Mallory had been seen attending an event where Farrakhan said that "the powerful Jew is my enemy."

Mallory later wrote, "As I continue to grow and learn as both an activist and as a woman, I will continue to grapple with the complicated nature of working across ideological lines and the question of how to do so without causing harm to vulnerable people."

One agent who helped court Deripaska was Andrew McCabe, the recently fired FBI deputy director who played a seminal role starting the Trump-Russia case, multiple sources confirmed.Deripaskaโ€™s lawyer said the Russian ultimately spent $25 million assembling a private search and rescue team that worked with Iranian contacts under the FBIโ€™s watchful eye. Photos and videos indicating Levinson was alive were uncovered.

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.

Still no answers about American hostage Robert Levinson, spy named in Matt Gaetz scandal

 

 

At the center of an alleged plot to extort Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz is a proposal to nix reported sex trafficking charges in exchange for a $25 million fee to rescue former FBI agent Robert Levinson from Iran, a man believed by his family and U.S. intelligence officials to be dead.

 

Since Levinson's disappearance in March 2007, he has been seen only in a hostage videotape recorded in 2010 and a handful of photographs, dressed in an orange jumpsuit while holding a placard.

 

The U.S. government claimed at first that Levinson, an expert on Russian organized crime, had traveled to Iran's Kish Island as a private investigator working on a cigarette smuggling case. Iran denied knowledge of his capture.

 

DOCUMENTS DETAIL WILD ALLEGED $25M GAETZ EXTORTION SCHEME

 

It wasn't until 2013 that reports revealed he had traveled to Kish on a covert CIA mission to investigate Iranian money laundering.

 

In a statement last year, Levinson's family said it believed he had died while in Iranian custody, based on information provided to it by the U.S. government.

 

But for years, a man named Bob Kent has claimed to know Levinson's whereabouts, offering proof of life and lobbying the FBI and former Trump administration officials for money to retrieve him.

 

"For years, there's been a steady parade of well-meaning, crazy, and even corrupt people who have tried to help the Levinson family or tried to use Bob's case to help themselves," Barry Meier, author of 2016's Missing Man: The American Spy Who Vanished in Iran, told Newsweek in early 2019. "It's enough to make your head spin."

 

Kent, a former Air Force intelligence officer, according to his LinkedIn, had raised $100,000 from people โ€œwith CIA connections" pledging to pay his team in exchange for a proof-of-life package, with fingerprints, a blood sample, and a 41-second video clip, according to author Jeff Stein. A further $150,000 was promised for Levinson's rescue.

 

As Kent was preparing to leave for the mission, it was withdrawn.

 

"I received a phone call informing me that the funding was withdrawn because the State Department and/or FBI threatened my sponsors," he told Stein.

 

According to documents provided by Gaetz, Kent, and the Levinson family attorney, David McGee, an attorney at Beggs & Lane and a former federal prosecutor, have sought to extort millions of dollars from him in a bid to free Levinson from Iran.
