Scientology was made to block Jesus’s return. Jon Atack and I break down the bulletin Hubbard had to pull within a week: his Lucifer claims, the rituals with Jack Parsons, and the bizarre mythology he only revealed to high-paying insiders. 📹: youtu.be/8TjOhQsCqTQ @jonatack.bsky.social
Here is a perfect example of how the big lie works. Trump’s “we’re winning too much” routine! What do you think when you hear him make claims like this? I’d love to hear your thoughts below. Video Credit: @cbsnews
A rom-com about cults? That’s the premise of The Cult of Us, a funny, dark & surprisingly educational film about how cults recruit, how people stay trapped, and how they break free. Watch the full video: youtu.be/x2r846Sgop8 @jimpicariello.bsky.social
You’ve been sold a fantasy crisis. The facts tell a different story. Bill Eddy and I talk about the lie behind anti-immigrant fear messaging, and what the research says about crime, work, and the economy. This is about manipulation, not safety. Watch the full video here: youtu.be/7XquEpUpt1w
Trump’s latest animation stunt isn’t just childish, it reveals exactly who he is. This behavior isn’t funny. It’s not “owning the libs.” It’s another example of his long, well-documented racist background and his pattern of demeaning others for sport.
Tucker Carlson says Trump betrayed his followers, but let’s look at what’s really going on. He says this war goes against “America First,” but his agenda is documented pro-Putin, pro-Russia, & not putting America first. He says he loves America. Don’t believe it for a minute.
I’ve been warning for years about the influence Putin and Russia appear to have over Donald Trump. McFaul makes some powerful points about the similarities between Putin’s rise to power and what many people are now witnessing within MAGA politics in America. Video credit: @ambmcfaul
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
Telling your MAGA loved one that you hate who they’ve become just pushes them away. What actually works is asking questions. Bring them back to memories of who they were before they were recruited & help them reconnect with parts of themselves that previously existed! @jimpicariello.bsky.social
We’re leaving our veterans out in the cold! NC Candidate David Clayton and I ask why thousands of homeless veterans aren’t receiving benefits. This is a profound ethical failure of a nation that claims to “support the troops.” Watch here: youtu.be/XFbs1Qqec_0 @empathytour.bsky.social

Trump’s threat to annihilate the Iranian people is an empty one — but it will still cause a massive amount of harm to the national security of the United States. #trump #iran #war #civilization #nationalsecurity
A lot of my content is about the horrors of Russia's war against Ukraine. This is the reality we live in. And yet, there is light, love, strength, hope even in these very dark times. I think this video captured the essence of this very well. 📹: marina_christina / Instagram

“What if you started 6 Months ago?” That question hurts because deep down… you KNOW where your business could be by now. More bookings. More followers. More confidence. More money. Most lash techs wait for the “perfect time”. Meanwhile… Other people start messy and grow anyway.

So what else can they destroy while no one is looking? Trump Admin orders dismantling of U.S. Forest Service, moving headquarters to Utah. Every regional office shuttered. All scientists fired and industry lobbyists in control -193 million acres of National Forest now on the literal chopping block.

Приходять без стуку і йдуть, наче їм завинили, Безмежно стервозні, брехливі, ядучі і злі. На вигляд, як друзі, насправді ж, фальшиві-фальшиві, І живляться кров‘ю, витягують жили усі. А ти, як дитина, пускаєш непроханих в душу, А ти хлібом-сіллю приймаєш усіх і уся... Сліпим кошеням відкриваєш
