There’s nothing like a DOGE audit of Ft. Knox to help usher in the new Golden Age!

I’m not sure if I’m correct here, it seems that Trump knows quite a bit more about this than I do.

But if we are missing gold, isn’t that a really really really bad thing? Like, war?

We take loans out based on assets.

And shouldn’t someone be auditing the federal reserve gold?

Hey look, a B-52 bomber filled with gold just landed upon hearing the news.

I don’t care about whether the gold is there as much as I do about who owns it. I’m betting it was collateralized decades ago.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said last week that there is an audit every year and that “all the gold is present and accounted for.”

If there’s no gold there, I would imagine the consequences to our markets etc would be catastrophic, but I’m not an expert on these things. Someone else here could enlighten us.

“Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said last week that there is an audit every year and that ‘all the gold is present and accounted for.’”

How does he know? Has he been there and seen it, or is he relying on documents he’s seen? He’s only been there for a few weeks.

That’s funny. Five years ago that would’ve been toilet paper.

Yeah, sure, because I trust the democrats so much on this that I can just take their word for it.

Google, “going to the gemba.” It’s a Lean Management & auditing principle.

Wouldn’t you like to tag along? I would, if for any reason to verify the Goldfinger movie set.
