Tea Party movement tends to
be anti-government, anti-spending, anti-Obama, anti-tax,
nationalistic, in favor of strict immigration legislation and
against compromise politics. Since the 2012 elections, many
local Tea Party factions have shifted their focus to state
nullification of the health care law, and protesting the
United Nations Agenda 21. The Tea Party is skeptical towards
the courts, shows a commitment to individualism and takes an
originalist view in constitutional interpretation. The Tea
Party is opposed to the bailouts, stimulus packages, and has
expressed an interest in repealing the Sixteenth and
Seventeenth Amendments. It is also in favor of amending the
Constitution to grant states the right to veto federal laws.
It is known as the Repeal Amendment.

Agenda 21 is a non-binding, voluntarily
implemented action plan of the United Nations with regard to
sustainable development. It is a product of the UN Conference
on Environment and Development (UNCED) held in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992. It is an action agenda for the UN,
other multilateral organizations, and individual governments
around the world that can be executed at local, national, and
global levels. The "21" in Agenda 21 refers to the
21st century. It has been affirmed and modified at subsequent
UN conferences.

Agend 21, according to Glenn Beck: A violent
and tyrannical government rules what was once known as
America. The old, the ill, and the defiant all quickly
vanish. Babies belong to the state. Against all odds, one
young couple risks everything to expose the truth. But are
they too late? Just a generation ago, this place was called
America. Now, after the worldwide implementation of a UN-led
program called Agenda 21, it’s simply known as “the
Republic.” There is no president. No Congress. No
Supreme Court. No freedom. There are only the Authorities.

The 16th amendment gave the US the right to
collect an income tax. The more money you make the more you
are taxed. The largest amount anyone is taxed is 15% (Bill
Gates rich people) This money goes to the federal government.
The 17th amendment is direct election of
senators. Before this point senators who were going to run
were chosen by the leader of the polictical group, and could
choose for whatever reasons he wanted (like he liked person B
best, not because person B would be the best) After this
amendment voters regestered if they were democrat or depublic
and then voted for the senators they wanted to run in their
group...

Repeal Amendment: Nullification, in United
States constitutional history, is a legal theory that a state
has the right to nullify, or invalidate, any federal law
which that state has deemed unconstitutional. The theory of
nullification has never been legally upheld;[1] rather, the
Supreme Court has rejected it.
