Upon approval of the Edmunds-Tucker Act 1887:
Congress had "turned the last key that seals their condemnation and lays the foundation for the overthrow & final destruction of the United States Government."
This is particularly interesting to consider in light of Ether 12:35-37

Notes

Some authors have argued that America cannot fall before the second coming. However, I see no concrete argument supporting that supposition. In fact, I'm inclined to think that Wilford Woodruff's assertion regarding the destruction of the United States is correct. There seems to be plenty of evidence that the destruction of the United States is probable.
