They should give you a call.

They just don't have the right people apparently.

That is the one way they effectively put their money to use is lobbyists and attorneys, judges.

Very rarely have they ever been able just to get a politician on their side.

It's the behind-the-scenes people.

You know, Greta Van Susteren's a very high-level, long-term Scientologist.

And her husband, I always get it wrong.

It's either Jim Cole or John Cole.

I always get it wrong.

He's a very powerful attorney who has a lot, wields a lot of influence behind the scenes.

And that's just one example.

Like the reason why that's an interesting example is because he's actually a Scientologist and he travels in those circles.

Scientology though, its money goes to good use by hiring non-Scientologists, retired judges, attorneys, lobbyists.

It really is how they get almost anything done.

Like Miscavige himself is not hobnobbing and glad hanging and shaking hands and meeting these folks.

It's the non-Scientologist professionals who work behind the scenes on Scientology's behalf.

I meant more the courts and regulators, not the police department.

But, well, for example, it can come down to something as simple as this.

In Clearwater, Scientology hires Clearwater police to do off-duty work for them.

They pay like three times the normal off-duty rate.
