50 current and former Treasury officials have stated that any calls for an audit of gold reserves has all the hallmarks of a Russian Disinformation Campaign.

Most of the Gold is already long gone and has been since the 70’s.

The really touchy problem though is that much of our stored deposits of gold is other countries gold we store for them. Things get awful ugly if it ain’t there anymore.

Post 1971 there was no reason to keep it there. I wager it has been raided and sold off outside of a few impressive looking racks for show purposes.

Yes, there may be a point where things come apart at the seams and really blow up. Fort Knox is one of those that could rock the world.

I think DOD audit could also do it but in a different way.

Oh I’d bet it’s still there; the question is: Who owns it?

BS

It was there in the 70s. I was there, I moved it in 77 in support of an audit. There had been audits in 75, 76, and there were audits after my year for at least a few years, not sure when they quit, lost track of it.

Well the Morphine is there in the event of a nuclear war and the nation is mostly dying of radiation sickness.

Nearly a half trillion dollars of worth is 25 percent of our budget deficit every year. Meaningless if it is there.

Original documents from founding fathers?
Gold coins that were sent into space?
Other extremely rare mint coins?
