Elon Musk and DOGE To Audit The Gold In Fort Knox Next?

“Fort Knox” has become so well known and so closely associated with Gold that it’s become a common part of our everyday language.

Phrases like “guarded like Fort Knox” are used all the time.

And if you were going to store nearly 5,000 metric tons of gold all in one place, you would most certainly need to make sure it was highly secure, naturally.

Unless….unless the place was empty all along?

We’ll get to that in a minute, but first some statistics:

The United States holds approximately 8,134 metric tons of gold in its reserves. Of this total, about 4,583 metric tons (or 147.3 million ounces) are stored at Fort Knox. This means that Fort Knox holds a significant portion, but not all, of the U.S. gold reserves, with the remainder being stored at other locations like the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Denver Mint, and West Point.

That’s a lot of gold!

But is it all still there?

Was it ever there in the first place?

Surely we would have regular checks and reports about that, right?

Well, surprisingly (or perhaps not so surprisingly considering it’s the Government) the answer to that question would be NO.

In fact, Elon Musk chatting with ZeroHedge today on X revealed there has not been one single audit or report about the Gold at Fort Knox since 1974!

Of course Elon already knows this, but he asks the question to further the conversation and to get the topic into the minds of the American people.

Much the same way President Trump will start suddenly shoving a topic into the limelight.

And it’s working.

Rand Paul, the top ranking Republican in Kentucky (where Fort Knox is located) has called for Elon Musk and DOGE to audit Fort Knox:

Alex Jones is calling for the same thing:

Elon Musk has made it very clear that he wants to Audit Fort Knox as well.

It seems like the only remaining hurdle is President Trump’s direction to do so:

Here’s more, from the NY Post:

Elon Musk could get a golden audit.

The world’s richest man got encouragement Sunday to bring his cost-cutting Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) into one of the most secure places in the world: Fort Knox.

Sen. Rand Paul called for a review of the vault’s massive gold reserves — worth an estimated $425 billion based on market rates — in response to the tech mogul’s musings about the stash.

Musk, 53, drew attention to a user who asked him to “take a look inside Fort Knox just to make sure the 4,580 tons of US gold is there.”

“Surely it’s reviewed at least every year,” Musk replied to X user Zerohedge.

“Nope. Let’s do it,” Paul (R-Ky.), 62, chimed in, referring to the Army installation south of Louisville.

The Kentucky senator’s father, former Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) — a big gold bug — had previously pressed government officials for greater transparency on the country’s reserves.

It’s unclear the last time the facility underwent a comprehensive audit, as the vaults were totally off-limits for decades.

The first tour of the facility came in 1974 when journalists and a Congressional delegation were allowed in following claims the stores had been looted. The vaults were opened again in 2017, during the last Trump administration, for Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin to view them.

Since at least the 1970s, Fort Knox has been plagued by conspiracy theories that the piles of gold supposedly held within don’t exist – and that the riches were instead sold off by the US government.

Former Rep. Paul’s attempt to get inside in 2010 even included legislation that would see the fort audited, using similar language to what his son is now employing.

“My attitude is, let’s just find out what’s there,” Paul said at the time, according to CBS News.

When Mnuchin visited in 2017 — bringing along Rep. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) — the gold stores they saw were intact.

But the vault’s relevance is not what it used to be since the US left the gold standard in 1971. For about a hundred years before then, all US currency was backed by stockpiles of gold kept safe in places like Fort Knox.

But since the US left the gold standard, its holdings in Fort Knox are merely another asset held by the Federal Reserve.

Nevertheless, Fort Knox’s hold on the public imagination has been strong — and was solidified when the fictional criminal mastermind Auric Goldfinger attempted to break in but was thwarted by James Bond in the iconic 1964 film “Goldfinger.”

The real vault has at least 147.3 million ounces — 9.2 million lbs. — worth of gold sitting in its vaults, according to the US Mint. That’s about half of the Treasury’s reserve gold.

(The largest gold vault in the world is actually in Lower Manhattan at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York Building, but that also houses gold from other governments.)

The government assesses the book value of $42.22 per ounce, totaling about $6.2 billion worth of gold in Fort Knox.

But that’s almost a comical undervalue; gold is currently trading at nearly $2,900 per troy ounce after skyrocketing in the last year — meaning the stash is worth hundreds of billions.

Now late this evening reports are starting to emerge that DOGE will, in fact, perform the audit:

I have not seen an actual Audit confirmed, but we will closely monitor this and bring you updates.

The ONLY Two Gold Companies I Proudly Partner With

The ONLY Two Gold Companies I Proudly Partner With

Gold is currently sitting at All Time Highs as I write this (and has been for weeks), so I thought it might be a good time to revisit this and make sure you had this information handy.

In the midst of covering politics, we also cover money from time to time...and while I'm not a financial advisor, I share what I'm learning in the hopes that it can help you and keep you and your family safe.

And that often leads me to covering Gold and Silver.

You know, what they have always called "God's Money".

He made it, they aren't making any more of it, and it has always been highly valued as money from the beginning of time until now.

So I'm a big fan and I think it has the potential to do big things if, say, the U.S. Dollar were to suddenly collapse.

So that's why I talk about it and why I want to make sure everyone protects themselves and your families.

So to answer the question of "what can I do?" it's really quite simple: you need to get some #Gold or #Silver in your own possession.

It's called "physical" gold and silver.

Not paper traded garbage on the stock exchanges that isn't backed by anything.

Don't touch that stuff.

And because I get asked so much how to buy it and what the best places are, I thought I would publish this and just get it out there for all to have....

I have two special hook-ups for you and these are the ONLY two companies I am proud to partner up with on Gold and Silver.

Both involve PHYSICAL gold and silver.

Because if you do NOTHING else, make sure you own "physical" gold and silver, not paper contracts.

The paper contracts (like stock ticker SLV and GLD) could very well go POOF one day and disappear or go to zero, because they're not actually backed by the gold and silver they claim to represent.

It's a massive game of musical chairs out there and when the music stops (and I think it will stop soon...) people who only own paper might find themselves owning something not worth the paper it's literally written on.

And I know you'll never forget it if I give you this GIF so....Let's Get Physical:

Now...WHERE do you get physical gold and silver and how do you know it's real and safe?

And that you're getting the best price?

Oh, and how about personal one-on-one real customer service?

You know, like you were some Big Wig millionaire at Goldman Sachs who could just call their personal banker and get help?

That's what I'm about to tell you.

I have two killer connections for you...

1️⃣ The first is for purchasing gold and silver bullion, bars and/or coins.

You may recognize Andy Schectman from Miles Franklin.

He's prolific on YouTube and just a brilliant guy, I've followed him for years.

I've partnered up with Andy's company, Miles Franklin, and I'm really excited to show you what they can do!

In fact, Andy's going to be coming on my show, the Daily Truth Report (follow us on YouTube and Rumble) in the future, and you're going to want to make sure you don't miss those.

Andy is a wealth of knowledge about the precious metals markets and crypto, and I've covered him here many times in the past.

Now I'll get to chat with him myself, and I'm really looking forward to it.

I'm spoken directly with Andy and his team and they have assured me they will take very good care of anyone in the WLT Report family (that's you!).

At Miles Franklin, everyone gets personal attention from their team of brokers and you'll get whatever level of hand-holding you prefer.  They'll also customize a deal just for you, but you have to call them and tell them NOAH sent you!  They'll handle it from there.  1-952-929-7006

There is no minimum order size and no maximum limit.

I think you'll love working with them, I already do!

You can reach them at 1-952-929-7006 and make sure you let them know that Noah sent you over, they've promised me the best of the best service and pricing for everyone in the WLT Report family.  🙌

(You can visit their website too, but best pricing is by phone)

That's the cheapest and most economical way to do it, to stretch your dollar into as much gold and silver as possible.

You'll get a personal phone call with one of their top brokers, personalized, white glove concierge service at no extra cost to you....whether you're buying $500 or $50,000, they'll treat you the same.

How about that!

No sales pitch, just real, actual help.

And the best prices you will find.

Ok, that was #1.

Now I want to tell you about option #2.

2️⃣ An equally great company, I am so happy to be working with these guys is Genesis Gold.

This is for people who want to purchase real physical gold or silver in their IRAs (Investment Retirement Accounts).

You know what the beauty of that is?

Two huge benefits actually...

First is TAX FREE baby!

I'm not a tax advisor, but that's a general oversimplification.

Never pay more taxes than you are legally required to pay.

And that's why I love getting gold and silver in my IRA (and why I hold a large chunk in an IRA myself!).

Second is if you simply shift money out of stocks (like Peter Schiff recommends) and into Gold, it won't cost you anything!  No money out of pocket!  

BOOM!

There's so much to love about Genesis Gold, starting with the fact they are proudly and un-ashamedly Christina!

They call it "Faith-Driven Stewardship" and they put it right on the homepage of their website along with a quote from Ezekiel:

Wealth Preservation With Gold & Silver –
The Genesis Gold IRA

By your wisdom and your understanding you have made wealth for yourself, and have gathered Gold and Silver into your treasuries – EZEKIEL 28:4

Genesis Gold Group believes the Bible gives clues on how man-made currencies (paper money) represent instability, and a lack of virtue and encourages living wastefully in excess.

Conflicts have beleaguered us since the dawn of civilization, and they can all be encapsulated into one battle. The battle is between currency, man-made paper, and gold and silver — the two precious metals found in our Earth’s crust, sent to us by our Lord to use as money. Man-made currency always leads nations down the path to increased war, greed, and ultimate collapse. History has shown that abandoning gold and silver has always been a bad idea. Gold and Silver enforce discipline, nurture self-constraint, self-reliance, and balance, and lead to confidence, a restrained government, and a more stable foreign policy.

Genesis Gold Group believes in empowering faith-driven stewardship with Gold & Silver are an integral part of a balanced portfolio. Protecting your finances with precious metals has never been more crucial during these trying times.

With a combined 50-plus years in the precious metals industry, let your Genesis gold and silver experts guide you through the simplicity of asset protection and growth with our Genesis Gold IRA.

Sincerely,

Genesis Gold Group

Empowering Faith-Driven Stewardship

Oh....and they're VERY good at what they do.

You also get physical gold and silver with Genesis, believe it or not!  The gold and silver is purchased for you (in whatever combination of coins and bars you prefer, a picture taken and sent to you, and then stored safely in a vault for you!

I love what these guys are doing.

Here's more on why gold and silver in your IRA are so powerful:

You can contact Genesis Gold here.

They are also very backed up with record demand, so you may have to wait a bit, but someone WILL get in touch with you for personal customer service and assistance!

Tell 'em Noah sent ya!

Oh, and did you know Genesis is recommended by SUPERMAN himself?

It's true.

Superman himself, Clark Kent -- Dean Cain -- came on my show a few weeks ago and we broke it all down:

Watch here:

Stay safe!

Make sure you can weather the storm when it hits!

Because the storm always hits eventually, doesn't it?

As for me and my house, we will be ready. 💪
