Elderly abuse happens every day in scientology. If you have a relative over 60 in the "Sea Org" in CA, here's something you can do to help them. Thanks @yashar for finding this and alerting @LeahRemini and me. The fight to end their abuses never stops.

“Sell the Team” chants take over DC.
This isn’t just a couple A’s fans being boisterous. This is a demand growing traction across ALL baseball fans.
John Fisher should be embarrassed. And MLB should be embarrassed of him. #Athletics#RootedInOakland
100% of the ad revenue from "The Story of Serge Obolensky - An Aftermath Foundation Documentary" is going to the Aftermath Foundation. So by simply WATCHING the documentary you are helping the Aftermath Foundation. https://t.co/XwutJnKDKs
I wanted to share some important news.
After 17 years of harassment, intimidation, surveillance, and defamation, I am filing a lawsuit against Scientology and David Miscavige.
While advocating for victims of Scientology has significantly impacted my life and career, Scientology’s final objective of silencing me has not been achieved. While this lawsuit is about what Scientology has done to me, I am one of thousands of targets of Scientology over the past seven decades. People who share what they’ve experienced in Scientology, and those who tell their stories and advocate for them, should be free to do so without fearing retaliation from a cult with tax exemption and billions in assets.
The press has a right to report about Scientology without facing a sophisticated intelligence operation from Scientology to destroy their personal lives and their careers. Law enforcement authorities have a right to investigate crimes in Scientology without fear that they will lose their jobs. Children, mothers, fathers, aunts, and uncles have a right to request welfare checks on their family members without fear of an operation activated against them by Scientology for doing so. Those in the entertainment business should have a right to tell jokes and stories without facing an operation from Scientology which uses its resources in Hollywood to destroy their lives and careers.
With this lawsuit, I hope to protect the rights afforded to them and me by the Constitution of the United States to speak the truth and report the facts about Scientology without fear of vicious and vindictive retribution, of which most have no way to fight back.

Rob Manfred on the A's relocation:
'The real question is, what is it Oakland was prepared to do? There is no Oakland offer. OK? They never got to a point where they had a plan to build a stadium at any site. And it’s not just John Fisher. The community has to provide support."
An Oakland A's fan approached me and told me he was rehearsing this speech all day. He then proceeded to pour his heart out and did not disappoint.
Wasn't able to catch his name, so I'm hoping this finds its way on his timeline.

@abc7newsbayarea @CaseyPrattABC7 This was a huge deal. If the A's actually cared about maintaining a competitive roster and providing their fans with a stadium that didn't literally leak sewage, this could be a daily thing. We want to go to games and support a real major league team. #SellTheTeam
The A’s, w/ a new owner who invests in winning & in a new Oakland ballpark, could average 27K/game or more for the next 55+ years.
Listen to your own words from 2019, Rob.
The announced attendance at the Oakland A's reverse boycott game: 27,759.
And the crowd has been absolutely electric. Constantly engaged, chanting for John Fisher to sell the team and trying to remind everyone that Oakland losing baseball is a genuinely bad thing for the sport.
