Matthew 21:12-14 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all of them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves,
And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.
And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.
Jesus cleared the temple of money changers because the temple was the house of God, a holy, pure place, and the money changers were being dishonest and cheating people.

In 1798, the United States Congress passed four acts in the times when the war against France was a matter of any moment. These acts were called the Allien and Sedition Acts and were very controversial. Specifically, the Naturalization Act, increased from five to 14 years, the requirement to get American naturalization. The Sedition Act punished the ones who spoke against President Adams. The Alien Enemies Act authorized the US government to deport the male citizens of an enemy nation in times of war.
