Something Can Be Done About It

Miscavige The Magnificent

By

The email below perfectly illustrates the "party lines" that are being pushed within the corporate church to the sheeple. All focus is on the magnificence of Dear Leader -- even the "Ideal Orgs" and "GAG II" take a backseat to recounting the glories of Miscavige. This is no accident. It is completely orchestrated. How ironic the first email comes from Walter Kotric.   Kotric was at the Madrid Org grand opening. He was CO CLO EU then too. And he was mercilessly invalidated and screamed at by Miscavige for being a "total fuck up" for not having been involved enough in the Madrid Org … [Read more...]

Voldemort Update 2 August

By

Here is the report from last night's "graduation".... He is turning these into mini "Int events" where He covers every possible piece of information that will keep the local sheeple convinced that all is well inside the sandcastle. He knows that this public, through the PR and goodwill of "Flag" and the "OT Committee" spreads the word far and wide about how spectacular everything is in the world of Scientology under His leadership "following in the footsteps of our Founder, L. Ron Hubbard." So, its a hodge-podge of random stuff that makes it sound like everything is hunky dory. Ideal … [Read more...]

Liar, Liar Your Pants Are On Fire

By

Does KoolAid completely eradicate all memories? Or simply suppress the inclination to ever question contrary facts and lies if they come from He Who Is Infallible? You will probably recall that a few weeks ago, the Silver Anniversary Maiden Voyage was cancelled. Instead there was a special summer event. It was VITALLY important. Promoted heavily for weeks. It turned out to be a "ONE TIME ONLY" showing of what has now been called "The Turning Point" -- the greatest single moment of self-congratulation in a career of patting Himself on the back that is an embarrassment of riches -- the 1993 … [Read more...]

Super Power Grand Opening Hype

By

Lauri "We Are Opening This Year For Sure" Webster is leading the cheering section to get everyone routed onto Purif and Objectives "NOW" so they are "ready for Super Power."   You can read some of her recent emails below starting with the most recent. While they really speak for themselves, I have noted some significant things after each: Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2013 From: Lauri Webster <lauri.w@cos.flag.org>Subject: Important: Grand Opening Data Needed Dear Cornerstone Member, As I told you in my last email, the new Building will be opening beforeOctober (E.g., we will open in S … [Read more...]

Voldemort Update 26 July

By

The hype seems to be slowing down, the gushing praise for Him seems to be subsiding and the insanity of what is "news" seems to be reaching lower levels as each week goes by... Here is last night’s report: IAS Event at Flag: The preparations for the IAS event are well underway. The mega tent is on the way to the US by ship, and due to arrive in 3 weeks to Miami. It will be transported to CW, and then placed between the parking garage and Fort Harrison Avenue. Dave noted that it will be visible to all tourists who are going to the beach, so they will notice the presence of Scientology in the c … [Read more...]

Brainwashing — The Proof

By

The Corporate Church of Scientology is going all out to attempt damage control internally on the withering blasts that have been exposing some of the nasty, not to be spoken about underbelly of life in corporate Scientology. We see the media "handling" of claiming its all just lies made up by a couple of "self-promoting bloggers on the fringe of the internet" or a "small handful of bitter, defrocked apostates", but where the real panic is occurring is in trying to keep the faithful on board. The Ethics Officers are working overtime, but Miscavige's personal troops, the "OT Ambassadors" are … [Read more...]

Pinocchio Pouw “Speaks” UPDATED

By

Miscavige and his pinocchio sockpuppet letter signer, Karin Pouw, are getting closer and closer to calling Leah Remini a liar. Their latest effort at damage control is reported in the NY Post: “We won't dignify the myths, radio gossip, rumors and off-the-wall tabloid tales that have their origins with self-promoting bloggers living on the fringe of the Internet.” Pouw also emphasized, “We would appreciate if you run this verbatim.” The carefully selected words and structure of the sentence is classic Miscavige.  Though thinly veiled, this is not literally a frontal assault on Leah. It blame … [Read more...]

Shelly Miscavige Why She Stays

By

Tony Ortega continues on a roll of excellent reporting on the Leah Remini story, and again this morning has another very worthwhile piece. Whatever you may think of his personal views of Scientology (which after all, he IS entitled to), you have to admire his courage, his persistence and the network of sources he has built up over many years who feel he is a safe and reliable outlet for their information. He also writes clearly and well and takes the time to explain and include information to make understandable what can often be an impossibly arcane and confusing subject to the … [Read more...]
