I hope the GOP congresscritters analyze which Tea Party orgs were put through this harass/delay process. I would bet that the orgs in question were all concentrated in the key 2012 battleground states (Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Virginia....). A deliberate strategy to keep these 501(c)(4) from forming, fundraising, and engaging in GOTV in time to affect the election.
I suspect the ONLY thing that will remove Ol’ Purple Lips from the White House will be Hillary’s swearing in.
Good question! I bet you are onto something there.
It is unfortunate that Tea Party types not only have to fight the liberal/socialist/statist/entrenched Democrat/Bureaucrat wing but TOO often the RINO wing it seems. Patriots are a threat to status-quo power structure.
