Background: How This All Started
Timestamp: 00:00:09 – 00:02:38
If you’re not familiar with what’s going on, I started my channel back in 2013 when I started my website raisedtowalk.org, but I didn’t really publish on it other than publishing a lot of videos for Reading through the Psalms until 2019 when I started doing live stream Bible studies on Instagram and then I uploaded those later to YouTube and I also did book reviews.
Propaganda & Government Corruption Stream Notes
Follow along with the livestream with detailed stream notes along with timestamps. Episode stream notes include documentation of plagiarism along with additional documented references. Available in digital (PDF), audio, and paperback formats.
So in 2019, I started publishing videos regularly and I was really consistent about that until I started slowing down a little bit in 2021 when I began helping my friend, Mark Richie,http://markritchie.me with his ministry in Pakistan doing Bible studies for Pakistanis and then that later turned into helping some Afghan Christians teaching Bible studies to them and helping them with their immigration journey where I could. And this all kind of plays into what was going on.
I was just going along doing my thing. I published a ton of content. Then last year — it was actually the end of December 2023 — I could tell, because this happened before, my devices were being hacked. I didn’t really know why or why anyone would be interested in doing that. I had no idea who it was, but I it was around the time when I had started calling out a bunch of sock puppet accounts because they were doing a bunch of shady things on social media.
NOTE: The thing that upset me in the beginning about the sock puppet accounts is that there were, what I could tell were, fake accounts posing as Christian pastors and influencers that were having “revelations” that they no longer believed in distinctive Christian doctrines such as the fall, the nature of sin, the necessity of the Atonement, and the authority of Scripture. I could also tell that these false and heretical accounts were part of the same sock puppet rings that were promoting real Christian pastors and influencers and were targeting the real Christians’ followers. The X post above is one that I included in my first livestream in the Hacked: the Saga series titled “A Message to My Stalker.” Both of the posts, the original post and the repost, have been deleted from my X account. I did not delete them.
There were two things that happened in December of 2023. I started calling out sock puppets on Twitter and I also wrote a pretty long letter to our school board against chaplains in public schools and sent it to all 150 of the Texas reps. I’m not quite sure which one triggered this, but I started getting hacked. However, there wasn’t anything concrete I could point out to authorities to say, “This is what’s going on,” so I didn’t do anything.
The Major Hack Attack
Timestamp: 00:03:11 – 00:04:25
Then in April 2024, my devices were massively hacked. There was no question about it. I wasn’t happy about it, but at least now I had solid evidence. This was something I could show authorities say, “Hey this is what’s going on.” There had been other attacks, but I now had definite proof of the hack.
I called the FBI. If you read what they tell you to do if you’re being hacked, the first thing is to call the FBI. I called the FBI and the person that I talked to completely blew me off and told me to call the police.
So I did, I was in Woodburn, Oregon at the time and so I called the Woodburn police. and I asked dispatch for someone to come out because I know there are a lot of things with people doing voice clones and video clones. Instead, I get a voice call back from a woman who dismissed what I was saying, and blew me off. She said “I don’t have time to come out.” and then she just told me to call Geek Squad.
So anyway, I just went on in the middle of constant hacking and online attacks because I really didn’t have just even a grasp on who would be doing that. I mean, why even bother? It was just so bizarre.
Intellectual Property Theft Discovery
Timestamp: 00:05:35 – 00:07:01
A month later, so this is in May 2024. I was still involved with An Unexpected journal which was a cultural apologetics journal that some friends and I started back in April of 2018 and I had been involved in it all that time. I was the one that was responsible for putting together the manuscripts, the cover, publishing them online, etc. Zak Schmoll was the managing editor most of the time up until 2023 — so whatever Zak didn’t do, I did. When we did our livestream launch parties, I put all that together. It was something that took a lot of my time.
Seth Myers who was on the board, I don’t know if he still is, but he shared a link to a bootleg copy of our Dostoevsky issue which came out in December of 2023 and it wasn’t using a free ISBN from Amazon. It had its own ISBN (the significance of this is that it meant that the ISBN was registered to an entity through Bowker and could be traced).
There were all these other things that I had seen as attacks at the time. At this point, I knew two people who were involved, two people that I knew and at the time I thought it was just those two people. I thought that the reason that I was being attacked is because one of the people, the husband — this is what I thought — I thought he was butt hurt because I told him he was wrong about something. You know men don’t like to be told they are wrong. I didn’t even tell him he was wrong, I just said he had been listening to something and I said, “That’s not right” and he gets super offended. It was the dumbest thing. I mean, the lameness of people involved is just unbelievable. So I thought that’s what it was, because it was, I could tell that it was somebody that was familiar with the journal that was behind some of the sabotage.
Second FBI Contact & Continued Dismissal
Timestamp: 00:07:02 – 00:08:00
In May 2024, I again call the FBI and tell them what’s going on. This time when I call, I know two of the people that are involved. This is intellectual property theft. They are selling bootleg copies of our journals on Amazon and other places. This is very clear. This is fraud. It’s illegal. This is what the FBI says that they’re doing, right? Again, the FBI agent just says “Just submit it to IC3.”
So obviously they weren’t going to do anything. Basically, you call somebody and they just tell you to submit it online which, at this point I don’t think that the IC3 is worth squat. I think that either the FBI is either complicit or that all their submission portals can be hacked to hell because there’s no safety in what you submit there. That’s what I think.
I think anything you submit to IC3, they’re just putting it in to some AI model that’s easily fooled enabling criminals pull a number on them. That’s what I think now.
But at the time, somebody that I had talked to said that the FBI won’t get involved — I don’t know if this is true; I am not impressed with the FBI period — but my friend said the FBI won’t get involved unless there’s at least $7 million involved. So I thought, “Okay, so obviously they don’t care if it’s just an individual getting hacked and stalked and harassed,” Obviously, the FBI does not care about that.
So I knew that the people that were involved in this, these sock puppet networks, I knew they were part of the hacking. Social media is all about the algorithm and whoever controls the numbers controls the algorithm. They have this mass amount of fake accounts and they can basically float whatever they want in front of you for a post. It looks like a post is just coming up in your feed. No somebody’s placing it there.
That is how the individuals hacking and stalking me were threatening me, by posting threats that weren’t explicitly directed towards me, but that were manipulated into my timeline by manipulating actions with their sock puppet account. They were threatening me indirectly behind fake accounts because they’re spineless little cowards they can’t — just come out, come out and say it to my face because they’re sniveling little weasels.
The 200-Page Investigation Report
Timestamp: 00:09:28 – 00:10:04
I could see all the shady stuff that these sock puppet networks were involved in and promoting. So I spent the next two months and documented it all. I wrote a 200-page report. It was 33,000 words and I had 100 pages of screenshots showing 46 different areas of criminal activity that the sock puppet networks were involved in.
I submitted that on July 28th 2024. So 200 pages and I’m thinking there would at least be an acknowledgement. Not only did I submit it to tips.fbi.gov, I also submitted it to IC3 and to the Department of Justice because it seemed to me they were dismissing me because I’m a woman with a Hispanic last name
No response.
That was on Sunday, July 28th, 2024 when I submitted it.
Discovering of Intellectual Property Theft
Timestamp: 00:10:43 – 00:14:49
So I’m looking at this, this person was a connection of mine, I have no idea who it is. I don’t know if you know this but there is — I don’t know if it’s a program that hacks or Facebook just completely sucks and — I don’t know what it is but they can add connections to you that you do not approve. I never added this person as a friend. I have no idea who this is and I’m looking at this and these no prep Bible studies, I’m looking at I’m like this looks like they ripped them off from my parables of Jesus. In 2020, I did every single parable of Jesus on YouTube.
This is on July 29th. Also during this time, this is when the Olympics were going on. I don’t know if you remember this but I saw these lame sock puppet accounts promoting this idiotic campaign about — this is the creativity of the marketing company that was promoting the Olympics is to put out bogus comments designed to just upset people and get people agitated and then having their little owned accounts and clients feed into the drama about it so this is how — I’m seeing all this and I’m seeing all these sock puppets accounts that are that have been part of this harassment that are promoting this crap.
AI Content Generation & Professional Theft
Timestamp: 00:13:18 – 00:14:21
So this is going on and then on July 30th on Tuesday I go on YouVersion. I don’t really do their devotionals because I don’t really do other people’s devotionals. I do my own Bible studies. I don’t really read other people’s that much but I do go use YouVersion a lot to look at passages to look at different translations.
These are screenshots from the 30th and I’m looking at this and do you see these no fear and there were several of them were coming up as suggested devotionals.
I don’t know if you use YouVersion, but they have these little daily thoughts and devotionals which are AI generated and as someone was commenting they said “I can tell it’s AI and the devotionals are always really dry.” That’s why, because it’s AI. Not only are the videos AI generated but the devotionals are AI generated based on stolen content and the reason I know this is because I recognize my work in a lot of those spun crappy AI spun devotionals.
So like this one, I mean it was just, this is what I’m saying here, this was supposedly an Olympic athlete. I guarantee you this is a AI using their image and some of the prayers were the exact words that I had said in my Bible studies.
I’m looking at that and I’m thinking, “You have got to be kidding me and this was — seeing this on YouVersion that and those No Prep Bible studies were the first things that made me realize that not only was I being hacked but — I didn’t realize at the time but they’ve literally stolen every single thing I did. I mean all my writing — almost all my writing on Raised to Walk they even stole an article I wrote on leadership it’s called “On Being Congruent” on my Legacy Marketing site. I know they stole it because they made it so it wouldn’t even load. They are just thieves and losers.
This was the beginning of what made me realize that my stuff had been stolen. This is the thing. On July 28th, 2024, is when I contacted the FBI. They still, they still have yet to contact me. I went into the office after that twice … twice. This gets even better.
Live Stream Response & Immediate Retaliation
Timestamp: 00:15:04 – 00:19:33
Since nobody contacted me about that 200-page report that I submitted, I started doing a livestream on August 4th. It was three hours. I used to be really consistent about publishing and I hadn’t been in a long time. The video was just me saying “Okay, this is what’s going on.” It was when I was doing that live stream that I started realizing that some of the sabotage was political.
I think almost all the sabotage is political, quite frankly, but there’s a couple of things. So I think what happened is that losers stole my work and then in order to try to cover for that they were sabotaging my stuff but when we started doing live streams for the journal in 2021 it made it a lot harder to quash my stuff so they conned Ted Cruz into believing that I was some Democratic operative so they could get political funding to hack my stuff okay because I can tell — if somebody’s familiar with SEO and promoting websites — I can tell by the negative links pointing to my site when the political sabotage started and you can tell like they had different service providers that had different methods for sabotage.
So I could tell the sabotage started in 2021 hardcore. They also created a doppleganger of my YouTube channel. Just the level that they went to, the amount of money that they have spent to tank my site and platforms is so completely and utterly disgusting. It’s disgusting. Bbut when you find out who they are and that these are people who are Christians who are marketing Christian influencers screwing them over too — the whole thing is so disgusting.
I streamed on Sunday, August 4th. If you can’t see the video on YouTube I uploaded it to Rumble because they’ve been blocking access to my YouTube videos depending on who is trying to watch it. It’s so crazy. They’ll meter the video playback. So if I go to and see something I can see it but if somebody else sees it that’s not me a lot of times it will be blocked and I know this because when I look at my own stuff on Tor there’s, it’s like a block — it’s like oh we have to identify you before we’re going to let you see this so anyway.
June 2026 Note: If you’re wondering how they managed to control (and still do) the playback of my videos in this way, I discovered much later that they had hijacked my YouTube channel into an undisclosed multi-channel network (MCN, i.e. built-in, YouTube-approved fraud) and had far more control over my videos than I did as the creator.
YouTube Analytics Manipulation & Creator Targeting
Timestamp: 00:17:36 – 00:19:08
In that three-hour live stream I have evidence that some of the YouTube analytics are fake, I have evidence of this more than what’s in that live stream a lot. And so I went through Sean Cannell’s with Think Media through one of his programs back in 2020 and I’m in that Facebook group where it’s video ranking academy and there’s a lot of people when you go in there especially from Christian content creators they’ll say “I’m just not seeing growth I’m just not seeing growth I’m just not seeing growth.” And here’s the thing that maybe it is competitive, it there’s a lot of people publishing it but that’s not the only reason.
I think — I will guarantee you that there’s people sitting in that knowing that there’s a lot of Christians who go in there when they’re starting doing videos. I guarantee you that these content thieves are sitting in there stealing the transcripts if they find somebody that’s good and then sabotaging their channel. I guarantee you that’s happening. I know that I’m not the only person that this has happened to. Now I didn’t know the whole thing at the time, all I said was I know that my analytics have been sabotaged or they’re fake, these aren’t real, there’s been watch time stolen, stuff’s been eliminated.
Social Media Account Takeover
Timestamp: 00:19:33 – 00:22:06
After that my Facebook account gets locked, I can’t access it for 3 days and then on the 5th I reformat my Google Pixel phone and when I do it’s like it’s massively hacked. So that Wednesday — so Sunday I do the live stream, Monday I reformat my phone and then everything’s hacked, all my accounts — anything’s touching that phone is compromised and they have access to and on Wednesday I went to the Woodburn Police station and I went in there and I had gone in in May just to do a report and showed him the pirating of the Dostoevsky issue and I have a report number for that and that was officer Joshua Mitchell at the Woodburn Police Department.
Police Station Gaslighting Incident
Timestamp: 00:20:05 – 00:21:33
When I went in on August 7th to say that I was hacked he came in, he was on crutches, his demeanor was totally different. He told me that hacking wasn’t a crime, that what I was experiencing wasn’t reality, and that I needed mental help. This is what he said. Now I want to point this out while I was in that in that police department reporting this hacking these jackasses, people that I know, I didn’t know this at the time but people that I know — this is a Meta feature — they took my account moved me onto a fake one and so they had control over my real account and before I had access back to it they had created all these fake accounts of people that I know so I would be thinking that I’m posting and be interacting with real people but they’re fake accounts.
So I want to point this out Joshua Mitchell of the Woodburn Police Department while you were blowing me off they were stealing the identities of literally hundreds of people that I know, that is what was going on. So you think about that, again when somebody else comes to you — who the hell knows what kind of things — what kind of scams they’ve been running with all those stolen identities because I know that they have taken my account that they stole and sent a message to another account that I have control over. I know that they’ve been faking my identity.
Political Targeting Discovery
Timestamp: 00:22:38 – 00:23:40
So anyway … never got nothing okay. So this is all of the updates that I did about what was going on, how I was being hacked, all the things that I was discovering and it wasn’t until August or so that I realized that, I started realizing who was involved or people that I had considered friends and some family that were involved in this, but I didn’t realize until August 22nd that — I, this is the thing, I don’t, I don’t pay attention to Ted Cruz because he’s lame and he’s a loser.
I called him a hypocrite in 2017 in a blog post. I actually voted for him in the primary for president in 2016 when he started selling out I was like I will, it was the, I can’t remember is it Roy Moore I think that’s what it was, yeah I think that’s what the thing was. I’m like I will never vote for you again you’re a sellout.
So anyway it wasn’t until August 22nd I realized he was running again. I was like “Oh my gosh it just seemed like he had just run against Beto.”
Multi-Agency Contact Failures
Timestamp: 00:23:40 – 00:25:29
Anyway so this is what’s going on okay so I have gone to with all the different things that have gone on, I have contacted four different police departments, three of them I went in person, one of them I called dispatch and I’m have a feeling that that was a fake response of a call. I’ve gone into two FBI offices, went up to Portland and Brendan Parenti, I think he might have been impersonating an agent, told me that what I was saying “didn’t rise to the level of investigation.”
So let me tell you of those 46 areas of criminal activity that I included in that July 28th report I’ve seen a number of them come up as oh yeah you know these are in FBI press releases. So they basically use my information for their own benefit and basically blew me off and I’m still being hacked by jackasses.
I went down to the Salem FBI office thinking “Okay maybe I’ll get a different response.” Craig, I don’t know his last name because he said “I don’t have to tell you my last name.” — very hostile the entire time, he told me that basically that I have to get an attorney because apparently the FBI doesn’t do squat unless if you sue them, that I needed to contact the FTC.
He also told me that — because I had been to the Salem hospital and they falsified my medical records, he said they could do that. No they can’t, no they cannot. They can’t — No business can falsify their records.
He’s said, “well it’s not a business.” The hospital actually is business and you cannot falsify medical records. That’s like a huge thing. He’s said, “We don’t deal with that.” Actually they do, the FBI does investigate falsified medical records.
Ongoing Documentation Efforts
Timestamp: 00:25:35 – 00:26:04
I was gaslit, stonewalled, and basically dismissed. This is the police department and the FBI. I have also been submitting to the Oregon Crimes Stoppers and the US Marshals since August 14th and I counted it. I’m not going to show you all of them but because some of them have names on them and it’s not just things related to me because let me tell you, when you start having criminals come after you literally everything you run into is a crime. Because they’re criminals — that’s what they do. Over a hundred updates since August 14th. Has a single person responded to me? No, not once.
[Just as a side note to a former acquaintance, Joseph Holmes, this … what I described above … is the point of the Barbie Movie. It is the ENTIRE point.]
#NoFear Devotional – The Smoking Gun
Timestamp: 00:26:13 – 00:28:44
So let’s go back to this devotional, because this is related.
So back in 2019 I published this little devotional called #NoFear and that’s how — like I said that’s that’s how I knew like this one — it wasn’t just the things that were coming up with the other devotionals. I could tell they were ripping off my work so anyway some of these — let me look, I guess I don’t have it, oh wait yeah this one. If you go and look at this one this fight fear, this is a real crappy low rent low effort AI generation, it’s not very good. So this one though, this one “No Fear” by Time of Grace, I have no idea what Time of Grace is, but anyway just on Sunday I actually read this.
They did not just pull from — because I’m telling you they’ve stolen everything off my website they’ve stolen all my transcripts they also have sabotaged all of my — go look on Twitter some of the things I’ve posted — but they’ve literally sabotaged transcripts so that my name isn’t correct sometimes they’ve cut off the beginning of the videos they’ve cut out things in the middle so it doesn’t have a prayer in it. I mean it’s just whatever they can to try to cover up their theft but anyway.
So this here is this No Fear devotional, this is this from A Time of grace okay. So when I read this not only have they stolen from this one but I can also tell that this article that I, I wrote it’s on my website at raised to walk, “What is the Name of your Golden Calf?[1]” and also “When David Chose the Plague,[2]” that’s another one that’s incorporated in that and then the third one that I could tell was “Who was Athaliah?[3]” So anyway so somebody actually put effort into this one.
Okay so I’m gonna show you, I’m just going to go to my — this is the PDF version so I actually had started doing live stream readings of this on TikTok and then guess what my account gets flagged for — basically they don’t believe I am who I say I am and I tried to do identity verification showed my ID they said “Oh that’s not good enough.” Anyway so okay so I’m like look here so anyway this is the contents of it and you can see it’s just a 7-day devotional. It’s really, it’s not like — I went back and read it again recently, I’m like “Yeah this is good.” But I didn’t think it was like this massive deal to like be literally plagiarized all over the internet.
So this is I just go through the different types of fear like what is fear and then the main types of fear. So here we go and I’m going to or it’s day three, this is the one I should have got, okay fear of insecurity. Okay so I’m going to read this.
From #NoFear: Day 3
When researching fear I was somewhat surprised to find that the number one fear reported by Americans is a fear of government corruption, 58 percent said they were afraid or very afraid. There were a number of other fears listed that fell into the same grouping: government tracking of data 41 percent, gun control 36.5 percent, Obamacare 35 percent, illegal immigration 29 percent, and drones 20 percent.
Does this surprise you? I have to admit it did surprise me a little. What we fear is evidence of where we put our trust we are extremely fortunate in the United States. We have had a relatively stable civil government ever since our country’s inception with the notable exception of the civil war.
Okay let me just say I published this in 2019. I actually wrote it most of it in 2016 after the 2016 election because there was all these people that I knew that were like freaking out or really scared of things. So most of it I wrote in 2016, I published it in 2019, this was before the insurrection in 2021, just saying just for context.
Our government has a solid foundation and for the most part our citizenship is one that respects and honors that stability …
Again, this was before the insurrection. [4] [5]
We don’t have kangaroo courts or sham elections. We can go and vote without having to fear that we’ll be shot at the polls. We aren’t Afghanistan and we aren’t Iraq. Yet government corruption is the number one reported fear in America.
So obviously I was a little naive because there’s some people that knew more than I did at the time.
Why is this? Is it because our government is where we have placed our trust? Have we put our reliance for our safety in man? Here’s the reality, our government is corrupt in that there is corruption within. It is corrupt because it is made up of fallen humans, individuals with weaknesses and prejudices. People who just like the rest of us often make decisions reacting out of fear rather than analyzing the best course of action.
We are blessed in the United States and that our government was formed with fallen nature in mind. We have checks and balances so that each person in each branch is held accountable.
However, you can’t put your trust in government. You can’t put your trust in the Republican or Democratic party. You can’t put your trust in whether you can own a gun or who is allowed in or who is kept out. None of these things can ensure your security.
It is God alone that is our sure security. Faith in anything else is false hope.
Do you believe that? If anxiety begins to rise, reflect on these verses.
I have songs in the devotional. That was day three of my devotional that I published in 2019.
Biblical Analysis: Deconstructing “No Fear from a Time of Grace”
Timestamp: [33:20 – 39:20]
I’m going to go to day one of “No Fear” from A Time of Grace. This is the first day “The Terror of Terrorism.” This is how it starts out. Just right at the beginning, this is how it starts out.
There have always been acts of sensational violence and terrorism in America …
Really? You obviously don’t know comparisons. Not relative to everywhere else.
But the sad events of 9/11 changed our national psyche forever. Instantaneous worldwide digital media makes all of us aware all of the time of the ways violent predators stalk their prey. How can that not leave you with a deep sense of fear and insecurity? Violent crime and near constant warfare were part of people’s lives in biblical times as well. Terrorists don’t need guns bullets and suicide vests to terrorize people.
I’ve actually said things similar to this
… but knives swords and arrows cause terror too. They shoot from ambush at the innocent, they shoot suddenly without fear, they encourage each other in evil plans they talk about hiding their snares they say “Wait will we see it?” they plot injustice and say we have devised a perfect plan, surely the human mind and heart are cunning.
So this is Psalms 64 4-6. So this is what they want you to focus on.
This side of heaven such human cruelty will always be with us. Satan enjoys human suffering and will goad people on to attack one another but our God sees cares acts protects remembers and will bring justice sooner or later. Our military, CIA, FBI, state troopers and local police are some of God’s answers to our prayers for security. Thank you Lord for these brave men and women protect them as they protect us. Send also your holy angels to keep us in your care. We trust that we are untouchable until we have finished our earthly work for you.
So as it ends, I hope I don’t know if you caught that or not but as it ends it goes from it’s basically like a response from these authorities right. So it’s like this answer from it, it’s just okay. So first of all I read that I was like “Oh my gosh.” So they use these two verses from Psalm 64 as a focus point, so let’s just read all of Psalm 64.
Oh God listen to my complaint,
Does it say “Oh FBI CIA and police departments?” Is this a prayer to them?” No, no.
Protect my life from my enemy’s threats, hide me from the plot of this evil mob from the gang of wrongdoers. They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows.
They shoot from ambush at the innocent attacking suddenly and fearlessly they encourage each other to do evil and plan how to set their traps in secret.
Who will ever notice they asked as they plot their crimes they say we have devised the perfect plan.
Yes the human heart and mind are cunning but God himself will shoot them with his arrows suddenly striking them down their own tongues will ruin them and all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
Then everyone will be afraid they will proclaim the mighty acts of God and realize that all the amazing things he does. The godly will rejoice in the Lord and find shelter in him and those who do what is right will praise him.
So do you see how blasphemous this devotional is? Is this a devotional to God or to the state and the authorities … because that’s what it is? They’re taking credit and this focus onto themselves rather than giving it to God. This is straight up idolatry and it is disgusting.
Okay so if you go through this I’m not going to read all of them, I was going to but it would just be too long and I’m not going to.
This is the thing, when you read the Bible, a lot of times there will be condemnation. God will give warnings to people, but he never leaves you with condemnation. Even after a really severe judgment in the Bible, there’s always a ladder out of the pit. The Lord will end with a way out.
You have a choice. There is hope if we choose right.
The Propaganda Machine: Government PR and Content Manipulation
Timestamp: [39:20 – 48:32]
You read this devotional and it’s like — and I’m not even kidding you — if you read through all seven days of this and you’ll need a psychiatrist afterward because it is really depressing. It leaves you with the message that there’s no hope. The message is everything’s just going to always be bad and you just can’t do anything about it and that’s just the way it is. It’s disgusting.
This is the most obvious propaganda — okay where did it go, all right is it this one, okay when we don’t know what to do and I think this is also plagiarized from my work. I have to go back and look. I mean I recognize it, but I’ve written and published so much, that I don’t remember where it’s from. I think they might have stolen this one out of my Straight Pathways series.[6]
Some problems are smallish and don’t test your brain too much. The water pump on your car breaks down. You have a leaky pipe in your basement. You find some rotten wood under a window sash in your dining room. And then there’s a massive invasion by Moabites or Ammonites from your southern border. King Jehoshaphat of Judah heard alarming news…
I’m not going to go into that because this is my point.
Do you see how this is basically — again it’s political because I realize that there’s a lot of people that don’t know the cardinal directions, but this is a kingdom of Israel in the teal blue. Then you have the kingdom of Judah in kind of the brick red.
Do you see that purple? That’s the kingdom of Moab and the orange right above it is Ammon.
So if we know our directions north is up, south is down, west would be towards the Mediterranean Sea and east would be towards Ammon and Moab.
So let’s just forget about reality because we have to put in a political agenda about ginning up people who are concerned about illegal immigration and open borders that don’t exist and have never existed since for probably like a 100 years or so since — I was going to look this up — it’s been like 1918 we haven’t had open borders since then.[7] So all y’all who came on the boat from Europe and from Ireland and places like that you were basically the horde that just came across open borders, there hasn’t been that since then anyway.
So what do I think this is? I that there was a PR problem for law enforcement and authorities in 2020 especially with the George Floyd murder. What is the response? Is the response to say, “Okay, let’s get out the bad eggs.” I mean, obviously there were some things that happened that were not good. Let’s just acknowledge that and let’s see how can we make things better. How can we make how our police are determined effective, how can we make that to be more community oriented rather than punitive — being a help rather than a harm. How can we do that?
Those are conversations could have been had, but instead I’m thinking this is what happened. They had some idiot PR consultants that don’t know squat and whose strategy is to deny, cover up, and use fake engagement to try to cloud the issue.
I think that Voddie Baucham’s book Faultlines — this is my opinion, I don’t think he wrote that book. I think it was ghost written by someone who’s ignorant and has a very facile understanding of things that they were they were writing about, lazy writing. I think this “No Fear” devotional from A Time for Grace was another one of their PR efforts to basically brainwash Christians into some false idea of Christianity. This is what is just so … it’s so disgusting on so many levels I can’t even — besides the fact that it’s just ignoring geography.
Here’s the thing, there were Levitical laws there were prohibition from going after the Ammonites or the Moabites because they were descendants of Lot.[8] The Lord did not let Israel go after or fight with those countries because they were relatives. That is just a side note. There is so much, so much, so much wrong with that I can’t even tell you.
Digital Harassment and Content Theft Documentation
Timestamp: [46:06 – 51:04]
I think they had some idiot PR consultant because I have seen those same sock puppet clans promoting the FBI social media accounts. They’re promoting posts and accounts with Greg Abbott and Ted Cruz. Nobody likes Ted Cruz. nobody likes Ted Cruz. All that engagement on his social media accounts? It’s fake. It’s fake. I guarantee you nobody’s listening to his podcast either because they fake numbers on Spotify.[9]
Nobody likes Ted Cruz, nobody likes him, nobody wants to listen to him and you can go watch my update about stolen elections that I published in November.[10] I doubt both of his last two elections, I don’t believe it because nobody likes Ted Cruz, nobody likes it anyway.
But I’ve seen these same sock puppets promoting government accounts specifically the FBI accounts. So I think what happened is that they realized that these federal contractors were criminals that stole my work. Rather than firing the people that were the thieves and taking action and prosecuting the federal contractors running the social media accounts, the FBI covered up for them. The FBI covers up for the criminal contractors and the FBI enables the contractors.
Because let me tell you, my site and platforms have been sabotaged since 2021 but the most damage has been done has been after I started calling the FBI and authorities. Every single time — every single time — I contacted authorities and they did nothing, the attacks got massively worse. The attacks got exponentially worse because the contractors knew that the authorities weren’t going to do anything.
So let me tell you if you don’t like that devotional … tough [ __ ]! I don’t care. You know what? You proved me right! You proved me right and that exactly what I was saying was true, everything. People have a reason not to trust you because this is exactly what you’re doing. If you’re going to go after a third grade Sunday school teacher because she’s calling out your criminal contractors, what else are you doing?
And let me tell you another thing, this is why you were fooled by these idiots — because I am sitting here with hacked devices and with communications cut off and I can see exactly what they’re doing and if you can’t see it — if you can’t see it — it’s because you are doing the exact same things that they are. You’re faking stories and impersonating people. You’re being as shady as they are so you cannot see it because you’re part of it. You’re part of it. You don’t even know what truth looks like.
Google Photos Manipulation
You know what else they’re doing? My Google photos have been manipulated and sabotaged. For example, dates changed on photos, locations changed, images tags on photos, the labels for people — all those have been changed. It’s unbelievable the amount of crap that they’ve done. This is just an example. Some of the pictures of me won’t even tag in Google Photos. It’s like whoever is manipulating them doesn’t want to have evidence coming up on tags for me on my name. There were four or five different streams of pictures of me. It’s like they’re tagging photos and changing the tags some way so that if you’re just pulling up a certain name tag, a different story being told through the photos.
What this tells me is that — I’m assuming it’s the government or some program — is illegally accessing my photos because not a single person has ever asked me about those photos and I’ve given them plenty of opportunity to be able to do that. I guarantee you that’s another thing that they’re doing.[11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16]
So no, you’re not trustworthy. You are not trustworthy FBI or CIA or US Marshals or any of you. If you don’t like it then change your behavior. Actually go after the criminals. This is what Jesus meant when he said, Whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven.”[17] You are giving force to the spirit of lawlessness because you don’t do squat about it, you don’t do anything about it.[18] You cover it up because you’re embarrassed that you hired criminals and they fooled you.
So anyway I’m going to wrap this up. There’s so much, there’s like literally so so so much I can’t even tell you, but that devotional let’s just look at this again, let’s just look at this again. This devotional here on YouVersion is the most disgusting thing. I’ve seen a lot of really disgusting things from these “Christian” content generators, that devotional is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life, ever seen in my life. You should be ashamed of yourself.
So anyway, if you want to go and see what has been done you can go to my website at raisedtowalk.org/hacked-the-saga/. You may or may not be able to see it because this is just one example of the sabotage. You see how you can’t see the images? This screenshot is when I was pulling it up on the Tor browser. They’re blocking the access to different assets on my site depending on who’s seeing viewing the site. Who, am I hosting the site with? It’s Green Geeks in California. Why haven’t I changed? They were doing some of the same things on the last three hosts I’ve been with.
What you can do? If you want to help, like and share my posts and videos, that is a great help. Sharing directly by text and email is most helpful as much of my content is blocked and limited on social media platforms. If you want to go and report it to your local FBI office if you can’t see my content that would be amazing also.
When I started researching this I could tell — I knew who they were, — it was really easy to ID the networks because they were stealing details from my life,stories that I shared on social media and in private groups. They were taking posts off my social media and Facebook and feeding it into their sock puppet accounts. It was just like the creepiest thing I’ve ever seen, a bunch of losers, lazy losers.
There were sock puppets that were promoting the Texas Parks Department that were part of this network and they used a story from my life in one of their sock puppets so that’s how I knew one of their client connections. That was one of the first connections I made., Now know a lot more, but that’s a whole another story.
So I went on Texas Smart Buy, just to see if I could find like who the agency was that they were contracting with.[19] That’s when I found that performance report for the Texas Department of Health and Human Services for $35 billion for pens and there was another one for $32 billion. I streamed about it on Saturday and by the following Tuesday, the invoices were edited. But, I still have pictures of the original invoices.[20] [21] [22]
It’s a pretty big deal when you’re being targeted. This is a violation of my First Amendment Right, I’m being targeted because I don’t like Ted Cruz.[23] Nobody likes Ted Cruz.[24] [25] [26] [27] Are they going after everybody that says he’s a hypocrite?[28] [29] [30] [31] Who knows, who knows who else they’re doing the same thing to.
Legal Roadblocks and Government Accountability Issues
Timestamp: [51:04 – 57:23]
Since I’m in Oregon now, I tried to contact this guy, Michael Fuller, who is a civil rights attorney in Portland. He’s with OlsenDaines in Salem and I contacted him. I contacted him back in September and I got a call back from an assistant,”Oh we don’t do this kind of thing.” When I had tried to send an email, my email was blocked, it never went through. I tried calling his office again to schedule a consultation. I have massive amounts of documentation about what I’m talking about. I’m not just pulling this out of the air. I literally have screenshots, reports … you name it I’ve got it, videos all kinds of documentation.
I called OlsenDaines because I wanted to schedule a consultation with Michael Fuller and they said to call another number.
That was Friday. Monday, I get a call at 12:05 p.m. from someone named Kim who said she was his paralegal and wanted to take notes and that they would decide whether or not they were interested in taking the case. I said “I’m not going to discuss this over the phone, I will be more than happy to come in and give people notes but I’m not going to give the details over the phone.” The assistant said “Oh well I’ll ask our attorneys and we’ll see.”
Then at 12:40 p.m. — this is during lunch — I get a text message back saying that they can’t help, they’re not interested, can’t help me.
I find that interesting because I doubt you would find anybody that has as strong of a case as I do. You want to file civil lawsuits? I have at least 10 against major corporations and when you talk about the percentages that attorneys take on these types of cases, they’d be making bank. The lawsuits I have documentation for could literally fund an entire law firm for the next decade and you’re not interested in that OlsenDaines. Okay. If you know attorneys who are interested I have a lot and I want to start nailing these people to the wall.
Also Ron Wyden, I am a registered voter in Oregon and I went into your Salem office — or I tried to. I tried to go into your Salem office on Friday because, again I’m doing these things in person because they intercept my calls and this is what the note on his office door says. The note states Wyden’s congressional staff are not doing walk-in appointments anymore and to schedule an appointment to call that number. So I called that number which was their Portland office, not where I want to go, but I left a message and then I also called and left a message on their Salem number that’s on his Senate website. This is Thursday (almost a week later), I still haven’t gotten a call back from anybody Ron Wyden.
Now here’s the thing, when I lived in Texas, I was in Dan Crenshaw’s district and he’s just a U.S. representative. I walked into his Kingwood office, and even though his social media accounts were spewing a lot of propaganda, his staff member, Elizabeth, was very, very helpful. She was very helpful when I went into Crenshaw’s office to talk to her about the situation with the Afghans. So he’s a representative and I can walk in and talk and file a complaint or a request with them, but I can’t with a U.S. senator?
I also called Mike Waltz’s staff members and talked to them about the whole situation with the Afghans. I’m not even in Florida and his staff members were very helpful. I mean, I know he’s kind of a tool, but his staff members were awesome.
So Ron Wyden, what is the deal that’s going on with your Salem office that they are not responding to somebody who is going to file a complaint? I realize that you have a form on your website for whistleblowers. I guarantee you that’s not secure, I guarantee you it’s not. I’m sure that somebody is swooping in and getting the details of those whistleblower complaints before you even see them.
I’ve been submitting them to the Crimestoppers site and the US Marshals and I know like just by some of the responses after I make a report that site is getting hacked too.
So anyway Ron Wyden I have some things I want to talk to you about. Just FYI, you know when you did that investigation into Facebook because of the whole thing with Cambridge Analytica when Ted Cruz’s campaign was being really invasive and really creepy in their 2016 campaign?[32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37] There was this huge scandal and everything changed.[38] Well guess what? They didn’t change. Oh they did, they did. They got worse. They got a lot worse.
I just thought you might want to know.
Easter Resources and Biblical Truth
Timestamp: [00:56:40 – 00:60:17]
That’s the update. What I’m doing right now is I’m going through and I’m compiling all my video transcripts up to 2021 because that’s when I started writing my Bible studies out and I’ve already submitted that as evidence that is my work.
That’s what’s going on and again, like I said to the FBI, If you don’t like what I have to say then change your behavior because I’m going to still keep saying it because it’s still the truth.
I hope you guys have an awesome Easter. It’s kind of a bummer because I have so many resources on Easter. I have a five-video series on the reasons for Easter, a lot of verse graphics, and I have other articles I’ve written about Passover and Pentecost and Shavout.[39] [40] [41] I really haven’t even had a chance to share those because I’ve been dealing with jackasses and they’re still hacking me.
Technical Evidence of Ongoing Harassment
Timestamp: [00:59:28 – 00:60:17]
I’m using a Dell computer. This is the thing, I know that all the crazy things that have happened is not just from some random hacker. I’m positive they’ve been using government resources for it and again why? Because they want to cover up that they hired criminals anyway. I keep getting these firmware updates from Dell this is a 2019 computer. Seriously, I’ve been getting firmware updates three or four times a week. I’m sure they’re hacking through that too.
So anyway whatever, I know how this ends. They keep doing the same things and now I just see it. They have no creativity at all. They just do keep doing the same things.
I think the FBI is just using me as bait because the people that are coming after me are so dumb that their attacks make it easy to track down and obvious who it is. I did not agree to this. I did not agree to be your bait. I’m pretty sure that’s probably illegal too.
Hope you have a great Easter. If you have any questions about Easter go to my website raisedtowalk.org/topic/on-easter/, The “Hacked: the Saga” updates are a very small part of the content on my site. I wanted to publish my Bible study on “The Reason for Easter” as a book by this Easter but they’ve been stealing my time and stealing my life besides just my words.[42]
Again, I hope you have a great Easter. If you want to stir some up some stuff up, you can share this livestream or some of my other hacked updates. I guarantee you that I’m not the only person that this is happening to. I know that I’m not. Food for thought.
Don’t be shady. Do the right thing.
I’ll talk to you later.

I am including the words of Merrick Garland on the fourth anniversary of the insurrection and attack on our Capitol.
Merrick Garland, “Garland Statement on the Fourth Anniversary of the January 6 Attack on the Capitol,” United States Department of Justice Office of Public Affairs, January 6, 2025, https://www.justice.gov/archives/opa/pr/attorney-general-merrick-b-garland-statement-fourth-anniversary-january-6-attack-capitol.
The Justice Department issued the following statement from Attorney General Merrick B. Garland on the fourth anniversary of the attack on the U.S. Capitol that disrupted a joint session of the U.S. Congress in the process of affirming the presidential election results:
“On this day, four years ago, police officers were brutally assaulted while bravely defending the United States Capitol. They were punched, tackled, tased, and attacked with chemical agents that burned their eyes and skin. Today, I am thinking of the officers who still bear the scars of that day as well as the loved ones of the five officers who lost their lives in the line of duty as a result of what happened to them on January 6, 2021.
January 6 was a violent attack on the law enforcement officers defending the Capitol, and it was an unprecedented attack on a cornerstone of our system of government — the peaceful transfer of power from one administration to the next.
Over the past four years, our prosecutors, FBI agents, investigators, and analysts have conducted one of the most complex, and most resource-intensive investigations in the Justice Department’s history.
They have analyzed massive amounts of physical and digital data, identified and arrested hundreds of people who took part in unlawful conduct that day, and initiated prosecutions and secured convictions across a wide range of criminal conduct. We have now charged more than 1,500 individuals for crimes that occurred on January 6, as well as in the days and weeks leading up to the attack.
The public servants of the Justice Department have sought to hold accountable those criminally responsible for the January 6 attack on our democracy with unrelenting integrity. They have conducted themselves in a manner that adheres to the rule of law and honors our obligation to protect the civil rights and civil liberties of everyone in this country.
I am proud of them, and I am grateful to them for the work they have done and the sacrifices they have made over the last four years to seek accountability for the January 6 attack on the Capitol.”

[11] Note June 2026: I still don’t know what the purpose of manipulating and faking tags and photos in my Google photos. I had to completely remove all personal photos from my Google photos account because it was obvious from the manipulation that someone was trying to use my own memories against me.
Four months after this stream, I discovered an unauthorized Google Family group on my main business Gmail account – one that I have used since Gmail was a thing … twenty years. One of the five unauthorized emails on this account was the university email for Phil Tallon, the Dean of the School of Christian Thought for Houston Christian University. This explained how my photos were being accessed and manipulated, in spite of changing my password and two-factor authentication repeatedly.
Even after deleting the family group, there was some sort of elevated control over the Gmail account. Emails were delayed and sometimes blocked entirely. There was an attempt by Jason Smith (MAA alumnus and former board member of An Unexpected Journal) to fake my affiliation with the journal as late as November 2025, after I had cut all affiliation with An Unexpected Journal in August 2024.
The “friends” were running an academic and intellectual property plagiarism ring, and were using my accounts as mules and my businesses and efforts as fronts.
The point of all this is law enforcement is using AI aggregation and surveillance models as “evidence” and “investigation,” relying on it as truth, when the reality is that the data those models are based on is very easily manipulated. Malignant actors can fake a case against someone they are targeted by planting or manipulating false data.
There was NO point to manipulating my photos to provide “evidence” of a fake story unless someone or something was illegally accessing those photos to be influenced by the fake story.

[13] “The Private Companies Quietly Building a Police State,” Campaign Zero, October 2, 2025, https://campaignzero.org/the-private-companies-quietly-building-a-police-state/.
“The significant role of private companies in police technology makes transparency and accountability increasingly difficult: proprietary algorithms are shielded by legal protections, contracts are negotiated outside of public view, and oversight bodies struggle to access or understand these systems. Lawmakers, meanwhile, struggle to keep pace with rapidly evolving technology. The privatization of policing infrastructure allows surveillance tools to proliferate without public scrutiny and operate beyond the reach of democratic governance and oversight. “

Former Palantir employees wrote:
“They wrote: “democracy faces escalating threats: biometric data collection on immigrant children, journalists being targeted, science programs defunded, and key U.S. allies, like Ukraine, sidelined. Trump’s administration has sought to greatly expand executive powers while alluding to monarchy,” adding that: “Big Tech, including Palantir, is increasingly complicit, normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a ‘revolution’ led by oligarchs. We must resist this trend.”The signees highlight what they say is Palantir’s “increasingly violent rhetoric,” a nod to Palantir chief executive Alex Karp, who publicly boasts about how the company’s tools are used to kill enemies. He once jokingly said that Wall Street analysts who “tried to screw” the company should be sprayed with “light fentanyl-laced urine.””

“Shady, centralized dossiers on citizens are foundational for attacking civil rights and civil liberties—but paper files have long been replaced by a mishmash of electronic forms, biometrics, and data bought off data brokers,” Cody Venzke, senior policy counsel at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), told Newsweek on Monday. “AI platforms like those built by Palantir are the key to pulling together the many data points the government has on each of us—your political donations, governmental benefits, movements, and perhaps firearm records, could someday be a single click away for dozens of governmental agencies.”
[16] Elizabeth Nolan Brown, “How Palantir Is Expanding the Surveillance State,” Yahoo News, June 2, 2025, https://www.yahoo.com/news/palantir-expanding-surveillance-state-160027522.html.
“Creating detailed portraits of Americans based on government data is not just a pipe dream,” notes the Times. “The Trump administration has already sought access to hundreds of data points on citizens and others through government databases, including their bank account numbers, the amount of their student debt, their medical claims and any disability status.”
Washington already has a ton of data on all of us, but it’s often separated across systems and agencies. By linking it all together, the government could create much more detailed profiles on all of us.
More efficient? Probably. But also more dangerous.”

[23] At the time, I thought it was solely political because I wrote a blog post in 2017 titled “On Hanukkah and Hypocrites: an Open Letter to Ted Cruz.”
The politics was part of it. If you are a white evangelical, aparently, you’re not allowed to say anything negative about Republican candidates.
However, I now believe the relentless malice and sabotage directed towards me was because the “friends” were behind the theft of my work and were trying to continue to hide it.
I believe the Ted Cruz-related sabotage (and there was a lot of it, repeated waves of attacks before and after the election in 2024 on posts mentioning him) is just an example of what is considered “strategy” in today’s GOP political landscape. The ratf*cking of the Watergate Era is childs play compared to the tactics used by operatives today.
The “friends” already had a network of sock puppet accounts running undisclosed paid influence campaigns targeting American Christians. I think the Ted Cruz campaign was just another gig for the bots.

“Consumers must recognize that their data has value. Consumers should educate themselves on how companies, especially ones that offer free service like Facebook and Google, use their personal data to drive their businesses. Consumers should read privacy notices and take advantage of the in-product user controls that most tech companies offer. Consumers should take advantage of their rights to request that a company let them view, edit, and delete their personal data because after all, consumers own their data, not companies. When companies engage in fraudulent or deceitful data handling practices, consumers should file complaints with the FTC or other appropriate regulatory bodies. Finally, consumers should advocate for more transparency and controls from companies and demand that their elected officials do more to protect privacy.”

“Plenty of politicians use Facebook to articulate their message. Nothing wrong with that. And I’m not saying Cambridge Analytica did the right thing here, it certainly looks like they’re part of the definition of creepy. But the issue is bigger than just one media consultant abusing Facebook. I want to know if there have been other cases of abuse. I want to know how they’re protecting our data. I want to know how they’re going to stop the Russians from interfering with our midterm elections.”
