23 January 2013. “Holy Archangels Foundation” on the IRS Shit List… Send NO Money to Them…

01 Wolf In Sheeps Clothing

______________________________

I got this from one of the Cabinet members, it’s read n’ heed, kids:

Guidestar, the source for information on non-profit organisations, says about “Holy Archangels Foundation”:

Legitimacy Information

  • This organisation is NOT registered with the IRS
  • This organisation is required to file an IRS Form 990-N

The IRS automatically revoked this organisation’s exempt status for failure to file a Form 990, 990-EZ, 990-N, or 990-PF for three consecutive years. Further investigation and due diligence are warranted.

I wonder if the outfit that gave them a 10,000 USD grant (Trust for Mutual Understanding, an 80 million USD enterprise) were aware of their shaky (if not shady) status? This is sleazy beyond words… but it’s the sort of thing that one expects from Potapov and Fatso. Bear in mind, Potapov used the official ROCOR website to attack a fellow member of the Rodzianko clan, and Fathausen would be sweetness n’ light when criticised, but then he bided his time, and sandbagged his interlocutor when he felt that they had their guard down. It’s how he dealt with the OCA Holy Synod… it isn’t surprising that they shitcanned him and gave him his walking papers for such rubbishy behaviour.

This is more of the same ol’, same ol’… it sure doesn’t speak highly of George Michalopoulos and the Monomuckos cretins, does it? I wish that someone would take out the humane killer and end the OCA’s misery. Furthermore, I wish that the Centre would do something about Potapov… he’s getting rather gnarly and arrogant. Stay tuned… no doubt, there’s more where this came from…

Another Cabinet member sent this nugget on:

I’m told that Marilyn Swezey is the goddaughter of Fr Victor Potapov’s Matushka. Also, sources tell me that the address for that foundation is Swezey’s home address in DC.

No doubt there’s more gold in them thar hills. Stay tuned in, and don’t adjust your sets…

23 January 2013. Sergei Yolkin’s World. Vinous Negotiations

Vinous Negotiations

Sergei Yolkin

2013

******

The RIA translator gets a Big Green Weenie Award for messing up the caricature’s title and the text in the cartoon. It’s not, “I hope you have serious intentions”, it’s more like, “If you’re serious about this, get involved in the negotiations…”. It’s NOT a plea, it’s a demand. Besides that, it destroys the in vino veritas effect that Yolkin was reaching for. Onishchenko wasn’t being tentative, he was being a Dutch Uncle, and he was urging the Georgians to “get down”. Talking Over Wine is poor… Vinous Negotiations conveys more of Yolkin’s intent, which is that Onishchenko has had a few, and he’s coming out with what he truly feels. It’s obvious that a non-native-speaker translated this…

On Monday, Dr Gennady Onishchenko, the head of Rospotrebnadzor and Russia’s head physician, privately met with the members of a Georgian delegation that travelled to Moscow for talks. In his view, if the Georgian government were willing to participate in the negotiations over wines and mineral water, it’d point up Georgia’s seriousness of intent. Russia, the main importer of Georgia’s produce up to 2008, closed its borders to Georgian wines over the producers’ alleged failure to meet food safety standards, in particular with regard to wine containing pesticides and heavy metals.

23 January 2013. The “Holy Archangels Foundation” Run by Darlin’ Marilyn Swezey

00 same ol' shit. 29.05.12

______________________________

One of the Cabinet sent me this:

I’ve heard that Marilyn Swezey runs the foundation now. She’s in the DC parish, and is one of JP’s “spiritual children”. I also heard that she owns the apartment where Bishop Basil Rodzianko lived, and which she now preserves in his memory. Simeon Kharon was living there with her permission when he attacked his neighbour and was arrested…

Well, well, well… I was wonderin’ when Darlin’ Marilyn would pop up her pointed little head. This is further proof that the Monomuckos/Potapov fundraising effort is nothing but a scam. The OCA Holy Synod (and the ROCOR Synod, too) should investigate this fund to see how much gelt that Darlin’ Marilyn has been fronting Fatty. Potapov’s a well-placed Langley propagandist to the Orthosphere, and he has access to US government slush funds. The same ol’ scurvy crew is pushing forward, isn’t it? These Far Right loonies aren’t representative of Real Orthodox…

In a related vein, Eric Tosi is running about accusing people of feeding me intel. Of course, people are doing so, but Eric’s so dense and clueless that he never gets it right. Remember, he claimed, when Piggy Iggy Burdikoff was accusing of nicking church funds, “The records simply don’t exist”. Also, recall that he tried to stab Lyonyo in the back by supporting Vinnie Peterson for the white hat, and, then, he switched horses and backed Michael Dahulich (again, another backstab attempt at Lyonyo). Tosi’s an incompetent wanker and he’s disloyal, to boot. There’s no need to get hot n’ bothered over him, for he’ll destroy himself due to his chowderheadedness. In his stupidity, he’ll step full-force into a steaming cow pat, and no one will cry over it. All of Hunchak’s horses and all of Johnny Hopko’s men won’t be able to put Eric together again…

Another typical day in the slo-mo death of the OCA… may this agony end soon. Look at the bright side of Church Unity… it’ll mean that worthless jabronies like Tosi and Iggy won’t have a place… now, that’s something to lift a jug over…
