I am pretty sure (well, almost positive) that I’ve been banned from CTH. I can’t like, reply, or post comments. Circumstances being what they are, I have to assume banning to be the case.
I had been posting more and more on CTH in the last couple of days, and the thought of GOING BACK in a bigger way had crossed my mind. I don’t believe that I said anything to precipitate a ban. However, at that very moment when retreat was possible, and moreover in my thoughts, the avenue of retreat was CUT OFF. It was almost as if somebody was reading my mind.
Think about that. I have thought about it, and some of it is familiar. (And no – I am not talking about “MK Ultra”. I’m talking about smart people.)
There are many reasons this could have happened. Some are good, some are bad, from my point of view. Some are good for MAGA, some are bad for MAGA, from different points of view.
I have generally found that when allies screw me openly but somewhat inexplicably, it’s for a good reason, and they may actually be helping me MORE underneath it all. In any case, in such circumstances, those allies are always HELPING THEMSELVES because they NEED TO DO IT. Even more importantly, it will be for a reason I agree with, because it is something I would do if I were in their shoes. It will be the RIGHT THING TO DO.
Thus, I don’t hold any kind of recrimination here, but I have to say that I will MISS CTH very much. That’s OK. Sometimes one has to hit the road and move along. We have to grow up.
Two MAGA blogs – one with Q and one without, seems like a very good idea, too.
So – goodbye to the comments section of CTH and the posters there. I will miss you all. But I will still be reading CTH, and enjoying Sundance’s great thoughts.
Please feel free to comment in any way you want. I know some people here are very sore about being banned, and that’s OK. Let it out. Others are very happy to have landed here. Let that out, too. Some of you can likely still post on the Treehouse, and I hope you will (but not about Q). It doesn’t matter – we are all “Q refugees” now.
We believe what we believe. Even if the entire world is against us.
There is a plan. Our VSGPOTUS knows something about it. We can TRUST THE PLAN.
W
Great attitude, best response! Take your comments elsewhere, spread the knowledge.
Thanks!
Time to get out of Dad’s basement! 😉 LOL!
Well, well, well….. Welcome to the ranks of the BANNED at CTH. (For no good reason)
Glad you got this site up and growing just in the nick of time.
Many of CTH’s Smarter commenters are already here and many more will come.
Trump on! (With some help from Q)
CTH + QTH = CROSSFIRE HURRICANE FOR DEEP STATE! 😉
I have been corresponding with SteveinCO and georgiafl via email for over a year. Steve was banned from CTH about a year ago. Georgiafl was banned about 4 months ago. I can’t tell you how angry that made me. I didn’t share that on CTH out of fear I would be banned. It has been a dirty secret that I have been holding onto.
I am so grateful to have been told about this site. I wrote the two of them to come and join us. Differering opinions should always be welcomed. We are all adults and shouldn’t be treated like 5 year old children.
Wolfmoon you have my word that if you would like, I can send you articles and possible write ups if you want to post to your site. Not to get back at CTH but to get the good, the bad and the ugly out there for folks that may not have the time.
Great to see you here, Felice!
I’m not the only one here looking forward to your prescient insights.
I had wondered about Georgiafl.
Did she ever leave a comment that should have been banned? Not in my (humble) opinion. I’m now wondering what I missed.
Wow.
Hoping she — and SteveinCO — find their way here.
Felice, may God continue to bless you and yours, both in New York and Florida.
I have no doubt I will be just one of many who are cheering right now and second your comment, churchmouse, to the moon and back (as my granddaughter likes to say)! So glad to have flep here!!!!
We never know who we might see here. 🙂
Reminds me of, “to the moon, Alice.” Feeling kind of sheepish as I have not yet been banned. Really have not posted much on CTH lately at all, but last evening I actually considered making a controversial comment. Lol.
Thanks 🙏! Regrettably you aren’t informed that you are banned. You find out when you try to post a comment and your blocked from doing so.
Thanks, I will let you know when/if I am banned.
Were you banned, then came here?
No I was told about it from a few people I email with.
Hmm. Interesting.
Sorry, I misinterpreted your comment.
I thought you were banned from commenting at CTH, which was why I wrote, ‘Hmm. Interesting’.
Then I saw a comment of yours at CTH today from Nov. 14. I completely misunderstood.
You know, I think it happened to me a few months back, about the time GeorgiaFL was banned. I didn’t understand at the time, I thought I was having WordPress problems. I emailed the CTH, and within a few days it was working again.
I was a Sessions supporter on there, too. Not very vocal, but liking and supporting other’s comments. I made a few pro-Sessions references on my own.
So disappointing to me that Sundance and the gang are anti-free speech! I love debate and different opinions.
fleporeblog:
Good to see you here.
Some of the best Treepers have disappeared over the last few years that I have followed CTH.
But the ‘Q Man Bad” thread seems to have resulted in combination of a mass exodus and an exile.
I will still be reading at CTH, as Sundance has been a beacon of hope for many of us. His is work is top shelf, in my opinion, and there are still several commenters that provide invaluable insight (you being one of them).
Why it seems like only yesterday that someone here hoped that you would find your way here.
Nice!
😂
It’s a small internet! 😉
tomf, More proof! What you think about, you bring about! 🙂
Funny you mentioned georgiafl. I did wonder what happened to her. I assumed that she left because of the non-stop Sessions bashing (I remember her being such a strong supporter). Just wow 🙁
It is sooo good to see you here, Fle!
— waves, furiously
I had wondered what happened to SteveinCo and Georgiafl, I liked them…and I don’t remember either of them posting anything offensive.
Thanks for contacting them.
I hope they join us!
I fled the CTH last week when the pettiness and smallness became too embarrassing to watch.
Divisiveness and discord is allowed to stand…but faithful Trump supporters are mercilessly attacked.
Innocent Treepers are banned.
Scapegoating is being promoted.
It is a truly sad thing to behold.
Again…it is great to see you here, Fle!
Hope you will stick around.
I will! It is great to be in a place that people can see the big picture rather than arguing over petty stuff.
Love your avatar. The exquisite look of MOAB DESCENDING! 😎
Flep, Remember how Reagan described the big picture at a UN Speech?
Fle, so happy you and most of the treepers whom I grew to respect over the last four years are here.
This is starting to compile like the reunion at Galt’s hidden valley.
Flep, so nice you are here, have appreciated your posts so much on cth and now here. Have learned a lot from you. Wolfmoon, you do have a great attitude. My instinct is to say, if you are banned, it might be temporary—I tend not to like change, but your attitude about it is really wiser.
As Travis Tritt says “It’s a great day to be alive”
I am so glad to of found all the treepers I miss on cth.
when i was a kid in church there would be times when things would be stressful between people – lots of times someone would leave the church or stop coming slowly or whatever. if they stopped coming over a period of time nobody would go and welcome them back, or if they did and were rebuffed they gave up out of hand.
i always thought it was strange, but one day a sermon was the thought about the enemy – how they are always coming at you, even if you push them back they regroup and come back again. they enlist more allies and forces to help them…but why was it with christian’s we always seem to kill our own wounded instead of bringing them back in and working on things? i have never forgotten that because it is true. that was about “christians” specifically, but it follows also in conservative movements in general.
When I ended my affiliation with my church which my family had been on the rolls since the early 60s not one member of the congregation called or sought me out to ask why my family had severed ties. its been over 10 years and I still see members around town and they avoid me. I find that very sad. I did call the pastor and ask for communion which he gave me and we had a brief chat about general things but that was that. something is so very wrong with our society. I am house bound most of the time these days, was busy fighting 2 cancers at one time which has left me tired and fuzzy brained lol but listen to sermons on youtube and have my bible so its all good. the world has changed so much and everyone seems so angry and in our face about it so I am just as glad to stay home and enjoy my kids and grandkids.
Having been through various incarnations of church rifts, I am familiar with this really odd behavior that you call out. You quit and no one even bothers to ask WHY? Worse, suddenly you are kind of “untouchable” in that you are now excluded from socializing with some people you thought were your friends and not just fellow parishioners.
It is hurtful. It is baffling. But boy, it is sure a real thing. I shouldn’t be but I have been astonished to discover this same type of thing happening in an online blog.
Well, we all keeping moving and find other people and other activities. We survive. But what a shame that it happens in the first place.
I’m so sorry to hear that, Sue. What a sad experience with the church, I would have expected them to be right there for you. I’m sorry to hear of your illnesses too. You sound like you are spiritually strong and your attitude is great, if anyone can beat those cancers, you can.
I’m glad you’re here and I’m glad you’re witnessing President Trump take on the battle that is needed to put this old world right again. I sure hope he can. I believe he can. Deep State didn’t expect him to last two minutes, I’m sure, yet here he is in the thick of dismantling everything, Deep State, Globalism, Communism, political and media corruption – Everything.
Amazing times.
Sue Mcdonald,
Is that your dog’s pic in the avatar ? Pitbull or Staffordshire Bull Terrier ?
My mother rescued a pitbull…outstanding sense of humor.
Sue, you are blessed with kids and grandkids and obviously your deep spiritual life. There are more politics in some churches than our Nation’s Capitol and I could write a book about that and nobody would be interested. It all provided me a unique view from Methodist to Catholic and now reminds me much of Republic and Democrat play we are all watching. I hope that offends no one because I don’t mean it as judgment or that people should not participate as the deep insight has benefited me in knowing who I am. Thank you, Sue for sharing! I think it is helpful.
you don’t need a church to worship:
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Matthew 18:20 kjv
and you can skip the formalities and go direct if you are by yourself:
“In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from the Father.”
John 16:26-27
off topic of intercession to his father for us, the disciples of course keep pestering him even though he gave a clear answer, so moments later this happens:
“His disciples said, Lo, now You are speaking plainly and are not using a figure of speech. Now we know that You know all things, and have no need for anyone to question You; by this we believe that You came from God. Jesus answered them, Do you now believe? Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”
John 16:29-33
and there’s also this as bonus inspiration:
“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
Isaiah 40:31
so you don’t need a church! they are great if you keep everything in perspective, but when there is nobody there and you are alone you are still in touch…
AMEN!!!
Absolutely agree and THANK YOU! Many paths to the same destination and side trips into unknown territories provide deep connections…
Sue, so glad you are on here with us. I think all you have been through has made you strong.
My family switched parishes and no one from the old parish, particularly the choir which was the big reason why we walked, bothered to ask why. We’re still friendly with a few people and the pastors are determined that the breach between these two side by side territories be blurred. (Ain’t happening.) So, we now have combined choir concerts in Lent. Okay, fine, but still, no one asked why we switched. In fact, the personality issues ticked off the people in the new choir. It was really rather astounding.
That church family dynamic is a bizarre and painful one and seems applicable to the great T-house split, doesn’t it? Anyone who has been part of a church family for a length of time will “get” to experience this dynamic. Often precipitated by a new pastor but other times by some seemingly innocuous bit of church business like appointing a new choir director. Feelings are hurt. Sides are taken. Families leave and go worship elsewhere.
It is painful, maddening, and when you can achieve sufficient distance from it just plain silly how we humans allow this kind of division and even seem to feed off of it in some cases.
It is weird, Sylvia. I’ve seen it too in social groups. Perhaps some are competitive? I guess human nature as it seems so widespread. I can understand the hurt, especially when you think of that group as family.
I experienced a lot of infighting at my VFW ; especially during Post Officer elections.
Too much gambling and booze. I no longer drink or frequent the VFW…much happier.
Sounds like it crops up anywhere and everywhere.
At some point I decide: This isn’t political office where the stake is peoples’ lives and livelihoods, its a hobby group or a social group and is NOT worth the gut churning stress. And I disappear.
without doxxing myself too much, i have mentioned here about a fundamental independent bible believing (baptist) church – baptist because they figured we had to pick one and that was closest to their doctrine stance.
parents joined there at some point when i was young, we all grew up there. church school, the whole shebang. so everyone you know is at this one place and i mean it honestly felt like an island sometimes. never in a bad way mind you, but i felt there was a different wavelength for sure between us and people outside our church. not an ego or anything, i was young so i just thought we believed certain things and if you believed it you would be at the church, and if you didn’t you were not at the church. so there was comfort and what not there – in our group – and when we were out in the “secular” world (aka real world) we knew our boundaries and understood every action out there for us was a potential witness for god…
anyway, long story short, you get into church politic scandals, money scandals, sex scandals, and then the inevitable dam breaks, these things come out, accusations, counter claims, church splits which happen in minutes when you see everything you’ve known for years of your life seem to maybe have not been real the whole time as the preacher describes from the pulpit how people out to sabotage him in the church are making a dash to frame him on charges that are lies…maybe even your father is involved. your friend’s dad… mothers and other’s who “spied” or what not. then out the door these people go “who’s with me folks? follow me out this door and we will start fresh”…
🙂
the second and third church splits didn’t seem as bad, and i had learned to think about stuff and view the world in many different ways and i do not regret a minute i spent in that environment or the things i learned or the lessons of knowledge that still come back to me. and it’s not the preacher that should be worshipped – it is the substance of the teaching itself. when there is pastor worship, or other factious fighting (choir, deacons, assistant pastor takeovers, you name it) the vision is lost.
i thank everyone who responded to my post with your stories. so you can see why my original post had a little backstory.
Oh yes. A familiar story! I think it is likely that everyone who has been involved in a church has gone through this. I’ve seen it happen many times with varying degrees of toxicity. It sadly seems to be a part of human nature.
So yeah, the “Great Rift” at the T-house had some elements that felt familiar in that way.
“… it’s not the preacher that should be worshipped – it is the substance of the teaching itself. when there is pastor worship, or other factious fighting (choir, deacons, assistant pastor takeovers, you name it) the vision is lost. ”
Beautifully said. Thanks for sharing your story.
Andrew, what you say is so true about Christians and conservatives. Have seen and also had these experiences myself, and it can be very painful. I still carry wounds from this happening and and have witnessed it in churches since I was very young, which I know longer am. We all need to remember it. Keep looking up until …
I know someone who was nearly driven to suicide by a toxic group in his church…
Steve, that is horrible, but I can believe it. After what I went through I awoke most mornings in tears over what happened to me, and it took me several years to heal, but the Lord is so good, and he gave me such good and true friends, and I had to forgive, which I thought I had done, and then I started to heal. I still think about it sometimes.
If I may channel your parent, ‘Well Wolf, you have gone and done it again.’ As far as I know I can still comment at CTH. I was never a frequent contributor but from time to time I would. However, there is something exhilarating about being on a project pretty close to its beginning. I enjoyed your comments at CTH and I hope to continue here. Wolf move forward and, if necessary, bark at the moon.
HOWOOOOOO! 😉
Wolfie, January is your “feast month.”
“The Full Moon for January 2019 rises on the 21st. Traditionally, this Moon was called the Full Wolf Moon.” From the Farmer’s Almanac.
AMEN!!!
Hey Wolfmoon, suddenly, I am unable to post on Treehouse either.
Did we get banned?
I think so. I have several theories and a number of them are likely classified.
Oh terrific….now I’ll be up all night trying to figure out what possible theories you may have. 😂
LOL. There’ll be a few of us doing that!
PayPal just banned BitChute. In other words, the socialists have forced their politics on both YouTube and PayPal to make YouTube (which they control, politically, via the red diaper CEO and top people) the only game in town.
We are seeing COMMUNISM being implemented through CONTROLLED CAPITALISM.
Get ready. Things are going to break. There is no way this keeps going the way it is going.
PayPal will ban all Q. Understood? Q was right.
Agree. I trust the plan……..
What about 8Chan?
Unless “THEY” shut down the Internet…
8chan should be safe. I suspect it’s a red line. If it goes, I would not want to be a “red diaper Silicon Valley hipster censor”.
Channynae, so shall I. So glad you’re here.
Nice to see you post here, Daughn.
Flep did so as well, just today.
We seem to be collecting refugees here – but, refugees based on MERIT.
Following the Trump Doctrine of Immigration! lol
We’re Q-pers, hiding in the Wolf-Den …
#MeToo
I must be too mellow in my defense of Q. I just posted and it went through.
Interesting!
What scared me today though was when It took two tries to get to wqth. The second time I received a notice saying wqth site has crashed. So obviously tried a third time and got in.
Um, as I have said previously, I am NOT good at riddles but I just had this weird idea…..can we make a list of those who have been banned? Clearly, with georgiafl and SteveO being banned before this latest Q brouhaha, it is NOT just Q. Might there be something that those who have been banned have in common? Just throwing that out there – wolfie, me, georgiafl, SteveO, and daughnworks – who else was banned fairly recently?
My best guess: questioning authority mixed with a dose of moderator myopia.
“Questioning authority…” I would take that a step further. From what I can tell, the thing that those who have been banned have in common is that anyone who disagrees or presents an alternative view, especially if intelligently done, will eventually be banned. I was banned from TCH — I guess; they wouldn’t clarify my status — when I declared that Milo’s comments were not helping the conservative cause. I also saw the polite, respectful comments of an ophthalmologist get removed because they disproved one of SD’s theories about Hillary’s eyes during the campaign.
I get tired of all the fawning comments on CTH, and some people put SD on a pedestal. That seems to be encouraged. It’s a shame that CTH has lost so many good people, but that was CTH’s choice.
The anti-Q article was disappointing in its dishonesty. I don’t care if someone chooses not to believe Q is real, but at least be factually accurate. To present a post that gets facts wrong is unacceptable for someone who says “Truth has no agenda.”
I used to post as TheseTruths and continued to read the site, so that many of the names here are familiar. I am glad to have found this site.
We were warned recently about how the tactics to divide would be rising in intensity.
Therefore I will still have the back of any treeper, no matter how they annoy me on a personal level.
I wish them well.
Who was SteveO?
Did you mean me by any chance? (I ain’t counting on it.)
YES! Welcome!!!!
Lots and lots of people–some who I’d swear weren’t around when I got banned–seem to remember me.
This feels like I’ve come home, oddly–even though I am not particularly interested in Q (I won’t deny others their right to be). Q is, I think, a post me-getting-banned-from-the-Treehouse phenomenon.
And there is always the possibility of high tech shenanigans. Imagine if the moderators are seeing content in your post that you didn’t even create? What if there was a man-in-the-middle attack where you see what your really posted and others see something else? Or what if it’s a spiritual attack where the blog owner or mods are reading motives into your words that are not truly there? It doesn’t have to be a owner-gone-tyrant scenario.
I had speculated about an advanced clown or ChiCom MITM attack earlier.
I’m still banned! 😀
I really didn’t want to “like” your comment, just your smiley face.
LOL!!!
Banned
or flagged for moderation of all comments?
I need to experiment with WP to tell. Can I block you for 1/2 hour and then YOU test what it does to your posting? I promise to let you back in 1/2 hour regardless!
I need a volunteer to be temporarily “banned”/blocked and to test out like / reply / post during that few minutes. Who will volunteer?
Please respond IMMEDIATELY if you have even SEEN this message.
Um… your proposal gives me pause. But yeah, sure, give it a try. But seeing that it took me an hour to notice your post, maybe block me for two hours to give me time to test it out.
LOL! I was wondering why you didn’t see it – that is why I asked the question. Some people are fast on refreshing and checking notifications – others less so.
Not a problem – I got my test – very interesting results! WP only has ONE block option that I can find.
Perhaps there are WP plug-ins that allow for finer controls?
Maybe, but I very likely won’t touch them. WordPress is already highly insecure, and I’ve had to deal with one small hack (very likely through user-contributed code, IMO) since starting this site. Plugins, apps and open-source contribution in general are a huge vector for trouble.
My .gov asset friends used to always try to get me to install stuff. Took me a while to learn to say no. Hard target. I like being a hard target.
I’ll make you a deal. When Hillary is in prison I’ll start looking at more bells and whistles in terms of site functionality! 😉 LOL!
The dot on the notifications bell is hit or miss for showing new info.
I have an ad blocking plug in on my browser that may be the problem with that.
I hear you. I’ve also noticed that the dot is not reliable, although it can be in a fresh build.
If anyone feels bad about being banned, just smile and say, “And Hillary Clinton still isn’t president.” You’ll feel better.
That’s pretty much the silver bullet for being down in the dumps.
I sometimes tell people Trump has put her in charge of Mexican snacks…She is Nacho President.
Hi, Jane. That’s good. I think I can still post on cth. Not sure what that says about me or about them. Lol. Just being funny.
Same here. Smiling as I say that.
Thank you, PlainJane.
I’m going to be as diplomatic and contained as possible.
At this point, it’s probably better that there is a separation. That way, each group can have their own space to process and discuss information (without one group infringing upon the right of the other). We all may be able to reconnect in the future once we get past this rocky period. For now, though, distance is probably not a bad thing.
That said, I’m so sorry about the ban, WM.
Thank you, and appreciate your sentiments, MysticRose! And agreed with your thoughts, too!
Well, WM, I guess I’m happy you can focus more on your new venture we are watching happen in real time. One door closes, a bigger and better door always opens! It is happening! WoooHooo!
Yes indeed! Time to invest here, methinks. 😉
it is just very sad that it had to happen. people on the web need to be able to filter and process and (not meaning this in a bad way) take in content no matter what. you get good at skipping over stuff, or knowing how the videos work, or realizing that story is really a click-bait ad to take you somewhere else, or that other people have a different opinion other than you and clogging up the comments!
cliques form everywhere, it is nature, etc. but in this time there needs to be an ability to sense who is for you and who is against you. like someone said there or here, if q is going to make a difference about any of this then 1) that’s lame and 2) so what. too late.
if ANYTHING close to what some people imagine (so take like 50% of what you could imagine would be a worst case scenario: really good would be mueller plea bargained down from 5 life sentences to 2 by being a white hat. really bad: ac keebler’s warnings were 100% true and aliens are announced) so take 50% of that: i can guarantee the amount of stuff that would matter at that time in order of importance, the identity or fandom of q isn’t going to make a damn bit of difference.
anyway, i am hoping something is going to happen to clean up our nation. do i think we’ve probably already crossed the threshold of catching it and cleaning it for ever and ever, no. do i think something incredible could happen even though we might all perish in the outcome and in the meantime we might need to seek shelter in mountainous areas? yes. that’s one of my top “feels” as the kids might say…
i even think this could possibly even be like prophetic times but don’t quote me on that.
so moral of the long rants: makes no sense to divide unless there is some kind of mega right below the surface and they want us divided.
Repost, from prior thread …
“I recused myself, in anticipation of being forcibly recused.
I wonder whether I’ll even have a shot at a single post more? Guess what? – I won’t even try …
I would, if I thought it worthwhile. (Sorry, Wolf! nobility isn’t rewarded, at present.)
I’ll wait ’til the “wash cycle” is done (“It’ll all come out in the wash!”).
Jan? Hope so.
GL, [ ]D.”
Because we follow Q, we have been told that when all this goes down, the only news available will from the Q site.
I don’t know what that means for 8 chan. I don’t know what that means for this site, but I do know that we were brought out of TCH for a reason. Social media will be down but the Q site has been upgraded and hardened several times already.
I have had major life changes that really hurt at the time, but if they had not happened, I would have been hurt much worse than having my feelings hurt.
Just say, Thank You God, have faith and stay vigilant.
Be prepared for disruption.
Remember you are not alone. There are a lot of us out here. God is with us.
Elizabeth
I’m hoping that when comms go down it will only be social media like Twitter and FB and the like. If the Internet is still up and running in any way, blogs might be okay or at least still be there after a period of blackout.
A.D. My business is highly dependent on the internet but when I think about how long I can manage without it, I just thank God I’m not a surgeon and remember Y2K!
Yeah. It does sound like it going to be a total blackout. Let’s hope we’re imaging worse than it will actually be!
Ah, but who owns WordPress?
I know BlogSpot is run by Google, so if this site were hosted there, it’d be a sitting duck when It Went Down.
Who owns WordPress? And who has WP’s cojones in a vise somewhere?
The answer to this could mean even blogs aren’t safe.
https://wordpressfoundation.org/
https://wordpressfoundation.org/philosophy/
I didn’t dig very deep there but it’s encouraging so far; it’s a sort of open source project.
Which reminds me, someone is working on building a smart phone among the same lines; all corporate spyware removed, with physical kill switches for the microphone and camera so you don’t have to worry that some app has turned them on and you’re carrying around a bug. (puri.sm)
Love it.
My guess is the blackout won’t be for very long, no matter how extensive. People will build again.
AMEN!!!
This aspect of Q’s postings about the comms going down is suddenly becoming very real. It isn’t that I didn’t believe it would happen, I did. After all, like everyone else I have watched conservative voices being removed or demonetized or shadowbanned from various platforms. It has been coming on for awhile now.
But somehow, I just never drilled down far enough. I didn’t think about what I consider a somewhat obscure part of the net known as the T-house to be a site that would find itself targeted on such a large scale.
I don’t think is coincidence that Q starts bringing up communications again right at the same time Adams, Gorka, and our former host all start joining the throngs of the “Q Bad LARP” crowd and we get told NO Q on the T-house and many banned.
I think it is sad but likely Word Press will get purged of any Q content before long and we will be scattered to the winds. Keeping us divided and without any sense of community is an important tactic of the enemy. Always has been. No matter which enemy we’re fighting.
I guess I’m going to have to scale up all my computer security and go spend time on 8 chan trying to learn how to navigate around there and learn the jargon of the place. Each piece of that sentence represents me having to step outside my comfort zone, so it is with great reluctance that I face this. Likely there will be a time before long when that is the only place we’ll have left, so I must be prepared for it.
Let’s not forget about Voat. I highly doubt that it will get shut down, as the commies don’t own it. It’s wild and woolly at times, but not near as wild and woolly as 8chan. And it’s much easier to navigate. There are currently 3 Q groups on Voat, most of which came originally from the Reddit Q subs. Here they are:
Great Awakening
https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening
The Awakening
https://voat.co/v/theawakening
QRV (this is the one that Q asked the 8chan Board Owner to start)
https://voat.co/v/QRV
All 3 have pretty much the same people on them. I’m just bringing this up in case the commies at WordPress decide to ban this blog.
Thank you Linda. I believe in my heart of hearts we need to prepare.
I’ve never checked out Voat. Have no idea even what it is although I have heard it mentioned a time or two. I will definitely put this on my Prepping for Comms Shutdown list.
Sylvia, it’s very similar to Reddit. Instead of sub-Reddits, there are sub-Voats. Each is like a forum. Once you sign up to Voat, you can subscribe to any of the sub-Voats you want and start posting. You’ll get the hang of it real quick. There are lots of good people there, but also some trolls. Just can’t get rid of them anywhere. So just ignore them.
Not familiar with Reddit, either. Heck, I’m not even modern enough to have an Instagram account much less be on the Twitter. And frankly, I rue the day I signed up for FakeBook. I never go on there any more.
But I will check out Voat. I will try to learn these scary new things.
Sylvia
This is a pleasant Voat Q-oriented forum that I check into every day, ‘The Great Awakening’, formerly on Reddit and banned, probably, because of malicious infiltrators:
https://voat.co/v/theawakening
Thanks CM, I appreciate that!
You’re most welcome!
hate speech was the reason i believe. the q folks just crossed the line and family friendly reddit could not put up with that and had to protect the internet from that.
They had infiltrators on both Reddit boards who must have posted vile things, which I did not see. In each case, they were shut down.
I read GreatAwakening and its predecessor CBTS (Calm before the Storm) regularly and never saw anything wrong with either of them.
The Voat board I directed Sylvia to is much the same: pleasant and peaceful.
Sylvia, Voat is a very good site, rather freewheeling,with some coarse language, but don’t let that scare you. Many are believers, many are not now but may be future ones.
Thanks, I’ve got quite a list of things to check out and that includes Voat.
I spent a lot of time on the T-house but now that some time has freed up 🙂 thanks to the Great Rift, I’m going to make a concerted effort to learn how to navigate around 8 chan and Voat and some other sites.
Thank you for this.
Yes, I am in the same boat, Sylvia! So outside of my comfort zone on 8-chan, and so scared I an’t figure it out.
It is so hard to find where I am supposed to be there. I am working on it.
Good luck. I think we’re gonna need it soon.
8chan is creepy until one learns to filter out the dross (anti-Semitic and pr0nographic, which the forum owner says is beyond his control [probably true]).
That said, a number of posters put up the same graphics and comments time and time again.
Me, too. I’ve got to force myself to do it because I’m afraid time is running short.
“have to scale up all my computer security”
Not really!
Just DON’T post!
It’s pretty simple, once one gets the hang of it.
First – just look. Scroll up and down, no problem.
It’s ok to click on the 8-number hyperlinks – they just take you to a different post, on a different (sometimes it’s the same) “bread”. “Bread” is the substitute for “thread”, and each DATE of the calendar has a fixed amount of posts (~700) one can peruse.
Scroll by the posts which address “Flat-earth”, or “J**s / Z**nists”, or other obvious “clown” topics trying to discredit the site. Usually, within a few posts, there’s some Anon flagging that type of stuff.
Don’t worry about the language! Price of admission …
Also, in re the nudity, usually it’s just topless stuff, posted as “thanks” for the bakers (the posters), and only once in a great while is there something really x-rated.
I’ve learned so much there! These Anons are absolutely ex-PERT at de-bunking, while at the same time allowing for what may, in fact, be true.
The only things I ever “click” on, apart from the 8-number, blue “hyperlinks” (which take one to another post), are the graphics attached as part of individual posts, and they’re text-labeled above as pictures of the “.png” or “,jpg” variety. I don’t click on movies (mp4, or YT et al), because I fear something embedded.
Clicking on any image / picture, labelled as such, expands the picture to be better viewed / read. Click on it again, and it reduces back. Sometimes, when the picture isn’t shown, a big graphic “question-mark” is used. Usually, it’s something better “covered”, if you will!
It ain’t so hard! Just DON’T POST! The 8-chans say “Lurk moar”, to warn potential STUPID participants.
Read only – it’s safe! Besides, most of the content, now, has already been removed. It’s part of the plan to use it as the comms center, coming up. When that happens, the rules will likely be more relaxed, and the admin will explicitly say how.
It’s Clown-infested, still (“shills”). At the top of the entire thread, there are administrative links for newbies (called “newfags”). The suffix “-fags” isn’t a dis – it’s just how they speak. You’ll get inured to it pretty quickly! The admin links include advice for newfags (like you!) – and it’s worth a review.
They’re research “autists” – they don’t care about most social norms, especially with language.
I think you’ll be fine!
Thank you so much for demystifying it. I can probably handle the language and dirty pics even if I don’t appreciate it. An eyeroll and scroll by works okay. I do get queasy over stupid stuff like anti-Semitism or racist comments ( in the true sense of that word).
“dirty pics”
I don’t know ANYONE who doesn’t like “bewbies”! lol!
Sigh. I had to look “bewbies” up. See what you are dealing with here? I’m not a hundred years old, but I don’t have kids keeping me in the loop, so some times I really do feel ancient! 🙂
It’s ok – I wondered whether I’d get even a SINGLE like – or, whether I should!
Have a good night, Sylvia.
LOL! Thanks for dragging me kicking and screaming into 2018!
Sylvia Avery,
Better not to tell friends and family you are a NEWFAG 🙂
Snort! If conversation lags over Thanksgiving Dinner, I can just see myself “hey everyone, guess what? I’m now a NEWFAG.” Yeah, that will wake everyone up!
LOL!!!!!
There are “Filters”, but I’m not sure how to use them.
There is a little triangle just before the name of the thread you might be interested in seeing. It looks like this:
▶Q Research General
If you click on the triangle it gives you a menu, one of which is to add filters.
PS: there is an FAQ section near the top of the page which may help, but at a quick glance I did not see anything on filters although I may have missed it, or it may be hyperlinked in another section. The FAQ the Link is hard to find but it’s at the top of the page and looks like this(look at the lower right-hand side):
Name
Email
Subject *
Comment *
File *
Select/drop/paste files here
Password (Randomized for file and post deletion; you may also set your own.)
* = required field [▶ Show post options & limits]
Confused? See the FAQ.
PPS: if anyone does dare to post a comment, just post your comment without entering any other information (like name, email, subject, etc.) It’s okay to post images or videos if you can figure out how (I cannot, yet).
PPPS: WARNING:some of the objectionable content is EXTREME
“It’s okay to post”
I say NO!
It ain’t a CHAT ROOM. The black-ops CEE EYE AAY posts there, and has tried to take it down multiple times. It isn’t a GAME.
Until it’s upgraded for comms among the masses – instead of just incredibly talented computer experts like the AUTISTS – I wouldn’t risk participating for all the tea in China.
Q just posted that Q is attacked more often than any other target except POTUS. The 8-chan board is dangerous to post on, unless one wants to become a target oneself (doxxing, sophisticated viruses, Vault7 stuff, etc.).
(The VOAT boards may be different, and safer – perhaps this is what you were referring to.)
I can’t tell you how much that explanation helps me! Thank you so much. Just signed up at Voax and it seems to be MUCH less complicated than 8Chan. I might give them another try, tho, now that I’ve got some info. Hee, hee – newfags – reminds me of the military acronym FNGs.
A couple more points:
It’s ok to “hover” ones cursor anywhere. Each post (every one is straight-line vertically oriented – no “indented” replies) has a unique number.
At the top of each post is the ID info, including this number. Sometimes, toward the far-right, are smaller 8-digit ID numbers, which indicate the posts to which the poster is replying, or which the poster is tagging as relevant.
When one “hovers” over these numbers, a sub-window appears, showing the contents of that tagged post. Hover away from the small number, and the window disappears.
Because most of the site’s contents have been memory-holed, hovering can take one to a post on a bread (the 700-post thread) which no longer exists, as a separate thread. In this way, one can find out a bit about past posts, usually only a day or so past.
Also, when one visits the qanon site itself, those blue numbered hyperlinks appear in the top ID-bar of each Q-post. When the number of digits is only three, then there are no 8-chan interpretations / posts allowed. But, when the number of digits is eight, then clicking on that blue hyperlink take one to the bread.
I haven’t tried yet to access the bread which older Q-posts DID link to, so I’m not sure if they still do. If so, one can access quite a bit of individual 8-chan posts from prior breads. If not, then, well, sorry – YOU’RE TOO LATE!
I suspect they’re lost, except to those who’ve archived them on their hard-drives.
I think that’s it! You now have the substantial whole of my advice and experience on the 8-chans.
Pass it around! We may ALL need it, soon enough!
Cheers!
I couldn’t reply directly to your post about backups and wanted to make sure you’d see it so I’m going to link to that reply here….

Would a small safe do the same? I have a Sentry 1100 safe where I keep my will, ALD, BC, DD214, etc.
Any metal box will work. In essence (and if I may go full frontal geek on you) because metal is a conductor, the entire object is at the same voltage, so something in the interior will see no electric field (which requires a change in voltage) unless it, itself has an electric charge. Way oversimplified but it’s been a long time since I slung Maxwell’s Equations around.
There are some great PRACTICAL suggestions on the internet, on how to make metal boxes maximally efficient as Faraday cages – both text on the web and videos on YouTube, and they really help demonstrate the science as well. Gotta love the internet!
Great advice post!
like everyone said all kinds of stuff already, but the thing about “the chans” or other extremely interesting and informing places on the web are i guess plagued with that kind of stuff – the language, the images, the innuendo, the lack of sarcasm tags, the inside jokes…
once you get used to what you are looking at – and honestly try and not get offended by stuff because it hardens you up a little and you can tell tongue and cheek stuff from REAL hate and you’ll probably never even come across that there because they probably wrote a REAL ironic post about why they hated you that makes you laugh even know you don’t want to.
do not post.
my other thought in general about losing communications and such: if that happens it’s probably game on and you know something is up. you can’t wait on every word of q and wait for the next instruction. even from back in the day it was like hey get people ready, get prepared, take faith, and know you are in the calm of the storm right now. being impatient everyone thought it was any day now…well all those pieces of advise were the key. honestly everything else that has happened since that initial cbts thread on four chan is a complete bonus… the amount of info that flowed those first early stages that was pure stream of consciousness research times a million. people were connecting dots and going on tangents and a conspiracy theory was born in real life right there.
as a side note, when people on those interesting internet sites set their minds to a solid plan that really excites them, there is nothing like it. it is amazing. and back in those days it was laser focus 24 hours a day for those of you that were there, you know what i mean.
Well, it’s sad if SD wants to play it that way. We are not the enemy and never have been. I guess when the Big Ugly finally cracks open with the declassification and the whole story is out, the Black Hats, the White Hats, the details, the arrests, ACTION happening, then maybe SD will feel better and come out of his self-imposed gloom.
It’s not all about Q over at CTH. Had it all been about Q a very simple message could have been used that would not alienate anybody. “Hey guys, no talking about Q, please, I don’t want all the enemy forces gunning here.” We’d have respected that and most of us would still be there.
Whatever is going on in his mind, SD let in a bunch of trolls and other unpleasant creatures and he has let them take over. He can deal with those easily enough, he’s had many years experience and can probably pick a troll a mile away, yet he’s not dealt with them at all. Instead he has turned on their targets, a portion of his own followers and treated them like they are foe.
That’s something he can only sort out for himself. Whatever his reasons, he’s a big boy and will have to shoulder responsibility for his feelings and his actions. I’m sure we’ve all heard of Tough Love.
I like it here, Wolf. We can talk openly and lightly, or we can enter serious debate and nobody resorts to petty tantrums if they disagree. Even a passionate, heated debate can be good AND be respectful. It’s the nonsensical assumptions and false logic that has decided me to not bother going back to CTH. Being pro-Q does not make any of us anti-MAGA or in any way disloyal to President Trump. For any of us to be attacked on what we thought of as home-turf, then booted out for the offense of standing up against the bullying by trolls… No, sorry, that’s not a place that’s beneficial to anybody.
The blackmail used against almost everyone in Congress, et al … works elsewhere as well.
I wish [ ]D the best.
It’s survival time – all other considerations are secondary.
My take.
Certainly. However, giving in to blackmail is not the answer, the situation just gets worse. Also I don’t really see any blackmailer saying, “Right, now alienate your followers.” More likely they’d say, “Shut it down.”
I wish him the best too. You can see that by every post I make on this. I’m thinking SD is plain worn out. He’s been working hard for literally years without a break. We all got our hopes up for quick action once President Trump was in power and have been frustrated by the necessary delay while things are lined up to work successfully against Deep State.
This latest voter fraud might have been the thing that had SD throw his hands in the air and give in. Many think nothing will be done. I think something WILL be done, but until that actually happens, none of us know.
We are all responsible for our own actions, whatever the cause or excuse may be.
“giving in to blackmail”
Blackmail WORKS.
The only defense, IMO, is bonding with others, whom one believes will help – right down to the wire. These others are quite rare, sadly, given the rampant dis-cohesion of our American society.
Our Founding Fathers were ready to sacrifice all their wealth, property, reputation, and LIFE in pursuit of a just society. We need to emulate them.
Evil knows no bounds. How does one know, until one actually has to walk in those shoes, what the decision will be? Short answer, one doesn’t. I suspect [ ]D is WALKING in these shoes, now.
Again: “ethics” is downstream from survival. How would YOU (or I, for that matter) respond to the threat of death? This is the threat of the cabal. Not only for one oneself, but for all whom one loves (family, progeny, friends, associates, etc.). And not “clean” death, either. Use your imagination.
Theory – ethical or otherwise – is absolutely USELESS in these situations. The only remedy is together-ness. “United we stand, divided we fall.” Is it any wonder that Q has been PREACHING unity, one-ness, together-ness?
We’re out of practice. And we better LEARN, right-quick, what we’ve forgotten.
The ONE thing that the cabal fears … is that we UNITE against them. Their strategy is DIVISION … so, ours must be unification. As Americans. As in being of the land of the FREE.
I suspect this site won’t last long. In this case, what do we do?
“Theory” won’t help. ACTION will. We just don’t know what action to take! It’s been over 200 years since we’ve faced this problem. We have a steep, and immediate, learning curve to master.
We need to REALLY wake up (me too, btw – right now, I’m just talkin’ – not good enough!)
All the signs are HERE.
I didn’t say blackmail doesn’t work. I’m not attacking SD or the CTH. As far as I can see, we’re all cleaving together as best we can.
Yes, we are.
I’m usually pretty good at communication! Seemingly, I must work on it a bit.
When you posted that “giving in to blackmail is not the answer”, my point was that this is a theoretical answer – and that, in practice (when one fears, legitimately, for ones life), that answer falls short.
In practice, we see that “giving in to blackmail” many times IS the only answer for survival – for those who are alone, divided, and have no others to rely on. It’s very sad.
I didn’t construe your comment to be any type of attack! And I keep in mind your reply to me the other day, that apologies aren’t necessary. Thanks for that!
S***’s getting very real, now. Time to get real – and cleaving together is just what the doctor ordered!
Cheers!
Yes, I think things are going to get rougher before they get smoother. It doesn’t help than we don’t really know what’s going on in the minds or lives of others. It’s certainly easy to worry (I’m quite good at that).
We’re all waiting for action, I know I am! When that starts, it will help all of us. We all want to see President Trump’s strength in action. I especially want to see that massive hammer come down. 🙂
Emeraldstar, “for those who are alone, divided, and have no others to rely on,” it can also be a time to stand alone for what you know to be true, believe in yourself, let the chips fall where they do and watch the reaction of those who thought they could control you. There isn’t enough money or fame in this world worth replacing who you are and if you’ve made mistakes, own them and move forward. Others will find their own courage by your actions.
I think you are right. It is bewildering to me as I don’t quite know what to do to prepare, but I’m afraid we ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
“I don’t quite know what to do to prepare”
Q asked us to save, permanently, as much info as we can. This may be something you can do.
The articles, that we see posted here from our own sphere of crowd-sourcing – why not use the memory of your own computer to save them?
The point is initiative, and to do whatever either you can think of, which may help (later), or that others can think of, which also may help.
That 1871 video from Filly. The graphic I posted from ZH. The comments, outlining the history of the CTH transformation. In short, whatever could be of value, for true history of these events we’re seeing.
Might a good role for you be as an archiver?
There are many other roles, too. I suspect that this site will go down. I suspect that the Patriots Soapbox site will go down (THEY archive, and hard-save it … but redundancy is always a good move). Even CTH posts could be saved – for knowledge for posterity’s future use.
Archiving isn’t the only idea – it’s just one. What do YOU think should be saved? YT videos, that get scrubbed within 12 hours, or less? Maybe, when you see a good one, save it immediately.
What about voting articles? What about …
The point is, if you apply yourself, you can think of something to do. Later on it may not help … but if there’s a chance that it will, whether by archiving or some other activity, it’ll be for the good.
Chase S**** politicos, and their funding. He’s been going after State positions (AG, Senators, etc.). Look into some of the deep-dives from Q, in re the pedo arrests, or the Redshields, or anything else.
I’d bet that many, many other possible activities will occur to you. Pick one, or a few – and just DO IT!
Bewildered no longer, yes?
Cheers!
Wow, LOTS of ideas! Thanks!
Also, back-up your data to a thumb drive! CRITICAL, IMO. I bought 4 – 16GB ScanDisk thumb drives (for about $15) and backed up my entire hard drive, OS and all. Come to think of it, I should do it again before the end of the year.
100% agree – the saddest part is coming to grips of where society is going altogether. we have to save screenshots and html grabs of pages in case we need to prove something in the future? that is amazingly sad. however, no time for despair because it’s out of our hands at this point.
honestly, if something big doesn’t happen i am going to feel like…well, no matter it’s good times!
I suggest people consider saving important things to a memory stick or card in case of an EMP attack or some other tech disaster, which might wipe out electronics.
@nebraskafilly
Other ways to do backups (and this will depend on the size of your hard drive): You can buy USB drives that are much, much more capacious than those memory sticks, so you can do the whole drive at once. I’d get two of them.
Whatever you decide to do, store your backup in a metal box. (It must be a *metal* box.) That will serve as a Faraday cage and EMP cannot get into it. (That’s good solid physics from engineering school, not tin foil hattery–electric fields outside a metal box can’t get into it.)
“He’s been working hard for literally years without a break.”
Yup.
I’ve only been there for about three years.
The only times I remember Sundance taking a “Break” was to do disaster relief work in the aftermath of hurricanes. And he posted about it, along with several other threads (albeit less than usual).
Then there was the ONE NIGHT in “Margaritaville”. And he posted about that, too!
He has on several occasions stepped in to the comments section to confront a particular troll on his or her comment. I don’t recall him ever having to tell the same person twice; however I also don’t recall who they were or if they ever posted again.
Not too long ago, he went off about Q (not referring to the most recent), when he posted a comment about banning anyone who dares to mention Q. I’m still not clear that was solely meant for the presidential thread or CTH altogether.
During that time, there seemed to be an exponentially increasing appearance of “new names”. He had been getting some exposure through links in comment sections of other online media and social media, and even recognition from some famous people, including Rush Limbaugh. There are also some dignitaries names that I recognize as commenters at CTH (although I can’t always tell if it’s the real deal, a pseudonym, or just someone who has the same name).
One of the websites fairly recently has been posting some of Sundances work fairly consistently ( https://aim4truth.org ). These guys are VERY intelligent and they go WAY DEEP. But they are also “Q Deniers”, and have spent some time on their website to back up their position [although I believe that they were targeting several of the “FAKE Qs” (at least PUBLICLY, which folds in nicely with my theory about Sundance)].
All the while, the pressure is building, nonstop, with so many twists and turns, and everything somehow related to one man. Pres. Trump, alone against the world.
Except that he is not alone. He has a massive and growing base, which is US.
Sundance has become so busy (and he was already pretty busy) that I think that he simply lost control.
Sundance has never steered us wrong.
He may have made mistakes, gone too far out on a limb, or took bad bait somewhere along the line. We all have. But he never “steered” us wrong.
We are in consensus that what happened with Sundance recently seemed to be “OFF”.
“Some disinfo is necessary”
Perhaps someone so full of truth simply does not excel at that.
PS: couple of points:
Much of the disappearing of good CTH posters happened during the time when the tide turned against Jeff Sessions. First, Treepers began turning against him; then they began turning on other Treepers; then many of those Treepers began either abandoning Sessions or becoming anti-Sessions altogether, joining the Sessions-bashers. It was towards the tail end of that when Sundance change his Pro-Sessions stance; Then the “Q Man Bad” thing happened.
https://aim4truth.org
The hosts of this site go by the pseudonyms Betsy Ross and Thomas Paine,
I do not know Betsy’s real name, background claims, or what her relationship is to Thomas (possibly wife).
Thomas’s “real” name (AFAIK) is Douglas Gabriel. He claims to have some kind of background in intelligence, and may be a military veteran (MI).
He [possibly considered they (as in Betsy and Thomas, et. al.)] has posted recently at CTH under the handle “Qur Spirit” (just before “Q Man Bad”; possibly the same day; I believe in the presidential thread).
Try to connect some dots here to figure out what happened.
PPS: one more thing about aim4truth:
I recall at some point, Douglas Gabriel mentioned that they are backed by a very wealthy philanthropist, but did not reveal the name.
EDIT:
OUR Spirit
NOT Our Spirit.
Freudian slip.
NOW auto correct wants to help!!
Nor’easter, I missed all of the CTH drama because I stopped spending time there when I was working on a project that took a lot of time and liking and posting became cumbersome to impossible (WM helped me fix that – TYVM!). I just happened to read a post WM had one day that linked to this site with an open invitation, if interested…anyway that’s how I landed here. I found CTH during the Trayvon Martin days and it was my information cornerstone for that long.
The project I worked on with a group of people was broad in scope and very interesting. We were able to observe some of the “splitters” whose only job seems to be a Limited Hangout giving just enough facts to spark interest and gain “followers”, fill the rest of the space with weeds that they try to convince you is green grass you will soon need to mow. They infiltrate groups to lead the participants away from each other but it is a highly organized effort that is totally compartmentalized.
So if “Betsy and Thomas” have been spotted, that is huge IMHO. It is common to see #’s of targets spike quickly and $ flow in and I am not in any way suggesting anything other that this is what I observed happening to other people some who were just getting started with youtube or websites and some that were well established. I’ve seen some comments by WM about this method of infiltration, too.
So thanks for that piece of the puzzle.
Very interesting!
i second the very interesting…
so you were able to observe in some same actual real time activity of these folks, or did you collect info for a while and sift them out and then focus on them when you had data points? do not reply if you can’t i will understand.
Andrew, observing patterns and interacting when you see apparently conflicting positions to flush out and force out clarifying statements much like one does at CTH. Then floating around you notice connections and some have no idea of the broader scope they are a part of.
Wow. I know there is “controlled opposition” out there and frankly I’ve begun to wonder about that with regards to CTH (please no one yell at me, I’m not claiming it, just wondering it), but I had no idea there was such organization.
I did wonder if SD was mad at us because we didn’t automatically follow his lead (re Sessions, Q, etc.) and that, as independent thinkers, we herd like cats.
The Left just think what they are told. The rest of us ask questions first and ponder on things outside the box.
I went to that website and immediately saw a headline hit piece on the Church. I’m not a fan of the Jesuits by any means, but really? That headline turned me away..
PlainJane, not going to speak of the headline that offended you, but apparently those people are new-age goddess worship, so I don’t frequent their sites any more.
Oooh! That explains much. I have a neice who is a cross between that and a Buddhist. Actually, I really didn’t get offended but the hair on the back of my head stood up in anger at the headline.
I’ve been a fairly big fan of Malachi Martin who exposes their liberation theology.
http://ascension-research.org/jesuits.html
I am familiar with him, Jane.
His novel Windswept House was my first exposure to his works. Wow!
Can’t reply below – THANK YOU – yet another new author for me to check out!!!!
His background and creds are quite interesting.
Blackmail…don’t know about that. There’s other thoughts I’ve had about him from time to time, namely that there is rarely an admission that the official line is incorrect on current events. The one exception to that was when a candidate was injured in a head on car accident this summer. SD specifically said what we were all thinking, that was no accident.
There’s one BIG thing I think he’s wrong about and it has to do with white hats playing black hats for the TV camera, but SD seems to take people at face value, so until this all plays out, there’s no point in pressing the issue. Admitting that error is going to be a tough pill for a lot of people to swallow no matter which way it turns out.
If I were a betting person, I would book that this move against the Q community is more to preserve the brands of SD and CTH. It’s VERY easy to be labelled right now. It happened to Gateway Pundit during the Ferguson mess. It could well be he just wants to protect what he’s built and not get targeted for boycott from advertisers and more.
Only time will tell.
Yes. I like to think if put to the test I’d choose the right side. But honestly, I haven’t been tested like this.
Even if it was something as simple as money. If S D has built an income stream that he and his family depend on and now it is threatened to be destroyed you have to worry about how you will support yourself and your family without it. And you start to wonder if you could scale back on some positions and yet still have a voice and a presence…and not be shut down financially.
I don’t know, I am simply too ignorant of how all this stuff works. But I can see in the dark reaches of the night a person making decisions that seem small to compromise to try to keep half a loaf rather than none at all and ending up someplace very different than where you began.
I concur with you Emeraldstar. It is survival time. For all of us.
I’m not sure if you’re speculating that blackmail could be behind his anti-Q article and the banning of so many. And of course I don’t know if something like that has happened. I do know that banning people who don’t toe the party line (of CTH) has been going on for years. It didn’t just start since the advent of Q. It is the way things work there.
I also do not think SD wrote an article he didn’t agree with. I believe Q is seen as a threat by some bloggers who want their readers to believe they have the best insight. When increasing numbers of readers are looking to Q for guidance and answers, and Q is supposedly in the President’s inner circle, that can be seen as competition. I’m not ascribing motives to anyone, but giving my impressions.
Isn’t it odd how kind and polite us Q folk are and yet are the ones attacked mercilessly from all side? Makes one think we’re on right track.
Exactly! There’s an awful lot of tears and gnashing of teeth going on over a bunch of people following a LARP.
The more Q is attacked, along with his anons and other followers, the more important I realize he is. Definitely we’re on the right track.
Absolutely. This is an historical pattern. I don’t want to belittle those greater examples by direct comparison with our silly little internet kerfuffle, but it is a pattern.
Q has taught us things – like paying attention to our moral foundations. I’m glad we’re listening! 😀
Love your last paragraph! I’m glad we are here, too. Time to make the most of it!
Yes. I’d say the next three months will be the roughest and most exciting (is that the right term?) period for all of us!
Yup. Agreed. Gonna be spicy.
I like spicy… I think.

“It’s not all about Q over at CTH. Had it all been about Q a very simple message could have been used that would not alienate anybody. “Hey guys, no talking about Q, please, I don’t want all the enemy forces gunning here.” We’d have respected that and most of us would still be there.
Whatever is going on in his mind, SD let in a bunch of trolls and other unpleasant creatures and he has let them take over. He can deal with those easily enough, he’s had many years experience and can probably pick a troll a mile away, yet he’s not dealt with them at all. Instead he has turned on their targets, a portion of his own followers and treated them like they are foe.”
A.D. you have hit on an essential truth here. This is part of what was so disturbing to me in the earliest hours of the Great Q Rift at the T-house.
Think strategy. PayPal is now going YouTube ban-hammer on everybody. They just banned BitChute. Think what that means to all the small timers. SD must have had advanced warning. They WILL go after Q in a huge way.
Capitalism was corrupted by socialism. Globalism was the entry wound. Get ready. This is going to be huge. They can’t keep getting away with this.
I hadn’t thought about the cash flow mechanism, but yes, this. It’s about preserving what he’s built when the SHTF. And it’s going to be MESSY!
PayPal? What the…? Blimey!
soon you won’t even be able to buy and sell without the official mark! 🙂
This reminds me of what happened to A2…getting banned because he/she responded to vicious attacks on him/her by Sessions haters. The excuse was that it was necessary to separate out the Hatfields from the McCoys. This was done without any attempt to do actual justice and get rid of the people who STARTED the fight.
Exactly. Much more going on that just Q. I suddenly found it wasn’t permissible to disagree with the pessimists. One couldn’t even be open-minded anymore.
And A2 found out it wasn’t permissible to disagree with the Sessions bashers.
Dismaying and a headscratcher. I can’t really speculate because I can’t see the inside of others’ skulls.
Yeah, we’re all trying to put the facts together. It was the Sessions bashing that got me. There were people wanting him to be hanged for treason just because he didn’t instantly swoop in and arrest Clinton. Personally I’m all for hanging those who commit treason, but hey, I do expect a trial first and they are still innocent until proven guilty.
After I first noticed all this, I honestly thought it was the influx of newbies… but the banning of good people? I didn’t even know the extent of that until I came here and found a bunch of banned people, familiar names I thought had just grown tired and moved on. Not so!
CTH is not what it seems. Not anymore anyway.
I can sort of understand why I was banned, and I have no beef with it (I’ve even donated money AFTER I was banned). A2’s story was just so flat out unjust that it blew me away.
It was like flipping a switch, the day the Sessions Bashers went from being a minority to having the upper hand. Then the Q ban.
Wow, that was pretty decent of you, donating money after being banned. I don’t think I could be that magnanimous.
I did think the pessimism would melt away once things started moving, but everything just blew up first.
And we really Do Not Know that things will move. It’s speculative.
Oh things will move. Nothing remains stagnant for long and in this political bun fight, movement will be vibrant to say the least. Exactly which way and how far any of that movement goes is what’s speculative. 🙂
True enough!!
I was certainly thinking specifically of some Big Thing going down that would hurt the Left, be it pedo sweeps, massive arrests for election fraud, etc. Something that might qualify as the Big Ugly.
I’m just not sure that’s ever going to happen.
The past two years has seen lots of things line up. Laws, rules, people. I think something will hit and hit hard. The Left knows it, hence the panic to claw back power anyway they can. This is their last chance and they so nearly had it all.
I admit to be surprised and disappointed that they “won” back the House. I’m hoping all this voter fraud turns out to be a massive sting, but again we cannot know that until the crunch actually takes place. I cannot see President Trump ignoring it however. He knows well enough that there will be a level of fraud so massive in 2020 so as to sweep him away and he will not be in a position to fight it then.
He also undoubtedly knows that they will deal brutally with him, his family, his team and their families, and all his voters. Remember that tweet? Something about “it’s not enough to defeat him, he must be destroyed completely. His kind must never rise again.”
They will make an ugly example of him, and all associated with his efforts, as a warning for generations to come not EVER AGAIN mess with globalists and their plans.
If President Trump knows that, or even suspects it, he will fight with every ounce of his being. Not just for his family and voters, but for America. I think he is very aware of what’s at stake.
This is why I can’t quite “get” people who seem to imagine he’s totally oblivious to all of this.
On the other hand, it really does seem as if nothing at all has happened on these fronts.
I just have to bide my time and hope something awesome is in the works, because there’s not a Damned Thing I can do about it one way or the other.
Certainly nothing much has been visible on the surface. Seeing things line up behind the scenes is a good sign, though, and it’s interesting how desperate the Left was to stop Kavenaugh’s nomination. There’s power there, having him on the Supreme Court.
I expect interesting times ahead to say the least, but waiting for it is painful sometimes, for sure.
And, oh yeah… no more money for him now given the way he’s treating OTHER people.
Okay. It’s been said before but it applies here – if you are taking flak you are over the target.
However, there is another possibility – that this is part of a disinfo op by SD. Make it appear that the big hate is going on between two sections/factions of the Trump Universe. Purpose – make us appear to be weaker than we really are or to draw the enemy into a box canyon for annihilation.
Regardless, my life is slightly altered. Slightly.
AMEN! I hear you. There is definitely maximum smoke and mirrors right now. That usually means BOOMS are about to be heard! Stay ready, my friends! We don’t know what’s coming! But we TRUST THE PLAN!
“THE PLAN”
I believe this is what was outlined in what has been coined “The Speech That Got Trump Elected”.
Wonder who all have been writing that speech.
https://youtu.be/szaKnOhJbow
That speech is actually pasted-together bits and pieces from a rally he held in Florida. He never actually recited that in the form you see it there.
It was, however, the video that turned me from someone who was going to vote for Trump because he was not Hitlary, to someone who was going to vote for Trump because he was Trump.
First time replying here after lurking and still only lurking on Treehouse (but going there less). IMHO you should email Sundance and ask about this. Great forum here, WM!
Thank you! I may do that – or I may not. There is so much smoke and mirrors right now – usually the precursor of BOOMS – and we want BOOMS, don’t we? 😉 YES WE DO!!!
I am leaning toward the idea that I’d rather not put Sundance on the spot. Let’s just see what happens! 😉
Glad you’re no longer lurking! Enjoy the show! 😎
Yup, we all want more BOOMS and to hear them rather than only happening in the background, unheard/unseen. But I trust in the plan, President Trump, and all who are in Q.
It is probably for the best that you don’t email SD. BTW, I’ve dropped both Sundance and Scott Adams after their unsubstantiated anti-Q comments. The fact that both of them did not have good reasons for their comments means to me that something is up and they think taking these actions will preserve their websites/Twitter presence when more censorship starts. Personally I think we will eventually only get our Q news from 8 chan, at least until President Trump strikes back.
Checked in briefly. It appears I am enough of a listener that I can still like & respond, but choose not to respond. 🙂
Smart move, IMO. Keep that power in reserve. 😉
I just went over there to see if I have been banned. I don’t think so. I just read some comments on the daily thread and hit like for a few innocuous comments made by some “board friends” over there just as a way of saying hi so they’ll know I’m still alive. I waited awhile and watched, and my likes seemingly “took” and didn’t revert back to nothing, so I’m thinking I could post.
I didn’t want to post about anything, have nothing to say over there for now, but I wanted to test it out. As you say, in case it is needed down the road.
I don’t remember for sure but I think you can “like” because it is within WP. I was able to like but my comment didn’t post. When I click on the bell icon, my comments and any replies on both sites show up in the notification list. If you sign into one, you are signed into both automatically, I think.
Ah, that could explain it.
The bell and your likes and replies from all the word press sites seem to be showing up at all the wordpress sites you frequent.
YesterdayI started commenting at a a new AIP recipe site that uses wordpress. A reply to a question I asked at the recipe site appeared under the bell when I poked in to wqth.com. Same with CTH site.
That was what I figured was happening. It happens in Disqus as well.
When I got banned, I was no longer able to “like” things over there either.
Huh…..well, maybe I’m not banned. I might try replying to a question about ALDs (advanced living directives) someone asked just to find out.
Huh….. just had someone reply to an older comment of mine and my reply to them posted at CTH. Guess I am not banned then, which would be why I could still like. Alrighty then – nice to know.
Interesting!
Yeah, you’re just going to have to try harder to earn that honor. 😀
LOL
Dang, that was quick!
A theory I’m playing with is that those who can see a “Leave a Reply” box, but the comment doesn’t show up after hitting the “Post Comment” button could mean your account has been flagged to send comments into the “Moderation” bucket, not the “Direct to Thread” bucket.
Not banning, just keeping an eye on those so flagged.
I need a volunteer to see what happens from my end, which should be like SD’s. Who wants to be “banned / blocked / whatever” momentarily? All you would need to do is try liking, replying, and posting after I ban you, and I’ll watch from here.
I’m around for a little while, so yeah, go ahead and try it.
It’s OK – already did it. I got interesting results. If I block a person, their stuff goes STRAIGHT TO TRASH. If I unblock them, it goes back to normal. Automatic moderation may put things in Pending or Spam. That is all I have found so far. No finer-grained options.
Hi Wolf, So sorry to hear that you were banned. I was too several months ago and it took a long time for me to contact Ad Rem because the messages weren’t getting through. About six months later, I got a message that said that I was reinstated and she had gone through all my posts and couldn’t figure out why I was banned. But…..since then I have had trouble posting and so just gave it up except for once in awhile. I don’t remember posting anything about Q but did “like” several other posts so…who knows. Anyway…I’m staying with you and will continue reading CTH articles. You are appreciated. Shannynae
>
Thank you and God bless!!! 😀
I wondered what happened to you, Shannynae. A few names just disappeared and I thought each was fed up with the personal attacks that were happening whenever anyone mentioned support for certain government officials or Q.
I didn’t occur to me that people were being kicked out! Occasionally I’d see Ad Rem state it to someone (sometimes shocking me because that person was clearly not the troublemaker), but I only learned the extent of it when I came here.
Interesting that you mentioned the personal attacks. I got nailed a few times and it’s not fun to be mocked or criticized for an opinion or belief. I stopped posting. I have noticed since posting here that people are kind and respectful and I love that we can share with one another, learn from each other and just have a good conversation even if we don’t agree. That’s the way it is supposed to work!
Yes, and I think that Wolfmoon will be very good at keeping the trolls and attackers out!
Oh you betcha! But don’t feel sorry for them. Feel sorry for the ones who I let in for study! 😉
Ooh, I like that! I’m willing to watch. 😀
AMEN!
I had wondered what became of you Shannynae. As with other names I just sort of noticed at one point last spring that they just weren’t there any more. And of course you never know what is behind all of that.
Remember Bluto/Fluffy Attack Dog? He kind of disappeared and then would post on rare occasions. I assumed he found Twitter more to his liking, but who knows? And I remember Georgia Florida or something like that who was always defending Sessions right up until she was gone. I assumed she got tired of wearing her flack jacket. And there was Amazing Georgia Grace, or something like that, who dropped off the earth. And on and on and on.
Bluto was always a favorite and also the others you mentioned…I did notice that many of the posters that were there when I first found a branch slowly left. Many days I think that I am living in the Twilight Zone.
There is so much wisdom throughout this thread.
First, I’m really sorry Wolfie. You didn’t do anything to bring this down on you except to give us a place. The wrongness of that irritates me.
As I have been working through this Great Schism, one of the things I’ve been thinking is my belief that everything happens for a reason. A sort of “Trust The Plan” attitude I had before I had ever heard of Q.
It occurred to me that this T-house Rift happened for a reason and serves a larger purpose than I can see from my human perspective. Perhaps we were meant to be culled from the herd and brought to the Q Tree to prepare us for what comes next, whatever that is.
I am gaining a lot from the kind of “super focused” postings and comments from this smaller group, and in a different levels and deeper meanings than I got at the T-house as much as I enjoyed and was grateful for what I got there.
Perhaps I needed that time, and the Rift, to bring me here to this place and time to help prepare me for what comes next. I just don’t know what that means, but I also have a feeling of urgency now as though I can feel the breath of the beast on the back of my neck.
In short, I don’t know where we are going but I think we are here to prepare us in some way for the next phase. God bless you Wolfie for helping to lead us.
There is a definite sense of that, that it’s meant. I’m so glad so many of us are here. It’s like one small ship of calm in a building storm. I’m glad Wolfmoon is at the helm. God is guiding us all, I feel it’s true.
All things happen for GOOD……. for those (of us) that LOVE the Lord…..
And…… are CALLED……. according to HIS purpose.
We will know in the end for the TRUTH sets us free.
Rayzorbak, that is so true. Abraham Lincoln’s quote has also guided me through a lot of unknown territory.
“I do the very best I can, I mean to keep going. If the end brings me out all right, then what is said against me won’t matter. If I’m wrong, ten angels swearing I was right won’t make a difference.”
― Abraham Lincoln
Survival suggestions. From what Q says, this will not take long. Q will still be up because they have been upgraded and hardened several times.
Have some cash on hand.
Help each other.
It is winter. If your power goes out you can keep food from going bad by putting it outside in the cold or putting it on a table or shelf inside in a seldom used room and opening the window to keep it cold without freezing it. I learned that staying in a hotel on vacation in London that had no refrigerator in the room. It worked great.
Dress warm. Strangely enough people who have warm clothes, freeze to death in big cities because they do not put their warm clothes on in a power outage.
Fill your bathtub with water so that you can wash up or flush the toilets with a small bucket of water.
Fill some clean glass jars with water that you can drink.
You can do without water for 7 days – 13 is the longest I have read about and that was in Japan after the big earthquake where a woman was trapped under a concrete column.
You can do entirely without food for much longer than you know. People go on 30 day water fasts all the time. The longest water fast ever documented was 286 days. If this only lasts a few weeks, no problem at all. You may be thinner but that won’t hurt most of us at all.
You can cook food on your outdoor grill. Be sure you have a spare tank of propane.
You can recharge your cellphone in your vehicle. Turn the motor on to keep the vehicle battery charged.
Keep a full tank of gas, but you are probably not going anywhere because you won’t know where to go.
Have some butane lighters so you can light a fire if you need to.
Have some good books to read. It would be a very good time to read your Bible and pray.
From what Q says, the power will stay on in most places and you can use your computer but you won’t have MSM, entertainment and social networks.
Just realize that if you are going to remodel, you must rip out the old stuff to make way for the new, so you are going to have to live with the mess for a while.
Stay calm. Think of it as camping out.
Good points, Elizabeth. We had a situation where I live last summer where the reservoir our water came from had toxic moss growing on it. So everyone had to drink bottled water for weeks. I still have several gallons stored for just in case. Bottled water is actually pretty cheap – about $1 a gallon at my local Winco. So it’s not a bad idea to get some and keep it stored for an emergency.
I just wish all this had happened last summer, though, instead of now when it has gotten cold and that will be another thing to deal with. But we’ll get through it.
I believe you meant a “food” fast for that long (200+ days)….. just sayin’
It was documented by doctors who said it could not be done. The 2 men were kept in a hospital so they could be watched at all times.
I wouldn’t want to try it at all but the point is that people are terrified of thinking they might have to do without food for 3 days. The point that I am trying to make is that it won’t hurt you to do without food for a few weeks if you have to. It would be unusual in this country to be unable to find something to eat, so don’t panic, just look around and I am sure you won’t starve.
It’s not uncommon for people who do Keto diet to fast for several days or more at a time. Just drink plenty of water with a pinch of salt in it. High fat, low protein no carb intake for a few days prior and you can be golden.
Good advice, and if I may add (based on Midwestern power outages after nasty storms in neighborhoods with big, old trees):
Hit the camping sections of Walmart and the like. Off season camp lanterns, sterno stoves, and butane stoves are available and are DEFINITELY worth having around. Also a box of taper candles or two. Can’t tell you the number of stubs we have from burning 12 inchers during storms.
When at the grocery store, look for hearty soups and stews for a small prepper kit. Most soup and stew makers now have cans with pop tops that are essentially single serving. If they go on sale stock up. These can always be given to a food pantry later, but these are the perfect size to be heated up on a sterno stove. Chicken and beef broth are also essentials and can be used for a variety of things including soup, cooking rice and pasta, and just to drink.
Water – the best option, IMO, is to watch for sales of 16.9 oz bottles and spend $20 or so for a number of cases. As long as they are out of heat, and not in a place where they will freeze, this option is very versatile. These can be used for all drinking purposes, including making tea and coffee. We’ve always got at least a case around, but then I usually take one to choir or if I have to cantor at Mass or sing a funeral.
Please DO NOT try to read by candle light.
Bring the dogs in the house even if they do not settle down right away.
Have lots of throw blankets.
Be sure the chimney liner is updated so you don’t start a fire.
And as for the grill…this household has had an in ground gas grill since the early 1970s, so I can’t relate to propane, but a spare tank sounds like a good idea.
Just some tips from someone who spent WAY too much of 2006 without power in both summer and winter.
Back when Glenn Beck was on FOX and I used to watch him daily I learned a lot. I eventually became convinced that it would be wise to prepare a bit. I had naively assumed I would be in pretty good shape should something bad come down but once I evaluated a bit I saw ways in which I really needed to do a better job of having some stuff around in case I had to survive for a while.
About that time I happened to see a published map of what my area would look like if our famed 100 year flood that we are years overdue for ever arrived. It gave me pause. I hadn’t previously worried about it because I’m elevated and not where I’d have to worry about flood waters, but when I saw that we would be cut off from the interstate I began to think about it a bit. When I realized that just in time inventory means the store shelves would empty out quickly and it might well be weeks before trucks could actually bring in supplies, I thought I had better do some basic planning.
I have some gaps in my basic survival stuff. I need to review that and make a list of some supplies to add. More ammo. Definitely more ammo.
I loved the early days of the Glenn Beck show on Fox. It was brilliant and I learned so much. It’s too bad that he became a Never Trumper and just fell apart. Not sure if his success was more than he could handle or if his ego got out of control.
I will always be grateful for what I learned from his show.
Me, too. I owe a lot to Glenn Beck. So sad he lost his way.
As an aside, when I am talking to leftists, they’re usually surprised to hear that Beck hates Trump.
I guess they think they’re both wingnuts and should therefore get along.
Smart, because while there are 100 year floods there are also 1000 year floods and these are most interesting times.
ElizabethCarter, thank you for all the tips. Anyone who can suggest something safe for cooking or heating in an apartment for a blind lady who is afraid of flame? I mean, have a gas stove with an electric ignition, but never even liked to mess with matches.
A gas insert on a fireplace provides excellent heat, and much more efficiently than burning wood in the fireplace. They look nice, too. Pilot light runs all the time or piezoelectric ignition – no matches, no fuss, and goes right into an existing unused fireplace. Perfect for when the electricity and other utilities go out.
I find Flep’s post upthread to be MOST enlightening.
SteveinCO was banned a year ago; GeorgiaFl 4 mos ago;
For what? Not Q for sure.
I wondered that myself.
Hi Aubergine !
Glad to see you here… looking forward to reading your posts.
GeorgiaFL posted strongly supporting Sessions. I don’t recall her every being obnoxious or inappropriate (at least in my eyes, LOL) but she was strong. I noticed her because even while I had flip flopped on Sessions good/Sessions bad and eventually ended up on the fence, GFL had her opinion and she defended it strongly, like a warrior.
Four months ago might have been about right for when S posted his piece about Sessions (after having been quiet about him for months) and it was so negative about Sessions, the IG, any hope for justice coming that I felt slapped in the face. Maybe she got shut down for supporting Sessions?
I tried to LIKE every positive JS comment on CTH since the anti stuff started, but after the first few slap downs I pretty much kept my thought to myself- except for the LIKES. Did that mostly because I don’t like arguing with idiots.
Sigh…
I read the Tree House more for the commenters than the articles, or at least, I used to.
The information in what Sundance writes is great, but a lot of it really is available elsewhere when we look for it. The companionship of like minds, however, at least in my case, is more elusive. Hence my appreciation for commenters.
Then I got here and realized that almost every comment I read is from someone I admired over at the Tree House! And none are from the irritating ones. I do miss Georgia Florida. The worst part is every so often someone on CTH would “wonder” what happened to her, or another missing person, and pray that they were ok. Thinking that they were banned never crossed my mind. I mean, who would do that? It’s a site which elicits responses and opinions, right? And here people are worrying about the well-being of someone who just wrote the wrong thing!
Anyway, grateful to be here, and very sorry you got banned, Wolfmoon. Thanks for letting me share a corner of the den.
I share a lot of your experience. I enjoyed S’s articles, but like the silent coup there have been others who have been putting it together like Greg Jarret’s excellent book and Dan Bongino has worked hard there, too. S’s articles on economics have been something I haven’t found anywhere else. And to an earlier time, his stuff on Broward County and Trayvon Martin were out there all by themselves.
But for the most part for me it was the community. I’m not a big social media person, just an FB account that I have used less and less over time. And I had never posted anywhere ever before until the T-house. Never used Discqus. Never posted on Breitbart or anywhere else. Ever. Never really wanted to. But it was different at the T-house.
But that has changed, and here we are!! So I’m opening myself to this new experience and I’m going to actively work to learn more and prepare better for whatever might be coming. It is sort of like moving from the calm before the storm, to the great awakening, to patriots fight. I’m woke suddenly and battle lines are being drawn right in front of my eyes. Best to get ready.
So with you on that. I remember being shocked when Ad-Rem came in and told someone they were out and not to bother even emailing. I couldn’t see what that person had done wrong and finally decided there must be a past history that I didn’t know about.
I had no idea that people were getting banned all over the place. For what? Believing Sessions might be innocent of treason? What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. There were times over there I felt I was in a lynch mob. I soon learned to keep my thoughts to myself, on Q, on Sessions, even RR and Mueller. Until we actually find out, no one knows.
I kept thinking, when it all cracks open, everyone will be relieved and the tensions will go down.
I loved the comments section and would often learn more there than from the main article. When things went to pieces, the abuse and gang-ups that went on soured everything, but it wasn’t until I came over here that I learned banning seemed more a feature than an occasional thing and for all the wrong reasons.
That’s the bit I don’t get. Not the Q stuff. The intolerance.
“I soon learned to keep my thoughts to myself, on Q, on Sessions, even RR and Mueller.”

When the List of Things You Cannot Talk About grows to such a great length…it became a place that was very uncomfortable to be in.
“The Truth Has No Agenda” <— Really?
When reasoned, open debate is no longer allowed, when falsehoods and disinfo are held up as 'true'…then that statement about the Truth having "no agenda" becomes very hollow and even hypocritical.
Exactly so.
Speaking of someone in dire need of banishment to the depths of hell. Ain’t Karma a bitch…

I am sorry to take such jubilation over such evil. But this makes me really smile.
I battle my baser self every day.
I love this site. Patriots Soapbox, on YT, doing 24 / 7 live-stream, with live-hosted content and YT chat.
RIGHT now, they’re replaying Sen Graham’s questioning of Justice Kavanaugh (scroll back a few minutes of time [bottom time-bar]). They do a lot of these videos, throughout the day.
The host “RadixVerum” is on now, and she’s a proprietor (along with her husband, PamphletAnon), and she’s both very nice, and extremely well-versed.
I often have it in the background, as audio to complement the written sites I visit, like this one:
Now, reading PDJT’s EO on Election Integrity.
They went over the ENTIRE Executive Order, including how all the players in the just past mid-term elections who have participated in the skullduggery are LIABLE for their actions.
The wording is precise, complete, and unyielding.
It’s a HAMMER. I believe it will be wielded, very SOON.
YESSS! Love that! 😀
I’ve been wondering, though, how that EO would apply to Democrats. Isn’t it about FOREIGN interference? Unless they were explicitly funded by foreigners, how would that apply to them?
The ChiComs have been pouring money into Dem candidates.
Pres Trump even mentioned that the “Chinese are trying to interfere in our midterm elections”.
Remember that?
Yes.
Oh yes. He was not happy about the ChiComs and that Iowa newspaper ad madae to look like a news story (talk about fake news).
And what about foreign nationals voting in our elections? That might possibly be covered, as well, although I sure don’t know.
True, but if it’s not explicit, I can see the dems weaseling out with their high-priced lawyers and liberal judges.
Thanks. I will definitely check this out!
I have this on everyday too! Helps me accomplish the mundane tasks of the day.
I’m so sorry, Wolf, to hear that you’ve been banned.
Wow. That’s a really petty and small thing for them to do to you.
You’ve been defending Sd and that place.
Eeesh, I take a day off from news and the internet…and all sorts of things happen.
Wolf gets banned.
Fox files an amicus brief in support of CNN (!)
Creepy Porn Lawyer is arrested.
I dunno if I have been banned over there or not…I haven’t been there in a while.
If I am, I will wear it as a badge of honor.
I just went over and tried to make a comment, and it posted. More and more people over there are noticing the changed atmosphere. I basically agreed with one of those posts to see what happened.
Interesting. Sundance just posted the tweet below. I wonder if he’s asking for himself.
He does live in Florida.
Florida has no state income tax.
Judging from their politics and election history of at least the past two decades, amongst other things, they are not very liberty minded.
He is comfortably invisible.
And he obviously wants to be left the hell alone-HE JUST GOT RID OF ALL HIS FRIENDS.
Think you’re onto something. They call it “acting out”. Check his tweets. He has one basically telling POTUS to s**t or get off the pot. Or in other words, “act or be acted upon”.
Found it.
VSGPOTUS needs patience here. Two years allows some amazing strategies to unfold. More drama may be required, but it’s time for some drama, IMO.
“SOON”
I’ll go out on a limb here.
He HAS TO act, to some extent BEFORE the new Congress is seated (possibly just waiting now for all the election results to be finaizedl; i.e. the completion of the commission of crimes involving the election).
Some delay may be necessary to wait until after the new Congress is sworn in to take certain actions (Oath of Office).

“Act, or be acted on…”
That sounds like a ‘threat’ too…like something a blackmailer or a terrorist would say.
This is just so unlike the guy we used to know.
I think SD’s tweet was done in good faith – meaning “take action against enemies and sketchy allies – don’t let them box you in”. But to me it shows a BIG CHANGE in SD’s psychology. Let me explain.
Of all the folks in the MAGA camp, SD was always the person who said “Trump’s got this” and “good luck fooling Trump”. NOW – all of a sudden – his FAITH in Trump has been rattled. And I don’t think it’s just the election.
I think he’s been psy-opped by the leftists. And he could have even been psy-opped against US, too. They are very good at getting people to believe BS, and to turn on friends and allies.
Trillions of dollars.
I think you may be right, Wolf…there’s been a gradual ‘disheartened tone’ that I have noticed, for months.
BTW, I just landed in moderation, over in the new open thread.
Too many links, perhaps.
Yeah, I got it out! No problem.
Thank you!
Wheatie, that was my gut reaction also. It sounds like a threat! And then I looked closer and realize he tweeted it to the President, Melania, and the rest of the family. Thank heavens he excluded Barron.
I wrote briefly about Glenn Beck earlier. Maybe SD is having a similar melt down? Don’t know, it sure isn’t pretty.
No, it’s not pretty.
In fact, it’s Ugly.
Maybe Sd got tired of waiting for ‘The Big Ugly’ that he predicted would happen…and decided to create his own Big Ugly.
SD needs to be reminded of everything that has been accomplished despite the Dem Party, half of the Rep Party, all of the corruption in the ABC’s, media, UN, world leaders and many others that I too tired to list tearing him apart every single day since 2015. Miracles happen and God is watching over him.
The wild behavior Sundance allowed on his site – – the Tourette’s type of nasty behavior and repetitive comments – – always had an anti-Trump implicit premise/consequence.
It never occurred to me that Sundance might have approved, but maybe he did.
Thank you. This tweet led me to an hour-long ride on Twitter, including SD posts and fellow Treeper @yohiobaseball. He had a thread that knocked something open.
I am absolutely convinced we have to get off Twitter. Twitter and the DNC are sharing top-level information. They screwed us and we didn’t have a chance. I am convinced that DNC used Twitter data unavailable to the GOP to take back the House.
I may have the movement of the main guy backwards here, but it doesn’t really matter – political action on Twitter is like planning an election in the other campaign’s HQ – it’s absolutely ridiculous and foolhardy. We MUST get off Twitter, and onto a platform that levels the playing field.
OMG – I just realized why Twitter was so obsessed with culling the bots. It was to hurt the GOP more than the DEMs. Figure it out. They knew DNC was going to get special sauce out the side door, so they culled the bots to hurt everybody who has to get data through the front door. It’s ingenious.
Everything that Twitter does is done to hurt the GOP and conservatives…and to promote the Left.
We now have MULTIPLE MAGA options that guarantee free speech and no shadowbans. There is no reason to stay on Twitter except to help the GOPe and DNC UniParty.
Gab – now on a free speech host – HARDENED against leftist attacks
Free Talk – run by OANN’s network, very much like Twitter, committed to free speech
Spreely – more like Facebook, very professional, Joe Dan Gorman is there, also committed to free speech
We MUST go back to insurgency mode. MUST. That means don’t let them push us around on Twitter.
listen and you know this – all of these sites are poison. and it is way to late, they have all the dirty info man. you worked in it. i grew up in it, my kids don’t even know how to go a minute without an iphone – it’s all been done. man that was super blackpilled.
but 100% guarantee all the companies are in on it. 100%. and personally i almost think the opportunity for a couple honey type pots were already set up. regardless, those are easy, but they have us from our profile report what we like. none of us could ever hide. unless you have 6 vpns on a virtual machine going over 6 vpns. even then you better have quick remove hard drives and a big magnet at the ready!
we know that if they forced someone’s hand to ban or cull certain people, then they could also have a quick csv file created with the pertinent info of all. and if they came over here for 4 or 5 hours they could just write all our stuff down manually. there isn’t really a ton to find yet. so IF there is some kind of verified reason to be afraid which is causing these deplatformings, doxxings, culling, purging, etc, then we are in for something that will be a real moment.
not to scare people – but it should be understood as something that is a real weapon that we have to face.
and honestly down low the q except where necessary. if it’s one place then fine, others will verify they see it in a smart way.
trying to make money off it and get it on the news or people talking about it is counterproductive in the long run. especially to keep the connection as reliable and credible and trustworthy (as it were) as possible. it’s not a popularity contest, because the q movement has some big rivals over there if you’ve read about their plans that are already in action for a long time.- ie the dave brock dem matter strat playbook that came out. that stuff is frightening. and that is the stuff that leaks out.
and this is not a negative at all please nobody take it this way. just honest feelings.
No fear! Fear is the enemy. Don’t fear these f*ckers!
Fear is the beginning of the problems. Yeah, well, it’s time for the black hat traitors to fear JAIL and the NOOSE.
I’ve been recorded, hacked, conned, tricked, and set up by these jokers for nearly my whole life. I just bust them and hang their crimes over their heads like Rods of God. What they do to us is a lie and a CRIME.
WE are not the ones who should be afraid. NO. THOSE BASTARDS need to be afraid. The “Fifty Traitors Against Trump” – those ABUSERS of intelligence who turned our Constitution on its HEAD – they’re the ones who need some fear.
Why in the hell Americans like you or anybody here should be afraid just pisses me off. F*CK THESE DEMONS.
Excuse my French.
Oh, Linda what a find! Reminds me of the IT guy who went on Reddit for information of how to wipe a hard drive (don’t recall the exact terminology) but this reaching out has the same tone of distress.
My CTH Ban”
After posting here last night my intent to invite G Combs over here, I went over to CTH, and proceed to track her down. I could not find this “Cicero quote” that I intended to reply to. I found another of her posts (totally unrelated), made a short comment, then extend the invite, and provided the link.
Today, I looked back on a comment that I made in response to Sundances “REMINDER” thread (commenting rules), and saw that someone replied to my comment.
I went to reply back, and as soon as I clicked to post, my comment DISAPPEARED. (Usually, it posts but says that it’s in moderation). So, I clicked reply up again. The pop-up reply screen was already filled out my previous attempt reply, so I click Post and again it disappeared. Then I went to today’s presidential thread, and attempted to reply to another comment-that disappeared when I clicked Post.
Then I went back to check my invitation to G Combs, which had initially hosted “in moderation” last night (shortly after my Post to reach out to her here).
I do not know whether that comment ever posted, or if it was deleted in moderation, or left in the spam bin to die, or what specific point in time did the banning actually take place. I hope that it posted for little while, and that G Combs received my message. But I doubt it.
I was all set to write it off the just another one of my “bed WordPress days” (there has been many). I never give up. I intended to go back at it later.
Then I came over here.
I think the wrong swamp got drained.
Nor’easter would you like me to try to get a message to G Combs? I don’t know for sure if I can still post, but I can try.
I am still able to post.
Let me know if you can’t, and I will post to G Combs.
I seem to have been banned. If you get a chance maybe you could post the link here to her? But it may get you banned, too.
Well, I tried, but it didn’t post.
I guess I am banned, too.
Not surprising, considering my response to Sundance just this morning.
Ah, well.
Thanks anyway!
So, it looks like I may have only been in moderation? Someone replied to another post I tried yesterday at the CTH, so maybe my message got through after all.
Maybe the link to this site is getting the posts binned?
Perhaps use search terms for WM’s main site with a note to click on the tree?
I’m thinking the same thing.
If that’s the case, maybe try posting a “broken” link, with instructions.
I have seen this done by copying and pasting the link, then adding a space within the link before posting.
For example, right here:
https://wqth.wordpress.com/2018/11/14/the-journey-has-begun/comment-page-1/#comment-4677
Then, edit in a “space”, in this example, right between the double slash (//) and wqth, like so:
https:// wqth.wordpress.com/2018/11/14/the-journey-has-begun/comment-page-1/#comment-4677
Notice that the “broken” link is not highlighted.
You may have to give instructions to the recipient to 1) copy and paste the “broken” link, and 2) To remove the “space” prior to hitting enter.,
This link went through without any trouble.
https://wolfmoon1776.wordpress.com/
I couldn’t post even without linking here. And I was able (a couple days ago) to successfully post a comment with a link here. But the mysteries of WordPress are wide and deep (for me) so there’s that.
Sorry for the late reply. That would be great.
Regrettably, I have now been banned, so I can’t although I tried.
I think she is feeling some of what all of us were feeling over there, so I tried to reach her but can’t.
However, Aubergine thinks she might be able to give her the link here so we’ll see.
Hmmm. Remember Q saying something big is about to drop?
Can’t wait! 😀
Looking forward to some Fireworks!
Beautiful pic!
What a gorgeous photo.
I like it! 😀

oops, I didn’t finish… at least not in the WHITE HOUSE.
I posted in wrong thread, didn’t I? Sorry…
bedtime !!!
I’m sure it’s okay. 🙂
I read something but it wasn’t attributed so I don’t know if it is accurate but that this Ricardel woman is Croatian and there is bad blood historically between the Croatians and Slovaks or Slovenians or wherever Melania was born. Anyone else hear anything like that? It seems kind of sketchy, doesn’t it.
Some interesting stuff about her, that’s for sure. She was used by Bolton to get an Obama-era cyber guy out of the WH – sounds like a good move. But she is CFR, too. Mixed bag.
I noticed something in [ ]’s article “New Mueller Court Filing Highlights Trump Investigation Will Continue Deep into Year Three…” https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/11/14/new-mueller-court-filing-highlights-trump-investigation-will-continue-deep-into-year-three/
…where [ ] again puts down the “trust the plan” folks.
[ ] now uses the phrase “administrative state”, reserving the term “deep state” to when discussing plans of those on the Q team. From the linked article: “…the ‘trust the plan’ crew believes Rosenstein and Mueller are working on behalf of President Trump to confront the deep state…”
Is this a form of persuasion, thinking “administrative state” sounds less evil than “deep state”?
I, for one, will never forget that [ ] at one time was of the opinion that Rosenstein and Mueller were flipped black hats, turned into white hats.
Even President Trump himself uses the phrase “Deep State” and not “administrative state” when he tweets. It isn’t only something Q says. For example:
Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
9/6/18, 6:19 AM
The Deep State and the Left, and their vehicle, the Fake News Media, are going Crazy – & they don’t know what to do. The Economy is booming like never before, Jobs are at Historic Highs, soon TWO Supreme Court Justices & maybe Declassification to find Additional Corruption. Wow!
Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
7/14/18, 4:57 AM
….Where is the DNC Server, and why didn’t the FBI take possession of it? Deep State?
Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
5/23/18, 5:54 AM
Look how things have turned around on the Criminal Deep State. They go after Phony Collusion with Russia, a made up Scam, and end up getting caught in a major SPY scandal the likes of which this country may never have seen before! What goes around, comes around!
Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)
1/2/18, 6:48 AM
Crooked Hillary Clinton’s top aid, Huma Abedin, has been accused of disregarding basic security protocols. She put Classified Passwords into the hands of foreign agents. Remember sailors pictures on submarine? Jail! Deep State Justice Dept must finally act? Also on Comey & others
He’s still misrepresenting Q, then. Q has never said that Rosie and Mueller are White Hats or working on behalf of President Trump. In fact, it’s been pretty much the opposite. Of course, that could be disinformation to keep the Deep State from finding out otherwise. But I don’t hear many Q followers with that belief. So either he is deliberately misrepresenting Q, or he hasn’t read any of the drops and is just going by what the MSM are saying. But neither sounds like the old Sundance.
SD seems to have something against Stealth Jeff on Twitter, so he may be taking his cues from Stealth Jeff’s twitter posts. I check Stealth Jeff every now and then, but not often enough to know if that’s where SD is getting his Q-perspective.
It does sound rather like someone is standing in for him, doesn’t it. Complete with different terminology. And have the mods always been aggressive, or are they new persona too…? Just wondering…
Hasn’t sounded like him at all for a while.
That’s true. He’s been much more pessimistic of late for sure. I thought he was just getting fed up.
I hope he’s okay.
“nd have the mods always been aggressive, or are they new persona too…? Just wondering…”
_______________
Don’t know. The only ‘mod’ I’m aware of, or ever had contact with via email (during one of my temporary suspensions or to ask a question) is Ad-rem, and she has always been been very kind, both in email and when she posts on the CTH comments section.
Big Mama Tea was another one I believe and she was always okay. They all seemed fine, but then I’ve never been at the wrong end of their decisions.
I never realized Big Mama Tea was a mod, I thought she was just another CTH member like the rest of us.
She always seemed fine to me too. 👍
That is true! Q has kept us guessing on the RR Mueller duo since the beginning. I was changing the color of their hat just about every week! Still not sure although I have been leaning white lately which is a shock to me!
“I am pretty sure (well, almost positive) that I’ve been banned from CTH. I can’t like, reply, or post comments. Circumstances being what they are, I have to assume banning to be the case.”
___________________
If they banned you Wolf, then what chance did the rest of us have?
But ‘Peoria Jones’ and others can act like Brownshirts and bully everyone like Grammar Nazis about the meaning and use of ‘parentheses’, and CTH is just fine with that… ???
Whoever is doing the banning at CTH is ‘hunting’. Clearly there’s no nrew broad-board ‘standard’ being enforced, because if there was, people like ‘Peoria Jones’ would have been booted long before Wolfmoon.
So if CTH isn’t banning people for any particular rules violation, then it appears CTH is banning people for their viewpoint.
Banning long-time members… banning conservatives… Trump supporters… MAGA supporters.
And keeping the new PC ‘enforcers’. People who wouldn’t be acting like that (and who didn’t act like that) before the ‘purge’.
You said SD is checking in here, so why doesn’t he explain what in the world is going on?
I’m sure most of us would be glad to hear from him (I would be), and to find out what the deal is.
Not sure. This whole thing is strange.
It is, isn’t it.
it very certainly is enigmatic for sure.
man, that parentheses one was hilarious. if you are talking about the one where someone actually used curly brackets. that one actually had me laughing out loud honest to god. by the end i couldn’t tell if is was pure comedy with implied sarcasm (especially the comment “yes, my husband does computer work and he says that is what it means in programming code also” with several ooohs and aaahs and “bless you for that i did not know that was racist i thought it meant HUGS from back in the aol messenger days” type replies…
but i agree. the PJ poster has gotten very, i guess aggressive, fast. and then i noticed there is another that really championed a certain movement that seemed to encourage democrats to think for themselves and they just had a march in dc recently, anyway, one poster really was inspired and posted so many and now that poster is like following some others around and doing some authority of their own on people when they feel emboldened, so that movement was their passion, they loved this and that, and two days later being kind of rude for no reason? strange.
honestly, i have felt like i am living in some kind of simulation or i am in a movie that someone is watching in the alternate universe, i can’t explain it, but it’s like that feeling you physically get when you have dejavu, amplified and you aren’t seeing something that you remember from the past. i’m cool with that though if that is what it turns out to be. i have an open mind. but from the escalator in trump tower to the last couple weeks with the rallies and rsbn and q and cth and the media, and real life (woman petrified to leave her home lest she be confronted by a “trump supporter”) all of this sounds way to crazy to be real!
Agreed Scott. The “banning logic” at the TH is essentially the same as leftist logic as applied on twitter, YT, FB et al. Voices of reasoned questioning get banned, and vitriolic attacks getting a pass.
I did not get banned for Q, but for raising questions re the “leverage” theory, as did 2 others on that same post. So critical thinking gets you banned – not very conservative.
Maybe Sundance has been infiltrated via one or more of his part time moderators who are quietly banning people without Sundance’s knowledge? This theory would work with me and a couple of other not very high profile commenters, but does not explain Wolfmoon’s ban.
SD may have other motives to cut me loose that I can’t fully divulge, other than to say that I am a continual target of the left and the UniParty for discreditation, and that nobody really wants to be discredited along with me. And who can blame them?
Acknowledged. 😉
“SD may have other motives to cut me loose that I can’t fully divulge, other than to say that I am a continual target of the left and the UniParty for discreditation, and that nobody really wants to be discredited along with me.”
_________
Wait… what?
Since when do we throw our own under the bus when they draw fire?
Isn’t CTH a continual target of the Left and the UniParty too, almost certainly even more so? I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that SD had a much larger ‘platform’ than any of the Treehouse members.
For example, CTH is to an elephant as a CTH individual member is a mouse.
If one of the mice is drawing Uni-Party fire, what does the elephant have to worry about?
The elephant is probably drawing a whole lot more.
.
“And who can blame them?”
(hand shoots up like Horsack on Welcome Back Kotter!)
Oh.. Oh… Oh… Mr. Kot-ter!
edit / correction: Horshack.
Why do giant corporations fire tiny individuals who appear “wrongly” in the media? It’s because the media can magnify. Or to redeploy your own example back at you – what kind of “fire” does a smart opponent fire at the elephant?
Mice.
Alinsky can’t stop the elephant. But the elephant can stop the elephant, if it thinks it has to. And all it takes to make the elephant stop the elephant is a MOUSE.
But – the best way to explain this all is a post on tactics in double-discreditation by the socialist scum. But I’m too tired right now. Later! 😉
“And who can blame them?”

That is definitely NOT a WWG1WGA attitude!
That’s more like a ‘when the going gets tough, the tough take a powder‘ attitude, lol!
I agree – it’s not WWG1WGA – but remember – WWG1WGA is a Q THANG! 😉
Could be. I have had questions about the ‘leverage’ theories too, and SD never addresses the obvious issues, he just continues to repeat them over and over again, brainwash/propaganda style, as if repetition makes them true.
This possibility occurred to me the other day, but it’s a long shot.
Q has said that everywhere ‘Q’ is discussed will be shut down at some point (which has already begun), so that eventually the only place anyone would be able to even discuss Q is literally on the 8-chan board.
If SD is concerned that CTH might be ‘shut down’ due to ‘Q’ discussion, he could be making a preemptive strike to remove as much Q discussion as possible from his website.
But if that was the case, it would have been a lot easier to just explain that to everyone — we were all members of the TH, on the same team — rather than go scorched-earth on long-time members.
I think WE OURSELVES are going to be toxic. That’s the fear. They’re looking for DISAVOWAL – not just shutting up. Q followers are the next “alt-right”, “white supremacist”, “anti-semites”. That’s my guess.
“I think WE OURSELVES are going to be toxic. That’s the fear.”
______________
Hm. I don’t have that fear.
And I’m not toxic.
I checked 😁
On an only slightly more serious note, if that is where this goes, if that turns out to be even a little bit true, then we are going to win so big there won’t even be words for it.
We will CRUSH it.
It will only galvanize Q readers and Anons. The more they try to attack us, they stronger and more committed we’ll become.
It’s like telling someone ‘No’, or ‘you can’t do that’. All that does is provoke people to do MORE of whatever it is that you don’t want them to do!
Ha, well, I know telling me ‘No you can’t do that’ is JUST waving a red flag at a bull!
“They’re looking for DISAVOWAL – not just shutting up. Q followers are the next “alt-right”, “white supremacist”, “anti-semites”. That’s my guess.”

Wolf, just a thought. Would it be worth setting up a spare free site that you can refer us to in the event you get “taken down” in all your primary blogs? That could be used as a “notice board” so that we can find you in a different new site. That way this community can stick together.
Losing the TH was bad enough, but getting kicked out here where everyone is getting on so well would be worse!!
I am working on a survivability plan along those lines. You’ll hear more about it!
Howdy everyone. Well, it looks as though I have been banned, also. I went to the Presidential Daily Brief and posted a short one line sentence about a tweet someone posted about the Commie gal with all the teeth and three names none of which I can think of right now. From NY. New Rep.
Anyway, she had a posturing tweet about already being judged in DC when she was sent to a spouse’s event rather than new Congress critter event and another where she was mistaken for an intern. B/c racism you know or whatever other ism.
I simply said something like she should be grateful she wasn’t mistaken for a cleaning lady.
Ok. My mother tried to teach me if you can’t say anything nice. I get that. But really, a pretty mild comment. It posted. But I went back to check a couple hours later and it is long gone. Poof!
So, it looks as though Wolfie’s theory was right. They did their recon and now they are working the list to ban us. I hope we didn’t get Flep banned by inviting him to post here.
Wow. That’s wild. I see two possibilities. They made a list, OR your cleaning lady comment was considered “racist”. Which is total BS, but whatever. Sounds like SD has a bunch of leftist mods now. I don’t know why, but that’s what it sounds like.
“Wow. That’s wild. I see two possibilities. They made a list,”
_________________
That would be so small and juvenile that I don’t even know how to begin to reconcile such pettiness with SD.
That’s just not the SD I’ve known for the last several years now.
It would be better to defend him against such a possibility. We may not understand at the moment what he’s doing or why, but there’s no way he went over to the ‘Dark Side’.
“Howdy everyone. Well, it looks as though I have been banned, also.”

You’ve gotta be kidding!?!
How low can you get, to ban Sylvia?
Seriously?
Who’s next on the chopping block? Nancy Drew, Miss Marple, Opie (Andy Griffith Show) and Mother Theresa?
They’ve jumped the shark, lol!
When you start banning people as non-confrontational (bless your heart!) as Sylvia, you no longer have a pretense that this is anything but a purge of people whose viewpoint you disagree with.
And that is NOT the Sundance I have known for the last 3-1/2 years!
For reals. I cannot reply, and I cannot like comments. I haven’t tried to post a comment but I’m sure that wouldn’t work, either. I’ve clearly been given the full Acosta–my hard pass has been revoked!
My subversive heart was already contemplating a new email addy and reregistering because I really HATE being told what to do but I got just about that far and thought, “Meh. Screw ’em.”
The bloom is totally off the rose for me at the T-house anyway, so I’ll just let it be. I was proud to be a part of it, but as it is now not so much.
****************
Speaking of Miss Marple, I haven’t seen her post in a really long time, either. I wonder what happened to her?
And oh, while I was there I noticed this comment from cripto, who may be A2 reimagined. Partial post only:
“Cripto
Do I dare post what is going on in the world? Seems most posters only want to chase squirrels like that POS Avenatti. Or to to whinge and whine about POTUS being done for and not running in 2020 because the Dems have control of the House and he will walk away in 2020 because it is not worth fighting for. What utter balderdash (a message to you sundance 2.0)….”
One wonders how long Cripto will be able to post comments.
Also Phil Free posted an interesting tweet from someone that was encouraging us all about election fraud and at the end it had #QAnon. Now mind you, this wasn’t Phil’s own words. But there were several tsk tsks and slap downs for posting Q like material.
I know, I know, get over it, right? I will. But it still shocks me. We posted alongside these people for quite some time in relative harmony, and now it is like East Germany over there or something. And some of these comments were from people like Wend and I don’t even remember who, but not some newly imported troll or that wretched Peoria Jones person.
I was hoping I could get a link to G. Combs on behalf of Nor’easter. She may not last long either. Get this:
“I could not sleep so I watched some Prayingmedic vids (He at least is positive) They triggered a thought I would like to share….”
Uh, oh. Criticism implied? Prayingmedic? (Who I only learned about from S originally) Methinks G. had best tread lightly.
Sorry you got banned, Syl…you certainly did nothing to deserve it, like the rest of our Band-of-Banned-Brothers&Sisters.
Thanks for that report.
It’s interesting that Cripto called him “sundance 2.0”, heheh.
I think that Cripto declared the Q stuff “nonsense”, didn’t he?
So this could be why he hasn’t gotten the banhammer yet.
I just can’t bear to go there right now.
It’s like a darkness has fallen over the place and I don’t want infected with it.
That’s silly, I know…but despair is contagious, that’s why people try to scrape it off on others.
Yeah, cripto was not a fan of Q. He made some comment or another during the Weekend of the Long Knives about Q. But yeah, he realized S has been replaced by a pod person or something, also.
You’re probably right, on the sin scale mentioning Q in any way other than trashing is an auto ban and it probably descends from there!
Don’t go. It will break your heart.
Being banned doesn’t hurt as much as it would have several days ago. I’m okay. I now get to sit at the cool kids’ table for lunch!
“Being banned doesn’t hurt as much as it would have several days ago. I’m okay. I now get to sit at the cool kids’ table for lunch!”

Yup – Badge of honour
Hi all.
Pondering all the comments above, and thinking over the past few months, I can only reach one conclusion: Sundance has been compromised, by something unknown.
It could be as simple as burn-out or despair, or as sinister as blackmail or physical threat. But it’s real, I have no doubt.
I think it was around the time of the I.G. report that I started to notice the change. So maybe it was the disappointment of the executive summary being so weak, or the fact that indictments didn’t come. Or maybe it was something else.
I went back to that time period in CTH and scanned through the list of posts. One jumped right out at me, posted June 23. The one about Katie Arrington’s car crash not being an accident. I remember being very worried at the time about SD pointing them out so blatantly. Maybe they went full court press on him for it. I hope he and his family are ok.
The change kind of reminds me of Judge Napolitano. I used to really admire him, and now he is a changed man.
All I know is that what I can see and feel over at CTH now is VERY different than it was six months ago. It’s kind of scary.
Good observations.
Here’s my repost from an earlier thread:
He’s human. And yet at you say, he is a leader in that others follow his lead.
This is true of every one of us. We have influence.
Our noble character can inspire others to strive to be more noble as well. And our shadow side is also making an impression. Perhaps giving others “permission” to stray from the character of Christ in certain areas.
There has always been a thread of agitating/doomsaying in his work. It’s not his entire message, but his power to persuade includes ginning up outrage, casting dark shadows, and moving the focus to his selected topics.
I am praying for God’s hand to rest on him. To grant him wisdom, strength and grace to follow in the footsteps of his Heavenly Father.
TTT – can I ask you a question? Do you steer around the site using your “notifications” from WordPress (the bell icon)? Some, never, always, often? I’m trying to figure some things out.
I have two trajectories. Main trajectory is to go to each new topic and read comments from oldest to newest. Secondary is watching the notifications for any interesting replies. (Notifications also help me to see people are reading/liking. This gives me a pulse on interest and informs my future comments.)
Good. So it sounds like you may not see notifications for a while, between long looks at threads. That explains things. Thank you.
Looks like your changes to my account put me back on the moderation list?
Nevermind.
Seems to be all good.

That is when I started to notice the difference, too. It was disturbing to me then. And now.
Yes. This latest bunch of pessimists is running rampant with no attempts to rein them in, AND now I’m starting to see 911 truthers and one guy keeps posting about the government using radio waves to control people (or some such). No one ever responds to him, but he doesn’t seem to get the message that no one is buying the organic fertilizer he’s shovelling…and he hasn’t been kicked off. In other words, the site is starting to be infected by the tin foil hat types.
I have noticed a pair: Mr Spock and Tom Feral. Wow. Lots of anti Matthis stuff tying him into climate change and Muslim Brotherhood and who knows what all. Maybe the Black Dahlia murder. And someone else holding forth about crackpot theories that irritated him like Q and like “The Big Ugly.” And I thought, dude, that is your host’s own personal theory==or at least it was.
This worked (didn’t get binned).

Oh, well done ttt! And I’m glad it was kea. She is another that has seemed a bit lost and baffled by the changes. And I knew people would miss phoenixRising.
So glad you were able to do that.
Speaking of lost… when did Minnie vanish?
You know, I noticed her no longer appearing about the same time as we all ended up here. I don’t recall her posting about Q at all, TBH, but maybe she suddenly felt lost and unwelcome, too.
I hate to think of any of our Treepers out there feeling lost and alone and betrayed. I’m not even sure how I ended up here, but I must have seen the link and clicked and it was like finding an alternative universe.
I’m so grateful, and I hate to think of others feeling cut off and cast adrift. Unity is so important.
Anyone else notice Minnie has gone AWOL?
By the way I do hope you’re keeping the ol’ shovel rust free.
I’ve got a four pound sledge around here somewhere…
Perfectly honed and ready to go!
Syl, if memory serves…she ‘liked’ some of my comments where I had mentioned Q.
Now, I don’t know if that means she is a Q-inquisitive like us, or if she was just being nice.
But I would imagine that she has noticed the darkness that has befallen that place.
All the bickering and bullying is hard to watch.
Hopefully she will find her way here and start posting.
Minnie has vanished?
I love her…always so positive and always so nice to people.
Hopefully she will find her way here.
I know what you mean. Makes me feel very sad. I hope she finds her way here, too.
Yeah, you’ve definitely been the recipient of the banhammer.
My great sin was to criticize SD’s writing style, which I find overly verbose. (And sometimes he strings together two dollar words for no apparent reason–and gets at least one of them wrong.)
For that, I was banned FOR LIFE. (Ad Rem was chatting with me about it for a while, then she told me it was for life and wouldn’t talk to me after that.) Oh, and the post disappeared less than five minutes after I made it, which is why no one remembers it.
I admit I was a bit rude about it, but _really_…
Wow. Yeah, I had NO CLUE. None. Just gone, and didn’t pick up on it for a while, but now I can think about it, and yeah.
There are others, too. They can all come here. I remember a few – I’ll get the word out.
I admit it pleases me that a number of people apparently remember me even though (admittedly) my posts were largely fluff (not lots of analysis, etc.). And it was well over a year ago.
Oh, I just remembered something else. SD once posted an assertion that the government was claiming social security as part of spending but was NOT showing the social security tax revenue coming in, so it was basically spending a trillion bucks a year for free. I pointed out this was wrong (the top level balance sheet [it ought to be called an “IMbalance sheet”] clearly shows both the FICA revenue and spending, as “off budget” but still there) and he simply questioned me incredulously….but did NOT ban me.
Oh, I remember you, Steve.
Your posts about little Evelyn Farkas had me falling over with laughter.
Heheh.
And weren’t you the one who did that Countdown to election day in 2016?
I wondered what happened to you.
Didn’t see that exchange that got you banned.
And I agree about Sd’s writing style.
Been following that blog since it’s early days…and his style has gradually evolved over the years.
I’ve often seen words and phrases from the comment section, later show up in his writing…and his tweets…that I had never seen him use before.
Nothing wrong with that.
It’s just something I have noticed.
One of the things I always actually liked about Sd is that he writes more like a ‘citizen reporter’ than some polished ivy league grad who is more concerned with form than substance.
I did indeed spend a lot of effort ensuring that those who were counting down, had their figures correct. But I don’t recall saying much about Farkas–that was, perhaps, someone else.
Ironically, my complaint was that there were times he was clearly *trying* to sound like a polished Ivy leaguer, using those big words…but it would fail because he’d overdo it, and on top of that, use the words incorrectly (or very bizarrely). It might have looked impressive to some…but it failed to impress those who have those words in their vocabulary.
I know exactly what you’re talking about, Steve.
😉
And that wasn’t you who did all the funny stuff with little Evie?
Sorry…maybe it was one of the other “InCO” people who were posting back then and I am confusing you with them.
There was also another ‘Steve’ or two, for a while.
I know I didn’t dream all those hilarious posts about Farkas, though.
Those were a hoot.
The first I saw about Farkas was someone saying they were “Farking stoked!” and it rapidly went downhill from there.
My best moment of comedy over there was when some inauguration-week protester lit themselves on fire. Someone posted about it and my response was “And me without my marshmallows.”
That was my buddy who had the hots for her. I was fascinated with her banjo eyes, but he was smitten, and it WAS hilarious.
But DANG – can’t remember who that was.
Thanks, Wolfie…I knew I didn’t dream that.
Heheh.
Oh….was that someone named 3M or something like that? He kept posting the funniest things about her, and then one day POOF! he was gone, never to return.
Yep. Exactly. He needs a good editor.
Everybody needs an editor! Trust me! 😉
I’ve been told the same. And it’s very true.
To SELL your stuff, you need an editor. Period. However, it will always compromise your stuff. Sad, but true. And the communists noticed, and weaponized editing. Thank goodness for the internet. Truth can be dumped past “editors”.
I take your point.
Welcome! I remember you as the “countdown” poster during the elections :)! Glad you found your way here. This is starting to feel like an overdue high school reunion….except with old-time Treepers!
It is! I stayed up ridiculously late last night posting comments, just like I did in late 16 and early 17.
And it’s actually more civil here than CTH was even back then.
Really????? Wow. Vanity thy name is whatever. Thing is, you are right. His writing style could use some editing. He could be a whole lot clearer. That is just an honest assessment.
I wonder how long it will be before “they” wake up and start trolling this site?
It will happen, but we’ll deal with it. If it becomes TOO annoying, I’ll just start making nuclear drops until they withdraw. 😉
It’s amazing how people react to free samples of fissile material, delivered in critical-mass quantities.
They may even choose to leave people alone, like they could have to begin with! It’s amazing! 😉
Even more likely the faster the delivery. FedEx overnight? Pffft. Try less than an hour, anywhere on Earth.
Snort!
Hi Steve – I’m still counting…. >:8-}
Good Morning, to all you Patriots! Just came by to say Hi and great to see all the many folks of whom I had grown to love and respect.
While I am not really into Q, I’ll come by and read from time to time.
I’ve found other blogs to contribute/comment that still stands with GOD and the Bible on the psychological/social issues which got me banned at CTH. As many have learned, one cannot disagree with the mods or Sundance and comment at CTH.
Blessings and Peace, Georgiafl
PS – Wolfie, are you still on Twitter?
WOOHOO! You’re here! Say hello to GA/FL, folks! Very glad you stopped by.
We’re not JUST going to be about Q here any more. As most of us can no longer post at CTH, we will have to bring Treeperdom here, and begin posting and commenting on similar things on our own. However, we will always be Q-tolerant!
Yes, I am on Twitter, Gab, FreeTalk and Spreely, all under my handle of WOLFM00N, although on WordPress, I am wolfmoon1776, and on Disqus I am wolf_moon. Please feel free to tag me on any of those platforms and I will follow!
Again, great to see you!
Thanks for the warm welcome, Wolfie – I have missed you! Hope all is well in the Wolf kingdom. You are very brave to take on a blog. But as I recall, you are a thorough researcher, good at finding buried truth. Should make great reading here.
I’ve got some great stuff coming – you won’t want to miss it! 😀
Yes – please drop posts any time. This blog is in an early stage where division trolls have not tried to enter yet (well, almost true). Very easy to post here now without worrying about what you say. This is going to be some of the free-est speech around! 😉
Hi again
After further thought, I needed to come back and say that I admit/own/recognize that being banned was mostly my fault and in some ways, a willful decision on my part.
I knew and broke the written rules (don’t post off-topic comments) and the unwritten rules (don’t criticize, argue, differ with the mods and certainly not Sundance!) and was also overly argumentative about some issues.
Actually, I was banned over the same issue twice. The first time, I wrote them privately to explain my position and was reinstated. The second time, I wrote to lay out the Biblical facts/evidence and did not ask to return. They are adamant about sticking with the secular position on LBGT, etc. and I cannot. So that’s that.
While I respect all the hard work and quality of political thought at CTH and still read the articles and tweets, it would be wrong for me to compromise on an issue that has caused so much grief in my family and in the church. It is better for me to be away from CTH, because the tension there was too much like my dysfunctional family – like walking on eggshells.
There are a number of blogs with a Christian foundation that hold to the Biblical position on these issues and it’s easier on my conscience and nerves to comment and support them.
FLA/ga, many of us are glad you found this blog. I have not yet been banned, I think because I don’t say a lot. Whenever they can read minds, it will be a different story. Lol. I think you and iI would probably agree on lgbt. Have you heard of Scott Lively ?
Hi Zoe! I haven’t heard of Scott Lively, but there was a Christian teacher named Virginia Lively….I’ll look him up. Thanks!
Take care – blessings, GA
Thanks for the explanation. I was curious and assumed you left over the nasty Sessions bashing but now I remember some discussions bout the LGBTQ stuff. I didn’t know that they even had an official line on it at CTH. But then, I didn’t know one could be/would be banned, either, other than the most blatant of trolls. This has been a very eye opening experience for me.
I know I always enjoyed your posts, so I hope you come back.
Thanks for your kindness and thoughtfulness. Take care – hugs – GA
Sylvia – I was way too vehement and rude in my defense of AG Sessions. Especially the way I jumped on Howie so hard and so many times.
I still hold hopes Sessions wanted to and found a way to help drain the crime swamp in DC. I could be wrong – and have been so many times in my long life.
I got in trouble by believing the LBGT business was political. Also, one of the moderators, Zurich Mike is a partnered gay. He and I got into it about the Boy and Girl Scouts and their pushing the Planned Parenthood and LBGT agenda to kids, about the Bible and its consistent warnings/commands against engaging those behaviors. It was he who banned me.
Wow – did not know that!
Well, you don’t have to worry on this site.
This site will never back down from defending both the most conservative and the most liberal interpretations of the Bible. I cannot even imagine banning somebody for any kind of free speech expressing their own freedom of religion. To me, freedom of religion means that churches can welcome gays in any ways they want or reject the gay world utterly with zero compromise. If people can’t talk about their beliefs either way, then freedom of speech is meaningless. NO WAY!
I like Mike, but I simply can’t see how people can be banned for honest speech about their religious beliefs.
Like what you are saying here Wolf!
Just remember, trouble is heading your way on the free speech issue as sure as night follows day.
Maybe the answer is to commit to temporary (pretty short) “cooling off bans”, then allow a return.
Enforce this for civility, NOT ideas. Maybe this is worth its own thread so that this particular den (TQT) can give its opinion on this BEFORE it grows too big?
I have a pretty high tolerance for speech. The thing I jump on is intentional dysfunction to disrupt boards. I see right through a lot of scammy stuff, and it just burns me up when people try to pull crap.
But arguments? Ha! Have ’em! 😀
My first question is “Who’s been shot? Nobody? Fine, we’re done here.” 😉
Evidently some House Republicans are past tired of the LBGT, etc. agenda being shoved down their throats.

WZ is where I hang nowadays, along with American Thinker and a few other socially and politically conservative sites. Discus has an edit button, ability for users to block both objectionable photos and commenters which WP lacks.
Disqus is pretty good in general, but they do allow more hacks and leftist games than WP does, IMO. But I agree that many of the sites that use Disqus and have good internal moderation are excellent!
Although this has zero bearing on people’s posting here (and I mean ZERO), I’m a harsh critic of the LBGT *agenda*, despite the fact that I’m a supporter of gay marriage and polygamy on religious freedom grounds (i.e., I’m not just a “free speech extremist”, I’m also a “freedom of religion” extremist). It’s my opinion that CHURCHES define marriage, and government should have the most limited role possible in dealing with that.
In a world defined by free choice, I believe that polygamy and gay marriage would be accepted minority positions, and people as a whole would be happy with that. Some churches would have it, most would not, it would be far less divisive. The problem is that the left seems obsessed with pushing gay marriage (and LGBT in general) WAY beyond their natural occurrence, and there is some kind of weird anti-human agenda behind it, IMO.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. What the founders intended! That’s what I want, so peace and freedom are what I practice.
But I repeat for clarity – MY viewpoint has no bearing on people’s posting here. I will not allow anybody to interfere with my right to be offended by other people’s postings, by limiting those postings! 😉
CTH has banned a heap of folks. They are adamant about their rules. As time goes on, you may have to ‘firm up’ your rules too. CTH/Menagerie told me I should get my own blog if I wanted to espouse ideas they disapproved/said were off topic/wanted to set my own rules, etc., but I can’t imagine dealing with my own blog.
I have missed everyone at CTH, but not the unbending written and unwritten rules. I am much happier at the far less rigid environments on Discus.
Even Disqus is too swat-happy with the ban hammer for me! 😉
One time, I got an official Red Screen Warning from Discus for mentioning young blood transfusions and HRC in the same comment. Told me they monitor what folks say about her majesty.
WOW. Holy cow.
The red screen demanded a link/supporting documents.
WHOA – even more cray. Which site was this on? Very curious.
Weasel Zippers
WOW – that’s WILD. I think you’re correct in your assessment that it came from Disqus and that WZ had no say in it.
Did not realize that about zurich mike. Well, if he had seen some of my comments on issues, am quite certain he would have banned me.
Hi GA/FL. If I may ask, who told you zurichmike is a moderator there? I have never heard that before.
The evening he banned me, he had a Mod after his name and said he was out ‘looking for trolls.’
As far as I know he had never acted as a Mod before. Menagerie said ZM had been with them since they first started the blog. It is likely that he’s a longtime contributor too.
Thank you GA/FL. I knew he had been there for a very long time, I don’t read near as much there as I used to, so was unaware he was now a mod. I’m sorry it happened. You are missed there, many ask after you.
I do acknowledge my faults – was not always good at staying on topic. A couple of times Menagerie removed my comment from her special posts because she felt it was political and not spiritual, not in keeping with her intentions.
I’m better off on the blogs where I don’t seem to irritate the management so much and where they still allow social conservative as well as political conservative views.
PS – You are very kind and I appreciate it a lot! :8-)
Well, I love Howie but he is one obstinate dude so I can kind of see what happened there. Besides, in the end your stalwart defense of Sessions made Howie reexamine his own beliefs and that is not a bad thing.
I have no idea what to think of Sessions. I’m not sure we’ll ever know. I hope some day we’ll find out he had a role to play in some way.
But I am beginning to question whether we will ever know anything about what has taken place behind the scenes.
The Sessions Wars were brutal at CTH. I got to the point if I saw his name I jumped past the post. And people are STILL using his name to hammer at each other. It is a real shame.
And then came the Q Wars…
fl/ga, I believe the same about Sessions as you do, and I know he was going after the drug and pedo rings, and that alone will always procure my gratitude to him. To see people attacking an honourable public servant is painful, and it makes it hard for us to remain cool in our response while giving anhonest response. Hard for me to imagine you insulted Howie in a personal way, which would hae been wrong. Anyway, I’m sure you would have apologized if necessary.
No – I didn’t attack Howie personally – just yelled/ranted about his views on Sessions.
I always enjoyed his comments – even the silly ones. I always suspected he was a retired military lawyer.
I enjoyed joking with Howie about “Possum”! 😀
Howie reminds me of the autists. Fixated to the point of being maddening. But it was easy to see he was as sincere as the day is long. I would have had his back with outsiders but surely wanted to slap him more than once.
Gonna miss those folks, unless there is some interesting future depurging we don’t know about. Otherwise I would not wish them to come here and get banned.
Guess I need to check out your rules/regs! Don’t want to get banned yet again. :8-(
I meant get banned from the Treehouse.
We believe that people are being banned from CTH for the act of posting here. Thus, if you invite somebody here, they are very likely to get cut off from the Treehouse, and if you know that, then you know the consequences of inviting them here. Some of those posters would be hurt by losing their posting privileges at CTH.
Q followers are a known “at risk” class there. They WILL be banned from CTH eventually.
Here are my rules, at least at the moment:
(1) Do NOT kill anybody with your words
(2) Do not drive other people away from here by intent
(3) Do not try to get this site or the people here into trouble with the law
(4) I may add more rules, but they’ll be the same kind of stuff
Almost everybody should be able to comply with these things. 😀
If CTH bans folks just for commenting here, that’s shudder worthy spitefulness.
It may be spitefulness – or it may be battening down the hatches.
Many of us believe that people like SD will be DEPLATFORMED (or attempts will be made)- including by PayPal and other donation services – just for having Q-followers on the site – even if those people’s Q posting is elsewhere. The cross-site action is something that Twitter and the others have already started – it is actually implementation of the Chinese “social credit score” model. I repeat – Silicon Valley is GOING CHI-COM.
What we may be seeing by Sundance is anticipatory action which will allow greater return fire. Q warned us about this – and I find that Q is very smart.
I cannot be monetarily deplatformed. All my back-up plans are rated FIRST for invulnerability to deplatforming.
For what its worth, I think Sessions intended to do just that. Then those doggone Senators boxed him in and convinced him (correctly or incorrectly doesn’t really matter) that he’d have to recuse on russia/campaign. That wasn’t too bad, right? Just one issue. But then it turned out ALL swamp corruption investigations led there, so his recusal basically had taken him out of that game entirely. He did plenty of good work elsewhere.
To me the tell is that he resigned, rather than forcing PDJT to fire him (an evil obstructionist would have gone in the most inconvenient way possible). The resignation turned it into a vacancy where Trump could name an acting AG. Also, he very likely helped Trump find the right guy to put on his staff so he’d be available when the time came.
So: He was a good chess piece, but he was pinned, unable to move without putting the king in check.
If Sessions had not recused, he would not have been given any peace to restore the DoJ to law and order, to attack the drug/p0rn/human/child traffickers, immigration issues, etc.
He probably did a LOT we will never know about.
Resigning and appointing Whitaker (who the left obviously fears greatly from their reactions and non-stop attacks) is a brilliant strategic move.
Sessions is an American hero in many ways.
It’s also a good time to retire. He has his health, family, etc. He can still advise to his heart’s content.
A man who would hire Stephen Miller and give him to Trump is a serious conservative warrior in my book. Miller is fearless, erudite, uncompromising. Says a lot about JBSessions!
Great post. Dismissing all that is not possible without being extremely disingenuous or deceptive, IMO.
I’ll add one more thing to this…sheer speculation on my part. Again this goes off my theory that Sessions’ recusal was at first an “oops, yeah he had to do it…okay we’ll work around it” hit, one where they realized it wasn’t good but they didn’t realize how bad it would be. Later on it became apparent that the recusal had blown a HUGE hole in Sessions’ ability to go after the deep state, and Team MAGA had to find a workaround. That workaround was getting an Acting AG in who was MAGA and unrecused.
Now, Whitaker was in place quite some time ago; Sessions could have stepped out of the way at any time in the last several months. Yet he didn’t. That implies to me there was some strategic reason to keep Sessions in for as long as he was actually kept in. Part of it might involve that Whitaker’s tenure is strictly limited; you don’t want to start that clock until *everything* is in place and he can do a ton of damage to the Deep State in a short time, because that’s all he has. Or, maybe we needed time to get the NEXT acting AG in place. Or maybe Sessions was useful as a distraction, sort of like Patton and his fake army in Britain before D-Day.
All speculation on my part. As far as I know, though, there aren’t any known facts that contradict the picture of “Sessions as a good guy who was outmaneuvered therefore trapped and hobbled.” I just don’t see it planned that way from the very beginning.
(And yes, it’s absolutely true he did manage to do a lot of good things in other areas, which is why I can’t see him as a black hat.)
Sessions also set Huber on the chess board and I bet a lot is going on in Utah with his work.
That’s an information black hole. We know he’s there…we have no real idea what he’s doing. We won’t know until either BOOM the trap is sprung, or…six years from now when nothing has happened and it becomes certain nothing WILL happen.
I can’t really have a good opinion on Huber for that reason. (I can HOPE for a certain thing to be true, though.)
Well said. Huber is a mystery, and we have to be careful separating wishes from trusts.
Hi Georgiafl….good to see you again!
I hope you will stick around; I always enjoyed your posts.
Love the new avatar and screen name.
Hey, Miss Wheatie! Boy have I missed you and your great comments which I always liked and Liked!
Ain’t our President great!?!
And his great team. Man O Man.
And didn’t my home states of Georgia and Florida dodge a bullet?
Hope you and your loved ones are doing well!
Hey GA/FL, I’ve missed you too!
It’s so great to hear from you.
And yes…our President is amazing isn’t he.
We are so blessed to have him at this turning point for our country.
And your home states of Georgia and Florida have been ground zero for some of the most egregious attempts at election-stealing that we’ve ever seen.
It is heartening to see that the Dems’ efforts have been thwarted.
Dodged a bullet bigtime!
Me and mine are well…and I hope you and yours are all doing well, too!
Thanks for asking.
I’m so glad you are here. I often agreed with things you posted and I noticed your absence and was really sorry you were gone. Gosh, I hope you make us a regular stop on your rounds!
How great to get to be with you again, Miss Sylvia. I had missed you and your comments so much.
It feels strange to be banned. But it happened to me at Right Scoop over Ted Cruz and Donald Trump. They do not allow dissent there – especially after Sooper Mexican took over.
GA/F
GAFl, blessings to you. Who is sooper-Mexican who took over? Lol.
Hi Zoe, I don’t know exactly who Sooper Mexican is….I’m guessing a NeverTrumper from the south west or Mexico. Probably open borders and amnesty advocate.
Was a big Ted Cruz fan.
Ah, good, someone needs to start counting around here, since I don’t (mind you).
Welcome!
You may not be counting – but you have a great wit! Keep on keeping us all laughing. We need it in the battles.
Very best to you! :8->
Snark. One of the many services I offer. 🙂
I have discovered something.
If you search online using for example, “Minne” + “theconservativetreehouse” then it seems possible to find older posts by our lost friends (that were made when not properly logged in). In theory, a reply to these older posts should send a notification to their email address. If your reply (if you are still able to make comments) slips past the WP key word bans, you should be able to point someone to Wolfmoon’s main blog.
I will try this, but maybe I’m wrong–I think it would be WordPress’s email, not Minnie’s. I also admit I am a tech ignoramus and would love to be told I’m wrong with an explanation of How it would Work. Thanks just the same. It’s interesting.
Appears I’m banned now.
Probably because of this post. 🙁
One by one, they are finding us. I’m sorry, ttt.
I guess so. My suspicious cat wants to know if the CTH mods even know this is happening.
There is some possibility that we are ALL under some kind of massive internet deception plan at the moment. There is so much smoke and mirrors, I’m just riding along and remembering that I’ve always trusted certain people for the last few years, and I’m not going to stop now. I’m just going to keep trusting them.
So true.

Sorry about the problems over at the CTH but I thought this ban was the case when we got back from vacation and
you were m.i.a.
Long time reader at the tree when I was still working for a living and read the post and comments of some of the old dearly departed who were of such a help to me.
Staying mostly on the prayer request thread for refreshment but still read sundance for knowledge and insight. Just a forgiving old soul here looking for some truth.
Looks like many here commenting are some of the ones that give pause for thought and reflection so count me in as a follower and best wishes for your success wolf.
Welcome to the refuge of the outcasts!! We are thoroughly enjoying “chewing the cud” with old friends in new surrounds.
Well thank you neighbor, It will be nice to exercise a little of our 1st amendment rights with old friends here @ The Q Tree
