What if There's NO Gold in Fort Knox?
from Heartland Newsfeed Podcast Network · host The Brian Nichols Show
Stefan Gleason, President and CEO of Money Metals Exchange, joins Brian Nichols to reveal what's really inside Fort Knox - and why central banks just bought 244 tons of gold in 90 days while your dollar quietly dies in your pocket. Here's the part nobody wants audited... the US gold reserves haven't had a legitimate audit in DECADES, 83% of it isn't even pure gold, and the experts say it would take 20 years just to refine it to modern standards. So what happens if we finally open the vault... and it's empty? Inside, you'll hear the uncensored breakdown of the biggest unanswered question in American finance. We walk you right up to the vault door. Stefan - a guy who runs one of the largest precious metals depositories in North America - explains why the way Washington manages your gold "wouldn't pass muster in any private depository," why the new Fed chairman quietly admitted the government plays in the gold market, and whether the most secure building in America is actually holding what they say it is. The dollar in your pocket is a political tool. They can print it, freeze it, weaponize it, and devalue it overnight by design. Gold and silver? They can't touch. So why do most Americans still own ZERO ounces of either... while central banks around the world quietly stack it by the ton? You'll hear the truth about whether it's too late to buy gold in 2026, the #1 rookie mistake that leaves beginners 50% underwater the second they buy, how to spot a rare-coin scam from a fair deal, and the surprising state-level wins happening right now while DC sleeps - 45 states now exempt gold and silver from sales tax, with Maryland and Alaska being the latest to move. Chapters: 0:00 - Intro 2:22 - The Rare Coin Scam That Robs Beginners 4:53 - Did You Miss Gold? (The Honest Answer) 11:34 - Silver, Platinum, Bitcoin... What Actually Wins 15:57 - How To Buy Gold In 2026 Without Getting Robbed 26:18 - The Sound Money Wins Happening Right Now 30:30 - 83% Of America's Gold Isn't Even Real 33:22 - We Open Fort Knox...
