Just a short note of something rather insignificant in the grand scheme of things….
We are told by the powers that be – that approximately 6,000 to 7,000 American citizens were rescued by daring efforts of the U.S. State Department and U.S. military in evacuations from Kabul airport. Okay, fair enough… that’s a good outcome. Happy to hear it; we can debate the other 116,000 at a later time.
However, it seems a little odd now that there’s no videos of the survivors of the Afghan crisis arriving at airports. No crowds or families greeting the extracted American residents; no human interest stories and local broadcasted news coverage of relieved Americans, husbands, wives, daughters or sons arriving back in their hometown…. nothing.
Six to seven thousand Americans saved from the clutches of the Taliban, and not a single story of those Americans arriving home to the waiting arms of their loving family.

In order for left-wing ideologues to continue advancing their ideological belief system, a system built upon intentional fraud, they must pretend not to know things. This truism is the inherent core of their hypocrisy.
For the past several years the ultra-progressive left have been selling a ridiculous narrative that multiple genders exist. Within that multi-gender worldview, men can get to compete in women’s sports and also get pregnant. They even changed the language of mother and father to “birthing person”. Wokeism and cultural Marxism are deployed against anyone who does not accept this assertion in society. When you challenge the progressive orthodoxy with intellectual argument, the response is always an emotional attack in defense of their unsustainable position. A case study in this exact outcome happened today during Jen Psaki’s press briefing.
The White House spokesperson accidentally (and very forcefully) took the public position today, that only two genders exist. WATCH:
Other revelations today include:
“My body my choice,” except forced vaccinations against you are okay.
Also, “my health status is dependent on your medical condition,” so, it’s okay to slap the cheeseburger out of your vaccinated hand – right?
Fear is at the core of modern liberalism, and love/trust is at the core of conservatism. Modern liberalism, most commonly evolved to leftism, is about control. Conservatism is about self-empowerment.
Control is a reaction to fear. Think in terms or politics and society – the fear behind liberalism is the fear that someone might withhold things (opportunities, money, whatever) from me, fear that if you live your life in a way I dislike that it might affect my life, fear that if you get that job, there will be nothing left for me. Fear that if you make tons of money, it’s means there’s less money out there for me. So people who believe in leftist ideologies seek control as a means of trying to create guarantees and safeguards against those circumstances they fear.
Modern “liberals”, leftists, try to control the world and people to enable their comfort and happiness. Which, as we know, is an endless quest. Trying to control others does nothing in the way of making oneself happy. By extension, voting in this mindset so that government can try to control others will also – shocking – not lead to a happier, more comfortable life.
The conservative (and moderate, independent, but for the sake of expediency, the conservative), on the other hand, relies on himself to meet his own needs. And the trade off of being free to live his life as he wishes is also understanding that he has to make peace with how you live yours. By extension, aware that he wants to be able to hold onto this liberty and freedom forever, the conservative votes accordingly, so that everyone can remain free and in charge of his or her own life.
But here’s the crucial difference, perhaps, particularly where misery on the left stems: The conservative does not worry, so to speak, about you. The conservative knows that you were born with the same access to self-love, self-empowerment, self-determination and self-reliance that we all were, no matter the circumstances into which you were born. (Think about the millions of people this country has allowed to crawl up from poverty into prosperity – the conservative KNOWS this is possible.) And the conservative believes that if you want prosperity, or a good job, or a good education, you can make it happen – but you have to work hard.
The conservative hopes and intends that the free markets bring you all of the affordable and positive opportunities and resources that you need. The conservative also knows that on the other side of that hard work is great reward – material and, more importantly, emotional, spiritual and mental.
The conservative understands that not only is it a waste of time to try to control you, it’s actually impossible. Humans were born to be free. And if we put a roadblock in front of you, you’ll find another way around it. So, we see attempts at control as a waste of resources, energy and time at best, and at worst, creating detrimental results that serve to hinder people’s upward mobility or teach dependence. We see much more efficiency, as well as endless opportunity, in leaving you to your own devices. And we want the same in return.
This is where modern democrats mis-view conservatives as heartless. But really, the conservative believes that there is one and one path only to sustainable success and independence – and that is self-empowerment. All other avenues – welfare, affirmative action, housing loans you can’t actually afford – ultimately risk doing a disservice to people as they teach dependence on special circumstances, the govt, or arbitrary assistance (that can disappear tomorrow). And the real danger – they will ALWAYS backfire, and leave the recipient in equally or more dire circumstances. Any false improvement will always expire.
The conservative believes in abundance. The liberal believes in scarcity.
The conservative believes man is born free and will be who he is, no matter what arbitrary limitations or rules are put on him. The leftist believes man is perfectible, and by extension, believes a society at large is perfectible, and command and control is justified in the quest to a “perfect” utopian society. (Sounds familiar!)
The conservative tends to be more faithful – and not necessarily in God, but in the ability of the individual to find great strength in himself (or from his God) to get what he needs and to be successful. Therefore, the conservative has an outlet for his fear and disappointment – trust and faith in something bigger.
The leftist believes the system must be perfected in order to enable success. Therefore, disappointment is channeled as anger and blame at the system. Voids are left to be filled by faith in the govt, which they surely then want to come in and “fix” things.
And therein lies the roots of love and fear respectively. For the conservative, when life presents great struggles, he knows he has the power to surmount them. Happiness stems from internal strength and perseverance. For the modern leftist, when life presents great struggles, the system failed, therefore they were at the mercy of a faulty system, and they believe that only when the system is fixed can their life improve. Happiness is built on systemic contingencies, which they will then seek to control or expect someone else to.
One blames himself. The other blames anyone and everyone but himself.
And there it is. There’s where the meanness comes from. The leftist ideology causes that person to cast anger at the world when things go wrong or appear “unfair.” He constantly chooses only to see the “injustices” – and that makes for a very miserable, mean, blame-casting existence.
One last point that we have seen over and over and over with many (not all) of our leftist friends: Extreme stinginess and cheapness.
In our conservative community growing up, we were always taught that you give when people are in need – make donations to the Red Cross when there’s an earthquake, donate to charity when you can afford it, etc. Even if it’s just $50 here and there – it’s the right thing to do. Conservatives see this as the responsibility that comes with gaining from the capitalistic system; if you happen to benefit greatly from the system, it’s your duty to give back.
The liberal, on the other hand, does not seem to share this same viewpoint, at least not in my experience. And perhaps I think this is linked to believing in scarcity, and that your dollar comes at the cost of mine. So it seems that liberals, on some level of consciousness, feel guilty about not being voluntarily charitable. Therefore, to write off their guilt, they outsource their “generosity” to the government by voting for wealth re-distributive policies. Thus, the liberal cheats himself of the joy and addictiveness of direct generosity. (Not to mention – re distributive policies ALWAYS end up dis-empowering those who they’re meant to help.)
However each of us got here, it’s probably a fact that we have the turmoil of those storms in common, perhaps some unease that we could share and always, we also find fresh ground to cover from day to day. We’re developing valuable relationships as we trust one another in our community in the woods. The chatting in the branches encourages, strengthens and equips for some serious walking.
We think the Treehouse is a good armory for those who doing long distance walking for the sake of our nation. We hope you’ll think so, too. Find yourself a good branch….or just pull up a rock to the campfire.
Quarantine has historically been used to segregate those who are sick. Tyranny is when the entire population is restricted from movement without permission, as was the case under the Stasi. Propaganda is when the media becomes the tool of those in power to promote tyranny under the pretense of quarantine for your health benefit.
The ONLY way to defeat COVID 100% is to quarantine those using it to promote tyranny. Then you will see COVID be magically transformed into the annual flu where you have the right to accept or deny the vaccine to Bill Gates’ dismay. Of course, poking a hole in the raft is discretionary.
Meanwhile, COVID has virtually cured the seasonal flu. Cases of the flu have dropped 95% to the lowest in 130 years thanks to COVID! If we now isolate and quarantine all politicians for life, that will surely then cure COVID for good!

A free-range citizen made it through the filtration process and appeared on livestream before the Dallas City Council. His rigorous advocacy for the totalitarian mandates and forced vaccines was welcome amid the tribe…. until he started helping them a little too much. WATCH:

People wonder why they should be paying attention to what happens in Australia. Well, quite simply, if you can identify where the test facility is for technology to merge with totalitarian objectives, it becomes valuable to follow what they do – and then predict what the future might look like for you. Australia and New Zealand are testing the parameters of merging the objectives of the control state with technology and citizen compliance.
A year ago, the leftists in U.S. media were cheering the COVID responsibility of Kiwis and Aussies. However, things are starting to take a very dark turn now. Even the ultra-far-left Atlantic Magazine is starting to become aware, and what they are seeing is becoming worrisome.
[T]he government of South Australia, one of the country’s six states, developed and is now testing an app as Orwellian as any in the free world to enforce its quarantine rules. People in South Australia will be forced to download an app that combines facial recognition and geolocation. The state will text them at random times, and thereafter they will have 15 minutes to take a picture of their face in the location where they are supposed to be. Should they fail, the local police department will be sent to follow up in person. “We don’t tell them how often or when, on a random basis they have to reply within 15 minutes,” Premier Steven Marshall explained. “I think every South Australian should feel pretty proud that we are the national pilot for the home-based quarantine app.” (read more)
The South Australian directorate is merely following the path of what already exists in Western Australia and Tasmania. The state government is monitoring COVID compliance via cell phones, geolocation and random inquires to check the status of citizen compliance. Yes, there’s now an app for that. An “app”? The term sounds so innocuous; and they are proud, publicly proud, of the system they are putting in place.
(ABC NEWS Australia) […] “I think every South Australian should feel pretty proud that we are the national pilot for the home-based quarantine app.”
The Premier said South Australia will report results back to National Cabinet in the coming weeks. … “We just use it to verify that people are where they said they were going to be during the home-based quarantine.”
Once a system is built where government is permitted the use of technology to advance their goals under the auspices of “public safety”, it only takes a few more nudges until that system is then used for control, not safety. The term “safety” then shifts from the deployment of a government process to protect the citizens, to the use of that same process to protect the government from the citizen…..
Eventually, people forget why they are taking off their shoes at an airport and given a full body scan. Eventually, the COVID monitoring app shows up on every cell phone without even being requested. The compliance becomes easier to permeate.
In many ways the predictable Skynet is being built in front of our eyes, and yet so many people cannot follow these nudges to their logical conclusion. Indeed, as we have noted for the past eighteen months, there are many seemingly intellectual people who cannot look up long enough to see exactly where following the feeder pellets are leading them:

Against the backdrop of COVID compliance and the totalitarian efforts of various world leaders, it does not seem coincidental that Australia and New Zealand are two partners within the “five-eyes” intelligence apparatus; Canada, the U.K. and U.S. are the remaining three. Indeed, an argument can be made that Aussies and Kiwis are the test populations for the objectives of the western alliance.
Recently, a mash-up of statements was released highlighting Comrade Premier Gladys Berejiklian, the leader of the Australian New South Wales Directorate, showcasing the mindset and outlook of regional officials toward any formerly ‘free range’ citizen who might challenge the dictates of the regime. WATCH:
The remix is somewhattongue in cheek. However, given the actual rules imposed by the COVID compliance divisions within Australia, the message is not far away from where the ultimate end-game of the governing authority is heading. Last week, the New South Wales Ministry of COVID Compliance announced locked-down citizens will be permitted to get married again; however, only five persons of ideological alignment will be permitted to witness any formal union or celebration.
During the announcement (video below, first six minutes), NSW COVID Compliance Health Minister Brad Hazzard, also announced various government officials have reviewed the potential social impacts from an absence of procreation; and determined that without further breeding the ministerial ruling-class could lose the workforce they need for ongoing services. It is therefore in the best interests of the state for the regional ministry to approve a restart for the institution of marriage.
The restart of state approval for the institution of marriage is welcome news, and was made while contrasting sad news of two citizens who recently died from the Coronavirus. Both formerly free-range citizens were females, one in her 70’s and one in her 80’s, and they are latest victims of COVID-19; which is a warning for the entire population of several million about the severity of risk.
In case you missed it…. a few days prior to this, the Premier of the New South Wales directorate announced citizens would be permitted one hour of exercise outside the home, as long as the newly regulated and authorized activity takes place within open hours during the ongoing lockdown. A curfew remains in effect from 9pm to 5am daily. The new hour of outside exercise is permitted between 5am to 9pm, and –just like prison yard time– the time will be carefully monitored by state compliance officers.
Non-compliant citizens, who may be tempted to exceed the permitted hour of exercise time, should remember the state can monitor free-range activity via geolocation from cell phones (portable transponder). Most Australian citizens located outdoors are required to keep their electronic medical identification available for review by authorities at checkpoints as well as their essential worker permits. To ensure the public health, citizens must also scan QR codes at designated monitoring locations.
The state appreciates compliant citizens who monitor their neighbors for wrong thinking, and use the national alert hotline to notify authorities of any rebellious individual who may exceed their approved outdoor recreation time limit, or any rogue citizen spotted attempting to exercise outside of the approved times of day. [New South Wales Article] – [Queensland Article]
♦ The Premier of the New South Wales directorate (Sydney area) is Comrade Premier Gladys Berejiklian. She has announced a magnanimous position to relieve the stress upon the year-long lockdowns.
As the Australian news is reporting:
(Via NINE NEWS) […] “From September 13, households living in the NSW government’s LGAs of concern will be allowed to spend an additional hour of recreation outdoors, as long as all adults in the household are fully vaccinated. This is on top of the already-permitted hour of exercise, meaning households will be able to visit a park, Ms Berejiklian said. However, people must take this hour within the current and ongoing curfew hours, which will continue.” [9pm to 5am]
“Outside the LGAs of concern, through the rest of Greater Sydney and regional NSW, five people will be allowed to gather outdoors, as long as all adults are fully vaccinated.”
“People who live alone can nominate one designated family member or friend to visit for companionship. However, “Singles bubbles” will be required to be registered on nsw.gov.au” (read more)
Masks are mandatory everywhere outside the home except when exercising. However, authorized workers must carry a New South Wales essential workers permit and present their papers at each checkpoint during travel or transit.
♦ Moving slightly north to the Queensland Directorate, they are proud to announce a new COVID Quarantine Camp being built to the West of Brisbane in a place near Toowoomba.
The nearest hospital is two hours away, but that didn’t stop Queensland’s Comrade Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk from signing a lease on the remote area to build a 1,000 bed involuntary quarantine camp for persons who test positive for COVID-19.
Comrade Annastacia Palaszczuk said construction has begun on Thursday for a dedicated regional quarantine facility at Wellcamp Airport near Toowoomba following months of discussion. The premier said the fit-for-purpose facility will be ready by the end of the year, and will eventually have the capacity for 1,000 beds.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Thursday the facility does not meet national guidelines, but wished the state “every success” as they build the involuntary containment and quarantine facility.
The federal government has previously said it was not in favor of a quarantine facility at Wellcamp, because it did not meet the criteria of being within easy access of a passenger airport terminal or tertiary hospital.
BRISBANE TIMES – […] “The facility, near Toowoomba, would be almost a two-hour drive from the nearest tertiary hospital in Brisbane but could accommodate international passenger flights along with the limited overseas freight that already lands at the site.
Positive patients would be transported either by ambulance or airlifted to Brisbane’s existing COVID hospitals.
Asked if the Prime Minister knew about the announcement, the Premier said, “I’m quite sure he does now,” confirming she had not spoken to him and federal approval was still needed for such flights to be redirected to Wellcamp, which she hoped would come once the “heat” was out of the issue.
“We can bus people from Brisbane up here if we have to,” Ms Palaszczuk said. “If you build it, they will come.” (read more)
This is urgent.
We are in a race against the highly contagious Delta variant and we don't know what's next.
Construction on the Wellcamp regional quarantine facility has started today.@Wagner_Corp expects the first stage to be delivered for use by the end of 2021.
Following months of speculation, a regional COVID-19 quarantine facility is now firmly on the cards to be built near Toowoomba.
500 beds will be available by the end of the year, with a total capacity of 1000 beds to become available by March 2022. #Covid19Qldpic.twitter.com/oDEl05i7bs

We must walk though the Darkness before we see the light
It’s dark and gloomy because too many totalitarian-minded tyrannical politicians are having a field day telling the western world what to do. They’ve replace our freedoms with what I call ‘safetyism.’ All it takes is a handful of covid cases for the politicians to lock up and terrorize millions of citizens. It’s as if we have our own Taliban threatening us with force and violence if we do not agree with them.
Australia is getting the worst treatment, but New Zealand is suffering, too. Trudeau in Canada and Macron in France are getting their jollies by mandating vaccine passports. The evil-minded in America such as Biden, Pelosi, and her nephew—California Governor Gavin Newsom–want the same. (Newsom is sometimes referred to as ‘Hairdo.’)
How do we stop these dark forces? Voting may not be the answer. The Democrats stole our presidential election and the same means can be used to keep Newsom from being recalled.
No matter what happens, we should not participate in our own demise. Do not take their poisonous jabs. RESIST!
We are winning. The elections in September around the world are going to be critical. It would be so fantastic if Canadians stopped voting for these small parties and ban together to overthrow Trudeau once and for all. Overthrowing these politicians who have lined their pockets against the people and the future of their own countries, will be a major signal to this Gates-Schwab-Soros leadership behind the Great Reset.
Trudeau has been dropping like a stone in the polls but the Canadian Press is desperately pulling the same stunt the US press did against Trump and what they did against BREXIT. The two major parties are both on board with the tyranny and COVID oppression. A new party is rising and if the Canadian want to get their country back, they need to boot Trudeau out. Otherwise, we will see the separatist movement rise and we may even see the province of BC split joining Alberta.
For months, I have been getting info from behind the curtain where there are still people who are against this entire agenda. I refrained from publishing most of what I heard not that it was wrong, but it was so far-fetched it certainly seemed like a conspiracy theory. This push using COVID for a pretend passport is far more than simply this vaccination. Absolutely everything about you even suspected anti-government feelings are to be recorded on your file PRECISELY collecting the same data as the Stasi of East Germany. I have done my best to try to inform everyone without seeming that it was over-the-top. I have stayed away from all the stories about implanting chips to track you because that was not what I was hearing from reliable sources.
They have used COVID, which I swear was deliberately released at perfect timing, to create a panic where people would surrender their lives and destroy the entire world economy. We are approaching the 2-year mark and this is NEVER going to end because they do not GIVE A SHIT about you, your family, or your future. Gates, who was indoctrinated by his father to believe the population of the world had to be reduced, is NOT interested in creating vaccines to save humanity. He and the Rockefeller Foundation want to REDUCE the world population as typical elitists often do because they think they are God. These are VERY dangerous people that history will one day catalog up there alongside Adolf Hitler for his belief also in Eugenics.
They have terrorized the people to create their own power base. They have many in the medical profession acting as drones attributing everything to COVID wiping out the deaths and cases of the seasonal flu. Hardly anyone dies of the flu anymore for everything is COVID to scare the hell out of people, keep them socially distant from one another, and destroy families and friends by creating divisions. They have the FBI acting like the East German Stasi instructing friends, family, and neighbors to report on one another. They have succeeded in these goals and the objective to keep the younger generation in isolation is working in many areas. The youth have fewer friends and the suicide rates have skyrocketed.
People are being denied normal healthcare all because of COVID. Now there are hospitals telling nurses that they MUST be vaccinated or they are fired. They have worked for over a year without being vaccinated. All of a sudden, they are a threat by staying unvaccinated? Those in the administration have lost their minds and this is now just a me-too movement void of common sense.
We face a very dark future ahead void of humanity as we have known it. They are trying to indeed create a world we own nothing – only the elite to whom BigTech believed they have entered the door to this lofty status as they help to censor everything to further this agenda. I believe they are using our models and are well aware of the timing in the Economic Confidence Model. They KNOW their window to take over the world is a short one closing in 2022.
Never in the history of society has such a major effort been undertaken to seize control. I believe the election was rigged and Trump really won BECAUSE he was all that was standing in the way of this agenda. He simply had to be removed – not like JFK for he would have been a martyr and his followers would have been even more emboldened. They had to remove Trump by sheer corruption. I was warning the election was NEVER about Trump v Biden. I hope you now can see what I was fighting for. I was asked by someone in the Republican Party to convince Trump not to run in 2024 and to advise DeSantis because he was a “better administrator” as they said. I told them they had their head up their ass because they were clueless about the real agenda. But this has indeed seemed too far-fetched.
They will fail. It is up to us to wake up and stand for what is right. From the Russian Revolution of 1917, it was 72 years until Communism collapsed in 1989. If we remain complacent walking around like mindless drones with our masks frightened of death that will never come from this man-made virus, then they will collapse the world into dust in 13 years – 2032. Now is the time. If they succeed in retaining this power beyond 2022 (a 3-year reaction), then we will see the worst of the worst going into 2032 which will be 13 years of destruction of Western culture.
People need to open their eyes. Look at these COVID passports. They are NOT about a mere vaccination. Stop arguing over what is in the vaccine. That is only the tool they are using to divide and conquer for a much larger agenda. They told you what they are doing. Read between the lines.

Jaime Herrera-Beutler, from Washington state congressional district-03, is one of the DeceptiCons in the House. Not only did she vote for President Trump’s impeachment, but she also voted to support Nancy Pelosi’s 2022 election effort through the January 6th Committee. JHB is essentially a vile, self-serving worm of a politician with no redeeming qualities.
“Joe Kent is a retired Green Beret and Gold Star husband running against RINO and incompetent Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler in the 3rd District of the State of Washington. Joe served his country proudly for many years and understands the tremendous cost of America’s wars in the Middle East, and elsewhere. In Congress, Joe will be a warrior for the America First agenda, unlike Jaime Herrera Beutler who voted, despite the facts, against the Republican Party and for the Democrats’ Impeachment Scam.”
“Joe Kent is strong on Crime and the Border, loves our Military and our Vets, and will protect our Second Amendment, which is under siege. I met Joe at Dover Air Force Base on the evening that his wife was being brought back from the Middle East, where she had been killed in combat. It was a very sad moment in Joe’s life, but I was incredibly impressed with him and told him that he should someday run for office—we need his voice and leadership in Washington, D.C. Now he is running, and Joe Kent has my Complete and Total Endorsement!” ~ President Donald J Trump
