Certainly, mostly true. Tagline says it with every post.

You have to ask yourself, what kind of information did he have that would warrant this kind of response, it must be really explosive.

Wanna get Meeks for espionage? Find data on his computer, classify that data and voila, he has classified data on his computer! Espionage charges to follow.

What's that, you say? It was not classified when he put it on there? It is still available to the public? It does not matter. The punishment is the process.

Yep. I think that is likely.

The politician who disappears won’t be just any politician. It will be someone important...important enough to send an unmistakable message to Americans who might consider resisting.

This stuff has been going on for a long time—but brainwashed Americans are deep in denial.

You never know when the Deep State might decide you are their target—if you stumble on to one of their secrets:

I get all that but to basically make the guy disappear is a whole new level to government retaliation against reporters, so much so that even the newspaper he works for is letting it slide without raising hell about it.

“….and an upcoming book on the military’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.”

Ah, I see the reason for his disappearance.

I don’t hold RS as a journalistic source. In fact, my perception is that it’s a propaganda mouthpiece for the government.

In that light, the fact that this article was published at all spells a deafening warning to journalists who work the fringes of their ‘network’ of ‘news’.

Anyone who thinks the deep state is one, big happy family is a moron. The internecine deep state war is accelerating and about to go hot.

Plus, she’s a propagandist and populist writer, far from an investigative reporter capable of what’s outlined in this piece

IF this guy is still alive. Big on IF. He is in a prison in Egypt or some other foreign detention center.

He must have been on to something really bad that happened in Afghanistan prior to the pull out.

Wasn’t there a movie about fifteen years ago about a journalist snatched by the CIA?

Definitely not the first journalist raided or spied on by the federal government. Off the top of my head there’s Sharyl Attkisson (CBS), James Rosen (FOX), James O’Keefe (Veritas) and I’m sure others.

I’m also sure that we haven’t heard the last of these . . .

Partner, we have not had any true journalists in a long, long time.
