THE GAME PLAN
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it.
He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough.
They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it.
You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
Game on.

I pray for President Trump and his team to bring justice to all who have been lost to or damaged by the damnable covid injections.
It’s now become more personal than ever for me, as a close and much loved family member, who was among the force-vaxed, has just undergone cranial surgery due to apparent brain cancer.
It feels like it just can’t be real. And yet….
He’s so young. He’s my only grandchild.
Please pray for him.
Horrible outcome😢
Praying Ma🙏
Prayers for your Grandson🙏🙏to be healed…
Praying for your loved one🙏🙏🙏God bless 🙏🙏🙏
I made sure to get our California Senator on the record when truth exposed leads to justice on those that had a duty to be vigilant and prevent the carnage but chose to turn a blind eye.
Who signed this letter? I assume the Senator knows how to spell his own name? Or is that even asking too much of a Democrat Senator? The signature is missing an i and an a.
So his real name is Alex Piddl(e)? Noted.
I am so sorry to read this, Ma. I can’t imagine the unbearable pain the family is experiencing. Prayers for you and your family.
I understand that Ivermectin plus Fenbendazole is supposed to be a promising treatment. Maybe “right to try” could offer you some hope.
If that is true, then it seems to indicate that cancer is a parasite.
If that is true, there is no way that someone, somewhere did not notice that before.
There was a German scientist (can’t remember the name) that discovered it back in the ’50’s or ’40’s.
He took a blood sample, heated it, and discovered that the parasites recovered after the blood cells were destroyed; referred to them as ‘micro-parasites’.
If true, that means that natural cancer cures already exist and that they are being withheld from the public; there’s just too much money being made on the cancer ‘research’ and treatment grift in the medical industry.
God help them when the public finds out.
found the video that refers to it:
Cancer is one of the oldest things on the planet, and is only the worlds second biggest killer.
The biggest killer is Cardiovascular disease caused mostly by obesity.
Ivermectin does much more than help with parasites. Do some real research (don’t rely on google’s censored results).
https://x.com/MakisMD?t=9iTP-t-cU3BquVYQrIJXTg&s=03
Here is a link to Dr. Makis, an oncologist who has treated many of his patients w this treatment protocol. His contact email is makisw79@yahoo
Have met some of his recovered patients recently and attended his lectures. He has offered to work w the Trump administration and RFK team. One of our Alberta doctors who were (and still are) persecuted for not advocating the covid poke.
Again, prayers for your grandson♡♡♡
🙏💕
Ivermectin a cure for cancer? Great news but that is another drug we don’t make in this country. I had to order mine from India via a medical doctor in Canada. My doctors refuse to prescribe it for me for Covid. Likely will bethe same case for cancer.
Ivermectin worked for me both times I got Covid. Mild symptoms both times except a sore throat for four days the first time. Never took any shots. Worked and shopped in public throughout the “pandemic” except during the week of each covid attack. I used to take a yearly flu shot but not since 2019. I do not trust the government or medical hierarchy to slip in a covid “vaccine”. I would not accept a blood transfusion unless it was a life or death situation. Blood is not sampled for prior vaccine exposure. At least this is what I was told by my doctor.
If you should ever have scheduled surgery, donate your own…autologous. Fairly easy, straight forward process to use your own blood should it be needed during surgery.
Doctor’s office facilitates with Red Cross…family member went through this twice with no hiccups.
Unless you are wheeled into the ER with gunshot wounds, receiving blood transfusions is usually *not* a life or death situation.
My mother (going strong in her 90’s and sharp as a tack) has always been at odds with doctors who urged her to accept blood transfusions after various surgeries. She has always refused, insisting that her red cell count bounces back on its own after a couple of days. And it always does.
Good point. I recommend that people consult the frontline doctors who *knew* all along what needs to be done to fight the adverse effects of Covid-19 *and* mRNA injections.
Do *not* consult the same “managed care” doctors who continue to give mRNA injections and tow that line, because they remain on a hamster wheel of groupthink and cannot seem to wean themselves -or their patients-off that FAILED business model.

Praying Romans 8:34 for the Lord to intercede and heal your grandchild
Romans 8:34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
I am praying for you too Ma. If you would like to share his first name I will write it in our book of prayer when SC prayer Warriors, a group of twelve women, meet on Wednesdays and we will pray extemporaneously the rest of the week.
Have you looked into the Tippen Protocol using fenbendazole?
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy
Prayers up.
Wow! Prayers up for your grandson.
Ma…can you share his first name? God knows who he is but would like to add his name (first or even nickname)?
Ma McGriz,
Praying for your grandson.
May the Lord’s great mercy and his healing infuse him and guide the hands and minds of his medical providers. May your grandson be a miracle and testimony to God’s Greatness.
May we never stop praying, glorifying, and pointing others to The One Who Holds all of us in His Righteous Hands. He captures every one of our tears and hears every prayer.
It Is our God Who reigns and none will escape the actions which have harmed another. God Will have His Righteous judgement and we who love Him will have Eternity in perfection with Him under His Care.
In Jesus’s Holy and Saving Name, AMEN
Prayers from this Canadian branch.🙏🏻
Praying for your grandson, Ma McGriz, and for your family. I’m so sorry you all are having to go through this. 🙏🙏🙏
Mighty currents of God’s healing love flow through your grandson now, renewing and restoring every fiber of his being. He is whole well and free.
We pray this in the name and through the power of Jesus Christ amen.
Ma, lifting your Grandson, you and your family up in prayer.
Lord, we pray for healing for this young life.
We aski it in Jesus’ name, Amen.
AMEN
AMEN
I will pray for your dear grandson ma’am.
It’s happened to a lot of us, ma, so we understand how devastating it can be. I will pray for a good outcome from the surgery.
Oh, dear Ma, that is heartbreaking for you and your family. Absolutely will pray for him for healing and cure, and for all his loved ones.
Is this true?

Great, one of three souls on board and one of two pilots identified.
Now do the purportedly female pilot.
You should repost your excellent comment about the Tranny’s being a created army of terrorists against normals
I just summarized it on the last page when I complemented your excellent use of the term Janissaries to describe them
I see, slainte.
Yes it’s true! I’ve lived in that area of Northeast Philadelphia my whole life until I moved to Bucks County a few years ago. 6 people onboard including a little girl who just received treatment at Shriners Children’s Hospital. Houses and cars were on fire. Gas lines on fire. Debris everywhere. Looked like a war zone.
How peculiar.
We’ll see if the trend continues with places named after Garfield, Lincoln, Harding or JFK.
It’s quite a coincidence but very obscure the casual observer.
A Mexican company, Mexican registered Learjet 55. They had a four fatality accident in November 2023 with same type, also ambulance flight. Seemingly the pilot landed to far down the runway and overran. Philadelphia accident Learjet were manufactured in 1980. The company spokesperson said the plane was bound for, forgot the name but, Mexico. Planned stopover in Springfield “technical”.

Good.
One of the more honest geopolitical analysts in the podcast universe in his first segment of today’s episode explains the upshot from a recent Rubio interview which the MSM aren’t, naturally, covering. Basically, that the Trump Administration now admits the unipolar moment applying in geopolitics since the fall of the USSR in 1991, up till today, is now over, and that the world, and the US, has now to adjust to the fact there are multiple superpowers in play on the world stage, each with their own interests. This is the most significant shift in US foreign policy for decades, and signals Trump is a realist, not an idealist, with all the implications that brings.

Does anyone have any solid info on when, how and why these men were taken hostage? Was their plight ever made public? This is the first I’ve learned of them.
I read one article that didn’t say.
What kind of beasts take hostages?
BTW any members of UNWRA who participated in holding hostages in Gaza should be tried and shot.

Dr Aseem Malhotra
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated $689 million to the United Nations agency in 2024, making the Gates’ the largest contributor after the US, which paid $958 million.
But Dr Malhotra highlights the billionaire is ‘heavily invested in ultra processed food‘ which are fueling the global crisis of chronic diseases.
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s Q1 2024 filing shows holdings of $604 million in Coca-Cola shares and nearly $97 million in Kraft Heinz, the maker of Kraft mac and cheese, an array of processed meats like Oscar Mayer, and Jell-O.
Gates has also championed synthetic meat, investing in companies such as Beyond Meat, Hampton Creek Foods and Nature’s Fynd,despite growing concerns of these ultraprocessed alternatives.

Good thinking!
The article ends with this statement:
“Were it not so dangerous to democratic norms, the efficiency of these early days would almost be admirable, in the same way that one might admire a well-run play by an opposing football team.”
The author should have used the upper case “D” instead of the lower in spelling “democratic” – as his ‘woe are we’ complaints all pertain to Dem positions and strategies which began with Jug Ears and spread like a cancerous virus under Senile Joe. The Trump Team really did “come ready”!

😂
May not be a popular opinion but this story, if all is as reported, actually bothers me…if a non elected “advisor” to a Democrat President suddenly shut down all access to an entire government agency, while they, and their people, literally moved into the building, we would be screaming bloody murder!
Elections have consequences.
If the corruption wasn’t so deep these drastic measures would not be necessary.
This is the Big Ugly.
Who are Musk’s “aides?” What clearance do they have to access the Social Security numbers, dates of birth, home addresses and salaries of millions of federal employees? What’s next – disclosure of bank accounts, cell phone logs, credit card receipts?
There are fifteen pay levels for government workers. Will these unidentified aides skim through the database and flag employees at the 10 to 15 level, so that those jobs will be eliminated? Whatever happened to salary based upon meritorious performance?
Will they google where the employees live, decide the homes are too expensive for someone at Level 8, and flag that person as a potential moonlighter?
DOGE was to be staffed by volunteers, but I wonder at this point if the “aides” sleeping on the floor will get bonuses, based upon how much they can “save” the government by eliminating jobs.
These tactics are not MAGA. They do not represent law and order. They aren’t what I voted for.
Having access to the highly confidential personal information of federal employees is an invitation to abuse of power. The Big Ugly is DOGE gone rogue.
Think we’re not impacted because we don’t work for the government?
They’ve got the next two years, and perhaps four, to work on that. When “drastic measures” are abusive, it’s not just the federal employees who are in trouble. Nameless, faceless people are digging into the lives of 2.2 million Americans. They are not “just” federal employees. They are Americans.
We should be defending their right to privacy.
If my memory serves me correct, Elon made job applications available for DOGE. They needed a lot of people. NGO’s , (Contractors), have had access to the USA computer systems for a long time. Secuirity clearences were given by their employer, The US Government.
I recall the applications, which were for volunteers, and a certain high IQ was required. No paid positions were offered, at least not initially.
Correct…. I looked into DOGE. Volunteer work unless that has changed.
Who are Musk’s “aides?”
Me: Musks aides have been named in several articles and if you would have read the article I posted you would have the answer to your first question.
What clearance do they have to access the Social Security numbers, dates of birth, home addresses and salaries of millions of federal employees?
Me: The “clearance” they have is in an executive order by the President himself which is the head of the Federal branch giving members of DOGE the authority and clearance.
What’s next – disclosure of bank accounts, cell phone logs, credit card receipts?
Me: This is a great idea to see which government employees were working other jobs while clocking into their tax payer paid jobs. I hope DOGE goes there. Charge them with defrauding the US government etc. Maybe this is your real fear?
There are fifteen pay levels for government workers. Will these unidentified aides skim through the database and flag employees at the 10 to 15 level, so that those jobs will be eliminated?
Me: One phone call to ANY government agency while on hold for an hour and a half or one trip to a government office waiting for three hours to be seen will tell you the majority of government employees are lazy and over paid. I
Whatever happened to salary based upon meritorious performance?
Me: The corrupt and progressive liberals In government did away with that by bringing in DEI.
Will they google where the employees live, decide the homes are too expensive for someone at Level 8, and flag that person as a potential moonlighter?
Me: Hundreds of billions of dollars are unaccounted for or outright wasted. How much of that missing money has went into accounts of government workers? Phony contracts to families? Phony Aid with kickbacks? Why should that be off limits?
DOGE was to be staffed by volunteers, but I wonder at this point if the “aides” sleeping on the floor will get bonuses, based upon how much they can “save” the government by eliminating jobs.
Me: They can eliminate half of all government jobs and government would still be too big. Giving those hard workers bonuses would be a great idea. They’ve already saved over a billion dollars for We The Taxpaying People.
These tactics are not MAGA.
Me: Sorry for you but you’re not the spokesman for MAGA and you don’t get to decide what is or what isn’t MAGA.
They do not represent law and order.
Me: Unaccountable government workers, tax payer waste, fraud and abuse is against the law and the furthest thing from order.
They aren’t what I voted for.
Me: It’s obvious who you voted for and we’re all unburdened by who you voted for.
Having access to the highly confidential personal information of federal employees is an invitation to abuse of power.
Me: Nobody abuses power more than government employees.
The Big Ugly is DOGE gone rogue.
Me: Government has been rogue form many years. Those days are coming to an end.
Think we’re not impacted because we don’t work for the government?
Me: Yes, I will be impacted, for the better. I might actually get a government employee to show up to work and just maybe they’ll answer the phone without a two hour wait.
They’ve got the next two years, and perhaps four, to work on that.
Me: Why put off tomorrow what you can do today?
When “drastic measures” are abusive, it’s not just the federal employees who are in trouble.
Me: Our government workers have been abusing the system as well as the American people.
Nameless, faceless people are digging into the lives of 2.2 million Americans.
Me: Elon Musk is a name and he has one of the most recognized faces in the world. Hopefully that 2.2 million will be brought down to less than a million.
They are not “just” federal employees. They are Americans.
Me: Timothy McVeigh, Charles Manson, Ted Bundy we’re all Americans also and being a “federal” employee doesn’t make them special.
We should be defending their right to privacy.
Me: Personally, you sound like a DEI hire that worked your way into a 10-15 level of government pay while working at another job and clocking into your government job at the same time and if I had to guess you just happen to live in a house you could never afford off of government pay alone and you’re worried you’re going to get caught and held accountable for your crime.
If this is the case, I hope you get caught, fired, tried and convicted of your crimes and have to payback every scent that you stole.
MAGA
Who I am is one pi$$ed off Sarah Palin Mama Bear Wolverine, whose children are federal employees and have been caught in the DOGE crossfire.
And who you are was just beautifully displayed by your unwarranted (and wholly inaccurate) screed.
I believe USAFirst! is a brand new poster to The Treehouse and it sounds to me like they are simply here to stir up trouble.
This story didn’t set well with me when I very first read it and now I am wondering how accurate it is, because, on its face, it doesn’t seem logical or believable.
I agree with your initial point – this is not what I voted for and I’d like to get more information, and perhaps independent confirmation, as to the veracity of this report.
Me as well.
I suggest y’all go to Gateway Pundit, top story right now.
Musk and Doge team uncovered that Treasury was approving ALL payments, even to Terrorists, this is “the rest of the story” ,…
In order to audit the Fed. Govt. DOGE must have access to the computer systems, and locking everyone out, so they can’t try to delete incriminating evidence, only makes sense…
“Follow the MONEY!”
I do not have any problem with DOGE having access to the checkbook! Transparency and accountability are two of my favorite words and reflect how I have always attempted to live my life.
My issue with the story that Reuters reported was that it appeared a small group of unknown people were given open, unfettered access to the personnel records of everyone in the government, with no clearly defined mission for what they were allowed to do with it.
Like I said, I really suspect that his story was dropped in order to stir outrage rather than to convey facts about programs being instituted to reveal waste and corruption.
Hardly, I’ve most likely been posting here longer than you have.
You are correct. They are wrong and will have to backpedal their faux outrage.
I have son in law that is a federal contractor. I pray he is downsized so he can move my daughter and grandchild out of the cess pit that is D.C.
Your kids will find work if they know how to work.
Her kids obviously know how to work because they are employed.
That is so rude and uncalled for.
Please do not post large blocks of text.
Especially if all you are doing is insulting a longtime treeper for simply asking for citation of your declarations…
I agree with you. This seems to be the newest “faux outrage” cause du jour.
Federal employees not around 95% for democrats. Those computers belong to We the People.
We paid for them. DOGE, working as an agent for PDJT, OBVIOUSLY has been given permission to do what has been done if this story is true.
You do not have a right to know my children’s Social Security numbers, where they live, their dates of birth, and how much they earn. Hell, I don’t even know how much they earn!
I don’t have a problem with the salary’s of public employees being available to the taxpayers. My husband is a retired firefighter and his salary was public record, as it should have been IMHO, since the residents of the city where he worked were his “employers”.
However, there are limits to what information should, or should not, be available, and to whom it should be released, and these concerns have been around as long as there have been computers. There needs to be oversight and there need to be clear parameters – this story makes it appear that no such guardrails are in place and that is what makes me wonder just how accurate the report is or if it was just thrown out there to get people fired up and angry about DOGE so that they will demand it be shut down.
President Trump is not a stupid man, and he is surrounded by some very excellent and thorough lawyers, who have been carefully preparing for this moment for years. I suspect this is a red herring and the actual facts of what is happening at OPM are not yet known, but may turn out to be very different than what is being reported.
PDJT’s administration and those he has authorized to look into corruption and theft within the Departments over which he is the EXECUTIVE does.
If your children are not one of the many thieves that are stealing from the US Taxpayers then their files will be kept locked up.
They are looking for fake employees with fake paychecks going to direct deposit.
You are very gullible if you do not think that these thieves have not thought of creating a system of social security numbers (think of someone using their 10 year old’s SS #) that $$$$ are funneled into a bank account attached to that SS#.
Neither does the CCP have the right but … Surprised Wikipedia didn’t scrub this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Personnel_Management_data_breach
Government employees salary , pay , benefits , etc. is public information.
Do you really believe that PDJT just let Musk do this without discussion or permission??
Do you really think that is how PDJT handles the work that must be done to clean out the rot?
Maybe PDJT will read about it in the newspaper this morning and be very surprised./////
My opinion is that these are the “employees” who have “no show” jobs, have not had one keystroke of actual work done on their computer, are used by “people” who need to access secure info to steal/sell but don’t want to do it on their own computer, and many other nefarious reasons.
The Boss is in charge. Not Musk. He had permission from The Boss and The Boss’ Team.
If true, yes I do believe it would have been done without permission.
Thank you for understanding my point and explaining the concern so much better than I did!
Well, we sure started a maelstrom this morning!
It’s all good, no hard feelings. Everyone has a right to their opinion, wrong or right.
Treepers are the best.
This comment did not age well. Go to later pages and you can learn the DOGE has already found all sorts of corruption by locking these thieves out.
One thing for sure, the exercise will expose a huuuuuge percentage of phantom employees getting paychecks…….ya think?
I didn’t vote for Musk to have extra-constitutional powers.
Quite agree VM. Govt functions cannot, do not, and should not function under the same rules private enterprises apply to their functions and attempts to force it to do so are doomed to failure. There are very good reasons for these differences, and while the advantages given govt functions have been abused by recent administrations in the US and most Western societies, for quite frankly, centuries, this doesn’t obviate the need to keep that distinction intact.
Trying to explain the reasons for the distinction however to a person involved in private enterprise are normally as fruitful as trying to convince a libertarian that perhaps their perspectives aren’t quite so correct as they are convinced they are, and this seems to be the issue at work here…
Speaking of convincing people that perhaps their perspectives aren’t so correct as they think they are you made a great example of that.
Hopefully you’ll go back and reread over and over what Sundance wrote to you until it sinks in.
Very speculative story. Sounds like complete crap. Reuters publishing it tends to verify my thinking.
Yes–“IF IT’S TRUE”.
ps; Obama/Biden already gave China everything.
Agreed,
However the Tech lords all unelected and the MSM essentially shut down free peoples access to real time and accurate information.

“We have no visibility into what they are doing with the computer and data systems,” one of the officials said. “That is creating great concern. There is no oversight. It creates real cybersecurity and hacking implications.”
China already downloaded the entire OPM personnel database 5 or 6 years ago… I recommend Experian credit and identity monitoring, and Home Title Lock…
I was caught up in the China OPM breach as spouse of a DoD contractor with a clearance. I have had to have all kinds of extra security put on my credit scores, emails, and yes my social security number. DOGE may very well be working off of OPM and other payroll companies to discover people breaking the rules.
A comparison of two lists to find overlap is a very easy thing for any computer to do. it doesn’t take genius level algorithm to do that.

WASHINGTON, Jan 31 (Reuters) –
“Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.
Since taking office 11 days ago, President Donald Trump has embarked on a massive government makeover, firing and sidelining hundreds of civil servants in his first steps toward downsizing the bureaucracy and installing more loyalists.
Musk, the billionaire Tesla (TSLA.O), opens new tab CEO and X owner tasked by Trump to slash the size of the 2.2 million-strong civilian government workforce, has moved swiftly to install allies at the agency known as the Office of Personnel Management.”

Transcript taken from the press conference:
we’re going to keep focused on the need to look out for everyday New Yorkers and everyday Americans who are under assault by an extreme MAGA Republican agenda that is trying to cut taxes for billionaire donors and wealthy corporations and then stick New Yorkers and working-class Americans across the country with the bill that’s not acceptable
we are going to fight it legislatively, we are going to fight it in the courts, and we’re gonna fight it in the streets
Marsh is asking there are those who say the Democratic party has not yet arrived to take on Donald Trump and some of his measures he’s enacted what are you going to do as a minority leader of the house and what are the things that you most are most determined to block if you can it’s an important question uh as was demonstrated this week house Democrats Senate Democrats Democratic Governors and everyday Americans all across the country rose up in defiance as it relates to the illegal unlawful and extreme Federal funding freeze that is part of the Republican ripoff agenda we fought it we stopped it and we will never surrender
Forget the apology. How about a recantation?
What good is either?
This is how the left operates.
They are petulant children in a toy store having a fit because they want a certain toy, instead of indulging the bratty child go old school, spank them, leave the store, once home send to bed with no dinner and advise that the whippings will continue until attitudes change. In a loving way.
Hold fast America, we must face this down, if they get their way, the bad behavior will continue.

@PressSec
This is NOT a rescission of the federal funding freeze.
It is simply a rescission of the OMB memo.
Why? To end any confusion created by the court’s injunction.
The President’s EO’s on federal funding remain in full force and effect, and will be rigorously implemented.

https://nypost.com/2025/01/31/us-news/army-refuses-to-identify-female-black-hawk-pilot-killed-in-dc-collision/
Wonder if it’s some big person’s kid. 🤔
A rumor you seem all too willing to propagate.
It is so obvious there is a reason for hiding this person’s identity.
According to reports from yesterday, the body of that pilot has not been recovered. The family has requested to withold the name. That seems to be correct. The statemend from DOD is that the name is not being released “at this time”.
That could indicate that we MAY see the name released after confirmation of the deceased.
We also likely will have the name after the release of the NTSB report. I have never seen a report that did not name all of the flight crew.
Happy 14TH Birthday! “The Last Refuge”. Est 1 February 2011.
Has it really been 14 years since Sundance built this Treehouse? Doesn’t seem possible. A lot happened in a few months in late 2010/early 2011….
Suddenly, and cruelly, deprived of an internet home, and adrift in the no-mans-land of the internet, the trusty Treehouse pioneers sought the last refuge available to them… a new beginning.
Unburdened by what had been (KD+), Treehouse pioneer, Stella, explained, in her column celebrating the first birthday of ‘The Last Refuge’, the desperate beginnings of a literal last refuge…
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2012/02/01/happy-first-birthday-the-last-refuge/
Although Stella’s historical story is still available, some early photos have been lost – possibly during the November 2020 near-disastrous destruction of the Treehouse by the evil internet vandals: WordPress .com/Automattic.
Fighting back in the war against the nasty deplatformers, Sundance implemented “Operation CTH Liberty” which led to the eighth wonder of the world – the great salvage and restoration of The Conservative Treehouse…
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2020/11/24/update-treehouse-2-0-migrating-site-after-deplatforming-by-wordpress-automattic-2/
If “Operation CTH Liberty” had failed, this is what the Treehouse would look like now….
https://theconservativetreehouse.wordpress.com/
The battle for liberty, which Sundance and team fight on our behalf, would be a LOT harder. Where would we go if the Treehouse did not exist? Who else would have informed us of the heinous intricacies of the Deep State? No one consistently researches and analyses like Sundance. No one. Yet, the war for internet survival continues in the battle against costs. The more research and stories, the greater the costs. The more stories, the greater the website visitors. The more visitors, the greater the website costs.
I would have liked to celebrate the 14th Birthday by way of donating the equivalent of a birthday cake, a flight to Russia, and a large bundle of cash and gold bars stuffed in a shoe (hello Bob Menendez) to the Treehouse, but alas, during these residual-Bidenomic times, shoes are beyond my budget these days. Nevertheless a birthday gift is on the way via the easy-to-use ‘Donate’ icon. The Last Refuge at The Conservative Treehouse is no ‘Clinton Foundation’, ‘Leland Ye’, or ‘Dayna Morales’ (use the search box!) and so relies on honest donations.
Throughout the past 14 years, Sundance and the team within The Last Refuge have produced and given us thousands of stories, and informed MILLIONS of readers during their HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of visits. And Sundance has definitely influenced many politicians and officials. (Who could forget the story of the letter to Sundance, slid under his motel door, in a near-deserted DC motel.)
To the entire team at The Last Refuge, past and present, thank you. Enjoy your anniversary celebration of a wonderful creation, and thank you for allowing us to join you in The Last Refuge inside The Conservative Treehouse.
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…
Thank you Rocket for recounting the history of Sundance and his compatriots building, and rebuilding, this remarkable corner of the internet. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE TREEHOUSE!!
Thank you for the links Rocket!
And the memories!!
Happy Birthday!!!!

Slowly, then all at once.
The Federal Aviation Administration is fighting a class-action lawsuit alleging it denied 1,000 would-be air traffic controllers jobs because of diversity hiring tar
gets — as it was revealed that staffing levels were “not normal” at the time of this week’s deadly midair collision.
Complaints about the FAA’s hiring policies resurfaced after the American Airlines passenger plane and a Black Hawk helicopter crashed in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, killing 67 people in the country’s deadliest aviation disaster in almost a quarter-century.
Details of the litigation re-emerged, too, as Andrew Brigida, the lead plaintiff in the suit filed in 2015, suggested the federal aviation agency’s obsession with diversity hiring and inclusion had only ensured that an accident was likely to happen

Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde’s sermon to President Trump during an inaugural prayer service, coupled with her church’s advocacy for humanitarian immigration programs, reveals a striking hypocrisy — one that could be seen as self-serving and even a conflict of interest.
That’s because the federal contracting arm of the church, Episcopal Migration Ministry (EMM), is paid to bring in people on resettlement programs that Trump has temporarily paused and targeted for re-evaluation.
EMM budget figures for 2024 are not available yet, but in 2023 it earned $53 million from various taxpayer-funded government programs to resettle 3,600 individuals.
EMM “sponsored” 6,400 individuals from 48 countries in 2024. The leading nationalities were Afghans under a special humanitarian program, refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, and others in smaller numbers from seven distinct special resettlement programs.
There is even a contingent from Vietnam. True, EMM resettles fewer than 10 individuals from Vietnam annually, but it raises the question: Why, 50 years after the end of the Vietnam War, are we still running a taxpayer-funded program to help people immigrate from Vietnam to the US?
https://nypost.com/2025/01/31/opinion/episcopal-bishop-lectures-trump-while-earning-taxpayer-millions-to-bring-migrants-into-us/
Theres a lot more in the article
The leading nationalities were Afghans under a special humanitarian program
I’m more concerned about this effort because I think there is a reason for this particular immigration group.
Who authorized this? For what reason is it specifically afghans? Could it be that they are more brutal and dangerous and will lie and (k)ill to accomplish a takeover of this country?
Do they want to take over America insidiously and with purpose?
If you answered no to this question, you are seriously blind to the obvious.
And they are not the only enemies trying to take over from within. The others are those who are hiding the name and background of the pilot of the copter.
I believe this country is in serious trouble because there are too many underhanded forces fighting our Very Stable Genius. PRAY! PRAY! PRAY!
BUT THIS IS JUST MY OPINION.

[ Shock Report ] BIDEN WHEELCHAIR BOUND According to well placed sources the former President has declined rapidly since stepping down from office and can no longer walk on his own. ‘He’s now pretty much resigned to using a wheelchair,’ said the source.
BIDEN NO LONGER ABLE TO WALK Sources say the frail former President is no longer receiving the extraordinary measures which kept him in his feet during his Presidency
https://nitter.poast.org/iSource_news
They’re not jump starting him anymore!
What this says about Jill Biden is awful. She is literally a piece of garbage.
Elder Abuser.
He’s a child abuser. He deserves to be abused. It’s called karma or, even better, God’s Wrath.
While looking for pictures, there were a few links ‘removed’.
That was fast…. Makes you wonder who was doing all the beach walking and bike riding the last 4 yrs.
There’s probably some kind of supplement/energy type shot that can keep you “going”. I’m sure something used like that would have a short working period and side-effects. No need to go through all that now.
Like someone above said, speaks to Jill’s character.
When you operate at the behest of the dark one and mortgaged your soul for ill-gotten gain so long ago, for B-B-Biden this is his will sadly be his eternal reward.
The spectacle over the last 4.5 years has been elder abuse, a sad controllable puppet.
Though he hates us, let’s pray for him as he fades away.
Your last sentence will be very hard for me regarding anyone associated with Zero.
Sometimes evil people (Pedo Joe) receive some of their punishment on earth. Joe is not a spark of divinity. He is evil. My opinion, is that God sometimes puts evil people into the lives of other evil people in order to punish them in the flesh.
Jill is Joe’s punishment. He earned it. I am not going to pray for evil. They deserve each other.
God had to put evil people into His Son’s earthly life in order to bring about his death and resurrection. God knew exactly what evil people needed to be when and where. He knew what they were going to do to His Son. Then He had to sit back and watch the horror that was done to His Son knowing that these people would do what they always do and that is “pick evil.”
Sometimes people are just pure evil. Joe and Jill deserve each other and deserve their punishments. I am not going to lose a minute of my day in concern for Joe’s earthly punishments.
Withdrawal from “cocktail denial ” will likely kill him .

Naw Pete, it was the fake breastfeeding of the fake baby that you and your “husband” bought that killed it off the or you, player..
It could not possibly be the incredible non performance of his duties.
This loony was some sort of fake Rhodes Scholar and then some sort of pretend combat vet.
Friggin’ REMF.
Rhodes Scholar? Count your fingers after they shake your hand.
Look at Rhodes Scholars over the decades. A veritable Rogue’s gallery.
I did not see your post YTG..
They seem to give those scholarships out for being gay, because Rachel Maddow got one and she is really not very bright, and I’m not saying that just because I don’t like her.
Bill Clinton was a Rhodes scholar, and he is genuinely smart. maybe you had to be smart if you were straight, but not if you were gay.
Natural Intelligence genes are not linked to those of morals /ethics .
Something seems off with these Rhodes Scholars of late..
It got watered down, obviously.
That was simply disgusting. Good riddance to these freaks.
No fan of Pete. I was disgusted by that pic, but I also was po’d when I saw that the chest feeding pic was PhotoShopped. Not legit.
Who fed the baby?
Yes it is fake. The one with Pete and his” husband” sitting in a hospital bed pretending they just gave birth to twins is real though, and only slightly less disgusting.
Straight dads never pose with their infants as if they had given birth, I don’t know why some gay men think this is clever.
“maternity leave”..🤮

Fascinating read :
Trump’s War on Global Socialism (Part 2) — CanadaThe Failing State That’s Been Offered a Seat Inside Fortress America
In Part 2, I’m going to put Canada under the microscope to understand the threat that Canada has come to represent to American national security when viewed from the Trump’s perspective, why the threat to annex Canada is thus far more real than most people think, and why a merger between Canada and the US might be the nation-building exercise that Trump needs in order to purge the global socialist belief system from the North American continent, much as the massive 19th-century mobilization to open up the Wild West to settlement in the immediate aftermath of the U.S. Civil War was the essential ingredient that allowed a bitter and broken America to heal their divided country and build a new cohesive national identity upon the ashes of the Civil War….
https://juliusruechel.substack.com/p/trumps-war-on-global-socialism-part-14f?publication_id=358314&post_id=156007264&isFreemail=true&r=yiwmd&triedRedirect=true
Perhaps heidi, you can provide an answer to a question I have trying to get for some time.
Canada does not currently have ANY TARIFFS on any goods imported from the USA so how are we ripping you off?
The US does not have a $200 billion trade deficit with Canada. Why does does President Trump keep repeating that?
The heart of the dispute is the claim that the Canadian lumber industry is unfairly subsidized by federal and provincial governments, as most timber in Canada is owned by the provincial governments.
n.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada–United_States_softwood_lumber_dispute
No Andrew it is not the heart of the dispute.
The lumber war has been on going since 1982. Yes most of it is on Crown land and managed by the Govenments. The federal and provincial governments provide financial support and incentives to the forest industry through several programs.
But, the US Forest Service, a govenment agency, provides far more money to subsidize US forest companies than Canadian govenments. And there is currently an 14.4% tariff (additional 25% to go on today) on lumber going to USA from Canada and zero on lumber from US to Canada.
i don’t see how Canada is ripping off the US and I have yet to hear from the President exactly how we are ripping you off. He just says it
How about militarily for a start?
Our military is a joke, a farce even.
Without the protection U.S.A. just where would we be.
Turd does father had all the military wearing one coloured uniform decades ago.
Young Turd has continually refused to “pay up” to commitments.
Many younger Canadians Chat with are extremely pro President Trump.
Seniors, CBC indoctrinated fools etc..not so.
As they have been lied to about their pensions and health care “ safety net”
A “ safety net” that President Trump knows was enabled by such practices as not paying the Canadians share of military spending.
Canadian media and our governments here have lost the confidence of the majority of its citizens, gaoling grannies, Ottawa bouncy castles etc. will not be forgotten for at least one generation.
Cheers and God bless PDJT
I agree. Our military is a BIG joke. Our healthcare system is a Big joke. The country is run by even bigger jokes. I’m a senior and pro President Trump. I just don’t understand this tariff business on Canada.
i’m hoping this becomes a wake up call for us. We need a big shake up NOW.
Upon review, it appears the tariff justification given is the Fentanyl crisis. China is behind it, Mexico and Canada are the pass throughs. I suspect that in part the tariffs are designed to force a hand regarding immigration and drugs.
I don’t believe this is just about gas, milk, cheese, timber and tobacco. We will see.
Now that I am thinking about it, most of Canada is “Crown Lands”. British Crown? If yes, is maintaining a large European stake in N. America a violation of the Monroe Doctrine? Just food for thought.

Fox News interview. With a reliable source…
WSB
February 1, 2025 at 5:19 am
Woah. just woke up. Watching Faux. I have replayed the video eight times to catch Jonathan Gilliam’s quote. It is wild. Find it and spread it if you can.
Happened to see repeat footage from the Philly plane crash, the British guy who was anchoring around midnight? Glasses and dark hair. Jonathon, also.
His name is Jonathan and he interviews Jonathan Gilliam, former FBI agent and other, who makes a strange statement at the end of his interview, “I don’t want to scare anybody, but one thing is very peculiar….because I thought this was the case, and I looked it up…..is that these types of accidents will often happen in three’s or more…so it would not surprise me if we, within the next month, we have another accident.”
I replayed this to get the quote straight. I caught it.
Anyone? Really scary.
If anyone is in LE, if you can relay this to anyone in LE or POTUS control, please do. Gilliam was sending a message IMHO.
I may be over my skis but I do not think so.
Nope, not over your skis, I thought the same thing last night…
….I have worked in several burn units across the country (80’s, 90’s)…at each one…the “big burns” always came in three’s…it did not matter if it was Charleston or elsewhere…And we, the staff knew it and were mentally prepared.
A lot of the time, we lose big names, to the grim reaper…and same thing…in 3’s…
Advances in construction products, cars, traffic laws, flame retardants agriculture rules and a host of other things have reduced the numbers of burn injuries…yet these things, plane crashes, still seem to happen.
My deeper question is this, as an everyday housewife: We can put a man on the moon, and get them back safely…with all our technology, and we cannot prevent airline crashes?
The rule of 3’s….Divine Trinity?
This was over at BB yesterday:
https://www.breitbart.com/health/2025/01/31/horrible-michigan-five-year-old-killed-hyperbaric-chamber-explosion/
Yup, I don’t know why it is, but it IS.
I worked in nursing homes for years when I was young, the deaths always came in 3s.
We’d be on a stretch where no one died for a while, one would, we know they’d be two more and this was always the case.
My brother in law’s a retired ICU RN. He told me numerous times that if they had 2 codes on a shift that
they would take stock . Of who else was sick enough to be the third one. Said that number 3 would generally
occur on the next shift, often at shift change.
The rule of 3’s may be from Karl Jung. He wrote about observing it in his practice 100 years ago.
It’s in the book, “Synchronicity.”
We need to thwart the next one.
That is a common saying in the UK.
I grew up hearing “trouble comes in threes”.
As well as here and in Ireland.
Likely not nefarious. The aviation community says this all the time. It’s amazing how often it’s true.
Best January ever! Thank you Lord!

“Starting in 2018, Rogers allegedly began soliciting confidential information including economic data and sensitive information about interest-rate deliberations, and then passed it on to co-conspirators while pretending to teach classes in China, according to the indictment. Rogers received payments for airfare, lodging and dining during his travel to China, and was offered a payment for a beach vacation, the indictment said.”

“Mornin’ Treeps,
I’ve got a Must Read article here, it’s longish as articles go for ZH, and it’s deep reading, but it’s absolutely worth the time.
Further, I know many Treepers like me, like these sorts of articles that dive deep into the weeds.
I’m looking forward to the conversation it sparks, it’s one of those articles where you feel like you want to sit in a room with some people and chew over all that you just took in.
This is about Covid, it’s from a whistleblower with quite a firm grasp of the entire attack launched upon us.
What makes this fascinating is the writers ability to provide us a historical background of warfare and how the planned war that Covid is/was looks like a repeat of another time in history.

The Biodefense Oligarchy And Its Demographic Defeats
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/biodefense-oligarchy-and-its-demographic-defeats
I have a lot of thoughts about what I just read here.
I’ve followed this all very closely and I have a pretty firm grasp on how the human body works.
I knew what I was looking at from Day One.
I’ve also been reading at this site since it was but a few branches, Sundance has certainly educated us.
So with a head full of bits and pieces, even more dots were connected, in particular interest to me was how and what the Fauci role was in this all..
I feel like I have an even more complete understanding of it all now.
I think it’s important for more of the population to have a much deeper understanding of it all..
I totally agree with the writer in that it’s critical now to take stock in what we’re now left with- the people that did all this to us will resist because that means they are done, over and just how bad what they did is- will be fully revealed in the post mortem deep analysis, but it must be done for so many reasons.
I see doing this as a national security issue because as the writer is saying here, how do we even build a fierce military when we have no idea of the current state of health of our nation because of the damage to the human body that we KNOW the vaccine did.

Why, Musk’s good buddies, of course. “[Musk] put several of his longtime allies in key positions. That includes Anthony Armstrong, who helped Musk buy Twitter, according to the Post.

Remember when DOGE was supposed to be staffed by volunteers, willing to work 80 hours a week without pay? Do you think this trio is doing that?
How long before they turn their attention from federal employees to the rest of us?
The first red flag was the dark MAGA hat. The second was the H1-B issue. The third is self-appointed bureaucrats accessing the confidential personal information of Americans.
I voted for President Trump to stop the abuses in power. What we’re seeing in DOGE is just a brand new version of abuse.
Musk and allies have reportedly seized key HR office – and skipped past officials to send mass resignation email
“I don’t really care [what you think], Margaret.”
Right back at you, Fionnagh.
IMHO its pretty obvious you have been emotionally triggered by an article in Rueters, that is intended to do just that, as DOGE is an existential threat to the Deep State, and being emotionally triggered, you are blinded to any critical thinking that would otherwise challenge the narrative of the Article.
Doge has uncovered that SS payments were ordered to be approved, even if they were to terrorists,..read the article at TGP, and take a chill pill.
Throwing Americans out of work while threatening to go to war to be able to bring in foreigners, is not a good look.
Especiallay when a man of his intellect is pretending not to know there are ways to bring in the random foreign geniuses and raising the cap on H1B has nothing to do with it.
What clear, convincing evidence dowe have, that MUSK has any influenceon Immigration policy?
DOGE is NOT about Immigration policy or H1b visas, and sohim expressing his support for the program, is no different than anyone else expressing their opinion.
Just cause he has the ear of PDJT, does not mean he has influence in every area of policy; Jr. holds many policy positions, on Climate change and gun control etc. that PDJT does not.
These attacks are pretty obvious attempts to undermine support for Musk, and ultimately for PDJT.
We have seen this same tactic used, time and time again, and yet people still fall for it.
I’m not pro H1B at all, but I don’t have anyone working for me either. If I did have to hire intelligent and qualified people I might leave out people from a few states. Like Oregon, whose governor claimed last year that math was racist and not necessary. Wasn’t it Massachusetts and Delaware who said that they would no longer focus on reading, writing and math in their elementary schools? How many state actually graduate students who can’t even read? Are you allowed to give job applicants literacy tests? How would you choose your applicants?
