Thank you to all readers and members of the Conservative Treehouse fellowship for your continued support. Without your help this little corner of the research and discussion internet just could not exist. I will always work earnestly to be deserving of that support and fellowship.
We are fortunate, blessed and protected by a loving God, who has abundant confidence in our stewardship.
As new visitors attest every day, the fellowship in this commenting community is unique, insightful, articulate, intelligent and funny. I love you guys.
As we cycle through the third anniversary of our original deplatforming, we have just learned that our server fees will be increasing 25% as we enter year four of CTH 2.0. Inflation is hitting everywhere, I guess.
Due to direct targeting, without your support we could not exist. Retaining our ability to research, share and discuss ongoing events is my #1 priority. Thank you again for your friendship and support.
There are currently two methods to support CTH 2.0, our ongoing mission and discussion. However, depending on your browser settings (and ad blocker software) the second option may not be visible. There is a screengrab below showing what I am talking about.
The alternative financial support appears directly below the PayPal link in a yellow box as highlighted. Some have said browser settings can block visibility, and I have also heard it doesn’t show up on some mobile devices. I am not sure what the technical issue might be other than ISP filters (now becoming more problematic) and/or adblocking software.
Due to my personal requirements for Treehouse user privacy, and my firm stance on not retaining user data lists, the alternative system does not provide a subscriber option. If you use the alternative support function, each time you would want to support CTH, you have to click it and reenter your information. No data is saved.
Financial support through PayPal remains the most efficient and stable way to support CTH. I know they have received a lot of criticism, much of it well placed; however, my own experience with PayPal has been solid. When CTH was deplatformed and under attack from Big Tech (Eye of Sauron), to their credit PayPal stood firm and supported CTH in providing their service.
While my experience with PayPal seems to run counter to the outcome described by others, the unexpected supportive position from PayPal made a strong impression on me. Again, perhaps unique, not sure why, but my experience with them has been very good. If that ever changed, I would immediately let you know. The data security and convenience of their system is also solid and useful.
Regardless, there are two options: (1) PayPal and (2) Proprietary. Due to legal caution, and the data privacy construct, the Proprietary alternative has a 30-day access lag built in. Meaning, if you use that option, in approximately 30 days the funds become accessible; whereas support through the preferred PayPal option is immediate.
November is the anniversary month when all the contract fees for server hosting, data-processing, autoscaling, data security and background stuff associated with the building and maintenance of CTH 2.0 are paid. Thanks to everyone who helps offset these costs, our voice remains in the fight.
We are committed to staying strong, fiercely protective of user data privacy, and anti-fragile so that we can withstand big tech (Google) targeting.

Love to all,

With pleasure, Sundance. Thanks for asking 👍
Subscribed monthly through PayPal. Thank you for your guidance through all of this insanity. From Trayvon 2012 to Trump 2024.
Same for me.
Me, too
I think Trayvon was when I first ‘met’ Sundance and CTH. I wondered why I wasn’t reading some of what he reported in other news outlets. I’ve since learned why., and I’ve been a regular here ever since.
Me as well. 🙂
Same. Trayvon(2012) was the first great experience here.
I think we arrived here about the same time. Not sure how I first came here, but I know it was re: the crap show called Trayvon Martin.
That was the hook, I got reeled in during the 2016 Election and the “splitter strategy”.
I sensed that was happening, but once it was explained in clear, concise terminology, it made perfect sense.
Just like so, so many other things I read here!
Another member of the Treehouse Trayvon club here.
Done. Thank you and God bless.
Pleasure to donate, too bad you don’t get it all. I guess the Canadian rate of exchange is garbage, same as our country. God Bless.
Done! Thank you for this site.
Done. Thank you Sundance for a little haven of sanity in these times.
Proud to be a monthly contributor for a few years now, best use of my money I ever spent.
Thank you for ALL you do, Sundance! Thanks to you I’m living my best life!
MegaDitto!
Done. Best investment I ever made.
Does the alternative method result in a larger net donation than PayPal does due to their fees?
I wish it was more.
While my economic circumstance has been dramatically been impacted by Fauci jab mandate, and perhaps, other targeting, I am happy to provide a modest, symbolic, ‘stand up and be counted’ support for the Treehouse. Thank you Sundance.
Everything helps.
A mite sent your way my friend.
Thanks Sundance.
Sundance, When you call, we answer! Carry on!!
Sundance
I hear your call, glad to help
.Love to you
Tea
God bless you, sir! May the Lord keep you under His mighty, loving arms.
With gratitude Sundance.
Done. Thank you from a long time reader!
I guess spreading the word would result in additional server overhead when new readers join the Treehouse. A 25% increase in operating costs is thus good news to the extent it is attributable to this reason. Gladly inflating my contribution 25%.
Mega MAGA Dittos.
Sundance, thank you so much for the light you bring to this forum. I am personally blessed to belong to the Treeper family. Your post yesterday was much needed. I hope we can all get back to having Faith in God. There are plenty of blogs with negative thinking. With God, all things are possible.
Done. Thanks, Sundance…
Done. Thanks for all your great work.
SD, Substack offers fee levels for content providers. I am a VFW and will always be loyal to all you Treepers, please consider a monthly fee if needed. I will do a Paypal for now, but just think if you charged $1, $2, $3… per month.
Just sent a donation and upped my monthly donation to that amount. Godspeed, brother!
in for 20/month…..mrrosebowl
you are a big part of living my best life
DO NOT TRUST PAYPAL!!!
Seriously? Did you even read SD’s post?
While my experience with PayPal seems to run counter to the outcome described by others, the unexpected supportive position from PayPal made a strong impression on me. Again, perhaps unique, not sure why, but my experience with them has been very good. If that ever changed, I would immediately let you know.

I don’t. But I think you’re being naive if you think the deep state doesn’t already know who you are. Or can’t find you if it wants to. You’d pretty much have to be living off grid without internet access.
If you are here, reading this, you know why CTH is worth monthly support. $10 or more per month is an investment in America’s best future.
You got it my friend!
I have been a Treeper for a very very long time. I tell others whom I meet that are like minded to read “The Last Refuge” site on a daily basis to be truly informed and to support this site with the fruits of their labor. Each one has thanked me for the tip.
Looks like I’m going to have to rejoin PayPal. CTH is worth it. Thank You for your hard work.
You don’t have to join. I’m not a member and used PP. Look for the ‘or you can pay by credit card…’ part w/in the PP selection.
Love you, MAGA Brother. 👊👊🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
I checked the credit card box and my donation still went through PP, dagnagit!!
That happened to me too.
Perfectly reasonable. “Cloud servers are real hardware that costs real money,” and yes, a lot of sites are experiencing price increases. The fees are metered by usage, and of course CTH is a heavily-used site. You usually do “get what you pay for” with a cloud service, and – to your supplier’s good credit – the runtime performance and “uptime” of CTH has always been excellent. There are lots of “behind the scenes” people who quietly cause this to happen.
So how do I use the alternative method if it is not visible on my browser?
Check your browser settings for ad blockers.
The alternative financial support appears directly below the PayPal link in a yellow box as highlighted. Some have said browser settings can block visibility, and I have also heard it doesn’t show up on some mobile devices. I am not sure what the technical issue might be other than ISP filters (now becoming more problematic) and/or adblocking software.
Was able to turn the adblocker off temporarily, find the yellow highlighted area, make a donation, and then turn the ad blcker back on.
I’m suprised I’m getting ads to block, because I think I’m a subscriber.
Use Brave browser on mobile?

$10 monthly. Best money I’ve ever spent! Thank you for this site Sundance.
Not often that I get a chance to help a beloved community and at the same time stick it to to the bidenistas. Thanks!
A good friend of mine told me about CTH in 2015, when the fake news were covering the 2016 election.
I will be supporting Sundance.
oNly wish I had a lot more to give…thanks Sundance for restoring my hope and my sanity in these times.
If I can see sundance face, I’ll send $100 :p
This site is SD’s face and heart.
Sent my modest donation. Closed PP after their woke threats. Still don’t trust them. They’re begging to reopen my account. I’ve been writing more checks since closing Venmo & PP. It’s a hassle but my small way to stop the machine.
I’ve also gone cash only but definitely want to support CTH again. Anyone else who is similarly committed to cash and committed to CTH…
I will post the question on page 2, asking if there is an address P.O. box to which a personal check can be sent.
Done. Thanks for all you do.
Thank you for the nudge, really!
Appreciate you SD and all your admins and electronics.

Sundance, you are the best! Stay in the game. Thanks for letting us know.
So much for the linear concept of time and Causality:
Just “randomly” decided it was time to hit the Donate button (that time of the month), then afterwards saw the sales pitch.
Done! Could not give a significant amount but will do so more often. I value all you do. Your site is a rock in these distressing & turbulent times.
It’s our duty to support our brothers and sisters in this fight.
Great info.
This sets the table perfectly.
I have always had aversion to online transactions, but now I have assurance.
I just might try both.
Thanks! It’s a great day, so get up and get out and enjoy it!
Last nights sunset was spectacular!
Sundance,
Thanks for all your hard work! Unfortunately I didn’t find CTH prior to 2013. It was a little hard to find. Probably because google was blocking your site or pushing all of your search results far down the list. One of the first articles I have from CTH is your excellent 2014 exposé on Obama’s Benghazi fiasco.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2014/09/01/the-benghazi-brief-2/
After “Born in Kenya” Barack Hussein Obama, who was not a Natural Born Citizen, occupied the White House for 8 years and then after corrupt Joe Biden stole the 2020 election, I wonder if President Trump will be allowed to return to the White House at any point in time. There is so much corruption and negativity in Washington DC and on the planet that makes it difficult at times to see beyond the gloom and doom. But whenever I refer back to your Get R Done article and watch the Hallelujah video I feel inspired and think that We The People will in fact prevail over this darkness. God help us.

Although I have made contributions previously, I just made another and I set you up for monthly payments (using my paypal email address). Keep on giving them hell.
Many blessings,
