Part 2/7:
Former President Donald Trump announced plans to initiate a verification of the gold reserves held at Fort Knox, claiming the site has not undergone a formal audit since 1974. This decades-long lack of transparency has fueled public and political speculation about whether the gold is genuinely present. In fact, many question the credibility of recent assurances from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen, who stated that the gold is regularly audited. Trump, along with figures such as Elon Musk, has expressed skepticism regarding these claims and suggested possible solutions, such as live-streaming an audit to instill confidence in the public.
