She said there’s no brainwashing – and didn’t want to listen to the truth.

I had to say something about Dr. Maria Esguerra’s “Cult Chat” Ep 67. Eileen Barker built her career denying the reality of mind control.

If you’re someone who believed Trump would be tough on exposing the Epstein trafficking conspiracy & client list, this is worth reflection.

Why would his DOJ lawyer meet with Maxwell for hours? What deal was being made?

These are questions we need to be asking.

Very worrying!

Evangelical legal group asks Supreme Court to overturn same-sex marriage ruling (RNS) — ‘We think that it’s not a matter of if, but just a matter of when, the Supreme Court will overrule Obergefell,’ said Mathew Staver, head of Liberty Counsel.

We won't take away the right to an abortion, they say. They did.

We won't take away Medicare and ACA, they say. They did.

We won't take away the right to same-sex marriage, they say. They want to.

The GOP is about stripping away rights, not building society up.

Ousted vaccine panel members say rigorous science is being abandoned Seventeen experts ousted from a U.S. vaccine committee are expressing little faith in what the panel has become. U.S. Health Secretary Robert F.

So many, many will die! We need rigorous science, and not conspiracy theories which have been thoroughly debunked!

Resist the urge to escalate. Appeal to their humanity.

The more we respond with fear and aggression, the more power these systems gain.

Record. Stay present. And if you can, ask:
“Would you be okay if someone treated your sibling this way?"

So much to talk about... Epstein files, Putin, MAGA, Vance, AI, and threats to democracy.

Join me live Wed, July 30 at 3PM ET on my YouTube (@drstevenhassan) and bring your questions!

We need to create a movement to educate people about brainwashing, mind control, and how to help people exit!

Why am I not surprised? At least there is some concern about holding people accountable… but maybe plea deal?

They hired school nurses to promote opioids to children. Then they targeted pregnant women.

Yes, you read that right!

In my latest interview, @traceywoodruff.bsky.social & I expose how the opioid industry exploited vulnerable communities and infiltrated trusted institutions.

Angelo Sato: the Michelin-starred chef who grew up in a religious cult He grew up in the Children of God cult and endured life in Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen. Now, he is poised for greatness

More proof that there is a great life after you get out of a cult- even if you were born or raised in one. Sato grew up in a notorious cult run by a pedophile. Sound familiar? Cult leaders are malignant narcissists who want power money and sex.

Epstein accuser Maria Farmer on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I’ve never met a more predatory, terrifying human being in my entire life. She’s a very dangerous person. The woman is not a victim, she’s a victimizer.”

Trump may be trying to bury the Epstein files but this kind of cultural commentary keeps the conversation alive.

And for the record, South Park has roasted cults before… If anyone from the show is watching, how about a full episode on the Cult of Trump?

Pause for three minutes and soak up the grace of this man.

Earlier today, the father of three U.S. Marines, Narciso Barranco, spoke publicly for the first time after being pinned to the ground and savagely punched by ICE agents while they arrested the landscaper outside the IHOP where he worked.

We mapped Jeffrey Epstein's social network. Here's what we found. We used custom tech tools to analyze The Epstein-Musk-Trump social network. We found little evidence of a broader conspiracy — but did find a real threat to Donald Trump.

Dave Troy, Thank you. This will go viral, for sure. Everyone, please read. And then Share. Wow!

‘Happy Gilmore’ became a cult comedy. 29 years later, Adam Sandler is swinging again Adam Sandler's “Happy Gilmore” became one of the most beloved comedies of the ’90s and codified the hockey-style swing as a mainstay on golf courses.

I share this as another example of the word, that doesn’t have negative associations. But positive. See my Influence Continuum graphic!

Some are calling for a boycott of CBS. But I think that’s a mistake. Colbert will still be on air for almost a year, so if anything, we want to triple his views!

Instead of turning away, we should be asking how to amplify voices like his.

So much going on with the Epstein files, the roiling amongst MAGA who are upset with Trump - so many breaking news stories to cover!

You probably didn't know this about Trump!?

If this is true, does it align with all of the information that has come out? Including Epstein's 100 recorded hours with Michael Wolff? Would you overlook this behavior in anyone else?

What looks like innovation on the outside can sometimes mask unhealthy dynamics underneath.

Netflix’s Trainwreck: The Cult of American Apparel highlights how admiration, ambition, and blurred boundaries can quietly evolve into systems of control.

Have you seen this documentary yet?

"Put the church above their children.”

That’s what women were told in California & Boston’s Spanish-speaking ministry when they reported child abuse in the International Church of Christ.

Devoted church member Tania Díaz didn’t even know she was a mandated reporter then!
