US: A “sovereign citizens” group sent letters to 30 state governors demanding that they step down within 3 days or “be removed.” The FBI is investigating to see if the group is dangerous or may inspire others to violence. [We think sending such letters is a silly waste of time, and the FBI is merely doing its job in this case; but mainstream media already is using this story to demonize any group that is critical of government policies by lumping them together with race supremacists and domestic terrorists.]

The system is hopelessly corrupt and is destined to collapse. If you buy gold, take delivery.
