The Unchosen does a powerful job demonstrating the classic cult warning signs I’ve studied for years! Much of it aligns very closely with my BITE Model of Authoritarian Control. Click here cultexpert.myflodesk.com/bitemodeland... to learn more about what undue influence looks like! 📹 @netflix

I couldn’t stay quiet about Trump’s comments on Bad Bunny because the contrast says a lot!

Outrage is the easiest way to hijack your mind, and it’s being weaponized daily. Former Oath Keeper @jasonvantat.bsky.social & I explain why anger shuts down critical thinking & why America needs “exit ramps” for people to come back to themselves. Watch the full video here: youtu.be/GcAGpzyyxYM

I view trafficking networks as commercial cults, with a guru at the top, the trafficker, who is a malignant narcissist, the stereotypical profile of cult leaders. They control Behavior, Information, Thoughts, and Emotions (BITE) to create dependency and obedience.

If you want a chance at keeping your relationship strong, lead with compassion, patience, & genuine curiosity. Love is stronger than mind control. What’s been the hardest part for you as a parent trying to stay connected to a MAGA-involved child? I’d really like to hear @jimpicariello.bsky.social

Karoline Leavitt’s press briefings are a masterclass in propaganda. Many MAGA supporters are exiting because they are realizing how inflation & prices are going up, the economy is getting bad & there are no trustworthy numbers anymore People deserve real information, not theatrics 🎥 @brutamerica

Trump, Tucker Carlson, “literal spells,” and the Antichrist. @virginiaheffernan.bsky.social & I talk about why some people around Trump describe his influence in supernatural terms, while I see a psychological process of influence, loyalty, sunk cost, and coercive control 📹: youtu.be/X82cRXo6j88

People often imagine a cult as something extreme, obvious, or impossible to fall into. But many cults begin with community, healing, belonging, spirituality, love bombing, and emotional connection. Footage from @zolita on TikTok (she did a series and I highly recommend watching it!)

This documentary is an incredible opportunity to understand what mind control cults actually do to people. I’ve known Christine Marie for a long time & seeing her journey, along with the courage of survivors like Nomz really shows both the trauma and the possibility of healing & rebuilding a life.

Boundaries create safety. Safety lets your nervous system relax. Communication keeps energy moving. When nothing is said, resentment builds, and attraction drops. Boundaries keep you whole. Communication keeps you connected. That balance is where passion flows instead of fades.

Why not you? Believe in yourself. Dream bigger than your doubts. Work harder than your excuses. Stay disciplined when others quit. And enjoy every step of the journey while you build the life you were meant for. #WhyNotYou #BelieveInYourself #DreamBig #WorkHard

Emmer: "It's gonna be about the economy. And what Republicans did w/ Donald Trump's leadership is causing billions of dollars to be invested in our economy right now, and you're gonna see that start to have a real impact toward the end of the summer & early fall. I like our chances in the midterms."

The arrogance of some of the #BillionairesForBallrooms Big-Media #EpsteinClass is despicable, vile in terms of ego. That a cable TV news anchors considers themselves a journalist is nearly a joke in itself. They read out loud headlines, like a grammar school choral reading session.

People are fed up with being taken for granted by the two old parties. So tomorrow, the choice is clear in so many places: Reform’s Trump-style politics, or the Liberal Democrats who will fight for you and your community.

🚨🇺🇸🇸🇦 U.S. President Trump mocks Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman: “He never imagined he’d be flattering me like this—he really didn’t. But now he has to play nice…he’d better, because he doesn’t have a choice.”
