Well, maybe this is what you need to know about the Tea Party:
1) One of the early supporters / members of the Tea Party was House Majority Leader, Dick Armey. Armey was the man who authored the globalist legislation that created the TRILLION DOLLAR plus monstrosity called the Department of Homeland (IN) Security. Nobody seems to be able to justify its creation:
'Homeland Security': The Trillion-Dollar Concept That No One Can Define
Armey would remain a Tea Party supporter for nearly a decade after creating that wasteful agency that drove us closer to a One World Government
2) It was Tea Party Republican, Rep. James Sensenbrenner, that introduced the so - called "
Patriot Act." More Americans than foreigners have been victimized by this unconstitutional disaster that allows for warrant less search and seizures, pursuing people and denying them Due Process, and even killing people without probable cause. I can testify to its misuse and misapplication
3) Rep. James Sensenbrenner also introduced the National ID / REAL ID Act - E Verify. That was an Orwellian idea that was more like Hitler's tattoo idea on steroids. In the late 1990s the general public was against National ID by a margin of 87 to 13 percent with the conservatives leading the charge against it.
Also bear in mind that National ID was proposed in the midst of the Fair Tax gaining traction. While the Fair Tax may never have gotten enacted, it did bring pressure on the illegally ratified 16th Amendment (which is a plank out of the Communist Manifesto.) National ID gave Socialist Security a reprieve since your Socialist Surveillance Number ...oooops, "
Social Security Number" became your de facto National ID "
unique identifier" which gave a pretext for saving the 16th Amendment
4) If the Tea Party is all about a free market, it does not stand to reason that they adopted the
solutions of the National Socialists on the immigration issue. Instead of promoting the Rule of Law and foregoing forced citizenship, the Tea Party fell for an agenda that the Democrats had tried to introduce some years ago. We have an opportunity to rethink the whole strategy, but the Tea Party is mesmerized by a program of insanity on this issue and unable to even have a productive discussion. So infantile are those who buy into it, if you do not agree with their
solution, they accuse you of being for the left
5) Then there is the wall worship and Donald Trump playing the part of Jesus. You're for fiscal responsibility and a free market? When you propose an idea, do you REALLY consider anything besides the start up costs? What about the maintenance costs? Better still, what about a policy's affect on Freedom and Liberty?
I'm sorry, but in reality since its inception the Tea Party has passed far more expensive laws than the Dems ever could have. The Tea Party would demand that Americans fund the Tea Party albatrosses - which the community organizer did and then they complain about how much debt we've taken on. AND, adding insult to injury, we've yet to have that conversation about lost liberties.
When your standard bearer is a man is for gun control: bans on so - called assault weapons, wants waiting periods, supports red flag laws, and the ban on bump stocks (unconstitutional on three grounds going beyond gun control); the same guy who nominated a
POLICE STATE tyrant that is also anti gun and will abuse eminent domain statutes, I'm not seeing what you're seeing.
Everything is bass ackwards and upside down.
