One way to revolt is to change how taxes are removed from your paycheck. Just go to HR and file the paperwork to not remove taxes from your paycheck. You will still be responsible for paying them yearly to the federal government, but you don't have to pay them in advance like you are now.

With Trump Unbound, It’s a Tale of Two Strategies for Democrats in Congress President Trump’s blizzard of actions elicited two very different responses from Senate and House Democrats β€” one media-saturating and one restrained β€” reflecting a debate on how best to respond.

Not sure why everyone is upset about the bible thing. When was he ever religious? Personally, I would never put my hand on a bible to swear an oath to anything since the bible is responsible for most of the negative bullshit in this world. This may be the only thing I agree with Trump about.
