Why? Because Ron pretended he knew everything... Seriously? This is good news to shout from the rooftops? Halloween is a bigger deal than Ron's Birthday or the IAS events? I don't think so... Keep those cards and letters coming... Not getting much input it seems Really worried by the lack of activity... The reality of life on staff... ASHO They used to train the "Dukes of the auditor elite," now it's DJ's, pumpkin decorating and some "success stories" from the AO across the … [Read more...]

More Panic in the Bubble
The best indicator of panic in the bubble is that Miscavige orders the "Turning Point" video be reshown. In his mind, it is the "proof" that he is leading scientology to the promised land. It is the proof that he accomplished something L. Ron Hubbard couldn't do. It's the proof that despite all the bad news about scientology in the world, Miscavige knows what he is doing and everything is going to turn out OK. In reality, it is the proof that he is seriously worried that too many rats are jumping off the sinking ship. The ad time they are buying isn't doing it. The denials in the press … [Read more...]
Yes for Clearwater
Mark Bunker sent me the two videos below and asked that I share them here. I gladly do so and wholeheartedly support this effort. Citizens of Clearwater will vote on November 8 to allow the city to sell two parcels of land to developers (Mark explains the process in the second video). They are planning major construction that will bring people to downtown Clearwater -- despite scientology's best efforts to buy up all available properties and keep Clearwater on track to achieve their goal as "the first scientology city." This plan will throw a major wrench, or more aptly a whole … [Read more...]
What Happened to the IAS Event?
The annual IAS event has come and gone once again without an actual "Int Event." The reason for no events for the past few years was supposedly COVID related. But that is no longer an issue, the world has basically returned to normal. Yet no event. This is the BIG event each year for money-making at the event itself and lining up future revenue with re-showings of the events and videos and "medal-winners." There have been no IAS Freedom Medal winners for 3 years now. The only explanation for this is that the COB is scared to appear anywhere in public for fear that he will be … [Read more...]
Where Did Scientology’s Spokespeople Go?
You used to see scientology spokespersons in the media. I was one of them for many years. So was Heber Jentzsch. I escaped. Heber was put in The Hole and became so physically incapacitated he could no longer appear in public (and Miscavige didn't trust him anyway). Tommy Davis was the "it boy" for a while, but he also departed, though he remains a Miscavige brown-noser ion his post-Sea Org life. If you look on the scientology website they list a number of "spokespersons" who actually don't speak: Karin Pouw was never allowed to talk publicly, though her name … [Read more...]
More Panic in Los Angeles
This is clearly part of the internal propaganda campaign that Miscavige is implementing to try to paper over the large cracks in the PR dam for the scientology public. The bad news is rolling in day-by-day, especially in LA. So, time to send out the SuMP team and film "massive dissemination" happening at "Dodger Station." That they have to beg for people to show up so that their activities can be filmed is VERY telling. That their message is now "We're here" -- as in, "Not YET gone" is pretty telling also. The walls are closing in on scientology. Winter is coming. … [Read more...]
The Yingling Factor
As everyone who reads this blog is probably aware, CBS Mornings featured a piece on A Billion Years yesterday morning. If you haven't seen it, you can watch it here. The piece was delayed for some time as scientology went into a full court press to prevent it from airing. They sent Monique Yingling to New York, with a delegation of scientologists and another lawyer to dissuade CBS airing it using the usual threats and false claims. In the end, when they realized they were not going to succeed in spiking the story altogether, Yingling was put forth as the scientology … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Why is "Graduation" never just graduation? Because they don't have enough people completing anything. The results are in? Form where? Did they take a poll there too and discover it has the worst reputation of any group in the country? What it's like a the top of the Bridge No different, you just have less money. The Bay Area is Dead They're going to try to revive it. How strange, there are 4 ideal orgs there... Raven Kane (Campbell) has a new name? Why? Effective Management? Howe to write a … [Read more...]
Scientology: Trying to Buy Their Way Out of Disaster
Things are really not going well in the shrinking world of scientology. First, the release of A Billion Years. The scientology response? Buying Google ads to promote their smear sites which have a flurry of new content. A blizzard of legal threats letters and delegations of lawyers and scientology officials sent across the country to "handle the flap." Then the upcoming vote in Clearwater for a development plan that David Miscavige must HATE -- it will result in two large condo towers right in front of the Ft Harrison, and a huge increase in the number of prying eyes in downtown … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
There is a bit of a backlog of Funnies. The ones that were too outdated I sent to the trash file. There are quite a lot, two weeks worth in one episode! Smile away... They're "On The Plaque" until they're not... These things are VERY temporary. The "Honor Roll" On it until you're not. These are the marks who have contributed to making Australia the first "ideal continent"... Big Thumbs Up Come on in, the water's fine. Not that many regges... Chicago is big So I joined staff. Cincinnati needs staff desperately, their … [Read more...]
