This is the second post concerning the Guardian Office drills sent to me by a dear friend. The first is Scientology Fair Game: Hate/Love & Valuable/Protect. As with the previous post, I begin with the Hubbard directive, again written on 28 March 1972. This one is titled Intelligence Principles. I have highlighted key passages. Confidential INTELLIGENCE PRINCIPLES When Intelligence fails it becomes a PR matter. When PR fails it becomes a Legal matter. When Legal loses or declines it becomes an LRH matter. It will be found … [Read more...]

Leah & Mike Are Back!
A new video on YouTube this morning. Leah and I catch up on things, expose scientology efforts to protect a sexual predator and talk about future plans... The documents in the video are below in the sequence we covered them: 4 April 2006 5 April 2006 6 April 2003 8 April 2006 James Barbour is back fundraising for scientology (2014): Hobnobbing with other scientology celebs in 2019: The Broadway article: Barbour article … [Read more...]
US Department of Justice Scathing Takedown of Scientology
This is one of the most damning documents in the history of scientology. It summarizes the incriminating files seized in the FBI raid conducted in 1977. The raids in Washington DC and Los Angeles garnered thousands of documents which were combed through by DOJ lawyers as part of the prosecution of Mary Sue Hubbard and her top deputies in the Guardian's Office. Ultimately they pled guilty in October 1979 -- Mary Sue received a 5 year prison sentence and a $10,000 fine. L. Ron Hubbard was an unindicted co-conspirator -- he had kept his name off GO documents, and those charged fell on their … [Read more...]
Brian Sheen Anniversary
This is a post sent to me a couple of days ago by my old friend Brian Sheen. I was out of town and could not get it up on the blog, but the message remains the same. Today is the 45 birthday of my daughter, Springsong Tawna Sheen, now Atkinson-Baker. However, instead of celebrating the miracle of her birth, I am mourning the horror of her death. Spring has been missing from my life for 7 years now and I have not heard from her once. Legally, after 7 years, a person who disappears and is not heard from, is legally declared dead. I painstakingly have been forced to accept this reality; may she … [Read more...]

There is no new podcast this week due to the Labor Day holiday. I thought it worth listing all the diverse list of podcast guests and topics we have done so far. There are more to come.

Episode 29: Journalist Tony Ortega
Leah and I talk to our old friend Tony Ortega this week. Tony has been reporting on scientology for decades and as anyone who reads this blog likely knows, he writes pieces every day relating to scientology at the Underground Bunker. This is the most complete repository of reporting on scientology anywhere. It is an invaluable source of accurate information about scientology. Though never a scientologist, over the years, Tony has become extremely well-versed in the all things scientology and Hubbard, beyond a surface understanding, he grasps the nuances and makes use of his … [Read more...]
Scientology is “Fun”
STAAD puppet Rodger Clark has produced a "sequel" to his earlier effort claiming scientology is "fun." He claims his earlier piece "struck a chord" with readers... Apparently the reader(s) is me. Just me. I had responded to his "Scientology is Freedom, Freedom is Fun," with my take on his assertions "Scientology is a Happy Place." It seems Rodger was not too happy about what I had to say, as he quickly launches into a smear of me. Not much "fun" or "happiness" on display from Rodger, just a whole lot of name-calling. He gets underway with this (after his happy … [Read more...]
Episode 4: Scientology’s War on a Holocaust Survivor (with Paulette Cooper)
The newest episode of the Scientology Fair Game podcast features one of my favorite scientology survivors, Paulette Cooper. Her life story is amazing, and if you have not read Tony Ortega's excellent The Unbreakable Miss Lovely, I recommend you do so. The story of what scientology did to try to destroy her is unbelievable. Literally. And unless the FBI had recovered documents in the raid on scientology in 1977, what scientology had done to her was not believed by anyone -- it was so far-fetched it seemed it could only have been lifted from the pages of a cheap spy novel. Paulette … [Read more...]
Episode 3: Scientology’s War on the Media with Richard Behar
We were very fortunate to speak with Richard Behar on this week's episode of the Fair Game podcast. Rich, along with Pauletter Cooper (who will feature in an upcoming episode) is a poster child for scientology Fair Game against journalists. He is an award-winning investigative journalist who first wrote about scientology in 1986 for Forbes magazine in an article entitled The Prophet and Profits of Scientology. His most famous scientology piece was the 1991 Time magazine cover story, The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power. The subhead on his article pretty much sums up … [Read more...]
