FBI RAID ON TRUMP HOME WILL NOT

INTIMIDATE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

Akron, OH: Today, Tom Zawistowski, President of the national TEA Party-affiliated We the People Convention (WTPC) and Executive Director of the Portage County Ohio TEA Party, called the politically motivated and legally dubious FBI Raid yesterday on the Home of President Donald Trump another attempt to intimidate the American people that will not work.

Zawistowski said, "We are justly outraged by the clearly politically motivated FBI Raid on the House of President Donald Trump yesterday, but we are not surprised. Their goal is to stop Trump from defeating them in a fair election and to intimidate the American people with the threat of illegal and illegitimate force. 'If they can do that to President Trump, what can they do to you! You better not question this illegitimate government or vote for him!' We the People will not be intimidated by this blatantly theatrical, unnecessary and illegitimate 'show of force'. We are disgusted by it and we are more determined than ever to stop it and bring those who practice this lawlessness to justice. We fought them when they illegally used the IRS to target the TEA Party in 2011, and defeated them in court. We will fight them and defeat them again even after they try to use their new army of 87,000 IRS Agents to target the middle class and small businesses who they see as a threat to their power over us." 

Zawistowski continued, "What our enemies in the Media and in Government and in Big Business forget is that the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement did not start with Trump and it does not end with Trump. The rise of the TEA Party in 2008 was the beginning of the awakening of the American people to the truth about the corruption in our government and our nation. Trump rode that foundation to a Presidential victory in 2016, but the true conservative movement has grown exponentially since then, not because of Trump, but because of the American people becoming more and more educated and engaged in the issues that affect our lives. From the tyrannical abuses by government during covid, to the attacks on parents who were questioning their schools for forcing marxist ideology and deviant sexual behavior on their children, average Americans are seeing first hand the corruption of the government and our society by the Democrat Socialists and their Leftist anti-American supporters. While our enemies and their supporters are 'woke', We the People are now 'awake' and we are determined to restore our Constitution and the Rule of Law and defend our rights and are willing to pay the price to do so."

Zawistowski concluded, "They wrongly think that if they can stop Trump from running, that they will stop us from taking back control and destroying them. They could not be more wrong. Trump's 172-14 endorsement record proves this. Does anyone think those 172 candidates are any less committed to the MAGA agenda than Trump is? Does anyone think that if DeSantis were elected President that he would not execute our MAGA agenda? What if it were a Jim Jordan or Kristi Noem? Does anyone doubt the corrupt deep state and their media sycophants would not be doing the same things to DeSantis that they did and are doing to Trump? The issue is not Trump. The issue is the people in the US Government, not OUR government, who have betrayed their oath of office and privilege positions to serve themselves and not the American people. The issue to the American people, which is provable by the actions of the bogus January 6th Committee and this Raid yesterday, is that these traitors to our nation will do ANYTHING to keep their power over us including by the use of force. It will not work. We will defeat them all and drive them out of our government starting this November."
