From my understanding, the "Tea Party" in American politics is a conservative group of republicans that formed in 2009. Their goals are economical. They want to limit government. They oppose excessive taxation, and they support immigration control. Ex: The Tea Party group started in 2009. Ex: We, the Tea Party, believe the government can't tell you what foods to eat. => reference from the video.
