Here is a recent item that came in from one of our correspondents. What is interesting is the double standard it presents without any apparent irony. It is promoting the wonders of the internet and spewing out a bunch of meaningless statistics -- for all the massive advertising and hundreds of linked sites and millions spent to make their internet presence so "powerful" my blog -- which has NO budget, no team working on it and no massive advertising is consistently ranked HIGHER than Scientology.org by Alexa! But set aside the stat mumbo jumbo and the feeble "successes" (this is seriously … [Read more...]
Miscavige The Magnificent
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
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...]
Scientology Spokespuppet Footbullets
Karin Pinocchio Pouw -- the woman behind the curtain that is the name affixed to the public statements of the man behind the woman behind the curtain, David Miscavige -- has stepped in it once again. Responding to reporter Dana Kennedy in a piece published this morning in the Hollywood Reporter, Pouw/Miscavige once again assert that disconnection does not exist, it is merely a "personal choice." Here is a passage from the article: Karin Pouw, a spokesperson for the Church of Scientology, tellsTHR that there is no such policy of disconnection. "While none of this is a comment about … [Read more...]
Flag OTC Minutes — “News” From Inside The Bubble
Here is the latest self-hyping propaganda from the "OT Ambassadors" inside the bubble. It is the minutes from their last meeting. Mathilde, Public Sec FSO spoke about the importance of "getting ready." She said that she knows we've been hearing about it at graduations, but wanted us to realize just how close it is, announcing that the New Flag Building will be opened sometime in September, followed by the IAS Event here at Flag in October. She said that as soon as precise dates are known, she will let us know. Mathilde said that now is the time to get everyone on board here in Clear … [Read more...]
Scientology Responds To Paul Haggis — Sort Of
The Hollywood Reporter published an open letter written by Paul Haggis this morning. In typical Haggis style, he zero'd in on the crux of the matter and showed himself once again to be a man of principle and dignity who clearly articulates his calm and well reasoned points. Of course, Karin (David Miscavige) Pouw just HAD to respond. In a page out of their normal "attack the attacker" playbook, they launched an illogical, poorly composed ad hominem assault on Paul Haggis. It does not respond to a SINGLE POINT of his Open Letter. It is so ridiculous that I am reprinting it here in full. Th … [Read more...]
Latest From The Disconnection Bubble
Here is the latest from the "Facebook Police". Clearly there is an effort to make themselves look "kinder and gentler" and couch the demand to disconnect as a "choice".... But anyone who receivers such a message knows what this means. Disconnect (unfriend) or you will be reported for consorting with the enemy and your name will be on the list for unfriending next. "Dr. Bill," a sockpuppet KoolAid drinker of the first order, makes it known to his friends and associates that he reports to Kathy True, Donatella Kevenaar and Julian Swartz. He once proclaimed: "If you get information on an … [Read more...]
Oh, How The Mighty Have Fallen
The GI at Flag must suck. The pressure must really be cranked up at Flag for Sonya Jacques to be delivering $10/head "seminars" at the local Mission. Sonya used to routinely make more than $200Gs a week. There is no way she would spend 2 hours on Wednesday evening at Bellaire Mission if things were even close to normal. This is desperation....

Don’t Miss This “Exclusive Briefing”
The "new Ideal PAC Base" is in need of personnel. Quick, you don't want to miss out on the opportunity to be a 50cents/hour cleaner and one of the people He mentions when He announces the "Ideal PAC Base now has 100 Maintenance Staff." "Exclusive briefing" is now a euphemism for "recruitment interview" -- seriously, is anyone going to fall for this?

Voldemort Update 26 July
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...]
