DOGE to audit Fort Knox

Speculation on the X is that the US government is the buyer (via proxies) that is standing for delivery via COMEX (and causing the drain of LBMA metal) in anticipation of an audit (and revaluation). It doesn't really make sense to me (I think they would acquire the metal OTC or via other channels so as to not disrupt market operations if they were interested), but a lot of peeps seem to be running with it.
 
Makes more sense than trying to outrun tariffs.
And indicative of a possible move to gold backed usd …..

I guess they need to keep pog down while they prepare for this, hence Friday beat down?
 

If there are good guys behind the scenes it makes some sense. In essence we are bankrupting the corporation known as the USA. What better way to go back to your Constitutional Republic with a big stash of Gold. Your gonna need it. Plus, it also just so happens to help put a nail in the coffin of your enemies that started that corporation of the USA to steal wealth.

Why they choose gold and not silver I don't know.
 
This guy does forensic accounting analysis of various investments (he's been very active in calling out NVDIA and SCMI for months). Today he posted some thoughts on what would happen if the LBMA did actually default/break down:

THE CONSEQUENCES OF A GOLD TSUNAMI HITTING THE LBMA - JustDario

The 2013 gold market crash, triggered by a sudden collapse in COMEX futures prices, exposed vulnerabilities in the global gold trading system. At that time, paper gold markets—dominated by futures contracts and speculative trading—overshadowed physical demand, creating a fragile equilibrium...

Essentially, on the issue of cui bono?, the USD and the West stand to lose from the LBMA liquidity drain and breakdown of the global gold trade. The East (and especially China) stands to gain the most. Would the US government (ie. Trump administration) initiate a plan to destabilize the global gold trade to the benefit of China? Does that make sense to anyone?
 
I'm not sure I follow. Can you break it down a bit for me? What I'm understanding from your post is that you are positing that Trump is pushing for the US Gov, via the COMEX, to break the LBMA and global gold trade which mostly benefits China, because he is at war with banks? Trump purports to love the USD. He's made public threats against nations not to abandon the dollar. If he were pursuing this gold attack, it would be undermining the dollar and diverting the global gold trade to China. It doesn't really make sense to me.

Fort Knox should put in an order at SD Bullion.
 

Here, I had pretty much assumed it had all been stolen but hadn't seen this story before. Basically the FED stole the Gold. Now we are at war getting it back. Or Trump is one hell of a con man and actor.

 
Tricky, these people are, what do you think he Really means when he says the "dollar". Do you think he really is talking about a Federal Reserve Note?

Agree with the guy in the vid. Start out front with the msm. Give a short interview as to why you are there, go in with cameras on, look the place over and have it live on national tv. No matter what the findings do it live so everyone can see what the truth is. IMO it's a win-win for all.
 
They need to test the bars too. Some are saying the new stuff from the UK has tungsten.
 

 
Why is it pronounced "nocks" and not "ka-nocks"?
 
Look who it is.............(fwiw)

Fort Knox EMPTY?! Dollar Collapse & Global Chaos Incoming!​

Is Fort Knox EMPTY?! For over 50 years, there hasn't been an audit of the U.S. gold reserves. If the truth comes out and the gold is gone, what happens next? A collapsing dollar, loss of global trust, and financial chaos could be on the horizon. Let’s break it down and look at history, preparedness, and what this could mean for America and the world.

Trump & Elon to Fort Knox | How Early We Still Are in Silver Gold​

Premiered 7 hours ago

Careful, Mr. President. Get to meddling with gold. You might get more turbulence than you were expecting.
Gold seems to be finally having its Media Attention moment in the 21st Century bullion bull.\
US President Donald Trump went on tour this week, hammering home that he's heading to Fort Knox to see part of the nation's still-world-leading Official Gold Reserve stockpile.

I sent Trump a message that they may find the Fort Knox gold is mostly melted coins and not .999 good delivery bars. Instead of assaying them into .999 they should be converted into new collectible coins with a Fort Knox privy mark. I would mint Indians, Liberties and St. Gaudens with the current date.

Roll the profits into .999 bars. They did something similar with the silver bars from the Atocha, the Spanish shipwreck found by Mel Fisher.
 
Well, if there is one thing Trump understands, it's leveraging public interest for merchandise sales.
 
I wonder how many 5 and 10 dollar commemorative coins, plus 1 ounce and 1/2 ounce gold coins were made out of the .900 finess gold bars that were there.

This one is a bit different. It's WWII history concerning British gold, Fort Knox, the cash & carry policy and Operation Fish. Interesting and a nice bump for the thread.

Fort Knox & Secret WW2 British Gold​

Feb 25, 2025

If President Trump audits Fort Knox, the famous US gold depository, he will probably finds thousands of gold bars dating from WWII - the results of a secret operation ordered by Winston Churchill to ship Britain's entire bullion reserves to the US to pay for American aid for Britain's costly war effort. Operation Fish is not well-known, but its importance to the history of Britain was critical, particularly to its...

NBC News’ Steven Romo reports on how a conspiracy theory about missing gold at Fort Knox spread to the White House. The federal facility holds half of the country’s gold and has only been opened twice since 1943 for President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
