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.

Gatlin Bros! Dredging up memories for me, Gator! “Houston” is my favorite.
What if they go in with cameras and fake gold bars (ala the movie ‘Goldfinger’)? Video would be an interesting sleight of hand.
1953 to now...a MAJOR increase in value.
BUST the unconstitutional FED RES.
Time to bring back the steaming pantload alert meme
Agree, however, the world’s Central Banks are buying Gold in historic amounts.
A return to a full, Gold redeemable currency is not going to happen, but Gold will have a role in backing paper and digital currencies.
Pull up Judy Shelton’s interviews about creating 50 and 100 year fully redeemable Gold Treasury Bonds, in July 2026.
“ Judy Lynn Shelton is a former American economic advisor to President Donald Trump in his first term. She is known for her advocacy for a return to the gold standard and for her criticisms of the Federal Reserve…”
Note BIS (the world’s International Bank) has now made physical Gold a “Tier One Asset”, effective July this year.
That’s just the California gold.
I am bewildered how people always assume Trump is omnipotent. He is not! Suppose he got a briefing where he was given a list of "do not go there" topics, and then told that his life depended upon compliance?

“What if America backed its debt with gold again?
In this powerful episode, economist and former Federal Reserve nominee Judy Shelton shares her bold vision for restoring trust in U.S. money. From a historic rethink of the Treasury’s role, to issuing gold-convertible “Trust Bonds” timed to America’s 300th anniversary, Shelton challenges decades of monetary policy and calls for a return to lasting value….”
I have viewed many of Shelton’s interviews, here are a few, worth viewing for those not up to speed.
exactly, we watching a video of Trump walking through a room full of gold bars would have no way of knowing if that was mroe or less than what was supposed to be there and even if what we were seeing was even real gold.
The whole exercise is useless.
Given how the dishonest the federal government is, I wouldn’t be surprised if those bonds get “modified” before their maturity dates. Kinda like how silver certificates were supposed to be redeemable in silver. Well, that stopped in 1968.
OF COURSE THERE IS! We saw it in Goldfinger!
Tryin’ to be a hero, winding up a zero can scar a man forever right down to your soul
Could be. But most all have missed this Bill introduced to Congress to FORCE a Gold audit. Very little mentioned about this from MSM, it should have made headlines.
H.R.3795 - Gold Reserve Transparency Act of 2025
“To provide for the first true audit of gold owned by the United States in more than 65 years and to conduct subsequent audits every 5 years.”
https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/3795/text
> Suppose he [Trump] got a briefing where he was given a list of “do not go there” topics, and then told that his life depended upon compliance? <
I doubt the physical threat part. But I can very much believe the “do not go there” part. So why not audit Fort Knox? It has to be because the gold is not there. Or it is there, mostly in fake bars.
That sounds crazy, far-fetched. But what other reason could there be?
Unfortunately, I hid mine in my mother's basement.
While I was in the federal pen some maintenance dude found it and sold it for pennies on the dollar!

What?! Did Fort Knox lose the combination to the vault!?!?
The story disappeared so fast from the Enemedia, many conservative blogs, and even Elon, that it created a sonic boom across the Midwest.
“Suppose he got a briefing where he was given a list of “do not go there” topics, and then told that his life depended upon compliance?”
Who gave this briefing?
Gold was last revalued to $42.22 a troy ounce in 1968 trying to defend the dollar. It didn’t work. Nixon closed the gold “window” for central banks and the dollar allowed to float.
Assuming all the gold is still there - and “unencumbered” as it were, not pledged or leased, at current market price it would cover about 12 weeks of federal spending.
“Agree, however, the world’s Central Banks are buying Gold in historic amounts.”
Except for Russia!
What gold they haven’t sold was stolen by Putin.
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.

You are mistaken. Much written about what a Full Assay Audit to industry standards entails. Then records must be examined ( Federal Reserve and Treasury) to see how much has been “ encumbered “- leased out.
Most familiar with full audits state a full assay of Ft Knox alone would take ( they hold only about 4,000 tons) at least 18 MONTHS and that doesn’t include Denver, New York or West Point depositories or tracking down lease agreements ( if there are any).
Best you let the professionals take care of the audit.
