One of our Special Correspondents sent me an excerpt of Miscavige's only print media interview. It is of interest for a number of reasons, but most significantly, it makes clear why he is scared of the press. He has no control over revising history with the media as he does with his internal public (try to find an event video in any org on the planet that has Heber Jentzsch or Ray Mithoff in it.... they have been written out of history). There is no mystery why the DVDs of his speeches are guarded like the Crown Jewels and extraordinary measures are taken to prevent anyone from recording wh … [Read more...]

Scientology Photoshops Audience for Miscavige Event
When you try to claim that a crowd of 400-500 is actually a crowd of 2,500, Photoshop is your best friend. The Radical Church of Scientology is no stranger to photoshopping audiences and their "man with no head" audience member went viral after the 1999 New Years Event. Scientology Audience Doctored. However with all the attention on the Portland ("Scientology City") opening and the months of pressure to have Scientologists from all over the world fly in to puff up the crowd at the event, apparently the disappointment of unused chairs and low attendance was too much. So when the o … [Read more...]
David Miscavige Paranoia At Fever Pitch In "Scientology City"
See the idiotic lengths Corporate Scientology went to in order to try to prevent Mark Bunker from shooting the ribbon cutting ceremony of the "Ideal Org" in "Scientology City" (known to the rest of the world as Portland Oregon). Tony Ortega has had a running commentary provided by Mark Bunker documenting the events on his blog. One has to ask the question: Why bother? Miscavige jets into Portland to speak, along with some other duped "OLs" to "the public" on THE STREET. Yet he is absolutely paranoid about Mark Bunker accessing a vantage point to film the proceedings. The church p … [Read more...]
Dead Agent – David Miscavige and His Dead Orgs
Our man in Sweden, Dan Koon, has sent us a copy of the "Dead Agent Pack" being distributed to those who dare question the wisdom of David Miscavige's Ideal Org Strategy. As D/A packs go, it leaves a lot to be desired. In fact, it is really lame. It could be Exhibit 1 in a presentation to prove that Ideal Orgs are a squirrel, off policy "bright idea" by the Chairman of the MEST Universe. Of course it can be tough to try to find quotes to "Dead Agent" clear LRH Policy. It's sort of like the North Koreans trying to "D/A" the "enemy line" that they live in a closed society with impoverished, br … [Read more...]
Narconon — Miscavige's Worst Nightmare Coming True
See Tony Ortega's breaking story on the raid on Narconon Atlanta. This is Miscavige's worst nightmare. Mary Rieser and anyone else at Narconon Atlanta will likely be thrown under the bus if ONLY because Miscavige figures they are so tainted that ANYTHING done to try to help defend them will blow back on the church and him because this whole Narconocalypse is being watched SO closely by the media. I suspect his biggest concern right now is that this is a breach in the wall that has held back law enforcement/govt agencies from conducting … [Read more...]
The New Miscavige Birthday Game!
Remember when the LRH Birthday Game was about giving LRH the birthday gift he wanted? Org Expansion... Well, like a lot of other things in Miscavige Corporate Scientology, there's a new sheriff in town and the organization is being modeled in his image. Of course, there is no grand announcement that "the old birthday game is no more" it's more subtle. Like "Command Intention" morphed from "LRH intention" to "COB intention" and Miscavige gradually assumed the role of "finder of lost tech" to "refiner of tech" to … [Read more...]
David Miscavige-Divide and Rule
There is an old principle employed by Roman Emperors, “Divide and conquer/divide and rule.” This is an underlying theme of the reign of the Emperor of Scientology, David Miscavige. The basic idea is to keep various factions of your empire uninformed about the goings-on in other areas. Thus, no mass uprising can occur. You don’t want disaffection with the leadership to spread, if it arises anywhere, it must be stamped out immediately and at once and ensure no other area hears about it to plant seeds of discontent. George Orwell’s 1984 and the brilliant movie The Lives of Others detail methods … [Read more...]
On David Miscavige’s Behavior
I wrote this for Marty's blog in January 2010. I had occasion to pull it out for someone to read and I re-read it myself. Probably many of you saw this when it was originally published, but there are new readers here and I think it worth putting out again. One thing I noted was how little I addressed the subject of identification with MEST -- [they are] close to MEST and have a very solid agreement with MEST. I have subsequently come to realize just how pervasive Miscavige's agreement with, in fact worship of, MEST is. You can also see more about David Miscavige obsessions here. Mike R … [Read more...]
David Miscavige Is A Squirrel — L. Ron Hubbard Says So
There is a constant stream of demands for funds from Scientologists to finance David Miscagive's follies. From his PI's and rented Peeping Tom outposts (spying on detractors) to the waste of useless printed promotion and massive numbers of useless books sent to libraries. But that sort of insanity should be fairly easy to see. There is a more covert but perhaps more pervasive side of the story of financial crimes. One that is highlighted by a widely circulated email from the relentless "fundraisers" for "Ideal Orgs." Just as with the LRH Birthday Game, they are foisting off apparent LRH q … [Read more...]
The Miscavige Birthday Game
Today it seems more likely that those no longer in the church will recall the actual “LRH Birthday Game” than those who have suffered through years of David Miscavige's propaganda by redefinition of terms. Described in LRHED 339R and 339R-1 the real Birthday Game address the subject of the “gift” LRH wanted for his birthday from Scientology org staff. It was specifically NOT MEST. Addressed to staff, he talked about expanding production across all Divisions and even doing programs to accomplish this in each Department. He made an important point that staff should be well paid and this was … [Read more...]
