The Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement has gained in ranks mostly due to the pragmatic messenger who cuts through party lines, Donald Trump; but also, because the political left went too far into the world of social crazy.
For several years, traditional moderates and Democrats have been turning away from the messaging of the leftist party now controlled by radical Marxists and publicly declared socialists. Almost everything they created as a point of advocacy made their following spiral into an ever-diminishing circle.
Democrats are the party of censorship, gleefully cheering as conservative voices were deplatformed, demonetized, targeted by the social media system operators who controlled the public square, targeted by an aligned government and mainstream media, and evidenced in their full-throated demands around the COVID-19 madness and vaccine protocols.
Democrats cheered as government collaborated with tech donors to diminish their opposition, while simultaneously they affirmed some of the evilest enterprises around DEI, toxic advocacy for transgender and LGBTQ+ ideology, the mutilation of children and far worse. Socially their policies became increasingly toxic and ridiculous.
As they descended this spiral, Democrats became increasingly dangerous – visibly so – and the outcome of their advocacy was not in alignment with anything resembling ‘domestic tranquility’. None of this is questioned by serious people who have watched the last 18 years unfold. The leftist ideology is abusive in the extreme.
As the left pushed further and further into their created system of social madness, violence and evil enterprise, they lost support and MAGA Republicans were beneficiaries.
Despite our lack of control over the power centers, the MAGA tent expanded as the party of the individual not the collective; the party of freedom, free speech and, well, functionally common sense. The toxic abusers held power, but culturally they were losing control. MAGA represented the rebellion, and the rebel ranks gained even while, and perhaps because, we were being abused.
Then a 22-year-old radical leftist, fully indoctrinated within the 18-years of social Marxist advancement, shot the Christian representation of the MAGA rebellion, Charlie Kirk, in the neck – killing him in front of millions.
♦ Telemachus was a Christian monk from Asia who went to Rome and saw the gladiatorial games at the Colosseum. Telemachus watched the brutality of men slaughtering men, animals ripping the flesh and limbs from humans, while eighty thousand in the audience cheered. As a Christian, Telemachus was horrified.
Telemachus cried out, ‘In the Name of Christ, stop!’ Yet, his voice was lost in the roar within the great Colosseum. He descended the stairs, made his way to the edge of the arena, jumped down and stood between two Gladiators. ‘In the Name of Christ, stop!’, he declared. The crowd jeered, whistled and shouted down the much smaller monk, but Telemachus would not relent, ‘In the Name of Christ, stop!,’ he desperately kept repeating.
The angry jeers of the crowd turned violent, and they threw stones upon Telemachus; but the monk would only reply, ‘In the Name of Christ, stop!’. The stoning continued to rain down upon the small Asian monk, until Telemachus was dead. His only recorded words were, ‘In the Name of Christ, stop!’… until he was dead.
Telemachus’ body was dragged away, the games continued, but the moment changed how many perceived the brutality that took place within the Colosseum. The horrific injustice of the events forever changed how the blood lust within the venue was evaluated. Thereafter, Emperor Honorius recognized Telemachus’ martyrdom, and the gladiator games ended. [SOURCE]
Right now, within our body politic, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s murder, there are two aspects that need to be reviewed: the cultural impact, and the politics of it all.
♦ Culturally the battle is in full swing. Those who have been abused by decades of toxic enterprise have been triggered to action by the killing of Charlie.
The toxic leftists who cheered the Marxist and abusive social constructs are being confronted. Their cheers in the aftermath of Charlies death are fueling a massive retribution from a righteously angered crowd.
The radical leftists are now being identified, isolated, ridiculed and marginalized. The Alinsky tactics of the abusers are being turned against them by the abused.
Thousands have lost their jobs; high profile leftists like Jimmy Kimmel have suffered righteous backlash. The toxic voices of the evildoers are now receiving consequences.
Evil killed Charlie, and Goodness is fighting back.
The American Christian culture has surged to the front of the battle lines, and has pierced the darkness. However, there’s a danger in our victory, and that brings the politics of it into the discussion.
♦ Politically, if there is one skillset the abusers have in their arsenal, that can be predicted to a certainty, it’s their ability to turn their abuse into victimhood once confronted. As righteous backlash continues surging, the abuser suddenly claims the mantle of ‘free speech.’
Do not underestimate the ability of Democrats to flip from abuser to proclaimed victim on the issue of ‘free speech’. The radical left, the Marxists, do not have the word hypocrite in their political dictionary; they are professional, narcissistic abusers.
The professional leftists dispatch their own history without a scintilla of reservation, if that’s the position they need to take in order to advance their agenda. They will not even entertain a request for review, as they shift into a strategic offensive. We are watching that unfold right now.
If MAGA is not careful, continued demands for the removal of leftist voices, will create a political outcome where Democrats will position as the party of tolerance and free speech. This is how they get out of the downward spiral they were in. This issue is partly how they will seek to regain their numerical position in advance of the 2026 midterms.
♦ The influence of Israel. Again, this is an issue that can not only divide the MAGA coalition, but it can play directly into the hands of the political UniParty. I believe Charlie Kirk well understood this dynamic.
There are legitimate criticisms for the government of Israel that are well founded and well deserved. However, blaming Israel for every evil enterprise taking place within the U.S. body politic is not a good idea.
A substantive issue is not whether influential Israeli donors will stop funding grassroots conservatives, ie. MAGA voices, and the issue is not that Israeli donors will suddenly start giving Democrats money, fueling their own demise; the issue I believe Charlie Kirk was trying to navigate, is that influential Israeli donors will start funding traditional Republican opposition.
When Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson and similarly aligned voices begin aggressively pushing anti-Israel positions, regardless of their merit, the outcome is traditional Republican elements like Bush, McConnell, Rove, start smiling.
Remember, it was not Democrats who benefitted most from the destruction of the Tea Party in 2012, it was the Mitch McConnell, John McCain, and the Lindsey Graham professional wing of the GOP who benefitted.
When the voices of Candace, Tucker and Nick Fuentes begin carving away a big chunk of attention within the MAGA tent, it is the Ron DeSantis wing of the Republican base who benefits numerically and financially.
If we don’t want to see the Nikki Haley, Jeb Bush, Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz elements reemerge in out-scaled influence, then don’t fuel their bank accounts. Amplifying anti-Jewish sentiments, Israel conspiracy theories, and various iterations of pushback against the aggressive Zionist movement, ends up with folks like Bill Ackman, Larry Ellison, David Ellison and Ken Griffin fueling an anti-MAGA option. The professionally Republican club would like this outcome.
The MAGA tent needs to be very careful, thinking carefully about who benefits when the colosseum crowd begins throwing stones. The first stone throwers, the seeders per se’, may have an entirely different agenda than the majority of the crowd.
Be careful.
When the govt (think FBI) doesn’t provide details of events, generally the first reaction is to think they are hiding something. However, often the motive is to purposefully create a void where ‘conspiracies’ can thrive. Establishing the seeds for narratives, often entails setting up the opportunity for your opposition to label themselves. This how Machiavellian actors operate.
Be wise.
The Marxist (Democrat) leadership was NOT unhappy to see angered and emotional MAGA voices quickly set up a website where toxic leftist social media users were identified by name, identified by employment and targeted for financial retribution. What is called “cancelling” a person can also be called “doxxing” a person, and in several states that activity is illegal. What venue do you think a law firm like Perkins Coie would plan to launch their class action lawsuits from? Free representation for the hate-filled orcs, paid for by [fill_in_blank].
Be strategic.
When you see Instagram, Facebook and even Google, suddenly amplifying the voice of Nick Fuentes, ask yourself why would the platforms that formerly banned the guy for toxic hate-speech (current forever ban ongoing), suddenly adjust their algorithms and start promoting video segments of Nick Fuentes. Does it make sense?
Ask questions.
Who attends these mysterious conservative “influencer” assemblies that we sometimes hear about. Who is funding them. And if the gathering is for good, moral and honest reason, why do they get so defensive when asked who was in attendance.
Pray.
We must ground ourselves in prayer daily. Really purposeful prayer.

Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

I would rather spend the upcoming holidays alone listening to the silence surrounding me than the bilge that awaits me regarding this. The span of cognitive dissonance is so great there isn’t enough steel to build a bridge over it.
A long walk looks better and better each day.

OLDE GIRL!
I’VE JUST POSTED A COMMENT IN THIS THREAD IN THE HONOUR OF YOUR DA’AD!
One of the tricks employed by every radical regardless of the focus of their radical advocacy is the destruction of nuance. Anything less than blind support is characterized as active opposition. There is no room for discussion.
Thus, failure to support the most radical Zionist policies regarding anything is characterized as being anti-Israel.
Failure to support every Israeli government policy is characterized as being anti-Semitic.
Failure to support the most radical positions of the most radical lgbtq crowd, like child mutilation, is characterized as being anti-gay or anti-lgbtq.
Failure to support the most radical policies of Black preferences in school admissions, hiring, and promotion, or reparations in non-slave states for non-slave descendants paid for by descendants of non-slave owners is characterized as racist.
Agree with ANY policy of the Trump administration and you are a fascist, authoritarian, and a Hitler supporter.
We are sick of ALL of this crap. That “we” grows larger every day. And in the past week the shrill lies voiced by the lunatic practitioners of echo-chamber politics have just exploded the numbers of those joining that “we.”
Keep it up. See what happens.
Make Nuance Great Again.
Another EXCELLENT post by Sundance. Thank you.
My concern relates to the small circle of wealthy supporters seeking to control Congress, the district ” judiciary “, the Deep State, the Uniparty, and the morons in the media. IMESHO, the only “values” that such miscreants have are money and power. We finally have a truevleader with values, intellect, and foresight to lead this nati9n back to it true values. In addition, therevare future leaders like V.P. Vance that can continue the reconstruction.
However, the grassroots needs to get involved and demand the prosecution of thode circumventing the Constitution. As Sundance wrote, pray, get involved to support the MAGA effort, and denounce the subversive efforts of the Left. This is a battle against another great evil that America is facing today.
“thousands have lost their jobs” I doubt it. It would be nice but I do not think so.
I’m very aware of the various streams that are suddenly appearing. attempting to restore the Third Reich, a certain Chancellor, and his speeches, lots of leftist / socialist revisionism- yes, the NAZIS were socialists…lot’s of re-imaging going on right now.

You have excelled yourself with your ‘comments’, today, and sure got me thinking – not all happy thoughts, either.
I daresay British MI, operating globally for more than 300 years, has had more influence on the “influence of Israel in America” than any man or group of men within the Israeli government itself. The Brits are the one who’ve taught the whole world how to fake it big, often and successfully. British aristocracy have despised the United States from the day the Declaration of Independence was announced to this minute; especially the American Economic System of privatized industrialization protected by tariffs. BritishEastIndiaCompany = FreeMarketCapitalism.
RE: Israel: The Communists in Israel began their ongoing attack against non-communist Israelis when Benjamin Netanyahu was first elected as a PM in 1996. The EXACT same strategy and tactic of lawfare that the American Communist Party has deployed against Donald J Trump beginning in 2015 was designed and deployed against Benjamin Netanyahu beginning in 1996. The murdering Communists have been murdering their opposition for more than 100 years. Democrats in America are Communists. Call them what they are.
This article shows how Communist Lawfare moved from Israel to America without missing a beat:
https://www.newenglishreview.org/articles/the-war-against-netanyahu/
Let’s not also misconstrue Sundance’s sage advise as to mean any criticism the Israeli Gov. on the Gaza Crime or President Trump’s virtual inaction in calling it out is not prudent or even allowed here at the Treehouse. It’s clear we here are divided on this issue but this should be a safe haven for those of good will to broach legitimate concerns without being labeled a “ troll” or worse . The Truth has no agenda .
Sundance has been careful regarding this issue but it doesn’t preclude us from raising it here for fear of ridicule or being characterized by some as not following his advice. I do not believe that was his intention nor is mine to divide and cause division here. We are all in a dicey dynamic and TRUE charity should dictate our interactions … even if there are different takes on a subject.
Thank you for saying that. I think my view of Israel is developing as we find out truths we didnt want to think about. Lets be gracious.
He ended Israel as a topic, yet people still feed it.
No nuke no issue
He did no such thing.
He advocated prudence , discretion and discernment.

FTA…
After Kirk was given a prime time speaking slot at the 2024 Republican National Convention, the Democratic Majority for Israel launched a petition calling on them to rescind their pick over what they called Kirk’s “long record of antisemitic statements.”
In a backgrounder about Turning Point USA from the Anti-Defamation League, the ADL accused Kirk of creating a “vast platform for extremists and far-right conspiracy theorists” and promoting “Christian nationalism.”
Rejecting the criticism, Kirk long framed himself as a defender of the Jews.
“No non-Jewish person my age has a longer or clearer record of support for Israel, sympathy with the Jewish people, or opposition to antisemitism than I do,” he posted on X in April as part of a critique of David Friedman, the former U.S. Ambassador to Israel, challenging his view of pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses. He said he rejected the idea of punishing people for their speech.
“Once ‘antisemitism’ becomes valid grounds to censor or even imprison somebody, there will be frantic efforts to label all kinds of speech as antisemitic — the same way the left labeled all kinds of statements as ‘racist’ to justify silencing their opposition,” he said. “Not only that, but all of this won’t even work.”
In a post on X in August, Kirk called on his supporters to reject antisemitism: “Jew hate has no place in civil society. It rots the brain, reject it.”
Kirk has also frequently defended Israel in its prosecution of the war in Gaza. In July, he posted a segment from his show on X in which he defended the country against allegations that it is starving Palestinians.
Last month, he hosted a discussion with Gen Z Turning Point USA students in which they discussed waning support for Israel among Republicans and rampant antisemitism in the United States.
“As you’ll see, they don’t hate Israel or Jewish people, but they are skeptical about the state of America’s current relationship with the country, and they want to be confident America’s leaders are putting their own country first,” wrote Kirk in a post on X about the discussion. “I have been working hard to help conservative politicians, donors, and friends of Israel better understand this dynamic.”
…
Complicated
But yet you are doing it anyway.
“We are all in a dicey dynamic ” – is an accurate description.
A contributing factor in the dynamic (I feel) is the labeling of many people with differing views as anti-semitic instead addressing their arguments.
A contributing factor in the dynamic (I feel) is the labeling of many people with differing views as Israel-Firsters instead of addressing their arguments.
What would Telemachus say to our silence of Israel’s machine-gunning of starving women and children in Gaza and the bombing of a Hamas diplomatic mission in sovereign Qatar? I’m not going to be silent because of the threat Jewish donors might change candidates.
Divisive topic. Mosquito biting
You know what’s divisive, machine-gunning starving women and children approaching a feeding station.
I don’t care. I’m suffering. You must live in GAZA.
If you do, ask us for our help. Don’t trick us
Hamas has no diplomatic missions anywhere in the entire world. Hamas starved the Gazans or are “The Gazans” another name for anyone Shia Islam hates?
Then President Trump was wrong to read Bibi the riot act? That attack on the soil of a friend was damaging to the U.S. and President Trump. It was a breach of trust. That’s why President Trump was so angry.
He needs to put teeth behind his disapproval of Israel’s actions , when warranted.
I’m sure Hamas appreciates your support.
Ha!
And coffin makers appreciate yours
Your slip is showing…

If we don’t want to see the Nikki Haley, Jeb Bush, Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz elements reemerge in out-scaled influence, then don’t fuel their bank accounts.

I believe Sundance here is talking about comments like 4D. There is a war and there are probably more lies about Israel than truths being reported, especially if they come from HAMAS, the UN, BBC, ABCNNBCBS, and others. I read reports that Israel is denying machine gunning “starving women and children”. And, the bombing of enemy headquarters in any war must be considered, regardless of where they hide.
As VP Vance would say, listen to yourself! You will look past atrocities for fear of losing political donations? FUBAR
I don’t blame Israel for everything and certainly not the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I do want the Israeli lobby driven out of influence ! No dual citizenship holder should be eligible to hold public office. If the second citizenship is Israeli or another country doesn’t matter. It’s the divided loyalty that is the issue. There shouldn’t be an exemption to registration for foreign lobbying for Israel.
Agreed! This is not about being anti-Semitic! It’s about being USA first. And that MAY incorporate being against Israeli Gov Policy and not being afraid of calling it out IF warranted…
There is no US gov data on dual citizenship in Congress. HR 7484 was introduced last year, and I believe that Thomas Massie has introduced another bill for dual citizenship disclosure, but thus far, most info on this topic is just internet speculation.
Qatar and China have exponentially more influence over our government than Israel.
IS THIS SARCASM/JOKE ??????
Bullseye! As with ANY other “ ally”. No hatred, “with malice towards none”.
The clearest recent picture of how Machiavellian actors engineer the smearing of their political opponents comes from London. An anti-mass-migration demonstration, according to independent observers the largest ever seen in London , was allowed by the police to come within yards of a small group of left-wing demonstrators. This was almost certainly by design.
The outcome was inevitable. Shouts of ‘fascist scum’ were returned with cries of ‘Pedos’. A bottle was thrown. There was no Telemachus to step between the two.
A few arrests followed and the next day’s headlines read: “Migrant Protest Turns to Violence”.
Result: Starmer happy, opponents smeared, threats to the establishment diminished and a probable future seat in the House of Lords for the Police Chief.
And the left-wing demonstrators become the ‘victim’.
RIP Charlie Kirk
Accurate, Sonia.
The demonstration was as large as that in 2003, “not in my name”, calling for the then alliance not to invade Iraq.
The ‘authorities’ want to say there were 110,000 protestors, other observers estimate between one and 3 millions.
Twenty five people were arrested, all at this meeting of contradictory opinions, and the msm have majored on it.
But they’re not saying that only 8 arrested were patriots, 15 were Antifa, 2 probably just criminals!
The story is, however, getting out here. Starmer won’t be happy much longer…..
Please pray for patriots here. Oh, how we wish we had your President!
We can expect the same here. I pray people realize before it’s too late
I ordered a white T-shirt with “Freedom” printed on it in black lettering from the Alex Jones Store today.
Hope it’s a legit company…there have been a ton of sites popping up online selling “Freedom” T-shirts “in honor of Charlie Kirk” but when you look at their website, it’s a brand new company with a PO Box in one state, a mailing address in another state, and an international phone number. And once you give them your order, you get notified that your item has to go through customs and won’t be delivered for at least three weeks!
I got taken in 2020 when I bought Thin Blue Line Converse shoes from a “veteran owned” site out of Nevada…the shoes showed up a month later, in a plastic bag, from somewhere in China, cheap quality knock offs. When I tried to contact the company, I got someone, supposedly in Oregon, who just gave me the runaround. I contacted my credit card company and got the charge taken off my card!
Found in the bin…. 🙁
Thanks! I also just commented about the strange new poster who seems to have an obsession with Aggiegirl and their Caps Lock Key…
Yeah….. weird.
Yes; I flagged those. Too weird.
It’s from Alex. They are giving 25% of proceeds from Charlie themed shirts to TPUSA is my understanding. I have been better off financially than I am currently, but this seemed worth it.
Did you keep the shoes?
No, they were crap and I threw them away after I got the charge refunded to my VISA!
See now, there is a positive. Viva Visa.
There are millions of MAGA, yet, on a day-to-day basis, it often seems MAGA is the minority because we don’t stand out in any way – no pink hair, no Doc Martin boots, no LGBTQWeird lanyard, etc.
Wearing any kind of MAGA related shirt or hat is a great tactic in this culture war.
And, it is also a great thing to acknowledge the wearers – “nice hat”, “great tshirt”, thumbs up and a smile.
I will too. Thanks
Sundance, do you think Pam Bondi’s Constitutionally-inaccurate comments on prosecuting “hate speech” is part of the Uniparty Rino’s pushing/ encouraging MAGA to go too far in the free speech arena?
Irrelevant. She follows her boss. Including lying about trayvon.
She is 100 percent reliable
I think she’s simply not well versed on 1st A issues.
I was furious when the FCC Chairman started flapping his gums.
The obvious outrageous depravity of the left in America, in reaction to what happened to Charlie is akin to them sitting on a BIG tree branch with a spotlight shining on it, while they proceed to saw on the branch, between them and the tree trunk, with a chainsaw… and suddenly Carr decides to distract everyone and draw attention to himself.
There is an inherent part of reasonable thinking folks that will, over time, bias them towards thinking what is best for themselves and their families.
The FCC Chair should have just shut the flap up. Charlie was killed for exercising his freedom as an American, to say what was on his mind. Kimmel made transparently false statements, and EVERYONE KNEW IT.
Carr derailed all of it and opened an escape hatch for the left to shift the narrative away from the recognition that these people are bonkers, as well as totalitarians.
It’s almost like the left said “We are totalitarians, and you WILL do and believe what we tell you to, OR ELSE.”
FCC Chairman Carr: “HOLD MY BEER!”
Carr’s focus was a regulatory one dealing only with FCC’s rules and regulations that all broadcasters must follow and maintain in order to qualify for or renew their licenses.
That may overlap a bit with the free speech debate, but for Carr’s purposes, it was miles away from what people are legally permitted to say and to write, OUT OF THE CONTEXT of FCC regulations.
A very important additional point about Carr’s comments was that the Left’s criticism thereof was focused on whether President Trump was using his regulatory authority to go after his political opponents, but then skillfully conflated such regulatory actions with First Amendments rights.
A word to the wise: if you can’t identify the constant lies and distortions of the Left, DON’T EVER WATCH OR LISTEN because you will fall under their spell.
Don’t become a ‘mark’ for the Left unless you know how to pull it all apart.
No… I understood that part of it, and am aware that terrestrial “public” airwaves have specific requirements in order to maintain a “good faith public interest” on the airwaves.
I’m just talking about how much his timing SUCKS. It’s not like the terrestrial airwaves aren’t regurgitating falsehoods every single day.
IMO, it’s just tone-deaf over exposure to DC Group think.
When Dems and regressive leftists are BURYING THEMSELVES, and turning a majority of the public against themselves… don’t interrupt their slow motion train wreck… L E T T H E M
Reread Sundance’s piece. He cautions us against tolerating too much government interference
Excellent Sundance as usual great advice timely placed. This shows how they are dont be them. I think is an analogy. Exactly what Jesus warned us of. This place is Satans place to rule it was turned over to him in the garden. The light will displace the darkness.
Ecclesiastics 7:
1 A good name is better than a good ointment,
And the day of one’s death is better than the day of one’s birth.
2 It is better to go to a house of mourning
Than to go to a house of feasting,
Because that is the end of every man,
And the living takes it to heart.
3 Sorrow is better than laughter,
For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.
4 The mind of the wise is in the house of mourning,
While the mind of fools is in the house of pleasure.
my personal guidelines for READING comments 😉:
1. Judaism is not the source of the world’s troubles, but hatred of Judaism contributes to those troubles mightily.
2. be suspect of those who immediately grab the tinfoil to react to every current event – they are wrong far more than right.
wait and see, then act accordingly.
3. beware of Greeks bearing gifts – the Trojan Horse is frequently presented by those you think are allies.
do not be fooled – it is a weapon of your own destruction.
4. always keep your receipts. they will melt Leftists like sunlight does a vampire.
5.evaluate if the comment being offered is designed to help or hurt, –
is it truly positive or will it make you feel good but set you back?
this article is now in my top three.
although i did, for a moment there, fear i was going to have to re-read The Odyssey for context.😂

The assassination of Charlie Kirk is indeed a Turning Point in the USA. This was pure Communist/Satanist evil at work. However, this heinous act will and has awakened many young people to the nasty culture of the modern Neo Marxist Democrat Party pulling off the image “blinders” left over from the FDR and John Kennedy era of Democrats ingrained in many minds over several generations.
The Charlie Kirk assassination will be comparable in American history to the assassination of another great man who changed the nation using words and advocating for non violence to effect change, Dr. Martin Luther King. Dr. King had a dream that his children could one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. Like Charlie Kirk, he was assassinated because of righteous words and truths that many at the time did not want to hear.
Then came the grievance industry and race hustlers (example Al Sharpton) who saw opportunities for wealth and power to exploit the King’s civil rights movement. Those were the forerunners of the Neo Marxist Democrat Party “woke” movement of today. That result came full circle in the Obama/Biden eras. It continues to get more and more radical, with the open borders, weaponization of government agencies, LGTBQ+++, propaganda media, cancel culture, deplatforming, etc. Actually the Democrats have been following the 1963 45 goals of Communism playbook throughout many years.
As a result, we are now in a culture was that is becoming more kinetic because the radical Communist and their unholy platforms are losing. They are becoming desperate and fearful. The wide spread nasty hate and celebration being spread all over social media, TV shows, radio, etc. concerning Charlie Kirk are proof of their desperation. However, that too is backfiring on these demons.
With the high profile removal of that obnoxious Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Cobert from TV, the left has gone apoplectic. All the idiot leftist losing their jobs over posting their parroting talking points of hate concerning Charlie Kirk are now crying about First Amendment rights and cancel culture. This in spite of the exact opposite that they cheered and practiced just as recent as last year. Karma is a cruel master.
As Dr. King, who the Neo Marxist Democrats like to quote, just wanted “equality” and “judged by the content of a person’s character”. The grievance industry and woke cultures have turned his words into “equity” and “POC privilege” and “diversity is out strength” (DEI) . Nonetheless, the ones spewing the Charlie Kirk assassination hate and lies that are being fired are not victims of cancel culture nor of First Amendment violations, but rather being “judged by the content of their character.” 🤷♂️
I pray this terrible assassination awakens the State of Utah to the perversions it has encouraged. No more “Keep Utah Weird”. No more “majority queer” city council, or Pride and Transgender flags being called “official” flags of Salt Lake City.
King was not a great man. He is on tape participating in a gang rape and mocking the victim. He didn’t believe in color blindness. He supported everything the communists who backed him supported. No one on our side should ever invoke him as some moral beacon.
Apologies for the flag! Misread King or Kirk.
Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and Candace Owens need to read this piece. NYT is already quoting Tucker!
I think it’s Qatar talking through Tucker and Candace.
And/or the uniparty.
What is driving Candace so hard over Israel? The Daily Mail did an interview today and it is a doosie. I had some respect for her in the past but no longer. She is using Mr. Kirk’s death apparently for her own gain. And trying to drive a wedge between us on the Conservative side.
Yep, even in Rumble they are pushing very hard for Nick Fuentes podcast. Never watch him and yet that the first they promote as editor’s pick? Why?
I never watch any of the podcasts Rumble consistently pushes to the front. I always have to try and find what I want to hear.
” However, blaming Israel for every evil enterprise taking place within the U.S. body politic is not a good idea.”
Blaming Israel (the Jews) for even far less than every evil is not simply not a good idea, it is demented and is itself evil.
Yes, unfortunately I have grown weary of the ongoing Jew hatred and blaming on this site. There are some great insights here at times but objective truth has become obscure. Self righteous and blinding arrogance is flourishing.
“The MAGA tent needs to be very careful, thinking carefully about who benefits when the colosseum crowd begins throwing stones. ” and “it was not Democrats who benefitted most from the destruction of the Tea Party in 2012, it was the Mitch McConnell, John McCain, and the Lindsey Graham professional wing of the GOP who benefitted.”
So well stated and it needed to be said.
Say
How is kimmel a martyr when it was Charlie that is dead
Kind of like how Biden was in the White House when it was President Trump who was elected.
^^^ THIS! ^^^
Sundance always nails it!!! Thank God for the Conservative Treehouse.
Post a sign on a pole
Understood.
No matter how the MAGA movement and Trump agenda progresses when the dems get back in power they will smash us to bits.
Congress has made sure to keep the status quo on the books so most of what Trump has done is easily reversible.
You are correct.
Why is it hard to have a nuanced view of Israel, nowadays?
It is indeed curious how some people only ever see negativity in our alliance with Israel, when it truly started and how it differed thru different administrations and situations.
made me laugh. I’d planned on enlisting in the Navy, as had both brothers, my father and my uncle. kept putting it off after a great summer. Dec. 1st of that year, ’69, got me up to the recruiting office next day as i was # 5 in the draft!
“If we don’t want to see the Nikki Haley, Jeb Bush, Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz elements reemerge in out-scaled influence, then don’t fuel their bank accounts”
But what if I don’t hate Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz ?
What if I actually like Tim Scott, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz ?
Or is that not allowed.
You look lost. But nothing wrong with that. I probably look lost to you thinking otherwise.
You can like whomever you want.
Voting for people who do not have our country’s — or our — best interest at heart is a different thing altogether.

This is yet another angle of the left’s well-honed projection. From abuser to victim. “I was just joking” said the bully.
The new and leftist approved American Stockholm Syndrome.
re: “When the govt (think FBI) doesn’t provide details of events, generally the first reaction is to think they are hiding something. However, often the motive is to purposefully create a void where ‘conspiracies’ can thrive.”
Does no one remember how certain key details of ‘crime’ are sometimes withheld IN ORDER TO have a ‘verifying fact’ or two WHEN it comes to working to identify a suspect or suspects who come forward SOMETIMES just to get attention? WHEN indeed they were NOT involved at all, and this ‘reserved fact’ serves to allow them to VERIFY that a particular suspect that comes forward IS INDEED the actual perp?
I recall certain details for instance were withheld about the Zodiac Killer, since they had a small stream of ‘confessors’ in the public coming forward who just wanted the attention of police and the press …
Yes.
But I also remember the FBI-sponsored Whitmer kidnapping plot. Nine feckless dope smokers got sent to prison after succumbing to FBI entrapment.
???
Not comparable; They new who they had with the Witmer thing going in. There was no manhunt to find the perps, perps were well-known, enlisted even, as it were …

Thought I’d just try the mom thing of telling the kids to ‘Shut-up up there,’ but instead flagged all his further comments and he is no longer with us. . .
Just two thoughts.
Conservatives generally reject, shun and excommunicate their crazies while the Left embraces theirs.
Israel and the U.S. need to be allies in the battle for Western Civilization against savage Mohammedan mutants who are fully allied with our domestic Left.
Be allies with Israel ? Oh my! You can’t be serious.
Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Douglas Macgregor, the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, ISIS, al-Qaeda, and Hamas would never approve of that!
“The MAGA tent needs to be very careful, thinking carefully about who benefits when the colosseum crowd begins throwing stones. “
That sounds very Machiavellian.
How about going by what is right and what is wrong rather than simply who benefits?
Isn’t that what Charlie would want?
Well, the Bible encourages shrewdness, as Jesus advises in Matthew 10:16 to be “wise as serpents and innocent as doves,” urging discernment in navigating challenges. Proverbs 14:15 warns against naivety, stating, “The simple believe anything, but the prudent give thought to their steps,” emphasizing careful judgment. Presumption is cautioned against in Proverbs 16:18, which says, “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall,” highlighting the danger of assuming without humility or evidence. SD is right.
Well I used to listen to Tucker regularly, took 2 podcasts of the same guest, to turn my stomach, saw an advertisement for Fuentes proving Tucker was a CIA agent. Found out who Fuentes really was and had no interest in him. Made me wonder if Fuentes was on to something though. I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed but I figured that after Candace hopped on board.
The above photo of the black Marxist is very appropriate. I would have like to see him debate Charley Kirk. But that would never have happened because he would expose how little he knows.
Ad Rem – we appear to have a new troll bombing the thread…could you verify if Marine 1 is a new poster or give them a warning to stop the all caps off topic posting?
I blocked them about an hour ago….but I better check their posting history to make sure I got them all. Spam…UGH!!!
God bless you and all of the other Admins – it may feel like a thankless job but please know how appreciated you are!! You keep our little Treehouse safe from vultures and other predatory birds! We know it but sometimes we forget to say it!!
😘 😘 😘
You do know, we are able to avert our eyes if we so wish???
You know, we are able to refrain from making snarky and unnecessary comments, if we so wish, as well?
The poster that I referenced had well over a dozen long, rambling, invective filled posts, mostly in all caps, that had nothing to do with Sundance’s excellent commentary!
I wasn’t just bothering Ad Rem because someone made a comment I didn’t like!
Many of us were busy flagging his bizarre comments — focused mostly at AggieGirl which is creepy by itself — made by the guy who either doxxed himself or doxxed someone else, online, here at the Treehouse.
I’m glad you made it a point to call him out to Ad Rem, Vikingmom.
GOP is the party of domestic tranquility.
Democrats are the party of constant revolution.
Democrats have exhausted the sensibilities of the American voter.
The money will definitely coalesce around some “alternative” you can count on it.

There would be NO left….

I look at the people on the left through the lens of wokeness. When you are woke, you believe that there are “oppressed” people and “oppressors.” You don’t want to be an “oppressor.” So the woke person must support and protect the “oppressed” minorities. If they support the “oppressed” they feel virtuous. If they do not support and protect the “oppressed,” they consider themselves racist and/or an “oppressor.”
Now the reality is that people are not all virtuous or all aggressor. We are all mixtures. On some occasions we may be victimized, on other occasions we may be the aggressor. If we can own our aggression we can control it and we can become mature adults. But people who are woke do not own their aggression. They disown their aggression and they project it onto us, conservatives, and call us “fascists.” They feel they are virtuous insofar as they protect and support “oppressors.”
So because they disown their aggression, THEY CANNOT CONTROL OR REGULATE THEIR AGGRESSION. Because they feel victimized by the “aggressors, the conservatives, the fascists,” anything they feel like doing to their perceived victimizer feels 100% justified to them. THAT IS WHY THE LEFT HAS A VIOLENCE PROBLEM. It is because they disown and project their aggression onto others and thus cannot control the aggression inside of them.
The other problem with wokeism besides the fact that no one is all good and no one is all bad, is that the concept of “oppressed” and “oppressors” isn’t real. It’s an invention of Marxists being used as a propaganda tool to appeal to young people.
For instance a lot of young people today have fallen into the trap of believing Hamas’s propaganda: the idea that Israel is committing genocide. If you look at the population of the Palestinians, their population has increased by about 90% in the past 10 years. That’s some genocide!
But young people fall for it because in today’s world few people want to support the Jews of Israel. It is much easier to believe Hamas’s propaganda than to look into the facts for yourself and find that the population that increases over time cannot be experiencing genocide.
Since October 7th, I have experienced a lot of antisemitic sentiment online and in social media. I never before experienced any antisemitism, but the propaganda being put out by Qatar and others to make Israel look bad has been very successful. Hamas committed genocide against Israelis on the 7th of October and then whipped Palestinian and Muslims around the world into a frenzy of Jew hatred which seems to have had a life of its own. Before Israel even took military action there were marches against Israel saying Israel is committing genocide. Posters all ready to go for thousands of people in the UK and here in the USA.
All I ask is for people to remember there is a holocaust against the Jews in every generation in human history. Think about it. The criticisms I am hearing about Israel seem to be that Israel gets $3.8 billion dollars of aid from the US. They use that for weapons system that are made by the US. If they didn’t. make those deals and contracts with the US they might purchase weapons from some other country or they might manufacture them in Israel. With the prominence of criticisms against Israel and this $3.8 billion dollars in aid, Israel is seriously considering manufacturing their own weapons systems and then they won’t be receiving any “aid.”
If there are criticisms about Israel committing genocide all I can say is these are completely made up. There is absolutely no reality to these claims. As usual mass murdering terrorists turn reality on its head, and claim others do the things that they do. I hope people don’t fall into the trap of thinking mass murdering terrorists are telling you the truth.
Right here, on this comment thread and despite Sundance’s call for caution, I’ve read about Israelis “machine-gunning women and children”. Reiterated by four more such claims with identical wording. Each got upvoted.
Where is this coming from?
Repeating the Big Lie is a powerful psywar weapon. When freedom of speech justifies incitement, violence is no surprise.
The well-organized and funded protest marches have at least one documented enemy connection: China. Those who cite the Gray Zone and Max Blumenthal are unaware of its Iranian sponsors. Or maybe it doesn’t matter to them, their bias is just confirmed.
If it’s reached this branch of our American Tree of Life, then it’s terrifying. All the Bible verses and sincere prayers seem insufficient in this context.
Maybe Peloni and Laura can be convinced to drop by the Treehouse?
All people had to do was to be fully against murdering someone for their political opinions.
That was the moral test. Shocking how many seem to have failed it.
Except every poor worker who becomes sick and let go from their job ends up without Medicaid or the ACA per the new GOP budge. Same goes for people who are let go for any reason from their job, corporate restructuring for example, and is stricken with disease before they can find a new job is also left to twist in the wind. When they enter the late stage of serious frailty or total disability then they can apply for some aid. In the meanwhile, because of the GOP’s “big beautiful bill” they will deform, deteriorate, etc. apart from healthcare. And no one is hiring such in this new world of offshored industries, outsouced work to foreign firms, and mass immigration to the tune that as of the May 2025 BLS report 19.2% of the entire civilian workforce in the U.S. is foreign born.
Yes, the Democrat Party now stands on depravity and are under the control of the wealthy; but the GOP is under the control the wealthy too and that’s why they turned like a scorpion to harm the poor who get stuck in the “big beautiful bill” without healthcare (as their student loan interest continues driving the principle when this happens). It’s because the people who pay the politicians to do their bidding view poor U.S. citizens who get ill as disposable. Unless they are driving their wealth, then they are nothing except worn out things to be disposed of. Marxism couldn’t exist in anything but such an environment. It will be interesting to watch the news stories as millions of poor working Americans who were born and raised here in the United States enter great suffering, along with their families, due to being denied even the ability for subsidized healthcare.
Will a third party form from that small minority of politicians that are moderate and who have had enough of it? It won’t be Musk’s party. Voters aren’t lining up for more white-collar immigration/visas and more government subsidies to Musk’s businesses to accelerate his wealth faster. No. There will have to be a MAGA solution without the scorpion tail harming U.S. citizens who get sick. Nobody cares now, but stay tuned. Stay tuned. It starts the end of 2026 and I predict that it’s going to grow into a political misstep for the Republican Party.
Read VLAD LENIN’s 1907/08 Far Leftist pamphlet entitled WHAT MUST WE DO? It directly lays out the course of HISTORY since he, Trotsky and their BOLSHEVIKs were successful in RED SQUARE in October 1917! Every violent, destructive moment was clearly presaged in Lenin’s own 115 year old words! I have been shouting LENIN’S ‘warning’ from the rooftops since Hilary Clinton and her Saul Allinsky adherence came to the forefront in 1994 or so….I have acquired the public apellation of ‘curmudgeon’…I haven’t allowed the young to enjoy the fruits of their REVOLUTION!
In Indiana, our Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General are investigating complaints of inappropriate comments promoting violent responses to Charlie Kirk’s death. They are making a list, checking it twice, and then they’ll release a list of who’s naughty and nice!

Thank you Sundance. Your wisdom on the many turns this mess takes is appreciated.
To everyone else, remember, we cannot expect to change the minds of anyone we debate whether it is at the dining table over the holidays or on a street corner. Similarly, if our voices are denounced as ‘wrong’ because we are not 100% behind someone else’s objective or point, let them. There is no reason to be upset. You are the master of your own mind.
Thank you for this post.
This is so well thought out and written Sundance.
May I also add to what is already a stellar warning to heed and pay close attention to the following.
I am MAGA , voted 3x for Trump and support him and and the America 1st Agenda.
But I am not in a cult and am capable of rational thinking and can accurately critique the President and those in the administration when applicable.
My addition – MAGA voters must call out and pressure the administration to stop the off the cuff statements which only provide the left ammo to drive the narratives you described.
POTUS is feeding the enemy when he sloppily tries to attack his political opponents and serves up direct quotes that can be used to highlight then gaslight he is a tyrannical authoritarian leader. He needs to be tightly scripted on the issues of the day -National Guard into cities, deportations, cancel culture of leftists ect. ” They cannot criticize me ” Trump claims about media is counter productive to say the least. There are many examples I could list but suffice to say he must tighten up and be more strategic ehen he performatively designs his ‘wandering rambling attacks !
Pam Bondi’s absurd commentary on hate speech equally gives ammo to the left and will be clipped and run on a loop during midterm campaigns.
Then you have FCC Carr who stepped in it up to his ears!
Sundance is 100% correct . The left spent years screaming “Project 2025, Fascism , unconstitutional , threat to our Democracy , Nazi, and the rest.”
Only to drive narratives which caused leftist indoctrination based on falsehoods to spark events of violence and an acute response from the right.
Now they will gaslight the narrative that fits the “Project 2025, Fascism , unconstitutional , threat to our Democracy , Nazi, and the rest.” and say see we told you so.
The enemy is cunning , clever, and brilliant.
No need to help them along.
Cult?
I think she means Israel-Firsters.
The enemy is cunning, clever, and brilliant and they have the ability to use their abundant resources to spin/manage communications to influence the electorate.
As much as I support President Trump and agree with his off the cuff comments, it’s who he is and the way he feels, it sometimes can turn people off. The enemy then can spin and lie to make him into something he is not.
I remember back in the 2016 race calling someone fat, stupid, horseface or having a food fight with Rosie O’Donnell may be satisfying, but turns some people off. How many times have we heard, I don’t like his personality, but I support what he’s doing as a reason to vote for him. I really am not trying to be negative, but helpful to keep and grow MAGA.
Also, why don’t we have a conversation on what Kind Of Country Do We Want- Define MAGA and what the goal is instead of letting the enemy define it and President Trump with spin, misinformation and lies.
Marketing and message control is essential to combat the amount of resources and access MAGA enemies have to influence.
JMHO
send him home to Mama…..and keep his coat 🤣
Without his “personality” would he have been successful? Would we better off with a Bush, Romney, or Pence who have a very measured and non-controversial tone.
We can always Monday morning quarterback the man. He says a lot of things that offend people, but in the fullness of time prove to be right.
Sometimes the quarterback gets criticized for ad-libbing and scrambling, but the results are what matter. Bush was more diplomatic and toned down, how did that work out for him and us.
Not saying he should not say things with strong convictions and strong convincing rhetoric, but calling a woman fat, stupid or horseface doesn’t seem
to be a wise choice of words, maybe you do.
In fact, I LIKE Romney, Cruz, and Pence’s speaking styles.
And the NYC dialect still sets my teeth on edge. (Ben Shapiro – I turn the sound off and read the subtitles.)
….Does that make me raycyst ?? !!….
But PT’s substantive content throws style preferences off the plate. WHAT he’s saying is where I’m at.
Nobody can change PT’s style.
Most MAGA wouldn’t want to. And even those of us who would, well, we just brush off abrasive comments.
His enemies will ALWAYS find the yummy soundbite. Or make up something nasty that seems like a Trumpism.
Your idea about a conversation that defines the movement is really good. Not only for marketing but also to clear the air within our own ranks. Open and honest; tolerant, but no repressive tolerance.
Absolutely agree and have been stating this while reading emotionally charged but overreacting comments. We do not need more laws or executive orders to go after ANTIFA and organizations funding violence.
What we do need is to listen to people like Mike Benz, who details how for decades, those in Ckngress who have been funding the off book SECRET CIA and State Dept cutouts like USAID, which they are one of many, who have been given billions through our budgets, who employ NGO’s who have created the trans community worldwide to create overthrow and coups. Who have funded the censorship worldwide, especially in Europe, and have rigged elections to promote the leftist political turn in Europe, only to have it exported back to our country. Our biggest threats are politicians of corruption who have been planning and funding this countries demise.
All that Trump and the DOJ needs is to fully investigate using current laws and arrest the criminals. We only need the focus,determination and intestinal fortitude to do it.
I would not ask him to slow down.
The issue that EW3568 raised was mainly about the need to speak carefully, not about any need to slow down.
I agree with the points EW3568 made.
Marxist hate Fascist. When calling us Fascists the Democrat Political Party is not targeting us per se, but is directly messaging to their pro Marxist/Antifa agitators et al to continue their hostilities. They are trying usurp the word democracy for themselves as EW3568 nicely says above.
America First, MAGA, us you and me, must respond to these verbal attacks with the voice of the REAL democracy “individual: capitalists: that we are.
We must deflect their corrupted message back upon their own ilk. Do not allow them to own the word – democracy. MArxist do not have democracy anywhere in the DNA, neither does a fascist. Let them fight among themselves be it a Marxist or fascist.
They say “fascist” when they think they would get too much pushback for saying Hitler. Rest assured, they are always thinking Hitler.
They want us dead.
I agree with Sundance almost 100%, and I agree with you, but you know as well as I that we’ve wished POTUS would stop the off the cuff for ten years now. Unfortunately, he’s not going to stop. His point of view is out the windshield and not the rear view mirror.
Great comments. MAGA should be aware that the dem socialists will take what they were doing when they were in power, and their persecutions and needless imprisonments forget ALL of that and accuse MAGA of intrusion onto freedom of speech. Accusations are not facts. The dems use media with FCC licenses as propaganda arms of their own party. Let us not forget that. That has to change and the media should be more balanced. Unfortunately they are not, because there is no need to when they receive money from their donors/advertisers. The same folks fighting Trump and wanting him to rot in prison for 300 years.
FCC guy did great and he is right, sure he could have said it a different way, but his intentions are correct. I am tired of conservatives giving in and talking out of the both sides of their mouths. (Cruz and other pseudo- MAGA types Tucker(maybe)). We know it is not an infringement of speech to ask a media company to cover the news fairly without slanting it to one side 97 percent of the time. After all we went through after they went after MAGA during the last 4 years, I will give him a pass if the FCC Chair said his words less than eloquently. I am sure he learned his lesson and will think about how the dems will use his words against the movement. That being said, your post was solid. Thank you.
Thank You
