Journalist Writing About Biden’s Afghan Disaster Goes Missing After FBI Raids Home

-

An Emmy Award-winning journalist hasn't been seen in months. Besides a successful career in journalism, , 52, served as a senior counterterrorism adviser and investigator for the U.S. House Homeland Security Committee. He was also writing a book detailing one part of President Biden's chaotic withdrawal of U.S. forces from .

According to Rolling Stone magazine, agents raided his upscale Northern apartment in April. Meek hasn't been seen since.

The Daily Wire has more:

The publication claims that sources familiar with matter said that he was the target of a federal investigation and that the FBI allegedly found classified information on his laptop during the raid.

None of Meek's neighbors have seen him since the raid, the report said. “He fell off the face of the Earth,” one neighbor said, noting that they've asked around, “but no one knew the answer.”

A spokesperson for ABC News said that Meeks “resigned very abruptly” and that he “hasn't worked for us for months.”

“Mr. Meek is unaware of what allegations anonymous sources are making about his possession of classified documents,” Eugene Gorokhov, Meeks' attorney, said in a statement. “If such documents exist, as claimed, this would be within the scope of his long career as an investigative journalist covering wrongdoing. The allegations in your inquiry are troubling for a different reason: they appear to come from a source inside the government. It is highly inappropriate, and illegal, for individuals in the government to leak information about an ongoing investigation. We hope that the DOJ [] promptly investigates the source of this leak.”

Meeks' book, titled “Operation Pineapple Express: The Incredible Story of a Group of Americans Who Undertook One Last Mission and Honored a Promise in Afghanistan” remains in limbo. His co-author, Lt. Col. Scott Mann, told Rolling Stone that he received an odd call from Meeks before his disappearance.

“He contacted me in the spring, and was really distraught, and told me that he had some serious personal issues going on and that he needed to withdraw from the project,” Mann said. “As a guy who's a combat veteran who has seen that kind of strain — I don't know what it was — I honored it. And he went on his way, and I continued on the project.”

According to the Rolling Stone article, justifying such drastic action against a journalist would require evidence leading the to conclude that Meeks was either working for a hostile foreign power, a terrorist organization or involved in the exploitation of minors.

    • He was speaking up…that was his problem, and likely why he disappeared.Speaking out is not tolerated anymore by the new regime.

  1. What instigated the FBI’s raid on his apartment, though we now know that the FBI claims they found confidential documents, which seems that they always claim to find those in order to use them as an excuse for their raids, but what actually gave them the reason to raid his home, what was the accusations that warranted such a raid? Did the FBI arrest him during or after the raid?

    A home is not always a house, it is a personal abode, which could be an apartment or condominium, or a cabin in the woods, even a tent such as those that line the streets in San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle, which any of these Democrat controlled cities could be called a capitol of homelessness.

    • If it involved adverse action taken against anyone investigating anything about Biden, the media is AWOL-as usual. This is why surprising majority numbers of Americans polled view the MSM as a danger to democracy.

    • The so-called MSM either has its collective head in the sand – or is suppressing this story…like they do with every other story that would put any currently (and sadly) in charge in a bad light. Only the American people speaking out might well change this…that and the VOTE! Why I will never, ever vote for one of those who is currently a majority (POTUS and Congress) again, unless and until they severely do a turn-around…and I mean it.

  2. The Clinton’s are involved. Oh, wait a minute, you would be found dead and it would be classified as suicide. With a red tie on a door knob……..

    So where can this guy be? Would the Biden administration off him?

  3. It sounds like he contacted that disease that affects people who talk to FBI or other government officials about Democrats in a bad light. It’s DEADLY! People that have talked to officials about Hilary caught it and now people who talk about Biden are exposed to it also. It makes them totally disappear, or are met with a violent death. You know, like car bombings, exploding mail, the list goes on. BEWARE! Do not use your right of freedom of speech. You’ll end up DEAD!

  4. He has been murdered by orders from Joe Biden. FBI is not FBI anymore. Its the Gestapo. Democrats’ cartel has been out in force to destroy truth and justice. Hillary trained the justice system to hate America and her people. Garland and Wray are deep state gutter rats. Democrat party is not American it is the nazi regime showing the world just how corrupt and evil they are. Watch your backs American people they will be coming for you.

    • You really said it – and exactly what I was trying to say. We now have a Democratic/Nazi/fascist party in charge, and beware saying anything negative about any of them. Witness the results of the so-called Durham “investigation!” Did anyone, anyone at all think anything negative about those who tried (and ultimately failed) to “get” Mr. Trump for “Russiagate” — or, for that matter, any other “investigation concocted for same result to be productive, actually DO something about the false accusations, impeachment trials, etc. that cost taxpayers a LOT of money, worse yet, further DIVIDED the American people? Really?!? I had hoped, but now my hopes are dashed, UNLESS a regime change is in the offing, and that means first get rid of every Democrat and RINO who participated in the egregious and REAL attempt to overthrow elections (and I am talking about 2016), which is also a not-so-hidden attempt to jimmy the next ones (2022 & 2024). I am not so naive anymore. Hope my fellow Americans are not, either…

  5. So is the FBI and DOJ kidnapping and making people disappear now? They learned well the workings of the Gestapo and Soviets. People going missing you would think Hillary is running these operations.

  6. According to Rolling Stone magazine, FBI agents raided his upscale Northern Virginia apartment in April. Meek hasn’t been seen since.”
    Then –
    “According to the Rolling Stone article, justifying such drastic action against a journalist would require evidence leading the Justice Department to conclude that Meeks was either working for a hostile foreign power, a terrorist organization or involved in the exploitation of minors.”
    Pretty slick –
    Rolling Stone shilling for the FBI and getting accusations into print without a shred of evidence.
    So, which of your investigative journalists is working on this. Surely if you know what evidence would be required you must have sources that can tell you where Meek is.
    And where are Meek’s local police? Don’t they investigate apparent kidnappings in their jurisdiction?
    What about ABC? They just blow off the disappearance of one of their journalists? This whole thing sounds like a novel about the Soviet Union. Stalin lives and everyone is afraid to say so.

    • Hitler overreached and ultimately failed because he wasn’t as canny as his rivals, equally as anti-democratic as he was (i.e. Stalin et al). Have said it before and will try to comment in a way that is acceptable to whoever curates these comments, my terrific teacher in high school, Margaret White, explained that it is like one big circle (and she diagrammed it so) with governments that go either further left or right – the further out they go, the more they wind up circling around to the very SAME THING! Oppression of thought, speech, movement, a Nazi/Soviet regime in which ordinary citizens have essentially NO rights, certainly no right to speak any truth but the “truth” that the government, those in charge, have them parrot back, i.e. the current gov’t. in China, North Korea, Iran, others. Look at the current American MSM, many government entities (FBI, CIA, etc.) whose people working within are afraid to say anything, anything at all that is negative about those they work for! We are had, already, and it would take a total change of government back to the America we all once knew to end this…stuff – like, you know, the “MAGA” Americans” our current not-a-POTUS has tried to demonize, and I don’t necessarily mean another term for Mr. Trump so much as those who, from the top down, won’t tolerate the lies and deception we’ve faced for so long now. I long for that, hope for that, try to VOTE for that as all American citizens should do…

  7. I trust the Democrat House and Senate will be investigating the disappearance of a journalist from one of their captive media networks. Right?

  8. Has Meeks been charged with anything? Where is he? Guantanamo? Delaware? Quantico? 935 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C.? The Lubyanka?

  9. So the ‘Land of the Free’ has morphed into a totalitarian, Banana Republic? I escaped from the Communist Paradise of Hungary, at age 14 in 1956, that was in the bloody hands of Hungarian Communist Jews, who kept that Christian nation in the Soviet Orbit, by jailing, torturing, murdering tens of thousands of Men, Women and Children from 1945 to ’89, in order to keep that unfortunate nation behind the Iron Curtain! I served over 20 years in the US Army, retired in 1983, never in my wildest dream would have come up with, what have been unleashed on the US of A, since the ‘False Flag’ attack of the Controlled Demolition of the WTC. Towers #1, #2, #7 and the murder of some 3000 innocent Collateral Victims, most of them American Citizens, that our (?) Congress hasn’t looked into/INVESTIGATED, in the past 2 decades, while THEY Investigated ‘everything under the Sun’, in that time! WHY? Is it TRUE that the Greatest Crime EVER on American Soil, was accomplished, to a demonic-roaring success with/ by the co-operation of our FBI and other City and State of New York Security Agencies! Congress, FBI, CIA, DOJ. when will be the time RIGHT, RIPE, to Investigate the ”9/11/2001″ Crime Against the American People? I am Waiting still hoping that the US isn’t just another Dictatorial Entity!! Remember the “USS LIBERTY”?

    • You know darn well why….now we the American People need to DO something about it! Starts with the vote – everyone who is responsible for the current Nazi/fascist/Stalinist regime needs to go!

  10. So, an “investigative journalist” who was involved in researching our withdrawal from Afghanistan, among other things perhaps, has been accused of — what? Having “classified information” on his laptop. Hmmmm…sounds familiar. The sooner this man is found, protected from the Feds and everyone else who would have his hide and give him the opportunity to TELL THE TRUTH, the better. Sounds like our US government HAS BEEN weaponized to destroy its enemies. And they DARE to call “MAGA Americans” the enemy! Wow. Just – WOW!

  11. P.S. Of course, our government SHOULD be able to protect itself from its REAL enemies, from without or within, but when ordinary citizens (incl. one former POTUS…maybe?!) are demonized and deemed the enemy because they oppose the current regime, we DO have a problem, America. We need to WAKE UP and call it what it is, return the country to a free one, period.

    • Those ‘detainees’ are the Victims of the Jan. 6 ‘Show Tials’, conducted by the DemocRATS a la what was going on behind the Iron Curtain in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union! The ‘Land of the Free’ has morphed into a similar sinister Entity! Our “Lady of Justice” isn’t BLIND!!

  12. I hope this man is still alive to finish his story. I wouldn’t put anything past this administration. Mr Meeks should make contact and give information to bring the dirty little secrets back to life.
