Levine was one of the first people to testify for the grand jury investigating the Plame scandal. Levine's testimony addressed his knowledge of White House procedures, in particular phone calls with reporters and a conversation he had with Karl Rove on July 11, 2003.[3] He testified again in October 2005, making him one of the last witnesses to speak to prosecutors before Patrick Fitzgerald decided not to indict Rove.[3] Levine's testimony to prosecution investigators indicated that the Plame affair was not a priority for Rove at the time and therefore easily forgotten by Rove

"History of Threats and Allegations Against Prior Employers

It is our understanding that Levine has also been accused of threatening and illegal conduct by some of his prior employers. This includes allegations of misconduct by Levine while he was working for former employers such as Texas Pacific Group (TPG) and Hardball with Chris Matthews. In each instance, Change has reason to believe that Levine had planted stories, and continues to plant stories, with various media outlets to smear his former employers. Levine has also previously been accused of stealing confidential company information, violating various Non-Disclosure Agreements, and violating the Company’s Attorney-Client Privilege. Each of which Levine has engaged in with respect to Change."
