Miscavige marionette Karin Pinocchio Pouw has issued another patented ad hominem attack to the media as a "response' to the lawsuit filed last Friday. Quote from the Tampa Bay Times article: Church spokeswoman Karin Pouw said Wednesday that the church had not been served with the lawsuit. But she added: "Based on your questions, the complaint filed in Texas is nothing more than a pathetic get-rich scheme cooked up by unemployed blogger Marty Rathbun, a self-admitted suborner of perjury who is now resorting to using his wife in an attempt to extort money from the church." And she is quoted … [Read more...]

Mike Eldredge Letter to David Miscavige & Co.
I have known Mike Eldredge since December 1975 when he and his wife Penny were the first two new recruits to arrive at Flag in Clearwater. At the time the location was still confidential and they had not been told where they were going until they were given tickets at the airport. They were excited to be at Flag, but a little disappointed as they had only come from Miami! Mike went on to become a cramming officer, auditor and C/S who worked on many projects directly for LRH. I did a few Missions with him at various times. This write up only touches upon his history and experience. Perhaps he … [Read more...]
$10,000 Pin Commemorating Miscavige’s Finest Hour
Just when you thought it couldn't get cheesier. Give us $10,000 and we will give you a special pin to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the IAS event. Note, the event was held on 8 October, but the commemorative pin "expires" Thursday 15 August at 2pm! Gimmick much? With this pin, you are being "given the chance" to "be a part of this historic movement." A pin now makes you part of a historic movement? This event was a movement? Maybe they will mint a special "Civil Rights" pin so you can be part of that historic movement too? Oh, that's right, they already have "The Humanitarian" m … [Read more...]
David Miscavige’s Cowed and Ill Associates
L. Ron Hubbard discussed at some length the characteristics of a Suppressive Person or Anti-Social Personality. Way back in 1953 he wrote PAB 13 On Human Behavior which was a precursor to so much that he would codify in the mid 1960’s. It is interesting to read what other scholars of human behavior have to say on the subject, particularly clinical psychologist Martha Stout in her widely recognized book The Sociopath Next Door. Their observations very similar – and yet from such different backgrounds – confirming the accuracy of the observations. For this posting, I focus on one of the ident … [Read more...]
Miscavige The Magnificent
The email below perfectly illustrates the "party lines" that are being pushed within the corporate church to the sheeple. All focus is on the magnificence of Dear Leader -- even the "Ideal Orgs" and "GAG II" take a backseat to recounting the glories of Miscavige. This is no accident. It is completely orchestrated. How ironic the first email comes from Walter Kotric. Kotric was at the Madrid Org grand opening. He was CO CLO EU then too. And he was mercilessly invalidated and screamed at by Miscavige for being a "total fuck up" for not having been involved enough in the Madrid Org … [Read more...]
Shelly Miscavige Why She Stays
Tony Ortega continues on a roll of excellent reporting on the Leah Remini story, and again this morning has another very worthwhile piece. Whatever you may think of his personal views of Scientology (which after all, he IS entitled to), you have to admire his courage, his persistence and the network of sources he has built up over many years who feel he is a safe and reliable outlet for their information. He also writes clearly and well and takes the time to explain and include information to make understandable what can often be an impossibly arcane and confusing subject to the … [Read more...]
Miscavige Waving A Red Flag
The red flag is flying on Miscavige's eroding sandcastle. This email is a sure "tell" that he is concerned. Concerned about his own PR and concerned about how he has not had a June 6th event and doesn't have a date for the "GAT II" big top extravaganza which is obviously going beyond his announced target of "late July." The natives are getting restless so he figures a good dose of Dear Leader in all his glory will help placate the rumblings of discontent. Miscavige considers this 1993 "War Is Over" event his greatest performance and most significant accomplishment. He has directed it be s … [Read more...]
The Sad Story of David Miscavige’s Twin Sister
Joe Childs of the Tampa Bay Times filed a story about Denise Miscavige this evening. You can read it here. Perhaps more than anything, it exposes the hypocrisy of "true believers" who have absolute certainty that they KNOW the answers to all problems in society. The quotes from sworn testimony cited in the article highlight just how unreal this mentality is. I hope this is enough to wake Denise up. And I hope she comes through this OK -- she was the first auditor I ever had in the Sea Org at St Hill in 1973. Her brother (Dave, not Ronnie) is going to rain scorn and hatred upon her for " … [Read more...]
David Miscavige In His Own Words
Dirk Niblick just put up an interesting comment quoting from "The Wake Up Call." For those who may not have heard of this -- though if you spent any time in the church and attended even a single event, it is hard to imagine you have NOT -- it is one of Miscavige's favorite "accomplishments." Written after 9/11 it was intended to be the "Come to Jesus" message for the faithful to get busy. It was mostly written by Dan Sherman. Miscavige wanted to put out the issue, but did not plan on writing it himself. So, he called Marc Yager, Greg Hughes, Guillaume Lesevre, Lyman Spurlock, Ray Mithoff, … [Read more...]
