Do you remember about 6 months ago when President Trump and Elon Musk and DOGE were talking about auditing the gold in Fort Knox?
Or even just going in there to look around?
It sounded like it was going to happen imminently and then nothing ever happened.
A new theory has emerged from Ed Dowd, who you might recognize. Ed did terrific work during COVID exposing many of the fake narratives back in 2020-era, and now he’s back with a theory he’s calling the “White Swan Collapse” and what’s really going on with Fort Knox.
I’ll just tell you the answer right now and then you can watch the video for more.
Simply put, Ed thinks the reason there hasn’t been an audit is not because there’s missing gold but because there’s MORE gold than we’ve been told!
And…he thinks it all ties in to a coming currency reset and re-pegging of the US Dollar to gold.
Wow!!
After you listen to him lay it out, it makes perfect sense.
This entire video is great, but I’ve cued it up so it should start for you at the 50:45 minute mark, which is right where the Fort Knox discussion starts.

After all, when we invaded Iraq, Libya, their Gold disappeared and went missing. Remember, Trump did say, “ He who holds the Gold makes the rules”.
Nope its gone
It’s in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills in somebody else’s name.
Load of crap. The gold is gone.
This article is Grade A extra pure, cold pressed BS.
It’s in a bank in the middle of Beverly Hills in somebody else’s name.C-L-A-M-P-E-T-T.
I think Ed Dowd is wrong on this one. And they will never go back to a gold backed currency if they can help it. They are trying to play games with crypto now and I don’t see that working either.
Too much gold? That’s an interesting theory, to be sure.
I still can’t wrap my head around this. Trump has spoken of the need for an audit of Fort Knox. That would be a reasonable thing to do.
An audit wouldn’t take much effort. A few investigators with a clipboard and a device to test the purity bars - that’s all you’d need.
But now we’re hearing nothing. Was Trump told something so bad that he shut up about an audit? It’s all very, very, strange.
🤔
“Load of crap. The gold is gone.”

YEP!!! Not nearly the amount of gold in there that we’re told!
Now as for tungsten?????
How does all this secrecy benefit the citizens of this country? After all, the gold belongs to us, not those in charge.
yep, this makes zero sense.
It is not like we would be able to count the bars if Trump went in with cameras.
the only thing obvious would be if it was gone. Having more or less than expected wouldn’t be noticeable.
Federal Reserve Paper Ponders Revaluing Gold Reserves To Market Price
Does he factor in this possibility in his analysis? More gold and a higher revaluing are both good things.
Now I'm off to watch the video. Thanks for the cue up.
great,normally we’re used to expeller pressed, glyphosate-laden, grade D (democrat) sprayed on us.

Great question. Trump is quite unlike most presidents before him. He owes his position not to a political party, but to us, everyday people.
So let’s say there’s something wrong at Fort Knox. A Deep State president would want to hide that. But why would Trump?
There never was any gold i. FT Knox. None to speak of.
Now the Dept. of Treasury, on the other hand, has a depository just off Post that has a good bit of the stuff. . .
maybe China has 10 times more now after “new mining sources” we read about last year.
There’s actually less gold there. Most, if not all, of the gold in Fort Knox is coin melt. Coin gold is 90% gold. The quotes you see in market reports are for .9999 fine gold. There’s a 10% or so differential if you use quotes to ascertain the value of it.
For years I’ve wondered about this. I had read that Iraq’s gold had been returned to them. Libya on the otherhand may be different. But if I were interested in re-establishing a gold standard, my plan would be to quietly work with gold miners in the USA and slowly have them refine a certain % of their production to slowly replenish/add the reserves. I would work out favorable tax inxentives with the mining companies such that it would all be on the down-low.
