The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has said - out loud and in front of people -, 'This administration believes that birthright citizenship is unconstitutional.'
Ms. Leavitt did not explain how Constitutional amendments are unconstitutional.

Cutting Federal funding and giving Federal employees the "opportunity" to resign with strong indications that they'll be made unemployed anyway...
Buy bullion. You're staring into the teeth of the mother of all recessions, the Depression could be a walk in the park compared to what President Flatulence is doing.

I'm not convinced that broth is the answer.
All kidding aside, what makes you think buying bullion will help? FDR made it illegal for Americans to own gold, there’s nothing to stop Trump from doing the same.
