I honestly don’t recall how I first found out about the Treehouse. Probably a link on a conservative site. All I know is, for over four years it has been a daily (multiple times daily) part of my news and politics information gathering.

I found CTH in late 2015/early 2016, when I got tired of the lamestream media’s coverage of candidate Donald J. Trump, and I’ve been here ever since. I’ve stuck around because it’s the only place to get fair, thorough, and intelligent coverage of what’s actually going on. Sundance and the other Treepers’ positivity and wittiness make the Treehouse into a haven from all the nastiness and negativity found elsewhere, and has helped me and my family get through all the madness by arming us with knowledge and, on occasion, bringing a smile to our faces. Sundance’s classic post on the power of vegetables to protect against COVID is still one of our favorites!

I don’t exactly remember how I found you but it was probably a link in something else I was reading.
Once I started reading I loved the in-depth reporting and the very real intelligent Christian perspective.
I would never want to leave because the amount of research and in-depth knowledge is
not replaceable on-line. I’ve learned most from this site.
Thank you

Found it by a suggested link from an interesting sounding conservative on another site. Once on site, the Andrew Breitbart logo spoke volumes.

Came here looking for a conservative refuge with the following ethos:

Keep it clean..
Keep it brave..
Keep it honest
Keep it truthful..
Keep it positive…
Keep it Constitutional..
Keep it pro-Trump, America First
and last but not least,
Keep it pro-life.

Stayed because of the quality of information shared, friendship expressed and the quality of leadership and management of the site experienced on an ongoing basis … special call out to the Admins for keeping the train on the tracks.

I don’t quite remember when I found CTH. It was during the Obama time and I was quite distressed about what was happening in our country. I was looking for an alternate for facts and sharing and that is how I found CTH. Once here, I stayed. I remember in the most difficult times thinking that I needed to “climb into the treehouse” for awhile. I liked the dialog and participated some. At some point I could no longer “like” posts. Never quite figured out why that happened. Sundance’s insights are invaluable and I like to see the highlighted posts come up meaning that Sundance has posted. I also like to consider myself a “treeper” along with other fellow travelers along this path.

I found this Island of refuge in 2015 when I was lamenting the death of the Andrew Breitbart spirit. He taught me how to fight back in my own little world. I followed a link from a comment at Breitbart from someone who said there was still a fighting spirit going on here. What I found was so much more. I found real investigative work taking place with a comment section that was civil. Since then I have been a daily (Multiple times a day) reader who has gone deep in the weeds with all the content here. I am incredible careful what I share and the depth here allows me to be comfortable sharing the content here. I have made my choice. I will stand and fight. Metaphorically and or literally if need be. I have thought what that might mean for my family if we go down a deep dark hole in this country. My love for God and country demands it.

How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….
In the fall of 2015 I stumbled on the CTH while looking for unbiased information on the Trump campaign and honest analysis of Trumps chances in the election.

What was it that brought you here?…
I believed the mainstream media were all propagandist and have not watched CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, etc…. since the summer/fall of 2015.

And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value? I check out what’s on the CTH everyday, (but this is my first time leaving a reply) and will continue to do so because I felt and continue to believe that I receive good, honest and unbiased political information.

I found you by following a commenter’s link to CTH on Breitbart. I saw the red-headed girl staring at the approaching storm and learned what I was feeling was Cold Anger. It was like you were reading my mind.

During the campaign of 2015/16, I learned about the Chamber of Commerce and the Uniparty, the splitter strategy, the monster vote, and The Big Ugly. I was certain DJT was going to win and told all my friends about your amazing analysis.

This is my go-to site for news and analysis. Truly a Last Refuge as it is the only thing that has kept me sane these last five years. Thank you for all you do and for the wealth of knowledge and insight of those who comment here.

I got here from links at Lucianne. I was incredibly impressed when Sundance was first to explain that RussiaRussia was not about Russia at all, just a legal framework to justify partisan surveillance. Other than PDJT, Sundance tells more of the truth he knows, than any other really extremely shrewd person in the US today. Most hold back and play a game. I like and respect the other commenters here.. And I appreciate that the moderators shut up commenters who are racist or crazy or mean. I have shared values here: love, honor and serve God in this life, be happy with him forever in the next.

I came here after getting sick and tired of listening to tick tock Hannity. I knew something was up with the Russia thing. I typed in “best conservative blogs” (something along those lines) in Google and stumbled upon a list of 10 or so websites with the CTH being one. The rest is history.

The search for truth is what brought me here and what keeps me here.

Thank you CTH and the rest of this community. Many people around me know what the big club knows we know because of this site.

God bless America and our great leader PDT!

I started reading here with the Trayvon coverage, but became a daily reader with the Jessica Chambers coverage. I was hooked on the posts and comments.

I stayed a daily reader because I’m a political junkie and CTH is the best political/current events blog on the interwebs.

During the 2015 presidential primaries, the coverage was the best I had ever seen about US political parties, elections, campaign finance, etc.

I have watched as a lurker for years. I was part of a community of people who kept track of cable news ratings. As a news junkie finding places that you trust are few and far between. The I seem to remember using Disqus as the commenting platform, can’t remember the one before that. Will still be following as the next phase occurs. I had been gone for a bit and Dan Bongino brought mentioned it a few times and now it’s my go to place.

What brought me here? I cannot remember exactly how I got to CTH, but I arrived in the middle of the Trayvon/Zimmerman fiasco.

Why did I stick around? The meticulous, detailed, accurate and careful reporting you do is what caused me to stick around. CTH is an example of what journalism should be. Unfortunately in the world of American Pravda, it seldom is.

Thank you for the ride so for and looking forward to many years to come.

I was directed here by my Patriot dad just this past June when rioting was the all encompassing news and Biden was “campaigning” from his basement. I was still reading FOX news articles and one day just got fed up with their juvenile writing style and non-information. As soon as I read Sundance’s articles, I knew I was in the right place! Intelligent and insightful information! I check a couple of other sources but always, ALWAYS end up here for the real deal and the real conversation.

Dang, I’m not sure of the year, but I read and posted at a site called “Hillbuzz.” Owner was a gay guy who had been a rabid Hillary fan but finally saw the light and espoused conservatism (on some issues). About the same time there was a site called “Mostly4Us.” Several of us moved here after that. As many others said, it was too bad Drudge started out on the right but suddenly became far left. In addition to CTH, I’ve tried to read OANN and a few others. Honestly, what really turns me off on them is the GRAPHIC LAYOUT of their home page. Waaaay too busy and hard to read. Maybe it’s my age, but the Treehouse design is simple and matter-of-fact. I will be following wherever Sundance leads!

I found CTH during the Trayvon Martin mess. I was reading an article on pjmedia.com that linked to CTH and relied heavily on the research done by Sundance.

CTH was the only place I could find extensive information on the events of that night and the subsequent trial. CTH is the only place that published the whole truth and exposed Angela Cory for what she was.

I kept coming back for the truth. And each time I was not disappointed.

Thank you for your efforts.

I’ve tried to remember just when I first found this site. Rathergate? Tea Party?
Earned trust is why I keep coming back. The search for truth in an American way without disparaging name calling enables me to share information with friends and family regardless of their political affiliations and ‘inherited’ party registration. That respect is valued highly with me.
I admire the way Sundance thinks and communicates. I was a long time reader when the Splitter Strategy was laid out and I started sharing links more often. We watched in real time those predictions prove his insight and understanding of ‘the big picture’ in a most thoughtful and thought provoking manner.
Big Bonus that I noticed after sharing articles from CTH – my friends and family look at me like I’m the one that’s suddenly smarter. 😉
I’ll be sending you some more money to help with your moving costs and look forward the the new Tree House warming. I joined WordPress in 2017 just to comment on your site and will be closing my account and webpage on Dec. 2. See you on the sunny side!
When I’m counting my blessings I count you twice! 😀

Wandered in one day, found my way of thinking validated here and that was comforting. I’m forever grateful to Sundance and everyone else here at the Treehouse. Looking forward to CTH 2.0.

I came here as a result of a continuing quest for information about Barack Obama’s altered, amended, or forged birth certificate. Many of the sites I visited in regards to the topic eventually shut down or stopped covering it. CTH had the most information that corresponded to what I knew from my professional life. The same quality of research here carried me through IRS targeting, Fast and Furious, Benghazi, Russian Collusion, and right up to the present day. I don’t always know the truth, but I almost always know when I’m being lied to, and I’ve never felt lied to by the CTH.

I really don’t remember how I discovered your site, but I’m so glad I did. I’ve loved to read posts on this site nearly every, single day for the past several years. It gives me hope that there are like-minded people out there-even though most of you are much smarter than I am, and I’ve never posted a comment.
I would like to know how we will find you in the future? Will you contact us to let us know when you are all settled in so we can start reading posts from all of you amazing, smart people-or will we just have to hope we run across you again? Will you use our email addresses to contact us? I am not great with technology, and wouldn’t know how to do a search to find this group again. If I can’t find this group in the future, a very important part of my morning will be missing each day. Thank you!

I’ve been here for going on 7 years now. We are never too old to learn and between Sundance and the commenters here, real education, truth and wisdom are available.

Been reading since Zimmerman. I have always had an idealistic vision of what journalism is suppose to be. I have now given up on that. So I seek alternative news. And I have a great deal of contempt for those that wish to destroy alternative news. I have no desire to tell others they can’t speak. In fact, I invite all to the floor. It is their desire to crush American voices is what bothers me. They can’t shut me up. The more they push, the harder they will fall.

We found you, Sundance, thru one of Breitbart’s commenters. I had liked his logical spot-on comments and noticed the TCTH address on his three different comments before I finally thought maybe that’s his site and maybe I can get more of his reasonable thoughts. I clicked onto it and it was you and TCTH we found back in July 2015.

We got drawn to your three articles that resonated with us. The topic were about trillions are at stake, the Uni Party and…… Cold Anger. Our dots we had carried with us for decades finally connected and perplexing missing pieces of the truth were found. I’m glad you are repeating them. Keep doing it. People forget due to distractions.

Your articles shows TRUTH which was all we seek/wanted and you gave background information thru your thorough research which helped clarify situations. We were also extra thrilled that it was/is a Christian site as well for those who want to quote scripture or pray and a Prayer Request for those who are in need of prayer. The Treehouse is a very open and welcoming community…..full of Love, Respect, Loyalty, and American Patriotism…. the same values many of us were raised on.

And then, of course, the very thing we were looking for, a Trump loyalist which we had a hard time finding any back in 2015. All of our family members and media focused on bashing Trump all the time. Media had no other news to report. No wonder their followers are useful idiots. All they learned the last five years is “bash and hate Trump.” I’m not sure if they are aware of a thing call Congress. Ha!

We didn’t know there were Treepers chattering among the branches and leaves above us as we were content to sit on the ground leaning against the trunk reading your news. I stumbled.. or was it tumbled?…. onto the comment section around the holiday season of 2015-Duh!. So hubbie and I climbed the tree and found our family…you all. All, minus the trolls, very articulated, intelligent people and gifted researchers. It was perfect for us…our love and appreciation expanded to all of you, with different perspectives and life experiences as well as common opinions.

We love the way the site was set up….very easy to maneuver around. And oh, how clean it is, AdRem, Menagerie and the crew have done a beautiful job. We felt very safe here, being able to expand our thoughts rather than get railroaded into a narrow point of view. The Admin has done a great job and I commend them for that.

Keep up and good work, dear Sundance…that includes Adrem, Menagerie and the crew.
Both hubbie and I LOVE you all very much. Yo all are precious in His Sight.
Treehouse Rulez! MAGA

“….But as for me and my Treehouse, we will serve the Lord.”
Paraphrase from Joshua 24:15b “But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”

Sundance — am honored to reflect on your questions and provide the following:

I came to CTH from a link off AT in 2018 and stayed because of:

1. the intellectual insight provided by you and the “crowdsourcing” ability of all the Treepers;

2. Grandma Covfefe’s ritual prayer and Stillwaters morning reviews of the previous days news;

3. The Open thread – it is the CULTURE of the treehouse:

Deplorable Infidel’s faith
Garrison’s guitars
Gunny66 “hold my beer”
Burnett’s music
Van Dusen’s art
Menagerie’s holiday postings
Lucille’s Bench Mondays
The Devilbat
The duchess01
Weeweed
Rah’s trucker reports
Sepp’s consistency
Auscitizenmom
Vikingmom
amjean
Nwtex
And last but not least
F.D.R in H3LL

Cold Anger
Suspicious cat
The Redheaded daughter

…and how many more have contributed music, paintings, beliefs, prayers on whatever “art” theme their soul desires.

I could go on and on and on.

This is the “…treehouse…” culture that when allowed to flourish becomes

“…the love that weaves the tapestries of our souls together…”

peace n blessings

ps: will send more via email tomorrow to adrem

I found you somehow by accident. Searching conservative I think.

I stayed because the quality and the truth attracted and comforted me, as well as educating.

Reading CTH gives me confidence and faith that the rational, disciplined, professional adult moral actors will prevail, that sanity still exists and that the fundamental decency of America is in the same place it always was. If the press ignores this, that is a comment on their ignorance, not reality.

As long as Sundance is analyzing and writing, and all those knowledge filled treepers are helping— then I have confidence renewed that I can tackle my share of the challenges.

I came just after George Zimmerman trial wrapped up. I think ad part of the effort to understand that deal. It was just before the Big Mike story.
I gave up on the bizarreness of the Democrat party in 2000, when I opted to vote for Nader.
I am one if the first people to describe the Liberal phenomenon as a cult.
That idea is fairly well- circulated now.

I’ve been reading CTH for several years, like 5-6 but couldn’t figure out how to comment. WP is impossible! So, I just read until I was able to get a sign on and a password they would accept.about a year ago. I found your site through another site where comments are able to be made.

The knowledge I e gained and the kindred spirits here are precious beyond measure!

God bless each of you as we stand together against evil! We simply must, or the Republic is gone.
We have a big job. President Trump stood up for us. Now, we stand with and for him!

CTH’s coverage of the Trayvon Martin case is what brought me here. Only the people who were reading this blog at the time had any real understanding of the case.

I was a dyed in the wool neo-con who subscribed to The Weekly Standard, believed in the New American Century and thought that endless war / Pax Americana (I would not have called it that), what came to be known as free trade– all of it was what I thought Ronald Reagan stood for. I was immersed in what I now call “the conservative cottage industry”– speakers, talk show hosts, news outlets, authors of books– all promising to reignite the spirit of Reagan. So, naturally- I bought Ted Cruz (circa 2015) hook-line-and-sinker. I wasn’t a rabid anti-Trumper, but I truly did not understand all the hubbub. I knew he didn’t call ALL Mexicans horrible things when he came down the escalator– I knew that was crap– but I still found the whole (I thought at the time) unremarkable event a mere sideshow- a spectacle- a “shiny object” to distract us from the “serious work that needed to be done” by people like Ted Cruz. That’s the pre-CTH backstory…

My wife was Trump from the word go. A good friend of mine was Trump from the word go. My friend turned me on to CTH. I began to read and follow- but I still voted for Ted Cruz in the primary in Florida. Later that same week, I was stunned- shocked beyond belief- that President Trump’s Chicago rally was canceled due to Democrat domestic terrorist activity. I expected shenanigans (I was born and raised in Cook County, IL just outside Chicago), but I didn’t think political speech should be shut down by violence like that– but what was even more shocking was when Senator Ted Cruz blamed the violence on then-candidate Trump. I wanted my vote back. I was livid.

I continued to follow the Treehouse and made up my mind that whatever I thought of Donald J. Trump, he was making all the right people angry. I had my reservations about whether he would flip flop on things like national healthcare and the right to life– but I had to take him at his word. It was very clear he was going to win the nomination and we had no other options.

He won the nomination, and then I really woke up. After decades of voting for George H.W. Bush, Dole, W, McCain and Romney- understanding and believing that we needed to “hold our noses” and vote to keep the likes of Clinton and Obama out of office– the same GOP establishment that is sitting quietly and idly by right now while Democrats attempt to steal a landslide victory from President Trump– who told us all those years we had to hold our noses and vote for whomever had the “R” next to their name all of the sudden became “Never Trump” and now the “Lincoln Project”– anway– my Trump journey is really the story of my CTH journey.

It was here where the issues– down to the granular details– were made clear to me. It was here where I woke up.

I was a YUGE fan of Andrew Breitbart. I read anything he wrote. After his death I was looking for another good source of conservative information. I saw Breitbart in your masthead and decided to check out the site. I have been here every since. I was on American Thinker. Still a good site. I was on Hot Air but they went too far left and I and many others left the site. I was on Red State but disagreed with them twice for supporting the uniparty and was banned. Good riddance to them. I critisized them for kissing Reince Priebus’ ass at Red State and that did not sit well with them.

I stayed at CTH because the material is well written, factual, detailed, and is the only site I can get the truth regarding politics and how it is effecting our country. I spend far too much time on the site. I visit it numerous time each day. I read all of the comments. It is moderated well, and I feel at home among conservative Christians who love America. It is by far the best blog on the internet. I have sent many friends to this site. Hardly a day does not go by that I don’t include a link to CTH to someone in my emails.

God Bless Sundance and all the mods and commenters.

Brought to this site by my sister!! A true patriot!! I look to each post and hash out as personal friends!! I felt like a misfit for so long always knowing that I was on the rightside and watching those around me melt into who is who in hollywood or clicking in to one way thinking. Here at CTH I am not alone!! Thank you for a bunch of conservative free smart loving people!! GOD bless!!

I don’t remember how I got here, but you provide me hope and optimism. There are 3 people I revere. Donald Trump, Rush Limbaugh, and Sundance. Sadly he first two have short half lives. I don;t know what I would do for information, if this ended.
God bless you Sundance is whatever manner you proceed.

How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….
I came to rely on CTH for well-reasoned, well-supported and more thorough analysis of political and economic issues than I found on most other conservative opinion commentary sites. Of most interest was the more intelligent, thoughtful comments under each article where ad hominem and sophomoric arguments were non existent. This set CTH apart from almost every other conservative news/ opinion site that I had experienced.

What was it that brought you here?…
Saw a comment under a Breitbart article that linked to an article on the same topic in CTH. The CTH article was so well-written and thorough, and the comments below it were of such a higher caliber than the Breitbart comments, that I bookmarked CTH for future reference.

And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value?
What primarily attracted me to remain a daily visitor to CTH was (and still is) the quality and consistency of Sundance’s research and analysis that always builds upon his previous work on the same subject matter, and which includes numerous links to that prior work as well as to all external sources that are used in the development of his opinions, predictions, and speculations presented therein. The clear difference between CTH and most other sites is the absence of globalist bias or any MSM-style false narratives. Facts, supporting evidence, and reasoned analysis based upon those facts is a huge factor that separates CTH from the majority of other opinion sites.

Secondly, the quality of many of the comments under each article that indicates a broad range of professional and experiential knowledge across the many hundreds of commenters (Treepers) has created a community in which one common theme, respect and preference for the MAGA values and policies promoted by President Trump,, as well as support for the President himself. The reader comments, more often than not, add significantly to the information that a visitor can draw from this site.

How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?…. A friend referred me in the summer of 2016. He said Sundance has a pretty good track record getting it right.

What was it that brought you here?…. Looking for truth that the main stream media and politicians are not providing.

And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value? I like the depth of research, links to source documents, and the polite and smart comments.

I came here to the Treehouse during the Michael Brown/ Ferguson Mo fiasco ( 2015?) through a link posted at a Crime Blog I had visited at that time. My eyes were opened wide to the Media spin and Political Bias then. I was instantly taken with the incredible writings of Sundance, as well as many commenters. I was impressed with the Open Thread, The Lord’s Prayer posted in broad daylight for all to enjoy! What a fine group of ‘Misfits’ we are! I have been blessed by coming here daily by the knowledge, fellowship and camaraderie that is CTH .

I heard a story in passing about a girl burned from the inside out. That girl was Jessica Chambers. I wanted to learn what that was about and how on Earth that could ever come to be.

I read and stayed because of the depth of research and inquiry about the people and places. Honestly, when I first started reading the site, CTH seemed more like conspiracy theory — not because of the story or writing, but that amount of digging in the dirt was so uncommon that it all seemed unreal. Of course it wasn’t (and I knew that) and have never felt occasion to leave.

Wherever 2.0 floats up to the surface, we’ll all recongregate there. It’s like when my parents moved away after I and the siblings all left the nest. My home in blue-collar Orange County (Cal. version) was really the only home I had ever known. But when my parents moved one state farther east, I was surprised I felt no real nostalgia for the house I grew up in and my parents had vacated. No, home was wherever mom and pop were. WordPress was the house; Sundance and crew are the home.

Thank you so very much.
I started stopping by about in ’12 or ’13 to see what was going on. Other blogs would make reference to the wisdom of Sundance, but I did not understand the reference at first, finally searched for Sundance, gratefully found the site. For the past 5 years it has been a daily read and many days multiple visits.
Thank you for all efforts of creating a refuge, having the energy to write and share your incredible research.
Maybe CTH 1.0 is just Echo Base

I came by the first time during the Travon Martin affair and came back when Trump announced.
I stayed for several reasons. I became utterly disillusioned with Limbaugh, Fox, Hannity, etc in the late 90’s- early 00’s because they were #batteredconservativesyndrome purveyors and couldn’t provide a unifying theory to explain modern politics. The CTH provided a compelling theory on current politics and could explain Trump and MAGA policies.
I was disappointed you stayed with the ‘vote R at all costs’ mantra since I see no useful purpose for that approach. It just delays the inevitable.

I first came to CTH through a link from another site.
The article Cold Anger had me fist bumping into the air shouting “THAT’S ME, MY FAMILY, MY CO-WORKERS!
I’ve been an avid reader since.
If something made a big headline, I’d wait for a clarification from SD or another admin.
Never failed. After 5 years I can’t “unsee” the corruption, lies, disinformation put out by the uniparty and media.
Where CTH goes I will follow. My small branch here is as important to me as my future, as I now see them intertwined.
It’s family, truth, soldiers of freedom.
It’s AMERICA!

Found CTH via Citizen Free Press about a year ago. Saw an article by Sundance and put the CTH site on my homepage. I’ve been addicted since then and have converted 4 other new treepers. Thank you Sundance and team for all your work.

I found CTH when I was looking for reliable news on the 2016 GOP primaries. I stayed when I found all the info and research on the Uniparty – something I had instinctively learned to identify, but found explained and verbalized here, which made me feel like maybe I wasn’t crazy after all. I stayed for the solid reliable reporting. I don’t always 100% agree with every conclusion, but I will follow this site wherever it lands, no question.

Shortly after the 2016 election and my initial confusion about the liberal meltdown, I was very fortunate to receive the vicious, hateful email from Bill Penzey. That email opened my eyes, woke me up, and sent me on a quest for information. Long story short, I ended up on Twitter where I found & followed The Last Refuge. I left Twitter in 2018 & found my way to the CTH. This has truly been my refuge. CTH is my main source of news, commentary, and exposure to many sources of information. There are so many bright, insightful, helpful, & emotionally honest people here. And a few jerks too. The focus here is set by Sundance and is, for the most part, faithfully adhered to by the subscribers. That is exactly what makes the CTH so unique & valuable to those who dwell here.

To be honest I don’t remember the first time I was directed to The Treehouse. Thinking back,, the first time I remember reading the Treehouse it was probably about the Trayvon Martin investigation. Once I realized the quality of the investigative reporting and the depth of penetration for fact finding, I was hooked. Since that time, my visits to the Treehouse are part of my daily routine. Impressive and important details along with thought provoking commentary keep me coming back every day to read and educate myself on the truth. The Treehouse is the Truth as I see it, nothing can convince me otherwise.

I had decided that I would never vote again. I didn’t like the president who sold my country out. I knew he was a liar. I knew he had great disdain for America as did his wife. I quit watching tv because I couldn’t stand his voice nor what he said…..then, it happened.

June 16, 2015…NYC, the elevator ride of Donald J. Trump with his charming, beautiful, wife, Melania. He talked, he announced his candidacy for President of the United States and I passionately knew he was truthful, loved our country, and had a heart for Americans and he was a presidential candidate I could passionately support.

I had just retired and I had time to scour the internet for any articles I could find on Donald J. Trump. Everything. I honed in on several sites that were positive about him. I wasn’t buying into any of the lies. I knew they were lies. I started whittling my sources down, one by one. It wasn’t even intentional.

In short order, the other sites fell by the wayside. There was only one site I wanted to read — The Conservative Treehouse. There were many Christians on it, it had a prayer thread, people openly shared their faith, but the main reason was that the articles were truthful. I didn’t want to be lied to anymore. I wanted substantiated truth, which Sundance presented in every post. The articles had supporting, back-up evidence, which appealed to me since my profession was legal. I wanted to verify for myself that what was written wasn’t just some glorified opinion, but truth about all that was occurring in the 2015/2016 race. Additionally, I gravitate towards continuing to learn new things. Boy, did Sundance give me a lot to learn. I’ve posted several times CTH was like being in graduate school. It sure took a while for me to grasp MAGAeconomics!

In addition to the articles, I learned so much was the comment section. I read every single comment and learned so much from my fellow Treepers.

As 2015 rolled by and then 2016 until the election, The Conservative Treehouse was a home where I fit in while taking refuge from the Dem-authored world of hate towards Trump supports.

I loved candidate Trump and was thrilled to share that passion through reading Sundance’s articles and the wonderful Treepers’ comments as we all rode the train up to November 8, 2016 and beyond up to this day. It’s been bumpy at times. President Trump has endured a lot and so have I and all of us here as we clung to our belief in him and encouraged each other along the way.

I love President Trump and Sundance, Ad Rem, and all at The Conservative Treehouse. I am grateful to everyone here. Sometimes I have fiercely tackled anyone who said disparaging remarks about Sundance or My President because like him I am a loyal person and defend them and my faith.

That’s why I love the Conservative Treehouse. I am allowed to do that here.

God bless everyone, particularly My President and the First Lady. They are why I found The Conservative Treehouse.

Style-wise: I’d go out with a Mic drop – seems like you.

I can’t remember how exactly I found you, but I heard a voice that was willing to say things in a way that hasn’t been said before.

And then the community of comments.

You’ve been picking at threads that are seventy years old.

I thank you, most humbly, for what you do and provide.

Psalm 91:1
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Honestly, honesty is why I have stayed here. There is more then enough BS in this world and I have enough sense to say no more. Lets keep moving forward, break throughs are happening every day.

How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….

I first discovered this refuge when Trayvon Martin blew up in national news. There was so much clarity within the flow of information provided via crowdsourcing: it was as if someone turned the lights on in a long dark room. It was the beginning of the end for the sourcing of information exclusively from big media outlets. Suddenly, they were no longer relative. The news happens instantaneously in today’s world… and finally, a wellspring of raw source information was exposed and made available for the hungry inquiring mind seeking the raw truth of the stories that matter.

What was it that brought you here?…

Trayvon Martin news updates initially brought me here. Continued topical shares of relevant information has made revisits to The Treehouse a quick shortcut to the real news of the day.

And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value?

This forum and associated blogging has proved itself a worthy source of raw truth in times of tumult and misinformation. In over 10 years of visiting this forum, I have yet to read any falsely resourced or referenced publicly available information. Against what other source of information can anyone make that claim? The service this site’s content and administrators provides is priceless in the preservation of our freedoms, and this Republic, under which we are allowed to exist by the Author of our Creation.

My foray into CTH was via a mention by someone at American Thinker in mid 2016. At the time I was reading on American Thinker, Gateway Pundit, Drudge, Breitbart and one other I can’t recall now. Soon after I dropped Drudge but still read on the other sites some. But CTH is a place I end up a number of times a day…I don’t work so have time on my hands. Been helpful getting the links to articles via email since I joined WordPress some months back so I could comment. I rarely do comment though, mostly read and share your content with friends and family members.

Prior to 2016, I was a political dropout. Dropped out in 1985. I became so disillusioned with the same old thing, the two candidate race between two approved losers. I felt what America needed was an outsider, not a career politician running as president. I doubted Trump would make it with the world against him, but was hopeful. I actually thought Ben Carson would be the candidate. When Trump won the nomination of the republican party, I perked up and started paying attention again. He was who I was looking for. Thats when I started reading on line whatever I could find that was believable.

I stay due to the content, I like to stay current with what’s going on in DC and around the states. I’ve never found any reason to doubt what I read here, it seems well researched. I read lots of the comments in the articles, even have my favorite commenters. I’ll keep those to myself.

Keep up the great work Sundance, I’m here for the long haul.

Zimmerman trial brought me here, summer 2012

I had just retired and had time to watch some live trial coverage on CNN. They had a panel stacked with Trayvon family and like minded legal “experts” – the ongoing narrative was “he was hunted down and shot like an animal.”

But on the same CNN trial coverage, I heard the neighbor witness in the apartment complex describing “the taller guy on top of the other and raining down blows martial-arts style”.

I said to myself “Well, wait a minute – this sounds like a stock self-defense case, a justifiable shooting”. Sure enough, that’s exactly what the jury ruled.

So I learned that the mainstream media are lying to me … intentionally … by stacking that discussion panel as well as the many other commentators they brought on. And the constant use of the 12-yr-old Trayvon photo and never the gold-toothed thug flashing guns and cash photos.

Reading the internets at the same time I came across mention of the Treehouse and a link. I started reading Treehouse coverage of the trial and the backstory to the case, the research about dishonest prosecutors, fraudulent witness “Deedee” Jenteal, etc.

Been here 8 years since.

I stuck around because of the inherent truth in reporting I discovered here.

This coincided with my abandonment of mainstream media as wholly untrustable. A conservative was born – without even having to get mugged over the weekend.

I paid attention when Sundance covered now-President Trump early on in his candidacy. Trusting Sundance’s judgement as proven sound, I got on the Trump Train early, along with others here.

I’ve also valued the various articles on the soundness of conservative beliefs vs the rushing-toward-communism of the ‘liberals’/’Left’.
