Within a minute of Elon Musk tweeting our content everyone was happy, except me. You see, I know the game – and it ain’t what you think it is.
Elon is part of a targeting operation for DHS/Goog. I know this because the engineers who are told to turn the fine-tuning knobs like us. Let’s just say, we talk.
DHS and Big Tech still control the entirety of the social media ecosphere; given the “trillions at stake” in manipulating public opinion, they kinda have to. Rather than get angry about it, I just laugh and continue telling everyone what’s going on.
After deplatforming, we built this place to be antifragile. So, as you pull out your portable transponder units, ie cell phones to receive the latest intel, here’s some background on the Musk outcome:
Hello,
I’m writing from NewsGuard Technologies, Inc. You may recall that our company rates news and information websites for credibility and transparency, based on nine objective, nonpartisan criteria.
We are currently writing a Nutrition Label for TheConservativeTreehouse.com, and I have a few questions related to the site’s editorial practices. These largely relate to our list of criteria we use to evaluate websites, found here.
1- We found that the site continues to publish false or egregiously misleading content. For example, a January 2024 article titled “Tucker Carlson Asks if the COVID-19 Genetic Modification Vaccine Changes Your DNA” stated: “four years later questions are being raised about what that mRNA process might actually have done to the human genome.”
The article includes former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s interview with surgeon general of Florida Dr. Joseph Ladapo, in which Carlson asked, “Could foreign DNA enter your cells through the mRNA COVID vax and change your DNA — and humanity itself — forever?” To which Ladapo said, “Absolutely that could happen.”
COVID-19 mRNA vaccines don’t change human DNA. While mRNA vaccines such as Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines use a small part of an antigen’s genetic code to help a person develop antibodies, rather than small or inactivated doses of the antigen, they cannot change a person’s genetic makeup.
According to the website of the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), mRNA COVID-19 vaccines work by injecting cells with synthetic mRNA (molecules that transport genetic material within a cell), which contain instructions for generating the COVID-19 spike protein. (The spike protein is found on the surface of the COVID-19 virus and facilitates entry of the virus into healthy cells.) Production of the protein prompts the body to mount an immune response against COVID-19 without having ever been exposed to the virus.
“There is no risk of an mRNA vaccine changing your DNA because mRNA does not have the ability to alter DNA,” the NHGRI says on its site. “Your cells constantly make their own mRNA. The synthetic mRNA in the vaccine acts like any other mRNA that your cells make.”
A May 2024 article titled “Some People Surprised – The FBI Was Prepared to Use Deadly Force Against Trump Security Detail During Mar-a-Lago Raid to Regain Deep State FBI/DOJ Secrets” stated: “Apparently the FBI was prepared to engage in a gun battle or kill people in Mar-a-Lago in order to retake the evidence against them. I know it sounds scary, but that’s the reality of our modern FBI.”
The article misleadingly states that the FBI was prepared to kill people during the August 2022 raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida. This claim is based on misrepresentations of an FBI document, unsealed by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon in May 2024, that included standard language about the potential use of force during the execution of a search warrant.
The FBI document, known as an “operations order,” did include a clause stating that officers conducting the raid on Mar-a-Lago “may use deadly force only when necessary.” The order defined “necessary” as “when the officer has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer or to another person.”
However, in a legal motion filed in a Florida district court in May 2024, Trump’s lawyers misquoted this language as giving FBI agents permission to “use deadly force when necessary” — omitting both the word “only,” as well as clarifying language stating that agents were permitted to use deadly force only when facing “imminent danger of death or serious physical injury.”
In fact, the language used in the operations order is standard for FBI search warrants and does not constitute an order from President Biden or the U.S. Department of Justice to kill former President Trump. In a statement to The Associated Press in May 2024, the FBI described the language used in its operations order as “standard policy statement limiting the use of deadly force.”
“No one ordered additional steps to be taken and there was no departure from the norm in this matter,” the FBI wrote in the statement.
Do you stand by these articles or would like to comment on them?
2- We have been unable to find any corrections made to content on the site. Do you have any examples of corrections made to recent original content you can share with me? If not, why aren’t there any corrections?
3- Why doesn’t the site disclose its ownership or provide any information about its editorial leadership?
4- Similarly, why doesn’t the site provide contact information or biographies for its authors?
So you’re aware, we regularly incorporate comments from publishers in our reviews, so this conversation should be considered on the record.
Thank you for your time in advance.
Best,
Nikita

Seriously folks, this information monitoring is all just a little too funny. The need for control is a reaction to fear.
…”There is no such thing as “disinformation” or “misinformation”. There is only information you accept and information you do not accept. You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.”…
BOO!
1 – I stand by everything. It’s all just information.
2 – I think I made a correction once. Use your spiders to find it. Good luck.
3 – We the People own The Conservative Treehouse. I’m just the steward.
4 – If we didn’t have contact information, how did you contact us?
Lastly, do I need a speech impediment to pronounce “Vashisth”? 😂
Warmest regards,
~ Sundance
Nikita Vashisth, Russian maybe? I’d tell her to Pound Sand, you know that’s the CTH side business 😉
She is Indian:
Nikita Vashisth is a Staff Analyst for NewsGuard. Vashisth holds master’s degrees from Columbia University’s Graduate School of Journalism and Cardiff University’s Computational Journalism program. Previously, she worked as an editor and data journalist for Newschecker, covering misinformation and online hate speech. She also reported on Indian politics and environmental issues for CNN-News18 and IndiaSpend.
Reply to Fanbeav When you said she graduated from Columbia you could have stopped right there. That’s all we need to know about her political leanings (example) occupation/riots several months ag against the Jewish community)
Good work letting us know her background
we can all use our burner accounts to contact her to let her know how we feel…
Peruse the NewGuard website’s “Our Team” page and you’ll soon see surnames from far away places. Most are not of this land.
TF if I’m taking constitutional “direction” from some non-US citizen in there 20’s.
Anyone working at these places needs to be ridiculed and shunned. Especially their parents!
Constipational Journeyism? Got it…..
I agree with Boise Mom! Dead on!!! Columbia is toxic Marxist outlet machine!
Ok, she’s Indian. Her first name is a common Russian name. Easy to make that leap. No big deal.
Journalism is obviously not taught in Journalism schools, and it is manifoldly proven daily.
She has spent her entire career hunting for “hate speech” from the Right. For everything that a conservative said that can be construed as hateful, the Leftist are engaged in.
The Communist party is strong in India and has been since their “Non-aligned Nation” heydey in the 1960s. (aka reflexive rejection of Western-European “colonialist” values by Indian intellectual classes.) Many Indian socialists have adopted Russian-Marxist or German-Marxist “Western names.”
PDJT needs to jot down that name for future reference.
It’ll be added to the arrest lists.
Need to team up with OANN. Same group had a hand in deplatforming them.
https://www.oann.com/video/pearsonsharpreports/radical-leftist-organization-behind-efforts-to-censor-oan-shuts-down/
I routinely repost your “truths” on X and actually pin them to my profile. However, I am not an influencer with thousands of followers nor do I care to ever be monetized.
I am what Musk calls an”anon.” However, even though I consider myself a “Horton Hears a Who” poster on X, Telegram, Truth and to SKB, I feel a strong urge to do my small part to post insights and truths not being discussed by even the most monitized
super influencers.
So, I if can engage/enlighten/awaken even just 1 or 2 people, I fell I have helped our cause.
You guys proactively migrating your site to an independent, safe platform was an Herculean and complicated IT project, but it’s great you did migrate given we are now living out the dystopia of “1984.”
I believe I hear the 1812 overture.
Ironic how WordPress deplatforming CTH was a great service to MAGA,…we should send them a thank you card, every anniversery.
“WordPress”
Noun
A process by which words someone does not like are pressed to remove unsightly wrinkles.
Forget annually. We need to send one each month of the year, or even weekly!
I still use them to host my growing collection of media that I post here. Everyone should use them for media alone. 😎
Speaking of the 1812 Overture, this movie clip immediately comes to mind.
I think often of “Horton Hears a Who” as I yell “Yop!” one more time. We need leaders like Sundance, but changes really happen because of a million conversations with 1 or 2 others. I particularly appreciated this comment because today I got to see one person’s eyes opening on another platform and I am privileged to have had a hand in it.
“…one-by-one, by-one, by-one, by-one, by-one…………………………!
Mission accomplished, Patriot.
Sundance and his trusty group do their jobs better than any other, keep us safe from the lies of the MSM and educate us like no other in my opinion. He not only sees the forest but sees the mountains far, far away that most bloggers haven’t a clue about.
“So, I if can engage/enlighten/awaken even just 1 or 2 people, I fell I have helped our cause.”
And that is how it begins. One person tells another the real truth and then another and then another….
Now we hear the 1812 overture loud and clear and know what it really means.
Isn’t it funny how we have “the most free and prosperous” nation on earth…and foreigners come into it and start trying to boss us around? Laugh in their face. They know, we know.
Where did this person come from?

Oh.
“Vashisth” hmmm. If I say it without thinking, it sounds like, “Fascist”. Am I missing something?
You too huh?
With a lisp
Dear Ms. Vasthisthly,
In regards to question #3:
3- Why doesn’t the site disclose its ownership or provide any information about its editorial leadership?
Who cares who owns this site? The vast wealth of information/education contained within this site is backed up/linked to the sources of information for anyone who wishes to read and learn, including yourself.
Why should this site disclose any ownership or editorial leadership information??!
Our own dishonest elected Gov. is led around by the nose by unelected, undisclosed, and faceless leadership.
Sadly, the average legal American voter has no clue who’s running the country.
Surely you and I both know it is not senile FJB, nor is it his former babysitter who grew up and was promoted to the spot vacated by a conveniently timed deceased wife.
I suggest you embrace the suck and go rattle another tree.
God bless and thank you, Sundance, for all that you endure! You. Are. The. Best! ❤️
Sincerely,
Kate~
who owns her site?
inquiring minds want to know.
And, why should we disclose ownership to her?
What makes her think she’s so special?
At some point she’ll learn that she’s just a single frog in a very large
pond.
Go pound salt!
“They” care, because of this Rule for Radicals.
“Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
Could be the equivalent of a quarterback sack.
“The vast wealth of information/education contained within this site is backed up/linked to the sources of information for anyone who wishes to read and learn”
That IS the key. And if on any given day, even part of the writings are just a “theory”, it is usually proven right (or close) down the road (sometimes years later, but I digress).
Communists need to know who owns things so they will know where to confiscate stuff when they Liquidate the Kulaks.
Unlike the average Russian peasant, we Americans sho ot back. A lot.
“Vashisth” sounds like “Fascist”
With a lithsp
Great response to a bunch of stinking commies. Newsguard? Please.
Who funds Newsguard?
Who does the Vascist really work for? Who the hell pays good money for idiots to “police” the news?
Bravo, Sundance! Proud to be a member of the Treehouse family!!!!!!! Wolverines!!!!!!!
Sounds like the treehouse may be on double secret probation.
I don’t know if this makes sense, but #3….something like,
Ok Sundance, where’d you bury the gold? We need to know to better protect you, or something. Words are weapons for these poltroons.
Great advice, Sundance. I would add just one item to your list – learn a martial art or other warrior skill.
Not one for words.
We are fighting them to the death. I fully intend to offend them along the way.
I can see the meme now.
The scene is where FJB is telling the worker “I don’t work for you” with CTH covering FJB’s face and the worker having newsguard covering his face.
“NewsGuard”? How Orwellian.
ayyy zeee NUUUthinnn
Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.
Blaise Pascal
Embrace Musk at your own peril. Fairy Tales are entertaining.
He would not be where he is without connection to the state apparatus. It would not be allowed.
Yep. Thinking the same thing. As Sundance explained, X would not be alive today if truth be told. So what is his gig?
I get a headache from the PSYOPS.
The Streisand effect
The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information. The effect is named for American singer and actress Barbra Streisand, whose attorney’s attempt in 2003 to suppress the publication of a photograph showing her clifftop residence in Malibu, taken to document coastal erosion in California, inadvertently drew far greater attention to the previously obscure photograph.
The effect exemplifies psychological reactance: where the desire to hide information instead makes its propagation more likely.
And thus was born TMZ.
Foreigners come here for the economy, and take the economic freedom for granted. They think they can implement the same political systems as the poor and corrupt place they came from, and still be prosperous and free.
Indians are some of the most racist people I have ever encountered.
As bad as these sites that try and label dis and mis information. I believe they are trying hard to keep their brainwashed viewers from reading any independent conservative sights. They don’t want them to realize the MSM that they promote lies daily to their viewers.
Their biggest lies this year – FJB is fine and why weren’t we informed FJB is not fine…We Are Shocked by his debate performance. It reminds me of all those doctors baffled about young athletes Sudden Deaths.
They are really brainwashing the democrats. I watched a left leaning gardener rant last night about Trump deporting African American US citizens. He was trying to scare his base into voting for Democrats. I said you all will be starving from democrat socialist/ communist policy long before anyone would ever think twice about the nonsense you speak of. Then he goes on to say how nothing makes sense anymore, well no Sh!t sherlock you all keep voting for idiots who are harming our wellbeing as a country.
Nikita? Nutrition Label? I had to re-read to make sure this wasn’t a hilarious parody. Still not 100% certain.
Wasn’t Nikita, Kruschev’s first name? Regardless of gender, your response is priceless!
“Lastly, do I need a speech impediment to pronounce “Vashisth”? 😂”
Dude, you’re killin’ it!!!!!
Made me chuckle.
#6. Have you stopped beating your wife?
We do not respond to trolls.
Prager U is going after Newsguard.
Having another of those “Absence of Malice” Mafia Don reading the newspaper laughing moments again.
Bless you.
Hell Yeah!
So they use same AI that we fund via our retirement portfolios to find and target us in the vast sea of information? Asking for a friend.
The good news on this front is that Nikita and his/her staff had to comb through every one of your articles to find those two examples they don’t like. Perhaps he/she/they learned some valuable truths by reading your work!!
Someone please explain the difference between “may use deadly force only when necessary.” and “use deadly force when necessary” !!! And additionally, “when the officer has a reasonable belief that the subject of such force poses an imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the officer or to another person.” sure does give any of the armed officers a lot of discretion to exercise this “standard” order, based on their individual fears, inclinations, and indoctrination. There was nothing “standard” about this raid!
Yes a distinction without a difference
For an entity interested in asking questions Newsguard sure has a quick opinion ready.
Newsguard should find a few nice sanddunes to punch.
Nutition Label for the internet hah. Why dont they disclose what is on their own nutrition label funding wise.
I wouldn’t worry about it.
The entire operation will be confiscated under the sedition and “trading with the enemy” chapters of the US Code.
When I was a kid, my grandma had all the tabloids found at grocery store checkouts with outrageously bizarre cover stories. There was no such thing as mis-dis-mal information then. The free market and our own brains decided what we bought and what we thought. Times sure have changed.
Yeah I miss me those old “Hillary having an affair with a space alien” covers from the World Weekly News.
The people who run, sit on the board, and started Newsguard are all alphabet agency people. Mike Moore covered this when it started. The Beanie used it to ensure he was unbiased for his Tim Cast.
Just like the prop or not people.
Just a note on the form and grammer of Newsguards writing, I think it might be an AI bot or a head fake, someone pretending to be of newsguard.
I go mainly by the shortening such as “you are” => “you’re” which I personally rarely see used in formal inquiries.
Expected: For full disclosure this … (formal)
Given: Just so that you’re aware this… (informal)
Someone in such a pertribed postion should be able to formulate herself better. Or she should buy a copy of grammarly.
“Pertribed”?
Definition please.
Couldn’t find it in my Oxford English Dictionary. No definition between pertransition and pertrouble.
I was actually looking forward to looking up a new and abstruse word.
Its the conflation between purported and contrived
What were some of the comments to that pinned tweet? Radio of agree/disagree?
Any community notes?

They would love to girdle the tree house..
Just their name,ugh…
They want to sound ominous..
Who in their right mind wants a newsguard?
Brings to mind that seen in Wizard of OZ.at the witches fortress,with the flying monkeys,,,:-)
We know how that all ended.
“Who in their right mind wants a newsguard?”
Sundance…
I have NO words.
I can’t even catch my breath since reading your absolutely brilliant responses!!!
I haven’t LAUGHED this much in ages!!!!
You are not just the steward for us here at the treehouse… you were meant for so much more.
And EVERYONE knows it, my friend.
As one of Our Fathers Finest Warriors, YOU were Chosen. Your way has been guided, and you have been are divinely protected, so you may deliver His message to anyone willing to listen…
And, thanks to your incredible wit, every now and then, we get to LAUGH OUR ARSES OFF, too!!!
Amen!
BTW: Which content did Musk retweet?
Elon Musk slams leftist rating group NewsGuard as ‘scam’ that ‘should be disbanded immediately’
Musk responded to a post on X, formerly Twitter, by a former Trump State Department official who pointed to the connection between NewsGuard and the European Union’s new ‘disinformation code,’ the Digital Services Act.

NewsGuard Adviser Michael Hayden Calls for Sen. Tommy Tuberville to Be ‘Removed’ from the Human Race
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/10/10/former-cia-nsa-director-gen-michael-hayden-calls-for-sen-tuberville-to-be-removed-from-human-race/
In woke up at 3 am this morning from a dream so clear and startling that I realized that my entire life has been a tragic stream of mistakes and worse decisions. So I prayed about it and have fully come to the conclusion that it is in my best interests to vote for Joe malarkey and just accept that he represents all the good things possible for America and the entire world.
you believe that right…? that I had this kind of terrible dream and then prayed and changed my mind?
see…that’s the thing about pyops. you can really take it too far. it becomes untenable, unbelievable…a figure so abstract and void of any credibility that you regard it nonsense. malarkey.
I pose there is MORE than just information in this world. The means to differentiate I agree with. But lets all be quite clear on a certain reality:
human beings are being assaulted daily with the most evil vomit of ideas. ideas and suggestions and purposefully manufactured to cause YOU TO LOSE YOUR ABILITY TO THINK CLEARLY ON THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES.
that isn’t just information…it is psychological operations specifically designed to HARM YOU. to steal from you…to make you question and doubt your ability to understand what is black and white.
we are facing a great enemy. we cannot possible assume they are participating equally and fairly. To win this war between right and wrong, we must be willing to state unequivocally what information is wrong and who is designing and for what purpose. We can be efficient in this process: we can call them Corruptors.
God Bless America
