This is the best they can do? A pixilated image of something they claim is Idaho, above some printing offering a scholarship to ASHO? And this is for "our Mission Expansion." According to FB, Jacqui lives in Sherman Oaks? I wonder if Idaho ranks so highly in the Desirable States stakes because there is one of the Scientology clear states? Meaning there is no Scientology outpost after 70 years of “unprecedented expansion”? There are plenty of other states on that list with no orgs, some may have tiny missions open a couple of hours a week: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Ind … [Read more...]
The Vacant Valley
The mighty Valley Ideal Org -- the biggest and best ideal org on earth (according to their own hype -- is, like all other "ideal orgs," empty. How do we know? As has become normal -- they have announced it on social media. They have to resort to Facebook to find a twin for someone on Objectives? They don't have any other students available in the org? This 'ideal org" that sits in the middle of the self-proclaimed "largest concentration of scientologists on earth" in the biggest Class V org (square footage wise) on earth and the midst of "unprecedented" levels of expansion and … [Read more...]
More Hype = More Fail
A recent leak from inside the bubble inadvertently disclosed the state of scientology “expansion.” Now we have more. These statements are from a recent “briefing” (ideal org fundraiser) where they have to walk a fine line: on one hand they need to maintain the party line that everything in the world of scientology is going gang-busters, on the other hand there's a desperate need for money right now, right now, right now because the world is coming to a rapid end. Then again, the sheeple are so conditioned to swallowing bs they accept even the most blatantly obvious lies and contrad … [Read more...]

National Geographic on Scientology: It’s Not Pretty
This is a current special edition of National Geographic about Secret Societies and Cults. It's broken into 3 parts. The "Modern Era" (part 3) includes: The Italian Mafia Skull and Bones The Chinese Triads Opus Dei The Priory of Sion The Red Brigades & Red Army Faction Scientology The Knights of Malta There is a 4 page spread on scientology -- two are full page photos. It mentions The Aftermath -- I have highlighted it. They have some minor things wrong, but generally it is very negative and indicates what terrible PR scientology has these … [Read more...]
Scientology Continues to Fail in Australia’s Capital
The "ideal org" charade goes on and on and on. Surely someone needs to get some control over their promotional items. This one says everything that needs to be said about scientology "expansion." They have invested millions for a building and they have 7 staff . This is not even a Dianetics Counseling Group, let alone a Mission. Remember when they used to promote the upcoming ideal orgs with shots of dozens of staff waving on the steps -- Valley and Tampa and London etc. All those orgs are dead as doornails despite having much larger fields (I would guess the size of the Central f … [Read more...]
Scientology France: Fraud, Death and Fury
Please read this excellent story by Stefani Hutchison, published by Alex Barnes-Ross on his Scientology Business site. It's a perfect follow up to my post from yesterday. … [Read more...]
Paris Ideal Org Is Also Happening
It's not just Chicago that is really happening for real this time no joke. Paris is opening in January (coinciding with hell freezing over...) The hype has begun. But their preparations are just a few years behind... They are apparently now starting their "Files Project" (which you will see they promote as a "unique project"??) and they are trying to recruit people from outside the country to come and do it. Like every org since the beginning of orgs, they cannot keep the ridiculous amounts of filing required by Hubbard's "advanced management technology" current. And when required to … [Read more...]
Scientology Indicted for Tax Evasion
After a lengthy investigation following a 2017 raid, Hungarian authorities issued indictments and levied $1.7 million assessment against scientology in Budapest for engaging in a conspiracy to avoid paying tax on income from the sale of books and services. We talk with Peter Bonyai, who has been instrumental in bringing about action against scientology abuses in Hungary. Peter got into Scientology in 1995 right after completing high school. He joined the local mission as a staff member and 2 years later joined the Sea Org at the local liaison/management base in … [Read more...]
Flag: Pan-Denominational Fundraising
Scientology, according to Hubbard is pan-denominational and is thus harmonious and accepting of all other religions, in fact it embraces them all. In Hubbard's view, scientology is the culmination and is senior to all other religions as it provides the answers that all other religions have sought. He expressed this concept in the photo shoot he did with history's "thinking men" and "religious leaders" all coming to see scientology as the answer -- a composition he included in the What Is Scientology tome (he took the photos of all these characters and then had them converted into artistic … [Read more...]
Chicago’s “LAST Big Recruitment Event”
Everything is "GO" in Chicago. Not. They send out the weirdest messages... Last week they were telling everyone they had to go to LA for the New Year's event -- so they can cheer and wave banners when Miscavige, for the second year running, announces Chicago ideal org is "going to open." Now they are demanding everyone attend this briefing to hear someone "direct from Dominica." Is this like "Straight Outa Compton"? AND 2 "incredible speakers" who shall remain anonymous because they are just not known by anyone's at all. Then there are the "fly in prospects" because they don't … [Read more...]
Leah and Mike Discuss Scientology’s Big Lie
Breaking down the facts that have now been revealed proving scientology was lying (and KNEW it) when they claimed Leah Remini and I had "incited" the murder of a scientology security guard in Australia in 2019. They had ALL the facts, but until now, they had remained secret. Their brazen lying relied on the documents that have now come to light never being public. This is yet another example of Fair Game. See my earlier post with excerpts from the documents: Scientology's "Blood on Your Hands" Lie Exposed Wikipedia entry on Fair Game which includes a brief history of infamous … [Read more...]
The LRH Hall/New Flag AO Are Coming… For Sure. Promise.
They have been fundraising for the "LRH Hall" for decades -- it's a white elephant project that is simply a sinkhole for money to show they are "spending on charitable activities." It is a completely unnecessary project, they can't even fill Ruth Eckerd Hall for their events these days. Of course, they haven't even STARTED the building. No surprise, once they actually begin, their income will go down. Remember how long they dragged out the SP (Super Power) Building -- Miscavige held the "groundbreaking" ceremony in 1998. Then dragged out the start of the building project for years and … [Read more...]
Panic Before the Scientology New Year’s Event
David Miscavige is back for the big "New Year" bash at the Shrine Auditorium in LA next Saturday (Dec 16th -- they do everything differently in scientology). It seems, that in the "Scientology capital of the world" they are worried they cannot scrape together enough scientologists to fill the auditorium. It only holds 6300 -- and yet they are going to extraordinary lengths to bring in out of towners to make sure they at least the lower level of the Shrine. Chicago can't get 100 people to a local event, let alone shipping them off to LA. But the pitch -- from CO FSSO less -- "we a … [Read more...]
New Leah & Mike Video: Scientology’s Fair Game Poster Child Caught Trying to Frame Leah
Kendrick (Rick) Moxon is an OT VIII scientologist and an “in-house” lawyer for scientology who maintains an office within the Office of Special Affairs International on the 10th floor of the HGB.

His children are/were SO members. Here is just a brief summary of what Rick Moxon has been involved in. The relentless and unchanging nature of scientology's efforts to harass and destroy those it perceives as ene … [Read more...]
