Many of the quotes attributed to the founding fathers in two of Rand Paul’s books are either fake, misquoted, or taken entirely out of context, BuzzFeed News has found.

Paul’s first two books — Government Bullies, which was as an e-book a bestseller, and The Tea Party Goes to Washington, Paul’s first book — lay out the conservative manifesto he hoped to bring the Washington following the Tea Party wave in 2010.

A heavy theme in Paul’s books are that the Tea Party movement is the intellectual heir to the founding fathers, with Paul often arguing he knows what position our country’s earliest leaders would have had on certain issues.
