Secret mission: A child
NXIVM is years into project "Rainbow Cultural Garden," an intensive effort to raise potential
By JAMES M. ODATO Capitol bureau Published 1:00 am, Sunday, July 25, 2010
ALBANY -- The boy is 3 years old. He lives with a 40-year-old woman who is not his biological mother. And he is the first-ever enrollee in a unique educational project.
He is Gaelen, and he is being raised by Kristin Keeffe, a devotee of the secretive enterprise called NXIVM. It isn't clear where the child came from.
The boy has become part of a unique program begun by self-improvement organization NXIVM founder Keith Raniere called the "Rainbow Cultural Garden" aimed at helping youngsters master several languages. As a result, the child has been under the care of a number of different nannies, some from foreign nations, each using one of five different languages.
Barbara Bouchey, who worked within NXIVM's intellectual inner circle for nine years, handled financial matters for the organization's biggest benefactors, Seagrams heiresses Clare and Sara Bronfman. In an interview last week, Bouchey revealed that the boy came to the NXIVM associates around March 2007, shortly after his birth.
Barbara Jeske, a high-ranking NXIVM student, Bouchey recalled, declared that the boy's grandfather in Michigan gave up the boy after his daughter had died shortly after the child was born. Jeske and Keeffe traveled to the Ann Arbor, Mich., area to get the boy two days later and brought back the child to live with Jeske, Bouchey said. Yet, after about two months he was transferred from Jeske's home in Clifton Park to Keeffe's residence a short distance away but much closer to Raniere.
NXIVM 'sex lair' in Halfmoon targeted in FBI raid
Authorities say woman was a victim of sex trafficking at the home
By Brendan J. Lyons Updated 7:09 am, Friday, April 6, 2018
A Halfmoon townhouse raided by the FBI last week was dubbed "The Library" by NXIVM leader Keith Raniere, who had allegedly used the residence for years as his private sex lair, according to court records and interviews with people familiar with the residence.
The nondescript townhouse on Hale Drive, in the Knox Woods residential development, is a short walk from the small residence where Raniere lived for more than 15 years before he abruptly flew to Mexico last fall — after he became the target of an intensive federal criminal investigation.
The Hale Drive residence, which has a hot tub and a large bed on the second floor, was searched by the FBI around the same time the nearby residence of NXIVM co-founder Nancy Salzman was raided on March 27. Property records indicate the Hale Drive residence has been owned since 2004 by a now-inactive corporation, Executive Housing & Properties, which lists Salzman as its chief executive officer. The corporation's address, 455 New Karner Road in Albany, is also the location of NXIVM's headquarters.
The FBI's searches took place two days after Raniere, the leader of NXIVM, was arrested by Mexican federal police at a $10,000-a-week villa in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Raniere was with some of his most devoted female followers when he was taken into custody. Federal agents later brought Raniere to a federal courthouse in Fort Worth, Texas, where he appeared on a criminal complaint charging him with sex trafficking and conspiracy to commit forced labor.~~
~~In the federal criminal complaint filed against Raniere, prosecutors said the residence known as the Library is where Raniere, 57, repeatedly had sex with an unidentified actress in her 30s. Raniere is accused of illegally coercing the woman into becoming part of a secretive slave-master sex club associated with NXIVM.
The federal criminal complaint alleges that Raniere formed the group in which numerous women said they were lured into joining the club by other female members of NXIVM. They were required to provide some sort of collateral — such as nude photographs or damning information about their pasts — that leaders of the club threatened would be released if they failed to follow instructions or tried to leave the group, authorities said.
Some of the women have said they were also pressured to have sex with Raniere, while others told federal authorities that a female doctor associated with NXIVM, Danielle Roberts, used a cauterizing iron to brand them with a design on their lower abdomen that contained the initials of Raniere and Allison Mack, an actress and NXIVM associate who is listed in the complaint as an unnamed co-conspirator.
The Hale Drive townhouse is where federal authorities say the unidentified actress, who is listed as "Jane Doe 1" in the criminal complaint, became a victim of sex trafficking and forced labor. The actress lived in Brooklyn during the time she was an allegedly a victim of Raniere's — which is part of the reason the case is being pursued by the U.S. Attorney's office in the Eastern District of New York, which includes the borough.
The complaint alleges Mack, who is identified only as "Co-Conspirator 1," recruited the actress to join the secret club in February 2016, including making her provide "collateral" that consisted of "letters detailing false and highly damning accusations against her family members."
According to an FBI affidavit, the actress was required to provide more collateral, including turning over her credit card numbers to Mack. The actress also was ordered by Mack to travel to Halfmoon every week, and remain celibate for six months.
During one of her trips to Halfmoon, the actress said Mack instructed her to meet Raniere in the middle of the night near his residence. He allegedly instructed the actress to remove her clothing, placed a blindfold over her eyes and drove her around. Once he stopped the vehicle, they walked through some woods to a shack where the actress said she was tied to a table and forced to engage in sex with an unidentified person who was in the room with Raniere.
In the months that followed, according to an FBI affidavit, Raniere had repeated sexual contact with the actress at the Hale Drive townhouse.~~
Legal issues
In 2010, Mack was reported to have been recruited to the Vancouver chapter of the alleged cult NXIVM along with her Smallville co-star Kristin Kreuk.[16] In a 2003 article from Forbes, advocates of NXIVM portrayed it as an organization focused on inspirational executive coaching, "like a practical M.B.A.," while detractors accused the founder Keith Raniere of running "a cult-like program aimed at breaking down his subjects psychologically."[17] The co-founder of the Vancouver chapter reported in a 2017 The New York Times exposé that she had been branded in an initiation ceremony under the supervision of a top NXIVM official.[18]
Mack was arrested by the FBI in Brooklyn on April 20, 2018, on charges of sex trafficking, sex trafficking conspiracy and forced labor conspiracy. According to prosecutors, Mack, who ranked directly below Raniere in a pyramid scheme called DOS, recruited female slaves for him, and forced women to have sex with him under threat of having damaging information about them released, in exchange for what were described as "financial and other benefits".[19] She faces 15 years-to-life in prison.

Colgan is a variaton of Coogan (Irish origin). Just viewed an article from the houston Chronicle that was scrubbed before my very eyes on how the Colgans were manufacturing Bump Stocks.Obama Made Bump Stocks Legal - The Rush Limbaugh Show

I did notice Colgan/Coogan in recent hours and thought to myself, "Fuck they're similar...", thanks for pointing it out.
I'll take a look at some point, probably worth having that discussion over in part 14, though.

Self-effacing to the core, Charles Colgan loved telling Senate colleagues he was the General Assembly’s only licensed airplane mechanic.

This Colgan/Coogan abstraction has me intrigued, will look into it further.

I do this more than healthy minded people because I am a treasure hunter. In 1100 and something England started making Ireland pay taxes. Before then they did not have last names and spoke Gaelic. That is one key. The other key is hidden in most history books, and that is the story of the Phoenicians. Their main city was Tyre in what is now Turkey I believe(edit Lebanon). These seafarers traveled right up the coast to Ireland, nefarious for slave trading or anything else tradable. Major traders in Africa, not only for the wealth, but the great seaports to get to the other wealth. Think Tripoly, Libya.

I've put some time into looking into Irish/Gaelic history, but, so far it hasn't been a huge priority - my looking into Scientology and NXIVM, certainly changed that.
Doesn't surprise me that Turkey, Africa and Libya are 'connected' via slave trading and etc.
Indeed, it speaks volumes to your comment accusing me(? others? all?) of being "fake "jews""... I don't give a shit about the Khazarians; good, bad or otherwise - you must have missed the thread in which I go well beyond them into the past.
If I was a fucking enemy here, an enemy of Trump and those trying to fix the corruption, Trump/Q/Anonymous would have "shut [me] down", LONG ago. I've even walked myself into my local police department(sometime at the end of last year - maybe the year before now, I forget) and have pointed them directly to who I am here - so, no doubt, they see every bullshit accusation against me - including the cunts who accuse me of being a fucking pedo/cannibal.
I sure hope you're not making the same fucking accusations that shills and other morons have thrown at me.

Actually said that in jest because I see the same bickering on other sites and it gets old. This Egyptian thing with the satanists is glossed over by all but a few Egyptologists. Hyrkanians came into the upper kingdom and married into the original royalty. Akenaton's father was half Hyrkanian, and a snake worshipper. Described as light skinned, hook nosed fierce warriors, the Hyrkanians were expelled from Egypt for defiling the ancient temples and gods. That is the exodus in the Bible where they were put to the wilderness of Caanan, then invaded the Phoenicians a couple of hundred years later. It was only after much shapeshifting, and more expulsians, that they became the Khazars. They never abandoned the Egyptian mysteries or the Moloch/Baal worship. The Kurds are a lost tribe of the same group. Proof was found of their travels in the Atlas mountains, where travelers found black Africans wearing kilts and playing a musical instrument that closely resembles bagpipes. Their language contains words considered proto-Gaelic.

Well, at least you also went pretty damn far back into the past! Props to you there!
However.
Inaccurate to call them "Satanists", Satanism was not 'defined' until very recently. The practices referred to in relation to the ancient egyptians are, well, they're morbid as fuck but it was simply the way of the times(not to be too simplistic, just pointing out that it was 'normal' practise of dominance and control - eg: skullfucking).
"defiling" according to whom? These are stories retold time and time again over thousands of years - it's as likely as anything else, that much of this is propaganda designed to maintain control after said exodus.
"Why did you kick them out?", "Oh uh, they defiled the temples!", "Oh, okay..." (repeat over thousands of years, must be true)
"Shapeshifting"
I think you and I both know what that was about... starts with A.
Moloch is a fabrication inserted over the years - or, for another way to put it, through the destruction of ancient artifacts and libraries(knowledge), elements have been inserted and removed so as to create confusion later on... so-called 5D chess, where moves are made in the past and capitalized upon in the future.
Chinese whispers(not implicating the Chinese, it's just what we call it here in Aus) gone horribly wrong.
Worship of idols has never been encouraged by defined Satanism or the practises it's based on - fanciful/misleading writing/storytelling, is what has created a mess of fact mixed with fiction - the people responsible for this have no affiliation to any religion, they've been using existing belief systems against each other, while maintaining their own version of the worst parts mashed together.
It's pretty much the worst applicaiton of Syncretism imaginable. (Which is not to say that Syncretism is inherently bad)
"starts with A"
Ironically, I didn't mean Africa, but, also related.

(1) I was shortening things for time, and calling them Satanists, because by Biblical reference they have many names, and that is the recent American term. (2) "Defiling" meaning announcing to the kingdom that he was the son of the sun god and all those old gods that they worshiped were pretty much just cast to the side (bad day for the people who devoted their life to religion). That was the start of monotheism, and well documented by other ancient historians. As far as your, "these are stories told time after time for thousands of years", No, these were written in stone and translated from the Rosetta stone. Aramaic is the preferred language to learn before attempting to read Egyptian Hieroglyphics. A means academic?
argosciv ago
Right, and how many people know about the original stories and what would have been destroyed elsewhere breaking up the story. That's why there's so much confusion about the origins of the mass-scale corruption and theft/misappropriation of that knowledge - leading to the fear based anti-Satanism propaganda. I'm referring to the backwards shit people are told, because it's easy to blame on Satanism.
No, I honestly thought you would have seen the thread of mine that I'm talking about, by now lol.
It's one in which my most vocal oppenents decided to have a spam fit xD
RoC-13
YogSoggoth ago
I will be the first to admit that many things have been faked on purpose in Egyptology (Vyse and the great pyramids comes to mind). What I am talking about is the direct obfuscation and purposeful distraction of a very small but world changing part of history, and how it relates to now/Pizzagate. They are inseparable. I have only taught myself computer after Obama won so I am not sure of the controversy of a double sided mouse or the relevance. This must be on another thread?
argosciv ago
Indeed!
Double sided mouse? What even?
YogSoggoth ago
I typed in that r something and that was what the search engine gave me. Are you Q?
argosciv ago
Oh lol! haha I had a feeling that was the case - no RoC-13 was just short for Root of Corruption - Part 13.
Most certainly not.

Good, I hate puzzles.
