What Happened to Trump’s Idea of Inspecting the Gold at Fort Knox?

Noel Lorenzana, a certified public accountant in Morton Grove, Illinois, who operates a channel on YouTube, called attention to the disappearance of the story about President Trump's desire to inspect the gold vaults at Fort Knox.

Lorenzana quotes geopolitical expert Jim Rickards' observation that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent probably talked the president out of the idea, lest scrutiny of Fort Knox disclose that the gold there has been leased, swapped, or otherwise encumbered as part of the U.S. government's longstanding policy of gold price suppression and currency market manipulation, and lest it remind the world that gold remains not just money but the highest form of it.

Anyone asking questions about gold leasing, Rickards remarked back in March --

-- is "tampering with the primal forces."

That's why mainstream financial news organizations never pose such questions and why, for the truth about gold, the world must rely on others, like Rickards, an accountant from Illinois, and, of course, GATA.

Lorenzana's program is 17 minutes long and can be viewed on YouTube here:
