Elsewhere, he’s parroted falsehoods about Pizzagate

Late last month, NBC News ran a rather shocking story headlined, “
Former ABC investigative journalist pleads guilty to child pornography charges.”
ABC’s senior, Washington DC-based investigative reporter, James Gordon Meek, 53, used to cover national security issues for the network until he resigned last year after his arrest. Meeks notably won an Emmy for his 2017 reporting on the Pulse gay nightclub shooting. Late last month, he pleaded guilty to illegal possession and transportation of child pornography.
Most ironically, and most relevant for the bigger story, Mr. Meek was the reporter who captained the charge to “debunk” the so-called Pizzagate ‘conspiracy theory,’ which arose out of leaked emails from Clinton-advisor John Pederast, I mean Podesta, and claimed that high-ranking democrat officials, including members of Hillary Clinton's campaign, were involved in a child sex trafficking ring operating out of a highly-sketchy pizzeria called Comet Ping Pong located in Washington, D.C.
In Washington, D.C. — coincidentally right where debunking reporter and chronic pedophile Meeks lived.
I made a horrible mistake by pulling up Meek’s case in PACER (the federal court system database), in order to read the arresting FBI agent’s original affidavit. I won’t subject you to the pure, unadulterated evil described in that appalling document, except to say I pray for the FBI agent who had to review the evidence and draft it.
But to give you a general sense of what we’re talking about,
among many other awful things, Mr. Meek’s personal iPhone contained a video of the forcible sodomy of a screaming and crying infant girl, along with the reporter’s unbelievable descriptions of his extreme sexual arousal and grotesque, infuriating rape fantasies of repeating the same act himself.
It also included screenshots of reporter Meek’s chats on kids’ social media platforms, where he was coercing children into sending him naked photos. And that’s probably enough to brief you in.
Significantly, FBI agents found child sexual abuse images and videos going back to at least 2014 — well before Meeks “debunked” the Comet Ping Pong story. In other words, he was doing exactly what he debunked at the time he was debunking it.
(On an aside, in his upcoming sentencing, Meeks faces less prison time than does President Trump.)
I was on the fence about whether to include this story at all, when I did a routine cross-reference search for “ABC child charges.”
I found an epidemic.
Here are
just a few of this week’s headlines that one single search returned:
There were more. Maybe a lot more. I don’t even know how many more, I had to stop scrolling due to running out of time.
In a sense, in hindsight, the Comet Ping Pong conspiracy hypothesis was undoubtedly right. Setting aside the fact it was only “debunked” by people like Meeks with obvious motives to bury the story, in a broader perspective, there clearly is a BIG problem. Is this epidemic of pedophilia the temptation created by (apparently) easily-available CSAM (child sexual abuse material) online? Is it naked trans men at the White House? Is it the legalization and acceptance of atypical sexual practices?
Or is it something else? Is the Nation possessed?
Finally — kudos, once again, to the FBI field agents who carefully planned and executed reporter Meeks’ investigation. FBI leadership has taken a lot of well-earned criticism lately, but there are plenty of good agents still working in the agency. Thank you.
