In 1782, the U.S. Congress made E pluribus Unum – Latin for "Out of many, one" – an unofficial motto of the United States. It was added to the National Seal.
In 1956, Congress passed an act making "In God We Trust" the nation's official motto.
Today, E pluribus unum is devolving into E pluribus chao: "Out of many, chaos".
As the devolution continues, In God We Trust takes on greater importance as We the People's trust in the Federal Executive Branch (Pentagon leadership, the State Department, the Department of Justice), both houses of Congress, and the Judicial Branch of the Federal Government (up to and including the U.S. Supreme Court) dissolves.
