My mother told me lots of people did not turn in their gold. And that was when people more or less trusted the govt.

And, they didn't get all of my great uncle's gold. They just took a bunch of the coins, but couldn't find all the rest he hid. But, according to him, they didn't fail to look.

People buried stuff in their backyard.

turn in all but small amounts of gold to the Federal Reserve in exchange for $20.67 per ounce.

That would only be $490.00 today; wheras today's spot price for gold is around $2,100. Something is fishy. Oh, wait... The federal government. But wait! ... a Democrat president.

I would venture to say that the American people are even more gullible now than they were in 1933.

Perhaps; but it's different subgroups, about different things.

Hey, just checking in, are you still proposing there will be no election this year? If so, ready to put some money on it?

Actually watching the way events are unfolding its starting to look like Trump may take this insanity all the way to November. I believe he wants these court cases to keep playing out for awhile and if the military steps in they go away.

I can see a scenario where we have another stolen election and chaos over the certification again. I still believe the military will step in at some point because there’s just no other way to restore the republic. The Congress and courts aren’t going to do it. But it seems like we are all going to have to go through a near death experience before its over.

The majority of the military leadership does not support the constitution. Last summer you said there was no way for an election this year, and so that is all I was following up regarding.

It looked like that to me several months ago and there were a lot of people with better information than me saying the same thing. Many still are.

We all know that there is no chance Trump or any other Republican wins the presidency in 2024. Its going to be stolen. I personally did not think Trump would agree to go through it. He has said repeatedly that there will not be another stolen election. He also said this coming election would not be the same as any other election we have had. So I felt like the election was going to be suspended for some reason. And it still might. Maybe the court cases all go away before November.
