Scientology has finally achieved "safepointing" the US government. It has been a dream for decades and the closest they have ever come in the past is getting John Travolta and Tom Cruise to canvass the State Dept to condemn Germany for "discriminating" against scientology in their country. With the election of Donald Trump, two high profile scientologists, Grant Cardone and Trish Duggan now have direct access to the President of the US. And he will dictate any actions of the Department of Justice -- his Attorney General will be a lackey no matter who it is. If he tells them to jump they … [Read more...]
An Update
I have just uploaded am putting out a series of short YouTube videos on my channel to update why I have been somewhat invisible recently. For all the people who have sent me messages of support and concern, this will explain, plus a lot more. This is the first of them -- you can access the rest on my YouTube channel from this one. I make reference to some things in these videos and am including them below: Redacted Colombia Email Tampa Bay Times article Sociopathy Series Sociopathy: What is a Sociopath?

Freedom Magazine Off the Deep End…
There have been plenty of unhinged articles published in Freedom magazine over the years, but this one just popped up and it is so absurd I thought it was perhaps a joke. Scientology has a long and well documented history of smearing reporters who say things they don't like. From Paulette Cooper to Anderson Cooper, Alex Gibney and John Sweeney... They have set their sights on Martha Ross who writes for the San Jose Mercury News. They target her for having an undisclosed "conflict of interest" in writing anything about scientology because: "Martha Ross and her husband, John Sterns, … [Read more...]

Grant Cardone Sucking Up To Donald Trump Hard
Grant Cardone is a big fan of Donald Trump like his big Scientology donor friend Trish Duggan. Cardone recently flew to California to speak at Trump’s Coachella rally. He is now promoting his appearance at an upcoming Madison Square Garden rally. I usually try to steer clear of things political here as it is generally off topic and tends to descend into back and forth name calling. But this stuff if putting it front and center, so here goes with my observations. As I have said before, many Scientologists are one issue voters — the fear and hatred of psychiatry … [Read more...]
Remember 6000 Predicted to Hunker in Ft Harrison Auditorium?
Remember the recent post (Hurricane Milton) where Lorianne Isaacson said there would be 6000 people sheltering in the Ft Harrison for the hurricane. It was ridiculous. Now the reality of the "6000" is laid bare. The idea that scientology is large and expanding, even in Clearwater, where they have been circling the wagons for years, is disproven daily. But not before a bit more magical scientology thinking about "admiring" the hurricane away. … [Read more...]

Scientology’s Cowardly Whales
See most recent post: Scientology’s Cowardly Celebrities. Along with those celebrities is the other category of major enablers who remain conspicuously silent in the face of the abuses; the financial supporters, especially the "Whales." Here is a list of the biggest supporters of the IAS Not by any means complete and it excludes anyone who has given less than $1 million (there are many). Most of those named below have also give a lot of cash to the “Ideal Org,” L. Ron Hubbard Hall, Planetary Dissemination, “4th Dynamic: campaigns” and various other fundraisers. The figures are just their … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Cowardly Celebrities
by Leah Remini and Mike Rinder The recent controversy surrounding Emily Armstrong’s role as the new lead vocalist for Linkin Park, paired with her status as a practicing scientologist, sparked public debate. Yet the real issue remains largely overlooked: scientology’s deeply ingrained culture of abuse, secrecy, protectionism, harassment, and retaliation. Members like Armstrong choose to remain silent, tacitly supporting an organization that not only condones but perpetuates a range of abuses. Armstrong’s post about not knowing Masterson’s history as a serial rapist is deliberately mislead … [Read more...]
Hurricane Milton Update
It was a wet and windy night but apart from a lot of debris and no power we came through unscathed. Sadly, the same can’t be said for many others in the area — we will only start seeing the extent of the damage now there is light. As always, your kind thoughts and support are much appreciated. … [Read more...]
Hurricane Milton
Hurricane Milton is heading our way -- right into the middle of west Florida. The latest tracking from the Nation Hurricane Center shows it making landfall around 1am on Thursday morning. It is currently a Cat 5 -- though expected to lower to a Cat 3 before landfall (though these predictions can be wrong). Either way, it is a major storm. I have been trying to answer as many texts and emails as I can from people wishing us well and that we remain safe. Our home is NOT in an evacuation zone and we are not in danger of flooding. It is a brick construction and won't get blown off it's … [Read more...]
The Great Hubbard Archives Scam
One of the great scams Hubbard and scientology has engaged in is the "Archives Project." The pitch: the scribblings of L. Ron Hubbard are so important to the universe that they must be preserved for all time so when life returns to earth after the inevitable nuclear holocaust has turned it into a wasteland, the "tech" will be there for them to start over again. To that end, Hubbard designated the bulk of his estate be allocated to an organization that would be created for this purpose. This is the "Church of Spiritual Technology" or CST. Hubbard's money could not be transferred to CST … [Read more...]
Scientology and Litigation
I came across this on the STAND website. As with everything they ever utter, it is laced with falsehoods. What is the Scientology position regarding litigation? During the history of the Church, some individuals sought to make money from unfounded allegations, but the Church successfully defended against those claims. Well, not exactly. Julie Christofferson won a massive judgment, so did Larry Wollersheim. The family of Lisa McPherson extracted a lrge settlement, so did many victims of Narconon. Litigation involving Churches of Scientology in America is virtually nonexistent today. Only … [Read more...]
LA is on the Verge of a Moral Revival
So they finally admit that the numerous previous fundraising efforts that brought about "mass distribution" of WTH in LA accomplished nothing. They are now going to begin bringing about the revival. Here is what their press release says: Los Angeles is on the verge of a moral revival, and Artists for a Better World International (AFABW) is leading the way! The dynamic LA-based non-profit is creating a buzz by distributing The Way to Happiness, a common sense guide to better living. According to AFABW’s President, Barbara C., the response to the custom-printed covers of The Way to H … [Read more...]
