I’m going to just drop some analysis and research material quickly because the previously sparse pixels are rapidly collating into a visible picture.
Many people are well aware of that the Dept of Homeland Security, (DHS – part of the domestic Intelligence Community structure), previously triggered a myriad of activities and actions to control the online speech of Americans.
Factually, despite the previous understandings about Big Tech deplatforming, demonetization, shadow banning and censorship, it took the Twitter-File revelations to put actual context to what the FBI, DHS, CISA and various domestic intelligence communities were doing.
Immediately everyone saw how Big Tech via Twitter, Google, Instagram, Facebook, etc were using every resource to control information sharing and shut down speech. In the bigger picture this can be looked at as an effort to control online communication.
Controlling online communication is not only about the content of the voice (under the guise of dis-mis-malinformation), but also about controlling the visibility of the scale of voices who agree. Ultimately, it’s like an ideologically like-minded crowd in a stadium, if you can stop them at the entry points the stadium looks sparse as the crowd is forcibly turned away. You don’t know that your opinion is held by tens of millions of people who think exactly the same way you do.
This is why I have continually pointed out that WE ARE IN THE MAJORITY, they just control the platforms that give us the online impression of size.
There is a difference between ‘the real world’, and the ‘online world’. Tens-of-thousands of attendees to numerous and frequent Donald Trump rallies are a visual demonstration of scale, while dozens or hundreds attended the same for Joe Biden. There are other examples like random site-specific polls (non-media influenced), spontaneous assemblies, boat parades, etc. In every ‘real world’ example, the ordinary American electorate visibly dominate the scope of support.
However, part of voting fraud is presenting the optic of support for the candidate who benefits from fraudulent ballot collection. The extra ballots must be believable, or there can be a problem. It is within this “online dynamic” that control, censorship and every mechanism within the arsenal of social media big tech is deployed. This is a critical aspect to truly understand.
In the years leading up to this 2024 election, we have watched closely as every pathway for online voices has been shaped, changed and in some cases eliminated. One example is very close to home here at CTH, where Google has said -directly- the content within the comment section is the justification for their demonetization. If The Conservative Treehouse does not shut down comments, Google Ads (controlling 75% of all online revenue) will NOT be permitted. ¹The goal is to shut down the conversation.
Let that sink in for a moment if you didn’t already. It’s not the content of the website that generates the censorship, it is the CONVERSATION in the comment section that Google is concerned about. Take that example as an empirical datapoint and then extend it. Now you understand why the comment sections in various platforms have been removed, and even worse the 3rd-party software plug in (like Disquis) is heavily controlled and moderated.
What big tech has been doing is funneling everyone into the social media platforms in order to have their online conversations about current events, news etc. If you espouse an opinion that may be popular yet is against the interests of those who are controlling the political space, your content is removed (Ex. Facebook, Insta, etc.), and/or your ability to speak is removed.
If they can funnel everyone into a place where conversation is controlled, then people cannot grasp the scale of the like-minded assembly. That’s the feature of their control.
The need for control is a reaction to fear, and what the IC (big tech) fear most is that online we repeat what historically was seen in the Polish Solidarity Movement. When millions of people took to the streets to see Pope John Paul II, they suddenly realized they were the majority, and the representatives of government were the minority. In only a few months thereafter, everything changed.
Remember, this online speech and assembly control through social media and Big Tech was the impetus for the Dept of State strategy during the Arab Spring. Fast forward 15 years later and every mechanism of the domestic IC through social media is being deployed to see a message of alignment for Kamala Harris. You are watching it play out right now, in real time.
The bottom line is this…. Understand how the domestic IC is operating to control the gates to the stadium, then think like an insurgent and keep communicating to the majority. We are in an abusive relationship with government; there is absolutely no doubt of the parallel. The abuser doesn’t want the abused to visit her/his family, because that might generate a dangerous awakening, a realization, within her/him.
From my perspective, this is the core issue in this 2024 election. If we can highlight the smallness of the Harris/Kelly support network, then James Clyburn will have a really tough time trying to convince people that 81 million voted for Kamala like Biden. The enemy we face will use every online tool in their arsenal to make sure the majority do not realize they are in the majority. REMEMBER THIS!
Think about what you see, hear and view through this prism of clarity. Everything around you is being controlled to manufacture an outcome that is totally disconnected from reality. When you understand this, you understand the importance of being loud and proud. You understand you must ignore the control mechanisms, setting your fears aside and stating openly what you believe. In short, quit pretending.

Kamala Harris was the border Czar, Donald Trump was shot in the ear with a bullet, Joe Biden has dementia, Derek Chauvin didn’t murder George Floyd, Donald Trump didn’t collude with Russia, Brett Kavanaugh wasn’t a gang rapist, Jussie Smollett isn’t the victim of a hate crime, Hunter Biden’s laptop wasn’t Russian disinformation, COVID didn’t originate in a wet market, Joe Biden didn’t get 81 million legal votes, J6 wasn’t an insurrection, mRNA vaccines don’t stop the spread, Putin didn’t blow up Nord Stream Pipeline, and men can’t get pregnant.
Does the 2024 Big Tech goal give us a different perspective on why TikTok is considered a “threat to democracy?”
Remember, violence supported by the IC is considered speech, (see Antifa). Meanwhile, speech that is against the interests of the IC is considered violence.
More to follow.
Trump Rally – Charlotte, North Carolina, 7/24/24
¹I told them to f**k off.
I don’t know any other site that consistently digs deeper than SD and actually finds information treasures to pass on.
X definitely censors but it’s sporadic to try and cover up the deletions and censorship. I suspect Musk is not aware of it? My “nobody” account receives replies on a small scale of course but then days will go by before a reply.
My “nobody” account is not evidence but Catturd, James Woods and several other accounts have suddenly lost thousands of followers and other actions. Revolving pro Dem censors in the X system?
IC government censors.
Good point.
use an ad blocker on zerohedge.com, you’ll see very enlightening comments
unz.com has other unorthodoxies
Thanks ww.
zerohedge comments are renowned for being much better than the stories (which are all just reposts of news from elsewhere)
zerohedge convinced me early on to avoid the Covid vaxxinations. if you create an account there, you can block annoying people and self-curate commenters – it’s the best feature of their commenting system.
unz.com is like an intelligent form of infowars – usually proven correct over time, but not as insane.
Ron Unz is jewish, but many consider him antisemitic – I don’t.
just my 2¢ worth
I looked at that website….it seems insulting to me. Am I missing something?
No…seemed insulting to me too.
Insulting to whom? Like a particular target? They are very direct, which I like.
I got turned on to ZH right after they started up, and I found interesting news there that would be covered up on other websites, and the comments were great! I still love it, altho it attracts a lot of Joo-haters. I just block them.
Zerohedge comments have gone downhill in the last few years. Lots of nasty comments. I rarely read the comments there anymore, but I check their headlines throughout the day. I found CTH through Zerohedge.
I believe the accounts dropped, were deemed to be “bots”
I have a small account and get on average 10 a week.
Thanks.
And EXACTLY one month ago the Supreme Court ruled in Murthy v. Missouri to allow government to pressure social media companies to censor information to the American people.
They ruled to remand it back to the trial court.
It was temporary measure.
Shame on the Supreme Court.
Kamala may not be a BRAT…
But she’s definitely the WURST 🙂
Very punny!
Thanks, All in 4…
I spent a lot of time studying puns in college…
The Professors said I was a regular lab brat 🙂
😅😅
Wordman, you never disappoint!
Thanks, but, I’ve had my limit on schnitzengruben.
Bitte, baby.
Love this. I want a “word man summer” 😎
But, she IS a BRAT, nd the WURST kind of a BRAT!
😂😂😂
Oh so fine, sir!
May I present you with a pun-laden prize of clever literary tomes:

She is really a strumpet 😏

It definitely fits.
Coming from Michigan, I thank you for this article, essay.
Michigan is a beautiful state except for gretchen whitmer. It’s a shame it has such a dictatorial governor. JMHO
Harris/Kelly? Wow. Bad choice!
They will use Kelly as cover to give Arizona to the dems again.
^^^^^THIS^^^^^
I don’t think it’s an official announcement yet but seems like a pretty foregone conclusion. I guess Kelly was the one BHO wanted for the top of the ticket but someone, most likely Jill, sent out the second tweet, passing the torch to Kamala and put a monkey wrench in everyone’s plans! If so, it’s the only thing she’s ever done that I halfway appreciate!
Still holding out hope that Harris is dumb enough to pick Buttigeig as her VP. That would guarantee Donald Trump at least 45 states, IMHO!
P Trump should highlight this election as a choice between–“Reality and a Democrat/Hollywood/MSM Production.”
Maybe not quite as detailed as my vision below but something similar?
The “Kamala Harris for President” production will literally require Screenwriters to develop a grand political vision for 4 months and most importantly, the carefully scripted dialogue for star Kamala and the lap dog MSM; acting coaches; a steady stream of known actors to endorse and to perform on the political stage; Executive Producers (Obamas?) to be the liaison between donor PAC’s and the Director, the assistant directors, production managers and so on that will actually create and complete the “Kamala” production.
Like any Hollywood production it will also require set designers and building crews, costume designers, make-up artists, hairstylists and possibly even the best indoor camera operators and cinematographers for Kamala’s outdoor performances. Will this Kamala production be a Blockbuster or a Flop? I hope the latter.

Here is one that is actually she, her, brat summer
Don’t have the twitter but I bet it is priceless. Her linked in is.
For comparative consideration as aspects of social media are explored….for those missing the point about what huge platforms can do…and aspects of conversation that can be shut down….
My comments about the abusive domestic relationship within interpersonal relationships….:
The abuser isolates the abused…away from family and friends….can’t visit…also cannot go to school, grocery store, church…you name it….
I could go on but all y’all understand…
The abuser keeps the abused partner broke, unable to work…and restricts access to money thereby holding them hostage.
The abuser’s temper is feared and the abused “walks on eggshells”…in fear of causing an explosive/physically violent outburst.
The abused must have the same beliefs as the abuser.
There is no privacy in an abusive relationship….email, snail mail, telephone calls, text messages…the abused can be stalked.
Does any of this look familiar? Inflation, stagflation, unemployment, high interest rates, gas too high, can’t have a gas stove, the EV attempted mandate…pronouns, gender dysphoria, schools keeping secrets from parents about their children…shutting down our petroleum industry (drill baby drill)…I could go on and on….
Sounds like Communism.
Brilliant assessment!
At this point pumping up the volume and voting seem to be our remaining tools as this article suggests or confirms that the RNC has done little or squat to purge battle ground voter rolls of fraud before those ballots go out. Sad.
they still believe we can vote our way out of this. I doubt they want to win. I’m not impressed with the new leadership
They don’t understand the nuts and bolts of BALLOTS vs VOTES
And anyone who’s focus is on the RNC, and Chair position, does not understand the power dynamics of political parties.
I think we get a great education here, but I’d be interested in the particular power dynamic you’re referencing?
“Kamala Harris was the border Czar, Donald Trump was shot in the ear with a bullet, Joe Biden has dementia, Derek Chauvin didn’t murder George Floyd, Donald Trump didn’t collude with Russia, Brett Kavanaugh wasn’t a gang rapist, Jussie Smollett isn’t the victim of a hate crime, Hunter Biden’s laptop wasn’t Russian disinformation, COVID didn’t originate in a wet market, Joe Biden didn’t get 81 million legal votes, J6 wasn’t an insurrection, mRNA vaccines don’t stop the spread, Putin didn’t blow up Nord Stream Pipeline, and men can’t get pregnant.”
Put this on a T-Shirt with a CTH logo and I will purchase one or two…. And Proudly wear them.
Or make a yard sign and start with, In this house we believe… And then make each sentence red, white, or blue.
Conservative yard signs are vandalized and stolen in my neighborhood.
boobytrap them
Another truthful website is Techno Fog, recently “Can the Democrats sell Kamala Harris?” Great read!
(1) I told them to f**k off.
Sundance… I love you man.
I’m seeing this whole dynamic play out now on Reddit. It used to be an open platform. As soon as r/TheDonald started making noise, the leftists began to organize. It’s become an insufferable progressive echo chamber, with virtually all of the major subreddits moderated by a handful of “power mods” who are all rabidly, virtulently left and disproportionately gay/trans. My feed is now populated with all these random subreddits that no algorithm should be feeding me (eg. R/Nashville – a city I have zero connection to) with a barage of stories about how great Kamala Harris is. Or about six neo-not-sees throwing a protest.) It’s an onslaught of Lefitst agitprop. Christian pastors getting arrested for child porn. Etc.
They’re creating a false echo chamber. It’s the same thing if I pull up the main page on Bing. A steady stream of anti-republican articles from places like msnbc, Salon, The Atlantic, WaPo, etc.
I would love to know what the real proportion of Left/Right is in this country. But I have a strong suspicion it isn’t 53/47
The thing is the MSM wasn’t completely propaganda, omissions, and controls what would the left/right proportion look like?
Like what if even 50% of the media had some integrity.
SMFH,..
Before the 17th Amendment, U.S. Senators were appointed by the State Legislatures, and could be recalled at will by the State legislatures.
Typically, as each State gets two Senators, and ALMOST (all but one, IIRC) State legislatures are bi-cameral (with a House and Senate) each would vote for and so appoint one U.S. Senator, i.e. one by the State Senate, one by the State House.
If we assume a R majority State Senate or House would appoint a R to the U.S. Senate, and a D a D, and if we did not have the 17th A, the makeup of the current U.S. Senate would be around 34D, 66R. which you’ll notice theoretically makes the “filibuster rule” irrelevant.
Given that voter registrations, opinion polls and about any other way to try to detirmine “the real proportion of left and right in this country” has been totally corrupted, I think this is probably the best metric available.
Note also that it is highly likely there are true MAGA’s in our State Legislatures, and highly UNlikely their are any in the U.S. Congress, Senate or House.
I do love Andy Biggs.
Our commonality is their demise.
We are the “VAST” majority, really put our foot down at this dumb sh_it ends.
Kamala has an annoying voice and manner. She will wear old soon.
Like the Arizona governor?
Airhead-puppets, both.
Joe had dementia when he was installed …took 3.5 years to “wear old” enough.
The Obama Factor
We stand on the crossroads of history, we can make the right choices, and meet the challenges that face us . . . Out of this long political darkness a brighter day will come.
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/07/the-obama-factor-20-years-later.php
The “polls” are also not showing the vote for Kennedy which when added shows a landslide for Trump. Shaping perception that it’s “close.”
Time for a new T Shirt
“Kamala Harris was the border Czar, Donald Trump was shot in the ear with a bullet, Joe Biden has dementia, Derek Chauvin didn’t murder George Floyd, Donald Trump didn’t collude with Russia, Brett Kavanaugh wasn’t a gang rapist, Jussie Smollett isn’t the victim of a hate crime, Hunter Biden’s laptop wasn’t Russian disinformation, COVID didn’t originate in a wet market, Joe Biden didn’t get 81 million legal votes, J6 wasn’t an insurrection, mRNA vaccines don’t stop the spread, Putin didn’t blow up Nord Stream Pipeline, and men can’t get pregnant.”
I agree.
And this is why CBDC’s and medical/vaccination passports and the like MUST NOT be allowed to be instituted, ever!
They don’t just want to shut down content, they want to shut us down – permanently
PDJT speaking now,carried on RSBN. Took off his bandage….
Turning point action rally. West Palm Beach.
TPUSA faith believer’s summit – Trump is speaking now. Screw anti-social media. Make independent thought great again.
What does the BRAT mean?
short answer: Slut.
Tyshab, on page 1, posted this link:
https://thehill.com/homenews/4788789-why-is-the-internet-calling-kamala-harris-brat/
And that is why they want Trump not do BIG outdoor rally’s.
This makes an awful lot of sense.
I remember when the ‘comments section’ on many sites were no longer available. It didn’t matter if the sites leaned Left or Right; were independent sites or major news sites. Suddenly, and seemingly all at once — Poof! — no more commenting allowed.
I wish I could remember the exact timeframe when that occurred, but my guess is around the time that Obama began campaigning for President.
I’ve always thought the comments were no longer available because they were getting rather ‘heated’.
But, Sundance’s explanation is much more likely the correct one.
The Federalist was one of the first truly blatant cases.
I’ve had a good rais’in, anything to the contrary is a lie at best…
Big Mike will be nominated at the DNC convention. This is my humble opinion. God bless all Treepers. Stay safe.

I LOVE YOU, SUNDANCE!!
Always MAGA 👊👊❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Speaking of rallies, Trump is going back to Butler. The man never ceases to amaze me. I can only imagine the size of the crowd that will go and support him. DS has to be sploding w/in.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/07/trump-announces-he-will-hold-second-rally-butler/
When people used to joke about Bill Clinton or Obama projecting a “reality distortion field” around themselves they were NOT joking.
Did anyone see how the DOJ just settled with Strzok and Page for 2 mil+?.
Is this a signal to Trump.
Remember the ” insurance ” plan and ” We won’t let him”
And it links back to the Hoax
Is it a threat to not release the Russian Collusion Hoax documents or we won’t miss the next time.
Or that we will make sure the perpetrator is rewarded.

Minds.com is an interesting platform. All encrypted…
Good stuff.
Has anyone ever read through the comments sections of on line comics? The trolls are very active. At Go Comics and Comics Kingdom it’s usually a handful of trolls that dominate the rhetoric.
Just read classic Wizard of Id and comment on how the topics in the 70s strips / arcs mirror today’s world. Wham you’ll get blasted to heck.
Where are the boat and truck parades??
Florida. And all across America.
I think people are hurting for extra gas & diesel money in my rapidly disappearing Old Florida Refuge as of right now..
The propaganda is everywhere. Even person to person. One of my colleagues who attends the DNC every 4 years was down in the mouth after the debate between Biden and Trump. Admitting to me that Trump was going to win. Then the other day after Kamel Toes was announced, he writes me this rosy text message about ‘now we have Kamela and its all looking very good”. Of course with no substance to back up the claim. Its psychological warfare and I think that many of these goons actually believe this stuff. It’s all a Potemkin Village and falls apart if those on the outside laugh and point fingers at it. They can’t stand ridicule.
The goal is to shut down the conversation and restrict communication to the official narrative:
BTW – that was the card Peter Doocy found and confronted KJP about today
A complete 180 from reality.
Shameless, but expected from the Derps.
Question is, how to convince fence sitters of another complete conjob?
All Kamasutra did was set up the Midnight Run flights to Florida cities! Holee Mackerel!
The 5 Billion was probably from $oros(us taxpayer) to set up the travel agency kiosks in the Triangle countries so those flown in Country at 3 am weren’t ” Border Crossers”!!!
“I told them to f**k off.”
We treepers truly thank you for that Sundance.
This is why I gave up on Facebook a long time ago. I was constantly in FB jail for simply posting facts. I was tired of posting in code so I didn’t get thrown in “jail”. Now I only post here and on Truth Social because they are the only places with free speech.
Is it true that the SS no longer will provide security for open-air rallies? That would reduce the size of crowds.
They recommended no more outdoor rallies.
They cannot unilaterally decide not to provide security to a President, former President or nominee.
Ostensibly.
So what exactly is the remedy for this? If you post comments the leftist sites don’t like they suppress it.
I firmly believe Obama is gonna sand bag Camel a. Just like he didn’t turn on the machine for Hillary. He’s to vein. He can’t let her get more popular.
He would rather chance Trump in the driver seat while he Fs ish up behind the scenes for four years rather than let a more monumental election happen while he’s alive. A woman of color dwarfs a black man (half….maybe) becoming president. Because at the end of the day, lefties are more racist and sexist than any conservative by a wide margin.
Truly wonderful article, Sundance! This is a great thing to emphasize and implement.
And thanks for telling Google to f*&k off!
God Bless you Sundance! Money is so tight now, I am barely hanging on. But as soon as things get better, I will start donating regularly. Thank you for all that you do!
Team Trump
@TeamTrump
As a Senator, Harris was ranked the #1 most far-left Democrat in the entire Senate.
She makes Bernie look like a moderate. She supports…
🚩 Free government healthcare for illegal aliens
🚩 Abolishing ICE
🚩 Decriminalizing illegal immigration
🚩 Mass amnesty for illegals
🚩 Banning fracking
🚩 Outlawing private health insurance
🚩 Defunding the police
🚩 Forcibly ripping guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens
…and as Vice President,
she even cast the tie-breaking vote
to cut Medicare by $237 billion dollars.
No more redmeat..
I’m hopeful when I see musicians that get it. I think we’re slowly awakening. Hopefully it occurs before we’re replaced.
This is called Cognitive Dissident.

Don’t forget about T-Mobile censoring websites and not allowing links to be sent. I tried sending a link to a buddy today, a bitchute video about 9/11, and he was not permitted to open the link. Said the same thing happens if he search’s gun info.
The Signal app might be worth a try for sending links and all with less direct interference.
I would not rely on the default web browser that is installed on the device. I have had more reasonable results with Brave for what it is worth.
On my website I make comments and they are the only comments.
I say what I want to.
If I put these comments on facebook Or other places I would be censored because I speak the truth and have my own thoughts i write.
If no one reads what a say it is less important to me than being able to say what I want to say with no censorship.
Information has always been manipulated if it is the truth that someone doesn’t want others to know.
I want to read others comments especially if I think it mskes sense and is good information.
To me the conservative tree house is the best place I know to find useful information that is worth reading.
Its unique bulletin board for free speech.
The government doesn’t want you to know too much and certainly doesn’t want you to inform others of a truth.
We are not blocked at the stadium doors of free speech at the cth stadium.
We go inside, walk up to the comment podium and speak what we want to say.
Its a freedom of speech stadium where we also are under threat from a corrupt government.
We will continue to fight, fight, fight.
I left FB over 10 years ago and I can no longer comment on Yahoo (read only). I don’t miss any of them.
Same here. Very very few sites allow people to comment. I have been banned from local news sire in the Philly area and have been banned from Disqus for over 3 years now. Someone didn’t like a comment I made in response to a troll and that person went back and flagged every single comment I ever made! I was antically supposed to have a two week “time out” Good thing I wasn’t holding my breath, LOL.
I was suspended by Fakebook for putting “Deplorable” in my name back in fall 2016 right after Hitlery called all of us Trump supporters that. I am more Deplorable than ever and proud of it!
Interesting that they suspended you for using the word their queen gave you.
And there is no time limit, like the school board or a city council meeting, when they could care less what you have to say anyway. All they are doing is waiting until they can say, Your time is up.
