Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief of Miles Franklin Media, speaks with Dr. Judy Shelton, former Federal Reserve nominee and former senior economic advisor to President Donald Trump, about a potential turning point for the U.S. dollar coming July 4, 2026 – the nation’s 250th anniversary. Dr. Shelton reveals that her idea is gaining traction in Washington – a gold-linked U.S. Treasury bond that could redefine America’s monetary system.
Dr. Shelton, Senior Fellow at the Independent Institute and Author of 'Good as Gold,' discusses how these bonds could restore faith in the U.S. dollar, offset currency debasement fears, and bring the dollar back to a form of sound money. Could this be America’s Independence Day Reset – a turning point that re-anchors the dollar to gold and restores monetary trust?
Dr. Shelton also tells Makori about a potential Fort Knox gold audit that could be in motion under the Gold Reserve Transparency Act and explores the implications of a gold revaluation, the U.S. strategic position in global finance, and the future of monetary systems anchored to gold.
In this interview: Gold-linked Treasury Trust Bonds How the Gold Reserve Transparency Act could open Fort Knox for a public audit The logic behind re-pricing U.S. gold reserves to market value ($42 → $3,900+) How July 4, 2026 could mark a new monetary era of sound money and discipline What it means for the U.S. dollar, debt markets, and gold investors
Except the price of gold is set by statute. Trump can’t change that. And its would never pass Congress.
This is another Martin Armstrong style fever dream.

“Where is our full audit of our Ft Knox Gold reserves that was promised by President Trump?”
Where? Right beside the Epstein spy ring files, the JFK records and the Charlie Kirk autopsy report of course.
“...Where is our full audit of our Ft Knox Gold reserves that was promised by President Trump?...”
Probably swept under the rug when they found out there was nothing in the vaults to audit...gone. and nobody knows anything.
Or, there is more in the vaults than they want to admit.
I don't know which is true, but either way it seems that they don't want to reveal the truth.
Except the price of gold is set by statute. Trump can’t change that. And its would never pass Congress.
You would do well to watch the video interview with Shelton, it answers many questions...from Trump paying for real estate with three kilo gold bars, Trump’s ability by pen stroke to change the revaluation of gold, to discussion on a 50 year Gold bond or 30 year Gold bond, to thr amount of interest our Federal Reserve pays to foreign banks ( yes, $$$ billions)...take time to learn, your opinion is opinion.
I really like Judy Shelton, but a gold “trust” bond still relies on trust.
Also, IBTG.
The Gold Trust Bonds are of interest, if as stated “ Redeemable in Gold”, however, who will wait 50 years for redemption?
You will recall when Nixon took us off the Gold standard, France primarily and others traded their US dollars ( redeemed) for Gold- reducing our 20,000 ton ( yes 20,000 tons) Gold reserve down to our current 8,100 tons. Drained us dry, Nixon had no choice but to stop the drain.
Hahahahahahahaha ;-)

You may be interested in knowing that Canada has no gold reserves. None. England has very little. Anything we might have is better than none. But the bigger problem for US citizens is that most of them have nothing except a large amount of household debt. And no savings.
When will the good old Roosevelt gold grab is coming?
LOL! Envisioning Feds trying to snatch the neck bling off hood rats and rappers.
Seriously though, her scheme is no better than some that rotate around crypto-currencies (BitCoin, etc.). The more people into it the more value it gains - but without tangible reality beyond the investors shared vision.
Our currency itself is a shared suspension of disbelief not unlike stage magic, professional wrestling and Democrat Party promises. The entire world depends on it for everything to function so we share faith in it's value whether it has any backing beyond it's ink-on-cloth physical form.
It’s all in the Oval Office.
When will the good old Roosevelt gold grab occur?
———————
Judging by today’s total loss of trust in our government ( it will never be won back), AND with America armed up, I doubt they will attempt to STEAL again.
With where Gold is headed( $5K plus and plus), many will find the government’s theft the hill to die on.
“With where Gold is headed( $5K plus and plus),”
LOL! In 2014 you said gold would hit $5k in 2015!
“The TX Gator has been awol recently, probably suspended from FR, again”
You Socrates fails AGAIN!
Too late, China and BRICS control the amount of physical gold that is needed for such scheme to work.
Still less than what China owns, but maybe the reason our promised Gold Reserve audit has not occurred, as promised. In any case, the U.S. will have to do a full audit for their scheme to work.
The tide is going out....we will see shortly who is naked.
“The tide is going out....we will see shortly who is naked.”
The tide went out on you years ago.
