The Black Bag Department

March 13, 2020 By Mike Rinder 15 Comments

See my announcement on Friday -- I am revisiting earlier posts during my vacation. Each day there will be a different one. 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.

When Miscavige was in the UK for the IAS event or any other activities, Keenan was "the man".  He picked up Miscavige from Farnborough Business Jet Airport when he arrived in Cruise's Gulfstream with a little convoy of rented Range Rovers and BMWs.

@LeahRemini @azhlynne @UltioetVeritas @MikeRinder As fellow "Never-Ins" we enjoyed this latest podcast episode with Stefani. It's mind boggling that Scientology has tax exempt status. Hoping @TheJusticeDept tunes in as more and more people speak out.

The more people who speak out, write to the government, law enforcement, the IRS & US Treasury the more headway we make. The pen is mightier than the sword and much better than any violence.
