This is an outrage, this issue is something that deserves front-page breaking news. I was told that I couldn't ask my son if he brushes his teeth twice daily because I was not to inquire about his daily habits. His Father was awarded custody of him in Fairfax County VA, last year because I was brave enough to expose his abuse. This ended up costing me everything, including my son. Navy Federal still employs him after being made aware that he text me from his NFCU phone asking me why I haven't offed myself yet. Not only are the courts to blame, but now Navy Federal just wants to sweep this behavior under the rug. These stories need so much attention, it is horrific. Shame on this agency for what it did to this Mother
Oh, Oregon DHS, truly the Picasso of punishing protective parenting. Their latest masterpiece? Suspending a mother’s visitation rights for having the audacity to say she’s fighting for her kids in court. How dare she advocate for her children using legal channels! Doesn’t she know the preferred parenting style is silence and subjugation?
Martina Flanigan must’ve missed the DHS parenting handbook: Step 1—Accept abuse. Step 2—Smile through trauma. Step 3—Never, ever question authority. But instead, she brought science to a feelings fight—a brain scan showing trauma consistent with strangulation. And for that? She got her visits yanked. Because clearly, the real threat to child safety is... MRI machines?
Meanwhile, the court, in an award-winning performance of judicial logic, agreed the kids shouldn’t go back to their abuser—but also shouldn’t go home to the loving mother who proved the abuse. Instead, they’re in foster care, where visits are rationed like luxury perfume samples. One hour a week—canceled if you say the wrong thing. How very 1984, but with juice boxes.
And let’s not forget the supporting cast: the social worker who dismissed clear disclosures of abuse and then gaslit the family into “alienation.” Or the state officials launching bureaucratic drone strikes against Jill Jones Soderman, because apparently advocacy is now an indictable offense in Oregon.
Soderman said it best—this is “A Clockwork Orange,” but updated for 2025. The victims are recast as villains, and the institutions meant to protect children are too busy protecting themselves.
So let’s all give a standing ovation to DHS for their next-level logic: when a mother uses science and courts to protect her kids, the correct response is punishment. Bravo. Encore. And someone please send them a copy of the Constitution—maybe they’ll read it during the next intermission between rights violations.
I have lived in different parts of the world for extensive periods and experienced different cultures - What I find absolutely SHOCKING and very DISTURBING is that the public ACCEPTS this in the so-called civilized Western 'democracies' ... I find that outrageous!
The govt. and it's agencies claiming any rights to children much less forcibly separating them from their parents is practically unheard of in other parts of the world ... It's rightly called kidnapping in those 'uncivilized' 3rd world countries where 'street justice' is still a very real thing - you pay with your life for snatching children from their parents - there is no judge, no PM, no DHS employee, no police officer who would dare pull this stunt esp. 'under the color of Law' and then not find a very angry mob (comprising of parents, relatives, neighbors, friends and everybody who wants to join) ready to set the court or police station on fire 🔥 ... Why this crap is tolerated by parents in the 'developed' world is beyond any comprehension. I do not understand or endorse this form of bizarre, illogical 'civility' - Neither the govt. nor 'social services' (wolf in sheep's clothing) have any rights whatsoever to our children. Period. This sheep mentality can only lead people to the butcher's block and nowhere else. Absolutely preposterous and unbelievable.
Mary and William and the journal of race, gender and social science from 2015 explains much of why you are often attacked. Big shift in 2011 under Obama created big problem for domestic violence victims and children suffering from abuse. There is a lot of lobbing based on false information. Lots of money to suppress the problems. The alienation industry is going to continue to attack you. The money they are receiving for "study group". " Engaging problematic fathers" all the push custody and child support and alimony obligations.
Dave Weigel is seriously right, if we operated our businesses like this, we would be arrested and in handcuffs. This has been-going on this long with DHS/CPS….FOLLOW THE MONEY. To treat our precious future, our children, like this is a disgrace. CPS should be defunded audited and abolished.
The fact that they are able to do this so boldly and are being allowed to get away with it only means one thing - there are far more snakes in the pit than we imagined.
There needs to be an Emergency Exit strategy - some legal backdoor - to get all the parents and children OUT of this system they are now caught in like flies in a web. It's clear they want to get their dirty hands on our children. It's not just about the money with these Psychopaths!
I lived in Oregon 45 years have seen this happen it so Illogical. The either ignore Situations when they should not or go over the top on situations when they should not.
The operation goes beyond the child support money. In a review of budgeting for Connecticut a caution for not supervising " high risk studies". Much funding around healthy marriage and responsible fatherhood. 503 c non profit organization. These are untold stories about the money we as tax payers are unaware of. Millions , possibly billions of dollars are paid for reports designed to help make responsible determination on family court. According to public information. Approximately 25 percent of family court cases are deemed high conflict. What is the determining factor. Some type of alligations. According to information on the internet 2 to 30 something are false. Meaning approximately 80 percent or more are real. Yet, we have an industry claiming 90 percent are false. In their opinion 99 percent of accusations are false. Using an adaptive to explain away the problem. A defense engineer by a Dr. Who is controversial and an elite group feels they should be the only one allowed to determine custody cases. This right here is a business model and a lucrative one. Evidencary hearings are not held. The judges flip custody. In a study the tax payer dollars it was determined that children suffer poor adjustments with high levels of shared parenting. Yet we are to believe that these are best interest of children by the industry promoting an adjective. The government research grants are given through the the department of child and family services as well as the office regulation for the welfare money. Yet absolutely no one considering that the business model is beyond the child support system? Our tax dollars being used for what? In a case of custody flipping to a domestic batter was overturned. Why would a judge tell a mother to kick her child out of the house to force the flip. An almost aged out child got into a physical altercation with the domestic batter when the forcing of the flip was made. These children are having to physically defend themselves from being turned over. Run away to New York seeking safe harbor. Adult child nearly starved to death are burning the house down to get out. The " mental health professional" using an adjective to defend their position is well aware of the business model. When it looks like shit, feels like shit, smells like shit. It's shit. A pile of shit is sitting in every court house in the country.
None of what we observe in Family Courts makes logical sense if we continue to operate under the assumption that these courts are proper constitutional entities committed to justice and the protection of vulnerable victims. This assumption is False and is not supported by how these courts function in real life.
What many don't realize is that Family Courts are not Article III courts. They are administrative courts that operate WITHOUT the same constitutional and due process protection, including the right to a jury trial or uniform evidentiary standards, found in criminal or civil courts. They not only lack transparency and accountability and rely on discretionary rulings that evade appellate review, they are also financially incentivized to prolong cases and escalate conflict. The longer and more contentious the case, the greater the profit for the system through repeated hearings, mandated services, and the involvement of court-appointed professionals, and later down the pipeline, through child trafficking.
Here's how it's being done ....
Family Courts systematically escalate conflict in custody disputes in order to engineer what they then like to call 'high conflict' cases because there is more money to be made by prolonging the case. Once they are able to designate a case as "high conflict," (code word for 'cash cow' and 'child trafficking goldmine') it then opens the doorway to bring in the 'experts' to do the dirty job —custody evaluators, parenting coordinators, therapists, guardians ad litem etc. — these 'experts' then use their 'expertise' to create more false labels for the court in order to provide the court with a pretext to snatch the children away from the good protective parent (the gatekeeper) under the guise of "best interest of the child - This is a CRITICAL step without which the rest of their plan will not go through.
Once they have MARGINALIZED and effectively sidelined the protective parent (the gatekeeper) the game becomes a lot easier to play. The child is then either placed directly into the foster care system or, if they encounter procedural issues but primarily to avoid suspicion in the early stages, custody is first transferred to the less stable or even abusive parent - for a while - until the child can be funneled into the foster care system at a later time without raising any suspicion. The non-protective (oftentimes abusive) parent may know this and be complicit or they may not know this and yet serve as a useful idiot for the child trafficking network. Either way, the 'useful idiot' creates the perfect opportunity for the system — the racketeering network — to generate substantial profits, even before the trafficking arm is fully activated later in the process.
The foster care system thus becomes a CRITICAL node in the Child Trafficking industry and serves as the holding place ('reservoir') that feeds the pipeline while facilitating the trafficking of children under legal cover.
This whole process follows a recognizable pattern—an informal yet consistent sequence of steps, replicated across jurisdictions and traceable through court records, policy loopholes, and funding structures - all pointing to the existence of an unwritten PLAYBOOK designed to exploit families and specifically children rather than protect them.
Parents have not lost our minds. This is actually happening.
