FORT KNOX EXPOSED: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GOLD INSPECTION? — NO AUDIT, NO TRANSPARENCY, AND WHY DID TRUMP BACK DOWN?

FORT KNOX EXPOSED: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GOLD INSPECTION? — NO AUDIT, NO TRANSPARENCY, AND WHY DID TRUMP BACK DOWN?

Where is America’s gold? Fort Knox hasn’t been fully audited since the 1950s — and in 2025, Trump promised an inspection, then suddenly backed down. No transparency. No answers. Just silence. This investigation asks the question no one in power dares to face: What are they hiding?…

….. Trump Promised Transparency. Then Walked Away. Why?

Early in 2025, President Donald J. Trump announced plans to authorize a full audit of Fort Knox — the first in over 70 years. Supporters cheered. Economists prepared. Skeptics sharpened their pens.

Then, without warning, the initiative was quietly shelved. Trump called the concerns over Fort Knox gold “a debunked conspiracy theory,” dismissing the public demand for verification as “unnecessary paranoia.”

Why the U-turn?

Some say intelligence agencies warned of “national security implications.” Others suggest internal pressure from the Treasury or Fed. No one knows for sure — because nothing official was released. But the reversal left one truth standing:

The audit never happened. Again…..

It’s a valid question.

And I trust Pres. Trump will deal with the issue.

That’s why we hired him.

Have some patience.

And some faith.

And not just in Trump.

Remember Butler. :-)

The dollar index has dropped from 110 in January 2025 to 96 as of today.

In the same time period gold has increased from $2669 to $3347.

If Trump were to audit Fort Knox and find there is no gold in the safe, gold prices would soar.

So that may be the reason Trump in reneging on the pledge to audit Fort Knox as it would create a bedlam in the gold markets.

It would be Cool if Trump had a press conference walking us through Fort Knox showing us all The Big Beautiful Gold.😄👍
We do deserve this Man and I thank God for me to be alive during this time to see what one man can do all by himself.
Thanks again Mr. President.

Is his term over? Nope. Then why are you declaring all the time he has left void of any further actions you are looking for him to accomplish?

“If Trump really believed that the gold was gone, he’d be down there in a second,” said Eric Thorson, a retired Treasury Department inspector general and one of the few people to have personally audited the gold stash at Fort Knox.”

Trump has gone back on many promises he made, including eliminating DST, so I’m not happy with him on many things.


Though I agree with the first part of that, I still think he’s way ahead of any other politician in promises kept.

Like I keep telling leftiests, when it comes to the job he’s doing, I compare him to other politicians, not Jesus. We’d all fall woefully short if it were the latter.

How hard would it be to do an audit? Go to Fort Knox with clearance, open up the vaults, and see if there are gold bars. Test them for authenticity, count them and voila, I think that’s it. Granted, there’s a lot of them, but they’re not going to get up and walk away. Unless they’re not there....hmmmmm.

“tells me something stinks…”

Socrates stinks. Over $700,000,000 lost in bad trades. Three bankruptcies and eleven years in prison.

Though I agree, I would like an update. But we’re on the same page with this and things like it. What matters is that he gets things done within “time limits”. And these limits are things like the mid-terms and the next presidential election.

I would not be surprised if we get the answer before November of 2026 on this and a LOT of things that take time to accomplish.

Good question.

Better question.

“Why do we still know nothing about that guy in Butler?” Elon Musk asked in February in front of a large crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference outside Washington. “Kash is going to get to the bottom of it,” he added, referring to Mr. Trump’s F.B.I. director, Kash Patel. The crowd cheered.

But in a recent interview on Fox News, Mr. Patel at his side, Dan Bongino, the deputy director of the F.B.I., said there was simply no “big, explosive there there.” He added, “If it was there, we would have told you.”

If it is not there - or depleted - what happens?

Wide spread panic?

I think he went quiet because the truth would cause an economic meltdown

Um, Trump still has a few years to inspect Fort Knox. It ain’t over until it’s over.
————-
Much written about how, when, where to conduct a full, independent, certified assay audit….minimum time required projected to be 13 - 18 months.

Due to the size of an operation like this, it is possible they are quietly working behind the scenes on security clearances, work force, checking lease trails, choosing an independent auditor, and much more.

Yes, time will tell. I do believe Trump is aware of how important his promise made is and knows the blowback if he goes back on it….especially at a time when the USD is selling off and the world’s Central Banks are buying historic, record amounts of Gold.

The Bill introduced in Congress to force an audit is not favorable to Trump.
