We have a rather unique situation here… The digital U-Haul is loaded after our eviction from WordPress/Automattic for violations of community ‘wrong think’ and questioning narratives against the interests of Big Tech. After a decade on the platform we are sweeping up the porch and saying farewell to the WordPress community.
The CTH family is disappointed at the business position of Automattic, but we are also excited about the new home we have created. CTH 2.0 is going to be awesome, liberating and even better. We are so blessed and fortunate beyond my wildest imaginings.
Right now we are patching the holes in the walls and running the vacuum while our long-time friends stop by to express their anger about our eviction. Simultaneously, those who moved away to the big city are coming back to visit and express their support.
I cannot go into details, mostly because I haven’t yet decided whether to accept a proposal for a grand exit – or stick to our customary & understated simple wave farewell, but the big city folks want to use this eviction as a warning of sorts.
Apparently, the youthful rebellious spirit within those who sold-out to mega-media conglomerates and bright lights has been triggered. A spirit we at CTH retain.
Out there in the land of the MSM right now there is a group of ‘journalists’ ideologically reminiscing for a time when the counter-culture was fighting for the truth; damn the consequences and without care for wounded feelings, delicate sensibilities or financial livelihoods. They reflect on a spirit we have retained and protected within our CTH community. A spirit we will never stop safe-guarding from enticement and compromise.
We are rag-tag misfits, we are proud of it, and -if needed- we clean up well.
We are a crew more comfy eating pizza from box on a tailgate than trying to fit in with a new media outlook of highfalutin’ big technocrats. We are, quite simply, the rebel alliance.
All of that said, a question for each of you would be:
How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….
What was it that brought you here?…
And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value?
A notable disclaimer. Your answer(s) may end up in a very large spotlight; so think about whether you are comfy with that before you share anything. Your comment responses are always private, but also likely to be read by some very influential big city types.
An update on CTH 2.0 will soon follow. But for now, as we sit on the porch and reminisce about a decade of discussion on this platform, there are a bunch of folks who want to know why CTH matters to you.
If you feel like sharing your answer, write it in the comments.
Every response is entirely OK.
I have never known a better group of cyber-friends than this community. I have never known a larger and deeper group of experience than exists right here. I have never known a better team at assembling details, granular and specific details that outline the truth, than this crew. For that, I am blessed and incredibly thankful… Especially today.
So if you’re comfy, what brought you here?
Love to all,
Sundance
2016 this website opened my eyes to the fake polls. I already knew about fake news. But fake polls – wow.
I started reading this blog daily because of your coverage of the Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman case. You opened my eyes to Obama being a fraud and the dishonesty of the big corporate media. I haven’t left your blog since. Thanks for your work.
Michael, if you were writing a response for me, it would be exactly the same. The Trayvon debacle opened my eyes to so many things. The Treehouse was the only place on the internet that had a rational, methodical, and evidence-based discussion of that case.
I found the Treehouse from someone who commented on Breitbart during the run-up to the 2016 election. I learned about the splitter strategy and wondered – why hasn’t anyone else figured this out. Sundance was totally correct about this and so many other things. He enlightened us about the uniparty. We all knew that something was rotten in Denmark but couldn’t quite articulate it – Sundance did. We find TRUTH at the Treehouse and superb analysis. Sundance is fearless in telling us this truth – he doesn’t hold back for fear of losing status, viewers, anything. I also like the spiritual tone found here. I am a Christian and it is comforting to know that Sundance is too, along with many other Treepers. The comments are educated, profound and miles above most other sites in knowledge and wisdom – and funny too! Long live the Treehouse – we will need this place in the coming years for the battle ahead.
I saw a reference or two to this place called the Conservative Treehouse buried within some remarks in, I believe, a WSJ comment or two. Someone was telling of info to be read there. So, I found it, read an article or two, saw the comments, and thought, “wow. And, I thought the WSJ was where it was it for reader competency.”
The time was prior to the 2016 election, probably mid-year perhaps, and the community was rather small and saturated with knowledge, common sense, and courtesy. I loved it. I stayed. After the election, I cancelled the WSJ, because it was clear that the WSJ Op-Ed–which was 80% of the reason for my subscription–was no match for this guy called Sundance….and because, quite frankly, the WSJ folks were aligned opposite reality, regardless of their competency.
It’s been a fast four years, and I’ve been witness to the marvel of an online Thomas Paine. To this day, it is amazing how I can talk casually with hyper-informed people who know a lot but do not know material truths or have a pulse on ground currents that the CTH routinely taps into.
CTH has been phenomenal. Combined with Trump, the combo has managed to salvage the USA.
I have no idea how I got here. Folliwed a link I think and found a home.
My experience with WSJ is the same as evergreen’s. Cancelled after 25 years because op-ed was globalist not Americanist…though I didn’t know at the time that’s what I was sensing.
Sundance put words to that thought, hence I took a branch and built a nest.
I have learned so much. So much that was murky became clear. Why did we keep electing people as Republicans and nothing they campaigned on never got done? Why did Republican presidents nominate liberals to the SCOTUS? Why did the Bushes love the Clintons and hate Trump? Sundance showed me the answers.. Because they were all part of a globalist Uniparty! We were being scammed.
I like the absence of trolls, the politeness of the commenters, the lack of vulgarity. My only concern is that dissent sometimes is not tolerated . I got kicked off Lucianne years ago for criticizing W for never standing up for his people if the press got after them. After observing Jonah Goldberv these past four years, it finally makes sense. I made sense so uniparty didn’t like that.
I hope I am able to find Treehiuse 2.0. Am old and not that computer facile
You’ll find it! Same address. We’ll all be there!
I came across an article tactfully and unpretentiously
written by a maverick like souled patriot named Sundance! Where and how I don’t recall!
What’s filled my inbox ever since is the intellectual refuge CTH offers! Ready for 2.0!
I don;t really remember how I got here.
I started out lurking for a while before posting I found the content
to be very indepth and detailed and easy to understand.
I stick around because this place is informative with very diverse
opinions and there are many viewpoints on the same subject matter.
People offering ideas and advice that is helpful and it is a friendly
on line space. I learn alot and do so without the bias and the propoganda
of the main stream media.
I’m here because it can get very lonely out there in the world of liberal friends. Both computer science and fandom tend to be predominately liberal, but I’ve been a conservative Republican since 1952 and I need to sometimes be among people who share many of my beliefs. Not all. Just many. I love Trump with every fiber of my being. That doesn’t go over with most of my friends out there. But here I have your refuge, and can rest on a branch and be comforted by the reassuring chirping of a flock of like-minded people. And when my enthusiasm manifests in making a Trump music video, there are people to watch and jump up and down with me and encourage me to keep doing it. The names within the flock become familiar over the years, and I get a warm feeling just seeing them appear to enrich my understanding and sooth my heart. You, and they, have my undying gratitude.
Mary, it is very nice of you to care for and look out for your liberal friends. They will never see what you see, even if it a truck, figuratively speaking, ready to run them over.
I actually ran across an online comment where someone made a point that I was a conservative, but seemed like a nice person anyway. So there can be SOME interaction between the disparate points of view. My liberal friends have been calling to reassure me that we can still be friends, but I think that’s because they really think Biden won and are trying to reach out to comfort me. But if Trump pulls this out, not so sure they’ll feel the same way.
Mary, you are blessed to see a bigger picture than your liberal friends. They only see and respond to a very small slice of what is occurring. It isn’t their fault. It is the intuition they were born with that they were unable to develop as they matured.
Very nice to meet you Mary. Seems as though you’ve had a very interesting life/career. I had no idea what “fandom” was. ?
I adore meeting people, so it’s lovely to meet you, too. Life has, indeed, been joyful. Though I was fired from my dream job at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago. I was in a Democratic patronage job while acting as a Republican election judge. They caught me the day after the election. Chicago efficiency! Long, loud sigh.
My field was computer language design, but I talked my way into multimedia production and had movie scripts repped in Hollywood. The team I was on came in 2nd in the design of the DoD common language, Ada. Music videos are my obsessive avocation. I’ve made over 850 of them now.
Fandom is much like being a conservative in terms of forming a family and being an obsession. Each conservative site forms its own family. There’s the normal family bickering, but there’s also deep love and concern for one another. Fandom is like that, too. Back when I was active in Star Trek, I knew I could travel anywhere in the country and telephone a fellow fan in the town and receive an invitation to meet. We conservatives love Trump. Fans will love an actor or a character. I was a Spock fan. I’m currently a Song Joong Ki fan as I’m now into Chinese and Korean dramas. 14 going on 12.
Star Trek – Born Again Trek – Julia Ecklar
I did some reading about you looking into the fandom thing. Fascinating stuff. Glad you’re here and you are brave to be a “Trumpster” in your world. Stay strong. ???
The treehouse is where I always find truth. Found myself here in early 2016 and check daily for the posts and all the important information. This may be copied from some other past respected news outlet – but CTH is where all the news that’s fit to print appears. A very deep and emotional thank you to Sundance and all you misfits out there. Inspiration abounds from y’all. Thanks again and I will follow wherever you go.
Saw a link from someplace, found an astute investigator for truth who has never wavered from the search and exposure thereof wherever the chops may fall.
Combined with likeminded souls who bring so much to the table with their unique take and experience and support of assertions with links and documents makes this place home for me, first viewed and last viewed each day.
(And people don’t mind run on sentences, misspellings poor grammar syntax and my and others foibles ?…. and the humor!)
For my two cents Sundance, I’d say let the big city dudes take a swing at WordSuPress and release the KRACKEN on em’.
We are at WAR as even PDJT has tweeted. All in or all over. No backing down to tyrants. They will not relent unless stopped. Remember they will use whatever means possible.
All in or all over!
Hard to remember, been a number of years. But I think I read a reference about CTH in a comment on Gateway Pundit and liked your post on the link I clicked on. Stayed because most of your blogs have a level of analysis/detail I don’t see anywhere else. Challenges me and causes me to think and look deeper.
Don’t comment often but read everyday–
Simple question.
Simple answer.
Search for reliable infomation in a sea of disinformation, someone somewhere in a comment suggested CTH (2015). Never heard of it, so I looked. Discovered informative writing on many current topics with Truth as the target. Coupled with comments from many offering similar insight and focus, I was hooked.
Indeed, most reliable website I’ve found.
Thank you.
I’m a world away from where CTH is located – to give you some idea, I live in a desert in a very remote area, where at 9.30am we are just hitting 37 degrees Celsius or 98.6F in your language..I’m not sure how I found you, but I thank God everyday that I did.
I was a subscriber to Rupert’s Australian flagship newspaper (The Australian) and the more I read their commentary & dismissive reactions to ‘conservative views’ I started searching & found this place.
Why have I stayed? The quality & thoughtfulness of not only of SD’s posts & analysis, but also the majority of commenters. Whilst I may not agree with everything that is written / posted, the diversity of views is a major positive in my humble opinion. The sense of community is quite unique, but more important, is the overwhelming believe in country, fairness and faith that shines from CTH. The poster’s (especially Grandma Covfefe) have reminded me of the power of prayer and have led me back to what is important in life.
I thank you most sincerely for your space, and will follow you to the new site – whatever form that takes.
Dear Sundance,
I’m almost embarrassed (more like humbled) that you would feel the need to respectfully request my/our viewpoints. Your candor, Sir, is what has kept me here for lo’, these many years.
I “found” my branch through comment threads on Breitbart, that spoke of you with reverence and respect. I reluctantly “left” BB, as a result of disqus overlords seeing less and less humor in my “parody” profile that I had set up for their forums. One day? Poof! I was gone! As it is said, “One door closes, another one opens”. I was/am truly Blessed to have been “directed” here to CTH.
While I rarely have anything “technical” to contribute, I have had rare occasion to take a sense of pride, in maybe passing along anything that “has worked for me”, that seems to be of value, or merit to any of my Fellow “Treepers”. Your providing a community for the open, honest, and genuine discussion and fellowship that I have experienced here, has meant more to me than I can express.
I almost hesitate to “cheapen” the sentiment of this thread by saying that I for one, would gladly pay a fee to continue my association with such a fine Band of Brothers and Sisters. And if that helps in your future choices, it is indeed my pleasure and honor to have an opportunity to give back, with as much as I have drawn from all of you wonderful people.
God Bless You All,
Strength’N’Honor,

I had a family member who had a featured article on here many years ago. The link was sent out in a family email. I read the article (it was non-political) and checked out some of the other analysis. It resonated (much like Trump, but before Trump) with many things I’d thought deep down but hadn’t quite put into words.
It’s more or less a free exchange of ideas in the comment section. It’s not commercial, it’s not corporate. It’s a different perspective which aligns with reality rather than the typical first-glance takes you can get anywhere else, be they right-leaning or left-leaning. I can get lied to anywhere. I come here to not get lied to.
About 90% of media, commentary and “news” is: collecting data, promoting a corporate agenda, promoting a political agenda, gaslighting, shaping a narrative, “click-bait”, etc. This site is discussion, exploration, and honest analysis. I don’t do “news” anymore, local or national, and I haven’t in a long time. I know what I see – this site captures what I see, and it doesn’t align with what we’re all being told by those who dominate the industry.
My wife told me about the site in the 2015/2016 time frame. Not sure what the specific issue was, but I was pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful, informed and well written analysis provided by Sundance. I found it the site to go to for accurate and detailed explanation of the issues and was so pleasantly surprised that the comments by the members for the most part mirrored the tone set by Sundance. I was really turned off by other sites and the mud wrestling degeneracy of the commenters. The members on this site are the greatest — next best thing to family!
How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….I stumbled across the work that you were doing for the defense of George Zimmermann in the Trayvon Martin case. The information you uncovered was excellent and so admirable…interesting, informative reading, day after day after day!
What was it that brought you here?…Your search for the truth and the support of your search by nearly every single person onboard….
And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value? I found myself on the on the good side of nearly every subject you tackled and counted on your research and information you presented to inform myself to present interesting ideas to so many others…..I looked at Conservative Treehouse as the “sunshine and water” which helped strengthen my roots in conservative activism….which I find is needed now more than ever. Thanks, Sundance and all who share their ideas and support you here
Greetings from Midland, Michigan! I grew up in Wheaton, Illinois so I’m solid midwest. I found CTH thru social media and I read everyday on email. I appreciate like minded information and news. Thanks for all you do and good luck!
In November of 2016, I read an article in the Washington Post claiming that Ash Carter and James Clapper had recommended to President Obama that NSA director Michael Rogers be fired. In between the public trashing of Rogers, a snippet stood out: “In a move apparently unprecedented for a military officer, Rogers, without notifying superiors, traveled to New York to meet with Trump on Thursday at Trump Tower.”
That piqued my interest and marked the start of my personal research project into the Obama administration’s surveillance program of U.S. citizens, most notably President-elect Trump. During the course of my research I came upon The Conservative Treehouse. I bookmarked it and have been coming back ever since.
I come back for the stories the mainstream media has no interest in covering or pursuing—for the building of evidence and connecting of dots. I appreciate both the primary posts and the comments from intelligent, kind, and patriotic people. I work in a liberal industry where my career advancement and relationships with coworkers would be harmed if my political leanings were known. (Indeed, I do not donate to political causes because of the tracking of employer and occupation details.) At the Treehouse, which truly is a refuge, I can express my thoughts without denunciation.
I’ll speak for a second reader who shares roubaix67’s difficulty—jobs in certain industries just do not allow for actual freedom of expression by employees, who are watched and tracked.
My second reader is a smart, clear-thinking patriot who enjoys TCTH immensely for the deep-diving investigations, the unwavering Trump support, and Sundance’s uniquely bright insights: the many ‘A-ha!’ moments keep him coming back for more.
roubaix67,
Speaking of Freedom of Expression, ironically, I work/ed (more so, “pre-virus”) in the entertainment industry. Somewhat unsurprising how truly intolerant a lot of my union brothers and sisters were/are. I consider it a challenge to try to shake people like us “out of the woodpile”. Sometimes a seemingly innocuous reference to “Our Brave Men and Women of the Military” can possibly at least flush out a veteran. IMHO, at that point, the odds are in your favor.
Keep the Faith,
God Bless,
Happy Thanksgiving,
skipper
Thanks, skipper! I do keep my ears tuned for potential allies. And, luckily, I can talk politics with my parents–including my veteran Dad–and two cousins. I recommended The Treehouse to my parents, and my Dad is a regular reader.
Please thank the Veterans in your orbit, for us, yes? And good for you. Keep Up the Good Fight, roubaix67, I think it gets more and more “mission critical” by the day/hour/minute…
Strength’N’Honor,

I am constantly searching for the Truth. I came to the Treehouse in February 2018, when you ran the story on Robert Runcie’s program to “handle” disciplinary action that contributed to the Parkland School tragedy. CTH was the sole truth teller. Since then, I have visited the site several times a day. The CTH community is full of patriots, Christians, and great American Citizens. I am at home here.
First: Sundance, I think broom clean is the standard.
As to how I got here, I came across a number of sites at the same time as my dissatisfaction with Drudge grew.
I believe my first post regarded the verbatim testimony of Robert Brennan that was my first sense that something less than koshet went down and that he admitted to. I remember the eagerness of spending the time transcribing what no one wanted to report or discuss. Because I thought, finally, a place existed where contributors thought more of others than themselves! Where the whole is much larger than the sum of the parts.
I believe it was in 2017, years down the road from your creation.
A debt that can not be repaid exists here.
Came her about 5 years ago probably seeing you posted on another website, haven’t left since! Love your honest in depth analysis of our country plight.
Come here minimum 3 times a day looking for truth , justice and the american dream. Turned on sooo many friends to your website
I’ll be with wherever & whatever it may be
Warmest regards
Johnny*r
What brought you here? Well very clearly it was December 2014. – HEADLINE – Mississippi Burning – The Murder of Jessica Lane Chambers.
One of the secrets of life is to keep our intellectual curiosity acute. You Sir have demonstrated in your pursuit NOT to accept someone else’s definition of your life but rather Define It Yourself!!
Oh yea and the Thanksgiving Recipe Threads!!! God Bless You My Brother!!!
When I first found the tree house…every where else was saying NO..it can not be done Trump can not win……here folks were saying yes he can do it….
Here i found folks seeking truth and brave enuff to make a stand……so I stayed and add what I can.
I’ve been a Q reader since Feb 2018. Within the Q Patriot-Sphere we are always seeking more information to expand on the breadcrumbs Q drops, and I was led to CTH by other Q readers citing CTH articles as more in-depth explanations of what Q hints at. I quickly realized CTH is Q agnostic but also appreciated that here was a news / analysis source that was putting together a complex puzzle for its readers that does not rely on insider information or access to classified data. So I continued to read and build up my critical thinking and pattern recognition skills. I’m sticking around because there just aren’t that many publicly available sources of frank and honest analysis like CTH anymore. The articles and editorials make me think, and I rather enjoy thinking for myself, contrary to the MSM and DC Swamp propaganda narrative.
Where and what is Q? And what did you think of Trump’s refusal to disavow you and sticking up for the fact that you oppose pedophiles?
–I liked it because I find Q people’s posts to seem like sincere people regardless. Biden sticks up for Antifa/BLM terrorists but Trump is supposed to disavow supporters who oppose Dem crimes against humanity. I’m glad he doesn’t bow to crooked media’s rules.
I really have no idea where and what is Q. What I do know is he/she is not some kid posting random stuff in a basement somewhere just for lolz. I’m retired military and spent much of that time working intel, ops planning, and information ops. I’ve also held some very elevated clearances. When you work in those fields (as in any) you develop slang, lingo, and speech patterns that are recognizable to others with the same/similar background. They are very hard to fake. Just based on what Q has posted, I identify him as a current or retired military intelligence analyst with extremely elevated access to national security information. I believe in live and let live, and by extension speak and let speak, and think and let think. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether “Q is real”, but I don’t think people can honestly make that decision without reading for themselves what has been posted, and we’re going on 3 years worth of posts for people to read. When reading the Q posts, the key thing to keep in mind is that they are not in chronological order, and while some things Q has posted have come to pass, most have not. I have also considered Q may be a PSYOP designed to assure some of Trump’s more anxious base that things are being worked on – to discourage vigilantism and independent militias from taking things into their own hands and making a true mess of things. As for Trump’s refusal to neither acknowledge nor disavow Q when he was asked the question, his response is what I expected. Trump is all about timing and I think he will make a declaration when he thinks the time is right, not when his adversaries try to put him on the spot. I do know this. There have been numerous documented Q proofs that indicate close coordination and association between Q and POTUS. Everything from the synchronized timing of Q drops and POTUS tweets; to changing the transponder of AF-1 to Q+ during certain flights; to pictures from aboard AF-1 (I’ve been on that platform myself); to the air-Q’s Trump frequently draws during his rallies; to Trump inserting unusual words in his tweets and speeches that are identical to requests made by Q readers on the 8kun boards; plus other “proofs” that can be found within the Q posts. One or two of these things might be chalked up to coincidence. But all of them? Mathematically impossible. As I stated in my original post, I came to CTH as a result of studying Q. Both sources complement and supplement each other, and I’m always thirsty for information.
I came to your sight for your honesty and patriotism. Your insight about all that has happened during the Trump campaign and election has usually been spot on. I also appreciate your positive attitude when we were all down and worried what would happen next. But you were always honest even when it was something we really didn’t want to hear.
I found myself here one day because I’m regular reader of Steve Sailer’s blog. I was reading a Sailer post on the Trayvon Martin incident, and a commenter said something akin to, “If you’d like to read some good investigative work on this, go here.” and he posted a link to the Treehouse. I clicked that link and have been hooked ever since.
I was thrilled with the quality of investigative work done on that whole episode. Best that could be found.
Thanks, Sundance, and thank to all of you who make this blog what it is.
I found myself attracted to the idea to Dig Deep. Sundance has a way of explanation that is easy to process and understand.
I was attracted to CTH due to thorough understanding of issues not found anywhere else.
I am sticking around because I like what is presented and how. Keep up the good work.
I stumbled upon the treehouse when the Jessica Chambers story was front page news. The depth of research and honesty in reporting news beyond the pale of the MSM was so refreshing for even such a horrible story as the Chambers tragedy. I have been here ever since, and this has long been my #1 go-to site for news and commentary. Honestly, a person could read the articles and commentary on CTH every day and be more informed than the average American who watches any of the news channels, including Fox. I have no idea who Sundance is, but I would love to shake his hand one day and say thanks for providing us with the greatest news site on the internet.
Since I was 10 years old, I’ve had a driving need to know what is going on. I’m serious. So searching around the internet, it was only natural that I ended up at the Treehouse. It was obvious right off that here was where I would find the most, and the most accurate information on what was really happening on the world stage. Besides, you were pro-Trump, who had me at “I am officially running…”. Sundance, et al, you are a treasure.
Found the Treehouse while searching for something – LONG before Donald J. announced his running.
Hid in the branches most of the time; still do.
I don’t consider myself a dummy, but great day in the morning – through your investigations, discovered I was sorrowfully ignorant of too much.
This is my FIRST read of the day; appreciate the comments as well.
I wish I could donate more. Remember the email received for donation – I went WOW! with the response.
The Treehouse is a source of information/truth, & hope & light.
But the Treehouse is not just information – it is family. The Lord’s Prayer is a daily post; there’s Caturday; there’s giggles & grins … there is the ever burning candle for those requesting prayer.
Lastly – Sundance is a person of action. Remembering when he went to DC. While we are comfortable in our chairs reading, though – I do believe if Sundance called a “meeting”, we’d come (if we could).
Can’t remember when I arrived. Lurked for a year or two, now post occasionally. I enjoy your analysis and the discussion that follows. What I found truly unique was the almost immediate linking to primary data. To see the actual PFF’s of court filings, FBI/DOJ paperwork etc… Nowhere else can you find the citations much less the original documents. Some of the members posts as well are full of direct insights and experiences one can only get by being/having been directly involved. I live in S. IL and have no other connections to such information.
A friend of mine linked me to your site a few years ago. I have checked in almost every day since. One of the best articles I read was “The Myth of Global Markets, and I still keep it on my desktop and re-read or share it with people it from time to time. All of your detailed analysis about the inner workings of our rigged system have kept me here. You cannot get this level of detail or analysis anywhere else. This website is a true gem. Well done Sundance and Co.! Your work is irreplaceable and, in my opinion, the foundation of information for many news journalists that won’t or can’t do the work themselves.
Frankly, I can’t remember how I ended up here. ?
One thing that was obvious about 4 years or so when I joined up here was the comment section was more intelligent than most other sites. In some ways CTH has become a victim of its own success (go away Breitbart commentors!), as some seem to want to use this platform as their own outlet. Oh well, not my board!
But CTH is a serious website. No “Can you believe what Cher just said? ?) nonsense. It’s a site you can refer a left of center friend to and not worry about gaffs or sensationalism like a Gateway Pundit can cause.
I look at us as more like the Riders of Rohan in the LOTR going about slaying the Orcs of our day in an ongoing cyber battle. ?
This is my sanity prison and has been since the machinations behind the 2016 election. I first saw the name reading up on Trayvon Martin.
My immediate family’s motto (quoting Steely Dan “Barrytown”):
“Don’t believe I’m taking in by websites that I’ve heard
I just watch the MSM and swear by every word.”
The ridicule I take for even daring to believe in anything for Trump has to truly be heard to be believed. I don’t believe it myself in some cases.
My sarcasm and commentary here are outlets of the immense frustration to an alleviation of thoughts to hit my head against a wall in trying to reason with those who swear by the MSM.
Happy Thankfulness Day for this site.
I found myself a member of the CTH community shortly after the election of President Trump.I was a long time lurker/reader and the finally registered for CTH updates.
What brought me here? I’ve always been a rebelette; seeking answers to questions; ask why? Demanding explanations to printed “words.” One day I heard someone on the radio comment: “Why would people waste time listening to a bunch of so-called reporters seated around a round-table espousing”their” so-called view-points.”
Ever since then I promised myself to research, read, listen and, more importantly, us critical thinking skills. I began to search the Web for independent news sites and that’s when I found CTH. I have eliminated many of those sites but continued to read CTH.
I stuck with CTH not only because of Sundance’s fantastic and exceptional reporting/editing skills but for the many intelligent Treeper posts. CTH is y first go-to every day and my final go-to prior to turning in at night. I have learned so much from the many of Sundances in-depth posts, and the informative, friendly posts by Treepers.
Looking forward to CTH 2.0. The best is yet to come.
A reference from American Thinker brought me here. Sincerity of Sundance and Treepers kept me here.
I discovered CTH in the summer of 2015 just as Trump was beginning his candidacy.
The daily analysis was the best I’ve ever read. The splitter strategy was both prescience and accurate. I was hooked. Diamond and Silk were highlighted one day in 2015 with the view they hit a nerve. Look where they are today. The analysis of the deep state Russian collusion attack was incredible. It took years before the MSM even acknowledged the fraud. I check in every day without fail. Thank you for keeping the torch lit, one if by land two is by sea.
You are the best!

I come to the CTH for thoughtful analysis of issues that impact my future and present. It’s not just a screaming headline and a rant here but a complete thought with background and supporting information. Links to previous posts so that everything is weavesd into a more complex and complete picture of where we are and how we’ve gotten here. It’s unfortunate that many of my friends lack the intellectual curiosity to regularly read the CTH but I do and try to convey the somewhat complex and large amount of information to them.
It’s sad that for so many the character limit of Twitter is the limit of their comprehension and mainstream media is written for them not people like myself who come to the CTH for much more depth.
I also appreciate that by giving complex analysis of current events and prognosticating the future from your analysis the CTH will sometimes be wrong. This in now way diminishes my confidence that the CTH is giving the best and most honest analysis available. Hindsight is 20/20 not foresight. Thank you for the great work you do !
I came in February 2016, the primary voting had just started and Ted Cruz was stealing Iowa from Ben Carson. There was no one in talk radio or on TV giving a straight answer on what was happening. Not Rush, Hannity or anyone. All were making word salads to carry the water for Cruz and it was clear to all of us that he was lying. Mark Levin at the time was particularly insincere. I tried to dig up his motives and came upon a very insightful post from Sundance. I scoured his older posts and finally understood the Uniparty. The lightbulb went on and so many things once obscured now make sense.
Also, the summer of 2016 was particularly exciting as so many Treefolk shared and compared their findings from the Wikileaks emails. I never experienced an online community like that and felt strength that we had to discover truth as a unified group. That has obviously continued. Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you Sundance.
The Conservative Treehouse represents Andrew Breitbart’s Vision of an independent Conservative Digital Media while providing insightful investigative brilliance.
Finding The Conservative Treehouse soon after 45 and Melania came down that escalator has been a true blessing. No matter the Fake News and the incessant lies of RINOs and Nevertrumpers, there were always branches of the Treehouse that provided unabashed support for 45 and his America First vision.
I stay because SD and his Team of Patriots share facts and like 45, they are 24-7/365.25 Machines! The great comments help form insight and better our understanding daily. Now with our Republic in the balance, your fortitude, ingenuity, and continued leadership inspires us while we pray for 45 wife family friends and our Nation.
TRUTH and FREEDOM. That is what brought me here what keeps me coming back. Hear that, Twitter and Facebook? CTH not only speaks the truth, but this site and its community members respect and honor our freedoms— those very freedoms the that Dorsey and Zuckerberg types want to tear down and shred. But we will not be silenced, and we will not go away. Too many of our ancestors defended our freedoms and fought for the right for us to express ourselves without being censored. We are wide awake and know the inherent evil that surrounds and is part of the fiber of our mainstream media and social media. As we begin the second Trump term on January 20, 2021, you damn well should know that we will still be here, stronger than ever— speaking the truth and defending our freedoms like never before.
Thank you for asking.
When a somewhat conservative blog with the initials H.A. had a major blowup with their once loyal readership, I started looking for a new home. Of the places I looked, I found the sober intellectual approach and the depth of original research here to be very refreshing.
I’ve never felt entirely comfortable posting because I don’t want to disrupt the flow of conversation with the snark and ‘me too’ type of responses that pollute other locales, but I will take this opportunity to say thanks and to voice my full throated approval.
How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….
I was introduced by a friend.
What was it that brought you here?…
We are always searching for sources of information that we trust. The rich comments on this site always provide a few nuggets. If I can lock down one good idea by sorting through 50 posts, I am happy. The ratio is certainly not that good from most other sources,
And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value?
That question is more difficult. But, this group is very interesting with many years of well-thought-out ideas. I do review other sides, but I always come back here.
By the way, I watch almost no TV. I don’t need information that is filtered by some unqualified bratty communications major. That is an insult to intelligence.. Seldom am I insulted on this site.
Have been a steadfast reader since July 19′, better late than never. The truths exposed by Sundance and the background, parallel points by many outstanding Treepers have me enthusiastically reading every day. An active duty AF vet. Found CTH through posts on a prominent lever action forum of like-minded pragmatic patriots from many different walks. My work directly supports our farmers and ranchers in “west Dakota”, I share knowledge and awareness of this great place with as many people as I can, we’re already pretty red up here.
A friend posted a link to another conservative site on my messenger, and there was a credit given to “The Conservative Treehouse” I started following along. Always impressed with the detail and the analysis and the inclusion of references to support the analysis. I feel like a kindred spirit. I am just now getting to where I try and read through the comments and am appreciating the site more. I am incensed that the MSM and even some of the allegedly conservative voices have buckled under. I will continue to follow, and will support any way I can.
I discovered CTH in the summer of 2015 just as Trump was beginning his candidacy.
The daily analysis was the best I’ve ever read. The splitter strategy was both prescience and accurate. I was hooked. Diamond and Silk were highlighted one day in 2015 with the view they hit a nerve. Look where they are today. The analysis of the deep state Russian collusion attack was incredible. It took years before the MSM even acknowledged the fraud. I check in every day without fail. Thank you for keeping the torch lit, one if by land two is by sea.
You are the best!

That picture of Mickey’s middle finger could be a simple parting wave to the Corporate Automattic Tyrants.
I stumbled onto here reading about the Big Ugly. Still hope to see the Zippo lit, maybe that really happened yesterday courtesy of Sidney Powell and assorted company of angels.
And may God keep this Nation, in its various forms, in His care as He has done for 400 years.
And for those who seek to destroy this Blessed land, well, may God bless their little dark hearts in ways He knows best.
Allow me to address the CTH survey thus:
1. How did you find yourself a member of the CTH community?….
I was searching for a like minded conservative website that would welcome my often crazy, obtuse ideas and allow me the freedom to explore my conservatism. I found myself defending the DC monuments against libtard anarchists in 2006 which grew into a natural affinity for the T.E.A. Party. Jenny Beth Martin spoke to my patriots soul and when I ran across Sundance I found my niche.
2. What was it that brought you here?…
My search for the Truth of the United States and the values of Her Founding Fathers. The one website I have relied on, even more than CTH (if I may be so bold) is the Patriot Post. Both websites give me the Patriotic innoculation against the lies of the Lame Stream Media, including FOX News.
3. And why did you stick around with this group through whatever endeavors you found of value?
The values that are imparted by Sundance and his distaff other, Managerie, are values of faith, family, community and nation which I too have held and cherished. Often I fall short of the expectations I have for myself, yet reading CTH and the Patriot Post inspire me to pick myself up and continue the struggle to ensure that I pass on to my children the Freedom promised by those who sacrificed there lives in the Battle for Liberty.
I found my way here from the MOTUS blog. A link posted, an interesting article I read and then I started reading the blog posts, one after the other. What I found was the most insightful and TRUE realm of exactly HOW I FEEL and WHAT I wanted to say but did not have the prose to do so.
I am proud to have a little branch here to watch from, I have to say that CTH is the most welcoming of any blog I have ever been part of.
I hope the new TreeHouse attracts many more birds of a feather … the roots are INDEED strong and deep
Thank you Sundance
Thank you Treepers
I love you all and may God continue to bless each and every one of you and May God Bless our President, His Family and AMERICA
A deep dive into the concept of “Uniparty” originally brought me here, and the refreshingly frank, insightful commentary of Sundance has kept me habitually returning. As compelling and on point as his dissection of the events of the day have been, the opportunity to ” hang with” the likes of Sarah Palin, Sydney Powell, Joe Dan Gorman and the multitude of witty, fearless fellow anonymous treepers has made this a must read locale. Countless times over the years , (through three handle changes, odious debt, Exfiltration of Wealth and my current nom de plume) I’ve seen a story break elsewhere and I’ve immediately thought: I wonder what Sundance’s take is….and I eagerly hit the site to see.
And lastly, I would point out that of all of the places one may go on the web to seek analysis, this place is most consistently honest, pulls no punches and gives no fear or favor.
Ironically, this is precisely why they hate us so much.
It was the concept of the “Uniparty” and other insights into the crooks from both sides we’re up against that brought me here as well.
–Much needed info was and is here
–Also why I supported the Tea Party and Trump, both reformers against what they’ve done to us.
–And right now I’m here for the “Rebel Alliance” against Vader’s Empire in an effort to save America and get beyond the brainwashing disinfo. psy ops Big Brother.
–A community of well informed active folks, on the side of God and country. What’s not to like?
In 2015, I was 31 and had never paid attention to politics at all but I knew I disliked Hilary Clinton. A LOT. One night, I was expressing my anger at my parents “What does it matter? She’s winning anyway!” It was my parents who told me, flat out, “That’s what they want you to think!”
So began my journey in educating myself and learning what I could. I began going to Breitbart since it was my mom’s go-to site for conservative news and just fully jumped down into the “rabbit hole” of reading and researching. In 2016, I did a little fist pump after pressing that button for President Trump, so excited to FINALLY be excited about a truly awesome candidate I could vote for.
I continued going to Breitbart but their constant bashing of Jared and Ivanka began getting on my nerves. Someone in the comments mentioned Sundance and this site, I cam here and I never left.
I don’t comment often. I feel like I can’t add much to the conversation and so many others have far more intelligent points to make but I’m here and I’ll never leave. Where Sundance goes, I follow.
