Following the recent blog post about the April 1978 article in the Washington Post from April 1978, I came across this one from May 78 by the same reporter. Once again, scientology's own documents indict them (in this case, literally). Though they deny everything, the people who were indicated (including Mary Sue Hubbard) all pled guilty and spent time in Federal prison. Of course, scientology cannot change it's modus operandi. As I said in my earlier post, the only reason we don't have documents today like this today is there has been no raid to gather the evidence of their current … [Read more...]
Scientology Always Lies About Fair Game
Hubbard’s toxic legacy lives on. I recently came across this article published in the Washington Post on April 28, 1978. It recounts a summary of some of the evidence that had been discovered in the 1977 FBI raid on scientology in Los Angeles and Washington DC. The examples the story recounts are taken from scientology's documents, though they had not yet been made public. The operations described were pursuant to the directives of L. Ron Hubbard. Those same directives remain in place to this day. Today, scientology repeatedly asserts they do not harass and stalk … [Read more...]
Some Background on Scientology’s Efforts to Destroy Enemies
Over the last few weeks, Chris Owen (author of many insightful writings about Hubbard and scientology, including his excellent book, Ron The War Hero) has done a series of posts with Tony Ortega on Substack describing the history of the harassment campaigns carried out by scientology. As is always the case with Chris, he is a meticulous researcher and summarizes the information in a concise and accurate way. This is important information that should be as widely available as possible, so I am combining his 3 pieces into one longer article and reprinting it below. It's fascinating … [Read more...]
More Scientology Hypocrisy
Yet again, the OSA trolls expose themselves and the Hubbard way. One of the recently more active in bots stable, "Lory Guy" came out swinging with an "applicable LRH quote." Scientology frequently claims their freedom of speech is being denied because people are "telling lies about them." In fact, they are spinning some of the tallest tales imaginable, repeating accusations that are completely disproven, in an effort to follow Hubbard's policy of muzzling/destroying their denominated enemies (anyone who says things they don' t like). Just one egregious example: they routinely state Leah … [Read more...]
NEW Fair Game PI Activity Caught on Video
There's some scientology Fair Game activity underway in our neighborhood since Leah filed her lawsuit. Some neighbors alerted us to a suspicious vehicle parked on the main boulevard of our community outside their house. Two neighbors took photos of license plate of the vehicle at different times and locations: Shortly thereafter Christie and I went out to the local store and just like magic – look who is right in front of us: Of course, this could have been a coincidence and just someone who lives in our neighborhood – though … [Read more...]
Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
Aaron Smith-Levin just pointed out to me that scientology has a blogsite that is mikerinderblog.org, apparently hoping to capture people who make a typo in inputting my url. They have my name in big bold letters, right at the top. I am not sure if it because I so often go to my blog site, but the search engine put up a notification asking me if I actually meant to go to my real blog which I found amusing. The content is pretty ironic. Aaron Smith-Levin did a YouTube video with Alex Stein and because Stein is a "holocaust denier" it "raises serious concerns." Of course it … [Read more...]
More PI Activity Subsidized by US Taxpayers
Once again, I am reposting what Tony Ortega reported as a follow up to his original expose from the latest scientology spy to speak out, Alanna Warren. This is some fascinating and detailed insight into activities subsidized by US taxpayers... The surveillance photo above is obviously vital evidence, they documented the fact that Christie and I shop at a supermarket near our house. Another interesting thing about the report is just how many people they DIDN'T know. No doubt they took photos of everyone and they were pored over in OSA to determine who was there -- but of course, it was no … [Read more...]
More Scientology PI Disclosures
Tony Ortega posted this on his blog yesterday, and I am republishing it here today because it is direct information about me and scientology's Fair Game campaigns and I like to have a record of things like this on my blog. See my earlier posts: The Story of a Scientology Spy and Aftermath: Further Thoughts on PI's and Tony Ortega's coverage of scientology spy Cierra Westerman. This is the piece, written by the 3rd woman to come forward who was recruited by the notorious Dwayne Powell out of the "PI School" near Orlando (and the third one he had a sexual relationship with)... … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Scheme to Use Rape Victims for “Positive Press”
More scientology sickness hiding in plain sight. This is one of Hubbard's most important edicts on dealing with the media. It lays out scientology's policy on how to "control the press." It is the first policy in the "hat pack" of every scientology PR person. This is not "historical" or "we cancelled that" (like they claim about the Fair Game policy). They proudly stand behind this and even more proudly follow exactly what it says in their day to day actions. If you want to read the whole thing, you can do so here: Scientology Five Press Policies I … [Read more...]
The Black Bag Department
Reposting earlier posts during my vacation. I may do a YouTube piece about this, as it fits with the general theme of scientology Fair Game and disdain for the law... I just wasn't able to get one put together before I left. Marty has been doing a good job of exposing the unalterable policies of the church concerning dealing with perceived enemies. One aspect not much discussed is who are the "outside professionals" hired to do the dirty work. And while there is a lot that is done by Sea Org OSA staff, Class V (local DSAs like Mark Warburg and John Carmichael) and public … [Read more...]
