Could it be tax evasion? Because their calling their home a "church" is a big-time tax dodge.

Which isn't as "sexy" as child abuse or incest or kiddie porn or all the other things that may be going on in there, certainly child abuse. But it's true.

Financial crimes, money laundering and bulk cash smuggling;

Commercial fraud and intellectual property theft;

Cybercrimes;

Human rights violations;

Human smuggling and trafficking;

Immigration, document and benefit fraud;

Narcotics and weapons smuggling/trafficking;

I’m not that familiar with the Duggars but in googling just now Springdale, AK was mentioned as a town in which they own a lot of property.

The name stood out to me because there was a lawyer who was just arrested for bringing in pregnant women from the Marshall Islands, warehousing them in Springdale and then conducting illegal adoptions in Arizona and Utah.

If it’s true about their real estate holdings, maybe the women were being kept in Duggar-owned houses?

I wouldn't bet on any of the Duggar daughters calling in the feds, they've probably not been taught about complicated things like phone technology and numbers. Those kinds of airs might make them unsuitable for marriage as child brides.

[quote]I dont think the Dept of Homeland Security would pay them a visit if this was merely illegally operating a business. They have a shady fake charitable organization that I hope is being investigated. They funneled money and supplies away from hurricane victims and brought their personal sidearms to another country where several reporters saw them brandishing the weapons and stealing from other aid organizations. Perhaps they will answer for it. I am really hoping that more minor daughters have not been harmed.

There are frequent blinds about this family on CDAN.

Whether there was a raid or just a target letter directed at the reality family from the feds, it doesn't change the fact that at least one pre-teen distant family member was somehow living with the pedophile. It also doesn't change the fact that the family is deleting a ton of social media posts, turning off comments and trying to scrub any actions they did overseas as part of "charitable relief."

One thing I learned about most high dollar religious people is they'll do business with Satan and then claim they're using the money to do the Lord's work. They think it's okay to make money any way you can, honestly or illicitly, as long as they claim it's all for God. Of course they're idea of "doing the Lord's work" means keeping themselves in luxury. It's all part of their fucked up "prosperity gospel", better known as "I got mine, you can't have any of it, and fuck the rest of you".

Yeah. I want to know if she's a relative, or a domestic slave who's scrubbing floors and changing nappies 20 hours a day while Anna puts her feet up, or is being abused by Josh, or both.

Because that's how dominionists treat adolescent girls, as domestic slaves. Mother's little slavey, or dad's, or big brother's.

R70, Dominionism covers a spectrum of groups that seek to install a fundamentalist government in the United States — one that will govern by biblical law.

In terms of the day-to-day lives of Dominionists, the two social movements of note are Christian Patriarchy and Quiverfull. They’re two sides of the same coin, with the former concerning itself with Christian male dominance over all things and the latter covering breeding, home-schooling, and ensuring that the children are kept uneducated, isolated, and compliant enough to carry on the tradition. Quiverfull comes from the following bible passage:

[quote]As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Viewed through the Christian Patriarchy lens the “like arrows in the hand of a warrior” part is taken literally, as in creating a huge arsenal of weapons (children) to use in the fight to install a Biblical government.

I haven’t really paid much attention to the Duggars (or the other TV families of their ilk) until now because I have enough LDS fuckery in my own family to keep me entertained, but in googling them after this story broke I’m kind of surprised that their ideology seems to be completely swept under the rug apart from a few websites run by people who escaped.

Trollope's Barchester Towers has a character named Quiverful who is an impoverished young clergyman with a dozen children and a member of the faction of the Low Church (evangelical). Trollope depicts the character as honest and a dutiful father but appears to be criticizing the gospel as interpreted by the movement on practical terms.
