A follow-up to answer some of the popular questions about my experience with the corrupt administrative state, what I prefer to call the Fourth Branch of Government that operates behind the visible Potemkin Village.
♦Why did you wait a year to outline what took place? Common question. Lots of reasons, some obvious, some obscure and strategically granular. First, I know the people who are not in alignment with the principles of freedom also watch our discussion. If I am engaged with them in conflict, I do not want them to see my path. Second, I did not want them to shut down our conversation using ‘national security’ as the blanket often deployed. Third, I wanted to watch and assemble data quietly.
♦Why tell the story now? AG Garland just quantified publicly what the DOJ was doing. They just put details on the scope of their unconstitutional activity. Keep in mind, AG Garland is the Robert Mueller of the DOJ. Garland has no better understanding of what is going on inside that heavily siloed institution of Main Justice than Joe Biden understands what is going on inside his (White House). The true manager of the apparatus is Lisa Monaco, Obama’s eyes and ears into Main Justice operations. The Lawfare operatives ultimately report to Monaco, not chairman emeritus Garland.
♦Who benefits from the current information? If you take the time to fully absorb what is evident, traceable and provable to a demonstrable certainty, the representatives of any target who was/is also facing evidence gained by similar construct benefit. The source information is all there, free for the taking; following it leads to the same outcome – it is what it is. Whether it is beneficial or not is unique to the individual, or their rep. Beyond that, hopefully the general public will take pause and think about the ramifications. When you change the way you look at something, what you look at changes. The truth has no agenda.
♦What ramifications does this mean for the Twitter Files? Not sure. Essentially, the research team that Musk allowed to send requests and “key word searches” to the Twitter administrators/lawyers, who then transferred those search terms into the database requests and relayed the outcomes, already know the majority of this stuff. What the research team, Twitter Files journalists with approval to make requests, do not know is what terms to ask for. Really, that’s their biggest weakness – they don’t know what to look for.
Hopefully, this information now provides them material, at least stimulates their inquiry in another direction, and they can then turn their new knowledge into internal search requests. This outlook assumes the lawyers at Twitter doing the searches will allow the results to be turned over to the journalists. That’s a big assumption with all potential class-action litigation considered.
♦Did you have to defend yourself against this? Yes, and yes, it’s not cheap. There are only a handful of lawyers within driving distance to DC who would even contemplate taking on a client who is going against the system with unlimited resources. Those that do should be praised. Think about how much it would cost you to take a lawyer from outside the beltway to travel for a single overnight stay in DC to assist. This is not feasible for anyone. Thankfully, I had experience in knowing the system, and with guidance/advice could represent myself.
♦How did you know what approach to take? Well, when you understand the issue, and understand there was absolutely ZERO merit to the probable cause, it opens a door to turn the tables on the inquisitors. I studied the legal approach used by Eric Dubelier. I studied several of his cases and reviewed all of his court filings.
I consider Eric ‘Dubes’ Dubelier the Yoda of the light forces aligned against the evil empire of DC. If you are not familiar with Dubelier check out the Concord Mgt case against Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissman. Dubes wins his cases in the discovery phase, making the sunlight uncomfortable for the crooks.
The Concord case was/is an excellent resource in how to turn the tables. I found myself with many parallels. Weissmann/Mueller dropped the Concord case, saying Dubes was forcing them to reveal the source provenance of the claims against his client, and that was a national security risk. It was a little funny, but ultimately Dubes won in discovery.
Random stuff – Yes, Matt Taibbi is now aware of my encounter with this system. The subpoena is just as crazy to him as it sounds to all of us. I have said before, in my opinion Taibbi is a good guy who, almost identical to Tucker Carlson, changed the way he looked, and the thing he looked at changed. Both Tucker and Taibbi have a fulsome perspective on the scale of corruption and manipulation that is everywhere.
Hopefully this also explains why CTH 2.0 took the path of creating a proprietary commenting system when we relaunched. As you can tell, the platforms are monitored through back door arrangements with people, institutions and systems that ultimately may not have good intentions. There is no backdoor into CTH and the privacy of people who comment here is a top priority. This is a conversational place where we can all be comfortable, obviously grandma’s rules apply.
Bottom Line – We will win this battle and eventually this war. We are on the right side of every issue, and we cherish freedom. Our opposition is built upon a foundation of fraud and lies. They are corrupt and their arguments collapse when challenged. That’s why they need the rules and referees slanted in their favor. That’s why they need censorship, deplatforming and control.
I know it can be overwhelming at times to find optimism against all of this corruption, but the choice of joy is ours.
Every time you enjoy your day, you are winning. Every time to do not let them steal your peace of mind, you defeat them. Every time you embrace the simple joys of the sun on your face or the breeze upon you, and you do it with gratitude and genuine thankfulness for this blessed life we are able to live, you defeat every element of darkness that would whisper on your shoulder.
Ultimately, this is what living your best life is about. Life is about choices. Choose to be happy, make a conscious effort to cherish and appreciate the people around you. Give that starter smile; if you have the time – give up your place in line to someone who doesn’t; open the door, help your neighbor, do something random and useful and good, and do it as much as you can.
Find a way to generate and express grace, even in the face of hate and bitterness. Be wise, perhaps cynical and be strategic. Be cautious and yet do not allow coarseness to become your center of gravity. In the face of all adversity and disenchantment, keep peace within yourself. Live with the joy our loving God provides and fearlessly live your best life.
I will share more as time permits and try to answer any questions that might surface.
Are you willing to go on a larger media platform to talk about this (Bannon War room for example) ?
This should get more exposure.
Personally, I am good with this way! Whatever Sundance deems best –
I liked what Dutchman said last night about Sundance taking option 2, of not talking about what was going on at the time and keeping the Treehouse going on as normal.
A self-disciplined approach, cool and steady!
anonymity is the way to go.
No it isn’t. What SD uncovered false witness. That is no doubt is being used by J6 committee to imprison citizens exercising their freedoms.
Once SD called them on proving providence they backed off because it would expose the lie. A defensive move.
This TRUTH has to be promulgated to the four corners of this country. This could be the thing that collapses government construct.
Everyone here knows I’m a hawk and ready when presented with max tyranny, to pick up a rifle. That said, yesterday was schooled by SD and shown an alternative. And I appreciate his effort.
As he said, white hats don’t have badges, but there is truth and offense to expose.
THEY bore false witness to SD and THEY will do it against US.
Mike. They’re doing this to a lot of people right now. And the truth is, ‘they’ and certain state and local jurisdictions have been doing this shit for years!!!!
Dutch knows, I know, others know.
It is just out in the open with people of notoriety and others like SD (who was/is innocent) you ‘know.’
It’s the only way when they have the power and ‘shield’ of the State.
They will spare no expense nor refrain nor malevolent action to you and everyone you ever loved from going full bore past what SD did to defend himself if you play into that ‘game.’
You don’t ever won’t to be even in a position to have to contemplate anything like what can be implied by your temporary rage.
Please, trust me on this one!
It is a losing proposition from every conceivable angle you are able to run thru your mind.
Been there, done that!
I dont know who Sundance is personally but hold him in great respect. I trust his judgement implicitly.
All The Three Letter Agencies know exactly who he is. I think there is benefit in those who the blinders are just coming off knowing that there is a real person who has been at uncovering the lies for a long time.
I use my name, instead of “honoraryintern”, because anonymous here only benefits the Uniparty in preventing others from knowing my views and allows random actors to claim credit or misdirect what Ive done or said. I’m as transparent as saran-wrap now.
I’d vote for a real ID but allow for family protection to take precedence.
Hwie Carr mentioned the post on his show today. .. read extracts. Howie follows CTH.
Agree. CTH gets his message out without the exposure and personal cost to himself and family.
“Every time you enjoy your day, you are winning. Every time to do not let them steal your peace of mind, you defeat them. Every time you embrace the simple joys of the sun on your face or the breeze upon you, and you do it with gratitude and genuine thankfulness for this blessed life we are able to live, you defeat every element of darkness that would whisper on your shoulder.”
An uplifting and strong statement. Thank you.
I agree with this sentiment, this statement and believe it’s essential to staying sane and happy. However…
I feel like many, myself included, are relying on following the rules of a corrupted system to try and regain some semblance of our Republic. We believe DJT is the proper person at this time to begin fixing things. Can he be put back in power within this corrupted system? It has already been proven “No, he can’t” so where do we stand?
I occasionally get kicked in the stomach and feel down when truly understanding how bad things are. I take breaks from checking in on what’s going on to stay sane and enjoy life to the fullest. I do not however, like feeling like there’s nothing I can do and/or I’m not doing anything to help contribute to bettering our country’s situation.
Periodically I get the unfortunate feeling/thought that what we actually need at this time is a John Wick. Rather, many John Wicks to rapidly eradicate the evil and allow justice, honest authority and the choice of the people to once again reign.
2020 was NOT “proof he can’t”, and by that logic I could equally argue that 2016 was proof he CAN.
BECAUSE of 2020, we know exactly what happened in 2016.
BECAUSE in 2020 they “pulled out all the stops” in so doing they SHOWCASED for all to see, EVERY method they use, for rigging elections.
And, the argument they made that “with the way our election system is set up, different States, etc. its nearly impossible to steal a Presidential election” is false, there IS a “grain of truth” there.
Its DIFFICULT to rig a Presidential election, yes even WITH the machines, and when the cheater has to overcome an opponents landslide, it is far more challenging, and impossible to do without the theft being obvious.
“Swamp the vote, to beat the cheat” is EXACTLY what happened in 2016.
Because of the “Trump effect” on their internal poll #’s, they underestimated the size of Candidate DJ Trumps ‘legitimate’ margin of victory, that they needed to overcome.
Because MAGA voters insisted in voting in person, on election day it wasn’t until just before election day that they realised the #’s they had programmed into the machines, (the “weighted” vote) were too low.
And, in order to correct it, with the ‘stop the count, change the algorythm #’s, and give Hillary a ‘jump start’ of 5-10,000 votes, they would need paper ballots to “back fill” that THEY DIDN’T HAVE.
And THATS how Candidate DJ Trump won in 2016.
But, even after it happened, we had NO idea thats WHAT happened.
Now, we know. And we know because 2020, and the investigations that followed, NOT by FBI/DOJ, NOT by RNC, but by a “rag tag alliance” of MANY people, with different expertise, coming at it from many different angles, figured it out.
From the Az audit, to Tina Peters, TTV to Mike Lindell, every aspect of HOW it was done has been identified, analysed and in most cases, made public.
And, that DOES make a difference. Rest assured, THEY are not at all confident that they can “just steal it again”, otherwise they would NOT be pulling these desperate measures of indicting PDJT, or trying desperately to push the dead horse that is RDS.
THEY know their capabilities, and they are not confident they can steal it.
So, WHY would anyone who is on our side, express confidence they can steal it in 2024?
With the AZ Supreme Court ruling today mandating the signatures to be evaluated on 300k ballots, it gives us a vision of how the outcome in 2024 can be different.
The Uniparty will have to evaluate if the risk is too great in an appeal to the US Supreme Court. Eg:loosing the Executive offices of AZ vs a national ruling on signature match. No matter this provides fuel for patriots in swing states to challenge envelopes in their states.
The Uniparty path to a potential win is being surgically cut to pieces. Jay Valentine was Debbie Downer today but I think he was trying to shame the RNC into spending enough money up front. His work slices that path even narrower.
My little brain says there must be Attorneys and lawsuits before, to prove what they are trying to do; and after, to say they did what we told you they would. Latches be damned.
I believe God is in the midst of this fight and there will be many more unexpected surprises up to and including Election Day.
Our nation will be reclaimed..
“With a pencil” 🤣🤣🤣
Had the exact same conversation today with a friend.
preparing yourself and your situation in any small way to BE the needed John Wick helps to overcome feelings of despair
Lurker…Says who he can’t?
Two days. Two big hits.
Soros AG Kim Gardner. Gone…resigned.
Walensky, CDC director. Gone….resigned.
We’re winning and it’s getting too hot in the kitchen for these crooks.
This political landscape is going to look so different by 2024 that we won’t even be able to draw comparisons to 2020.
Trump in the White House and Jack Smith in the line of thousands to go to the gallows for treason.
It will be so worth the wait.
Or somehow get public to support funding a group of patriotic mercenaries with covert experience, a plan and about 200 targets and this mess is over with… let a man dream
I joined my HOA 3 years ago, about 220 residences, it’s a second home area with majority from DC, Bethesda, North Virginia. I got tired of the nonsense rules imposed by the previous boards, I’m blessed to have a like minded president, a libertarian. We have made the DC crowds heads explode, they are a minority interest that THOUGHT they were the majority. We have struck rules and cut thru the BS. One day she asked me why I fight so hard… me… liberals and progressives must be curb stomped and never let up. It’s my little slice of the world, liberals ruin everything. Carry on.. she said. It sounds weird but serving really keeps me sane.
Principles in action, head above your feet. A great prescription.
We escaped northern Virginia too. Our community has an organized “Conservative Club”. We have events and speakers. Conservatives and Christians. And, of course, I’ve turned them on to CTH.
👏
And that is how we win.
Word of mouth.
Telling others about the Treehouse.
I cannot express how much I love and appreciate you and the Treepers.
I second that; here, here!
Yes, lots of appreciation coming from this corner also.
Ditto!
And thru all this you were working to rebuild from the hurricane disaster, run a web site, write in depth political investigation commentary?
How do you do all of this?
With our prayers.
I have to admit when I read this kind of stuff I get overwhelmed and so angry and I feel helpless. But you and Tucker always reinforce the same message, live your best life with the ones you love so I try to remember that everyday. Before I got to sleep every night I tell myself how blessed I am because I am.
I am really worried about PDJT and the DOJ charging him with this seditious conspiracy nonsense. I am so tired of LAWFARE. I want it all to stop, I am not sure how much more of it I can stomach.
I know it has only been a couple of weeks but I really miss listening to Tucker. I rarely missed a show in the last 4 years. Sad I know I need more of life but I enjoyed his takes and he makes it all make sense much like you Sundance except I have to read you instead of listening. lol
I often just read the transcripts as I feel it limits my chances to misunderhear. Neil Oliver gets a read and a listen. I very thankful for having been able to read Sundance for the past seven years or so. He certainly speaks to me.
I believe President Trump knows we can win this war because “They” live in glass houses and the toilets are backing up!
I miss Tucker, too. I’ve taken to watching Frasier reruns which is on in Tucker’s time slot just to have some laughs. I know Tucker will be back soon and I also know the ‘good guys’ are winning overall. Truth always prevails and we know the ‘bad guys’ are liars. So, they ultimately lose.
Retired Magistrate here: President Trump lives each day to the fullest; we all need to do the same thing. He knows what he is facing; however, President Trump has made a choice, carry on and treat each day as if it might be his last, because it might. The same holds true for all of us.
This is the day that the LORD has made; rejoice and be glad in it.
Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
I whole heartedly agree with you regarding PDJT. I pray for him every night…asking God to protect him, give him wisdom and discernment, courage and strength. I see nobody else who can fill his shoes…all other so-called Republicans are week knee, namby pambys that would fold when faced with a tenth of what PDJT has endured…and to the detriment of his businesses and family. I don’t worship him as some people claim his supporters do. I worship only God. But I am convinced PDJT is our greatest, best hope for restoring freedom and individual rights in the current political climate.
Our real President, Donald J. Trump is Pro-Life. I pray for him, Melania, Barron and all of his children and grandchildren.
I think often of his great struggle in getting the Supreme Court Justices approved. He called upon the name of God in his rallies. Melania prayed the Our Father prayer at one of them.
He is being beset by all the powers of darkness that satan can unleash upon a human being.
I am pleading with The Father to protect Donald J. Trump and all of his family.
We will be judged by the Just Judge as to how much we have loved in this life. He loves much. He loves us and our Beautiful Country. May our Merciful God give him strength.
Sundance: I am SOOO grateful for you!
Me, too!!! 🙂
This likelyhood of this post happening at another site is close to nil.
Sundance, the owner of this blog, took the time to individually answer questions in the 900 comment original thread. He compiled his answers in this thread and posted all collected for everyone to see.
Humble leadership changes the potential outcomes. We are all watching that, in real time, happen here..
You can’t lead the people if you can’t lead the work.
Nice follow up.
May the Lord continue to Bless, Comfort, Support, have Mercy, and shed His Grace on you, SunnyD!
God chooses His warriors.
Not by chance are we in the presence of one of the best and most faithful.
As Teddy Roosevelt said,
“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.”
Polish up your spiritual armour, Treepers The battlefield is calling.
A Voice of one ….
Sometimes one voice rises above the cacophony of thousands more.
When I first started reading Conservative Treehouse and decided to make this my internet home for the same reasons others do, I’d find myself hoping to see Sundance’s sharp observations and well thought out analyses linked to elsewhere. I didn’t.
Now?
His voice is rising and getting louder, his trenchant truths are being heard and repeated. Sometimes all it takes is one…at least to get the attention of more who are also willing to step up and step out into the public arena as he has done. We’re close to the edge now with all to lose.
It takes just two Betsy. Both psychology wise and in prayer. I’ll stand with you anyday..
Bless, Robb. How very right you are, sir.
Case in point.
This thread appeared almost as soon as Sundance put it up over at The New Americanist as their afternoon offering.
Sundance is blooming! We are to bloom where we are planted.
Colossians 2:7, “Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.”
Thank you for sharing – and mostly for encouraging!
Words cannot describe the joy, respect, peace of mind you bring with each passing day. Respectfully…
My husband and I moved to a small conservative farm community in Indiana two years ago.
I can honestly say- if I had not found peace and clarity with AA and had Sundance to tell me the truth and always educate me- I would be a crazy, retired 71 yr old woman with severe depression.
Instead we both stay grateful, full of God’s love and direction and red pilling as many people as we can-
living our best life. Thank you Sundance from the bottom of my heart.
Blessing on you, Kathleen.
God bless you Sundance
President Trump should hire Dubes because Wiessmen The Rat is coming for him.
Perhaps he already has hired Dubes…
From your lips to Trump’s ears! I pray every single day that President Trump is able to find and surround himself with loyal, honest, patriotic team members that can help him defeat the evil monster that is our corrupt government. I’m just glad that there are still people in this country that still give a shit. President Trump, Sundance, Tucker Carlson, posters here, friends and family, and some others I know in my city, and on the Internet. God watches over and protects those who stand on the side of what is good and pure.
Sundance,
I find joy where I can in simple things, but I am not nearly so optimistic. I think our grandchildren might win if we lay the groundwork, but I view the prospects of victory in my lifetime as vanishingly small. JMHO. Thanks!
God is MUCH BIGGER than all of this, though; the victory will be HIS!!!
For me, the admonition of “live your best life”, while appreciated is largely unneccesary, as I have soughtcand found silver linings, my whole life.
The paragraph that starts with “Bottom line” is, for me the “buried lead”.
WE ARE WINNING, and in the end can not lose.
It is my absolute conviction in ultimate victory that enables me to restrain my emotions when (for instance) the FBI raids MAL, and I wait for “the REST of the story”.
My confidence in victory ENABLES me to “live my best life”, to smile, to open a door for someone, to joke and get the wonderful experience of knowing I made someone else laugh.
Living your best life takes into account the concept of “amplification”; if you are angry, and feeling “aggrieved” because your President just had his home raided by the FBI, you are curt, rude and short tempered with the 10 people you interact with.
THEY now are angry at your rudeness to them, and they in turn pass it on.
And vice-versa, of coarse.
So,,first have CONFIDENCE and comfort that we WILL ultimately prevail.
FROM that position of confident victory, live your best life, and let your light shine bright.
If for no other reason, it REALLY triggers our enemies, lol.
Subversive Sunshine!
You sneaky devil you!
Wise words. I struggle with my temper sometimes too.
God bless you Sundance we are behind you 100% and thank you for opening my eyes 👀 since I was bless to find CTH.
What an appropriate date to post this. Monsieur Dubelier is responsible for “Sinko de Mueller”.
Coming soon to an F.B.I. /D.H.S. office near you…
FedGov: “So, you were claiming that Election Fraud for the presidency in 2020 was real?!”
CTH Member: “Yes.”
FedGov: “Election fraud is a lie: our courts have said so. There is no evidence of it!”
CTH Member: “The evidence of election fraud is easily obtainable and your courts refused to look at it.”
FedGov: “They cannot look at it because it does not exist. And so everything you say is disinformation, including your insistence that President Biden is illegitimate.”
CTH Member: “When you steal an election, you are in power illegitimately.”
FedGov: “You are fomenting sedition with such opinions, which is illegal! Guards!“
Dealing successfully with the Democrat’s election fraud machine is the most important task on the MAGA to do list. And yet it isn’t getting nearly the time, the attention, nor the funding it must have if Donald Trump is to win in 2024.
The RNC won’t do it. Donald Trump and his campaign staff must take direct responsibility for fighting the Democrat’s election fraud machine, and also supply the resources needed to get the job done. Trump and his campaign staff must supply both the team leadership skills and the team coordination skills needed to weld a number of disparate efforts into an effective nationwide anti-fraud team.
If Donald Trump and his campaign organization don’t do this, if he and his campaign staff don’t take direct responsibility for fighting the Democrat’s election fraud machine, that would be a sure indication that neither he nor his campaign are truly serious about in winning in 2024.
“…The RNC won’t do it....”
The RINOS absolutely will not do it, because a good number of them depend on Election Fraud, especially in primaries!
Yes, Election Fraud is Problem #1!
Bingo again!
Bingo!
READ the sedition statute.
It says “by force” numerous times, and “act of war” which is inherentlyvan application of FORCE.
Take those words out, and read it, again.
Virtually every action or word it lists, is protected by the Bill of Rights; freedom of assembly and freedom of speech.
Ergo, the use of force, or advocating the use of force, is THE “Key element of the crime”.
Ergo, stating the election was stolen, gathering together with others to discuss the theft, or non violent means to seek redress is NOT sedition.
My dialogue from the future is of the next step in an era where quibbling about words in the Constitution will not protect you, because our enemies do not care what the Constitution says.
You care, but they do not! They have already twisted many parts of it to their advantage…and added things to it which it never had before! (e.g. a “Right” to Kill Infants Born and Unborn, or to experiment with sexual operations on children, or force people to have experimental vaccinations, etc.)
“When I use a word, it means only what I want it to mean.” – Lewis Carroll’s Humpty Dumpty.
Next, grab a pencil and get to work?
🙂 I hope so!
Good old-fashioned paper and pen(cil) still allow information to spread…and governments will have no instant awareness of it!
This is vital material. Thank you.
Sad to say, I figured they just might or rather would go after you sooner or later, Sundance. H3LL anyone that does not walk lockstep with the current Globalist Regime are prone to be investigated, whether they run a forum like this one, do a media show or just comment on some type of social media.
The Last Refuge is quoted and used by so many known conservative media people, lawmakers & I do believe I remember someone saying something about Trump mentioning or using it as a reference
Do believe that if you had posted it when it happened then you might have ended up being an even bigger target then you already are.
Sundance I’m always praying daily for your safety, as I am sure all the other Treepers do too daily.
Thank You and God Bless you Sundance for all you do.
I have one more question, if they are not monitoring here, how come the ads on the site are based on our search history?
What ads? Serious question… I use the Brave browser with full shields up and I have no ads.
Your ads are probably from your browser.
Firefox, by the way, is aligned with $oros.
Good that you don’t see ads, but I do, using Safari or Chrome, and that means that someone/something is following me here. If they see me, I guess they see you too.
Even Sundance acknowledged the ads in another thread another day, replying to a poster.
Chrome is the Eye of Sauron. Don’t use it. Duck Duck Go is his little pal.
Bing may be likened to Saruman.
I’ve been trying out Brave. Not as many bells and whistles as Sauron but it gets the job done
Same here, and I use Safari.
I have an iphone but that emblem on the back..
squint your eyes..
has the look of a stormtrooper helmet with the visor up..
Brave works on Apple
I see no ads. I use Brave Browser as well. Shields up.
It’s been so long since I’ve seen an ad on this site, that I didn’t even know that there were any.
I see the ads every time I open a page here. They don’t bother me, but it just means that someone/something is seeing me here:
Use Brave browser. The ads & pop up’s never appear.
But the ads do exist here in this site. I know Sundance protects our private information as name and email address, but what we post here is not as private as we want to be. I’m not complaining, just pointing out.
I’ve never seen anything like that here. Yes, I’m another Brave user.
uBlock Origin
You may have been followed here by the cookies on your device. I’m not very knowledgeable, but I am paranoid and so I do my best to distance myself from Google, Windows, the internet (via VPN) but I feel sure there are people that know more about me than I would prefer. Look into the security settings on your computer and browser(s). JMHO
I don’t take any of the measures cantcforest mentions, and I don’t see any ads. Never have. Just have adblock.
…same and I use Brave.
Yes same for me using Brave browser and their VPN…no ads ever.
Same and I use Opera browser on a windows PC
I see ads. … I think they are Big Goggle ads, as I use their browser. … I do NOT consider the ads to be part of The Conservative Treehouse site. … I see the ads from Temu. (See Val1 comment) … I see the same ads basically, as I see on other sites.
I also use a VPN. Just a precaution.
@sundance
“I have one more question, if they are not monitoring here, how come the ads on the site are based on our search history?”
A valid question. Perhaps you can answer that?
Personally, I don’t mind seeing ads. Nothing in life is for free and I understand that the costs for operating this website must be somehow payed.
That said, a look at the source code of the page shows that this site is definitely using google analytics and the google tracker.
Now, as far as I’m aware google does not record what the user types in the comments but the google tracker collects data.
Could you tell what data is collected by the google tracker?
I would greatly appreciate an answer to that question.
I assume that anything typed into anything related to Google is theirs.
I have never seen an ad at CTH.
Thank you for everything SD!
Had a wonderful day today working in my yard, took a walk, prayed and read the Bible, and had a nice meal. Praise God from whom all blessings flow 🎶.
Thank you Sundance.
Thank you for those last few paragraphs. I’ve written here before about the contrasting emotions going through my mind all the time now, and I know I’m not alone — it’s a witch’s brew of pride, angst, gratitude, shame, helplessness, anger, weariness,disbelief, patriotism, hope, and misery…but as SD says, I also thank God when I wake up for another day, for this great country still having a chance, and for the beauty all around us.
Reminding one another that all is not lost, that good things still happen every day, and that the small blessings we pass along to the next person count....is the only way to go. And to remember, as Gandalf said when Frodo wished he hadn’t been chosen to bear the burden, that we can’t choose the time we are here, but only what we do with the time we are here.
Thank you, for bringing light into the dark place we find ourselves. I am sorry you had to go through that, but as His word teaches us, Roman’s 8: 31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
God Bless you and keep you.
Thank you, Sundance for “creating a proprietary commenting system!”
I recall the patience you displayed and explained (previous posts archived, etc.),… and the pains and expense you endured while researching just how you wanted the CTH relaunch to be designed.
Forewarned is Forearmed in our data driven world now, eh? Living my best life day by day, here, with your info/encouragements,… Thanks, again.
I’m very grateful for this place. My question meant no disrespect to Sundance and all the people involved in keeping the site.
Not that you have any reason to fear, but are you concerned that after you took them down for their false claims against you and have now shed sunlight on their sources and methods, that you are now a target and they are just watching for the slightest slip up to come after you?
Respectfully, Sundance and the Treehouse have been “in their sights” for a long time.
THEY are not nearly as powerful as they want us to percieve.
They are the grade school bully, shoving the new kids head in the toilet, as other students pretend not to notice, and just glad it isn’t them.
Even though if several joined forces, they could end the bullying permanently by directly confronting the bully, they don’t and so the bullying continues.
Right up until someone, some ONE PERSON, steps up, directly confronts the bully, who promptly backs down, because the bully isn’t looking for a confrontation, they are looking for aquiesance.
Yep, and DJT is that ONE PERSON and they fear him like no other.
Yes, Dutch, if we ascribe to them too much power we thereby give it to them.
Presume omniscience and you grant omniscience.
Deny it and refuse it.
“Everyone has a plan until the get punched in the mouth.”
Are there not any people in Congress who will do or say a small part of what you do? Or do they all just care about their money?
Consider Devin Nunes and Rand Paul as being a step above?
Nunes is no longer IN Congress, and speaking for myself, the answer is NO.
J.D. Vance and Eric Schmidt, in the Senate, might be promising, still watching.
Remember all of those who were elected as “Tea party” and then seemed to go “swampy”?
KL’s share at CPAC USA, is insightful.
She related she recieved a phone call, from someone she KNEW, requesting a face to face at her home, to discuss something they didn’t want to talk about on the phone.
They arrived and told her they were conveying an OFFER to her from “East Coast interests”.
IF she would not pursue any political office, for the next two years, they would give her a board position on a major corporation, with a salary of $100,000/ year, plus perks.
She told them she wasn’t interested.
They then asked “What would it take?” implying “name your price”.
She then told them no amount of $ and asked them to leave.
HOW many, in that situation would say “No”?
Compare Cohen and Manafort. Faced with what both were threatened with, how many would be Manafort, and how many Cohen?
They can use both the carrot, and the stick, and as Sundances story shows, the stick can include planting evidence, and bankrupting you as you try to prove your innocence.
So, how many in Congress, both House and Senate, can we truly trust?
Damn few if any, I would say.
Can’t be bought is one of my prime measures.
Everyone else will say what they have to get elected and then do what they get paid for.
Kinda like Satan selling Hell before and after the selection..
I do note that Dubelier is suddenly out of Reed Smith. Unsure what that means.
The average person receiving such a subpoena, one that says it isn’t but is accusing someone of a crime, would be forced to hire an attorney. Just the consultation, written communication or phone calls with the client or government would bankrupt most people. The process is explicitly designed to bankrupt people, force a plea or testimony (narrative) the government wants to hear or to convict and jail the person. In most cases, all of that, they want and intend to destroy the target.
Like Sundance, I always represented “en proper” i.e. represented myself.
Not for EVERYONE, certainly. However, if your looking at Bankruptcy if you hire an attorney, and you have a good basic understanding of the law, my experience in civil criminal including multiple felonies and one Federal offence, as well as several cases if administrative law, was very positive,…frankly I kicked butt.
After all, its not THAT complicated, otherwise LAWYERS couldn’t do it, lol.
We called it ‘pro se’ where I came from. Not sure in this state.
SD, rhetorical question, you know this is not the end of it.
Sundance knows who will be the true judge of the genuine end of it, and that makes all the difference.
Thank you for the pep talk. It was a welcome and timely reminder.
Making the choice to be happy and to lift up the spirits of those around us versus depressing them with nothing but doom and gloom is a different way of fighting back.
Tremendous insight and Advice –
Thank You for all you do
TRULY Believe GOD is in Control. However there is a reason we sometimes have to go through some crazy messes. Remember how the Romans persecuted the Christians, how all the apostles were persecuted with some dying horribly and there are many more similar incidents throughout history.
Currently I just take it one day at a time, sometimes when the political crap gets too much for me, I just tune out with games, go to Custer to enjoy all God’s beauty, and anything but listen to news, or read what I feel will probably put me into what I call my political funk again. Still working my butt off doing what I can locally, state wide and nationally to try and get America back on track.
Looking at the way things are going right now I don’t see any upward gain in getting our country back to it constitutional moral values.
Unless some miracle happens in the next year and a half it will not matter who runs for POTUS, the election will be stolen again(if there is an election).
No, they have NO confidence they will be able to steal it again.
LOOK, objectively at the actions of your enemy, in order to READ what THEY are thinking.
They HAD to know indicting PDJT, especially after his popularity went up after the MAL raid, was a risk, and yet they did it anyway.
And, we all SEE the play; as the election proceeds, the Ga DA will follow suit with more junk indictments, and PDJT’s campaign fund and popularity will grow.
WHY bother, if they were CONFIDENT they could “just steal it, again”?
Remember Hillary ran a “basement campaign” with no Covid as an excuse; we all thought it was a physical/medical problem, but we now know its because she hates “pressing the flesh” and because she was CONFIDENT she would STEAL it.
Do you see such confidence in our enemies?
I SURE DON’T.
They still have the MSM. I’m afraid their collective diminishing numbers are still louder than our disparate squeaks from various corners of the internet.
The MarxMerdia is imploding.
Blogs and podcasts are booming.
Devotees share and amplify and enable others to escape the matrix; I not only share CTH at every opportunity, I have often made myself get out and about in order to discover opportunities to do so, which were quite easy to find during the mask imposition phase of the plandemic and I was the only one wearing a smile, and I doubt I am alone in so doing.
‘They’ want you to believe you’re losing and they’re winning. They want you down and depressed. You’re easier to control that way. Living your best life gives you hope and a fighting spirit, which they are terrified of. Don’t give in. Don’t give up!
Be Happy and be Kind to others. We have each other and God.
Wowzer. I did not comment in the other thread, so just want to tell you, Sundance, that you are an inspiration. You are using the vast gifts that God gave you to be a major force for good. Even the most talented rarely go to such lengths and with such determination and dedication. Thank you for giving of yourself so completely. God is right there with you and using you in immeasurable ways!👍🏻🙌🏻🙏🏼❤️
Amen to that!
SD … Thank you for your words of encouragement. It is quite easy to get DIScouraged … but courage is always the best path. And yes, because I live simply … my life is full, and spiritual. I would consider myself to be living well! Take THAT leftist ghouls! My grandkids won’t be getting chemically castrated! They’ll be earning degrees and learning things … real things.
Again I ask who told the Twitter employee which bread crumbs to drop? They created connections with J6 detainees before J6? Did they have a crystal ball or were all these guys just pre-ordained patsies?
Maybe there is more surveillance than just backdoors into social media accounts/Google?
The time is near when all must stand up, And formally declare ourselves to be enemies of the state.
Imagine what could happen if everyone was as brave as Sundance?
“When you change the way you look at something, what you look at changes.”
John Boyd called this, “Building snowmobiles” and “Destruction & Creation” among other things.
Great example. I’ll draw three things on a piece of paper.
A square.
A triangle.
A square with an X reaching the four corners.
How many shapes/objects are there?
Answer:
One. It’s a pyramid viewed from three directions, bottom, side, top.

I see waves crashing on the rocks.

Both. 😁
Eric Dubelier was definitely a good tactician to analyze. I remember reading some law blogs following his decimation of the case against Concord Mgmt. Best comment was, “No lawyer should have as much fund as Dubelier is having. It’s just not fair.”
😂
SD thank you for all you do. I have read your thoughts for many years, and your insight is unique, invaluable and dead on. Your spiritual compass is precious, GBY.
TY so very much, Sundance. That was a lovely summary. As anyone who has read my comments knows, I love Jesus. He is my Lord and my Saviour. A Pastor’s wife told me when I was a young Mom in my 20’s (many, many moons ago) that: “There’s no excuse not to be Gracious”. I have never forgotten that. I admit, I haven’t always lived up to it, but it remains a personal ‘goal’ of mine.
Because I do love my Lord, I cherish God’s Word. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
When I’m downcast, when I’m discouraged, when I’m afraid, etc… I turn to God’s Word for help. No matter how bad this world is (and it’s been pretty bad, of late), I am reminded of a few things:
1- my citizenship, ultimately, is in heaven (Phil. 3:20)
2- to focus on good things (which is not ‘positive thinking’) (Phil. 4:8)
3- to look upwards (LK. 21:28)
4- pray always (1 Thes. 5:17)
5- remind myself that no matter what, I am free in Christ (Gal. 5:1)
6- God reigns over all nations and is on the Throne (PS. 47:8)
7- and remember the Joy that awaits me
Rev. 21:
4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
5 Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”
6 And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. 7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
Thank you CTH for your relentless pursuit of the truth, and the telling of it.
Thank you also for the eloquent words of encouragement.
God Bless You and Protect You.
What is it called? “Cold Resistance?”
It’s like cold anger. It isn’t acted upon with direct confrontation.
Thx for everything, SD. If you need it the truck will be packed and on the road to the SD compound post haste.
I’m truly in awe of Sundance.
