Midwest Unite Giving money to "build a great Midwest" by finally renovating the Battle Creek building purchased nearly 20 years ago -- they should be trying to open some orgs in the Midwest as most Midwest states have no scientology org at all. Poor Mike Blake This guy gets hit up for everything in Columbus. Why isn't the ChanMan ever participating in giving his money? Columbus org paying for Battle Creek Why? They're supposed to have opened dozens of missions by now that should be turned into orgs (remember Miscavige's infamous "arrow" graphic?) -- … [Read more...]
Scientology Hall of Fame Grifters Come Together at Flag
Alfraudi and Tony Mo holding court Two of the scientology Hall of Fame grifters came together recently at Flag: Alfreddie (affectionately known to his friends as Alfraudie) Johnson and Tony Muhammad (Tony Mo or now known as Abdul Malik Sayyid Muhammad) We haven't seen them for a while -- though both were once very prominent and both are IAS Freedom Medal Award Winners. The constant promotion of the Nation of Islam in the scientology world seems to have come to a virtual standstill, so it was a bit of a surprise to see these two pop up, along with Sister Nayirrah Tivica … [Read more...]
Some Scenes from the Circus Tent
The IAS circus came to town, complete with R6 angels, helicopters, movies everyone was required to watch. The sheeple filed in, subjected themselves to 3 hours of loud noises, flashing symbols and lies about their accomplishments, dutifully stood and cheered, whistled and applauded at all the appropriate times, then filed out again, re-dedicated to the idea that they alone are saving mankind. A few notable images below. Some of them we showed on the The Aftermath fundraiser yesterday. Mr. Tom Cruise was in attendance -- one person (appears to be one the Freedom medal … [Read more...]

An auditor rally... Actually ANYONE is invited, friends, family and anyone who "want" to be auditors. Just trying to get some people in the door to reg at Flag. Starting the Cocoon Squad in Austin now Come for the food... Stay for the regges -- they will be there. A shot of "theta" at Brighton Theta being defined as the "secret to money" $50 for brunch??? I'd hit the Island Way Grill just over the causeway-- their mimosas are real, their selection of food blows this away, it's cheaper and there are no … [Read more...]

Three? Not just scientology -- the only path to Planetary Clearing? Maybe NOI? Buddhism? Columbus is back With a Dianetics potluck. They're really going to town celebrating the most important book in the history of mankind.... This is the "huge" Canada Ideal Org convention.. The one they held at the airport. They had a penguin/dolphin/killer whale thingie... A moose... A few people -- many appeared to be staff.. And of course, people on stilts wearing a hockey mask... Talk about … [Read more...]

Alfraudie is back! Seems like his scandals with the WLC are old enough that he can be associated with again. And Stacy Francis too... Where did they find her? Heavy rains washed away the topsoil and she appeared? This is a "beautiful briefing" All about how they need your money Another one ripped from a different org... Just a BBQ? No regging? Hahahaha Bodhi Elfman in the house... In freefall apparently? Apparently they just think of words that sound cool: "No Limits" is meaningless unless they are … [Read more...]
Tony Mo is Back!
Haven't seen mention of the notorious Tony Mo -- Tony Muhammad (he now goes by Abdul Malik Sayyid Muhammad) -- for some time. He suddenly re-appears at an event hawking "Super Power"... For those unfamiliar, Tony is a big cheese in the Nation of Islam and was the original grifter who came into the scientology world through one of scientology's great scamsters, the Reverend Alfreddie Johnson. Alfraudie helped introduce the NOI to the world of scientology, a marriage made in hell. Tony was awarded the prestigious and coveted (at least inside the bubble) IAS Freedom Medal... I have … [Read more...]
Scientology Anti-Semitism Hypocrisy — Using the ADL
This is a couple of weeks old now, but the hypocrisy remains current and fresh... Scientology seeking to gain credibility for itself by pretending to align with the ADL. Of course, scientology CLAIMS they "stand with the ADL" and are champions who fight at every turn against anti-Semitism. But what is the real story? Scientology fully supports the Nation of Islam, and presented its highest recognition (the "IAS Freedom Medal") to Tony Muhammad (he now goes by Abdul Malik Sayyid Muhammad). This is very well documented in numerous previous articles on this blog (and elsewhere) … [Read more...]
The Scientology/NOI Divorce is On Hold?
The signals are getting mixed in the ongoing saga of the marriage of inconvenience between scientology and NOI. The breakup seemed almost a fait accompli when Tony Muhammad and Alfrauddie Johnson were uninvited to the annual IAS fundraising extravaganza at St Hill in November. A sure sign of trouble to not have recent medal winners in attendance and participating in the photo ops with Dear Leader David Miscavige. It was understandable given the anti-semitic radioactive glow of the NOI and TonyMo in particular. And the criminal prosecution of Rizza and Hanan Islam for defrauding the … [Read more...]
Rev. Alfraudie Johnson
Recent posts on Tony Ortega's site include some excellent first-hand reporting from Jeffrey Augustine on the ground in criminal court in Los Angeles. Hana Islam and her son Rizza are in deep hot water. They have allegedly been engaged in a massive fraudulent scheme, bilking the government out of millions at the World Literacy Crusade. The always dapper Rev. Alfreddie Johnson is the founder and big cheese of the WLC. He was married to Hanan and claims credit for raising Rizza as his "son." Somehow, like a Teflon Don, he has managed to escape indictment. I have written about him … [Read more...]
