Glenn Beck: Why Trump Must Audit Fort Knox’s Gold Reserves Now!

Elon Musk, through DOGE, is shaking up the swamp and freaking out the Left. While his team is working toward government transparency, one of its next moves needs to be digging into perhaps the biggest financial secret in U.S. history: the real status of the American people’s gold. For almost 90 years, America’s gold reserves at Fort Knox have been locked away, unseen and mostly unverified. The last official audit was over 70 years ago, and as Glenn explains, that audit was hardly comprehensive. So what’s really inside Fort Knox? With global markets shifting and questions mounting, Glenn says NOW is the time for real transparency. He traces the murky history of America’s gold — from FDR’s confiscation to Nixon’s break from the gold standard — and warns of the financial reckoning on the horizon. He heads to the chalkboard for a simple explanation of rehypothecation and why it matters. Is all of our gold accounted for? And if not, what happens next? As Glenn, Elon, and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) push President Trump to open the vault and restore public trust, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent assures Americans on Bloomberg that the gold is accounted for and promises, “Any U.S. senator who wants to come and visit can arrange a visit through our office.” Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), who was previously denied access to Fort Knox after multiple requests, tells Glenn he’s ready to take Sec. Bessent up on his offer.

Victor Davis Hanson: Sorry Liberals. DOGE is 100% Legal. Here’s Why

Is the Left taking the bait? While many in the legacy media continue to berate Elon Musk for his role in defunding bloated federal programs and agencies, Donald Trump remains largely unscathed. Is this part of a larger strategy by President Trump, asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words”? “He's more legitimate—or he has more statutory legitimacy—than earlier presidential advisors like Harry Hopkins, who moved into the White House under the FDR administration, or Bernard Baruch, who basically ran two world wars, in terms of domestic production, under Woodrow Wilson and FDR. So, let's just dispel the idea that he's doing anything unusual.” “As far as the executive orders that created the DOGE program and eliminated USAID—that was perfectly legal in itself—USAID was created by John F. Kennedy in 1961, by an executive order. There was a statutory direction for the president to disperse foreign aides into a comprehensive body, but it didn't say USAID—he could do whatever he wanted. And so, Donald Trump has decided to end autonomous USAID and fold it into the State Department for disaster relief or poverty relief or famine relief.”   “All Donald Trump is doing is saying, ‘I don't believe the impoundment act is legal. We'll see what the Supreme court—but I'm just following the precedent that Joe Biden did.’ But now the shoe's on the other foot.

GLENN BECK: The REAL Reason why Democrats went INSANE at Trump Cabinet Hearings

What's going on in Washington, DC? President Trump's cabinet nominees like Tulsi Gabbard, Kash Patel, and RFK Jr. faced hostile confirmation hearings as both Republican and Democratic senators grilled them on insane things. But why would Bernie Sanders, for instance, oppose RFK Jr., a fellow critic of Big Pharma? Why would someone like Doug Burgum get an easy pass to lead the Department of the Interior when climate change is allegedly the biggest crisis we face? It's because these senators don't care about "truth," Glenn Beck argues. They care more about preserving themselves and stopping any nominee who will expose their corruption. But the American people have had enough. The truth WILL be revealed. That's why Trump needs his cabinet...

Will Biden’s Pardons BACKFIRE? ~Why Fauci & Others Now MUST Testify!

Famed attorney Alan Dershowitz tells Glenn that he would be “very upset” if he was one of the people Biden pardoned in his last few days in office. Members of Biden’s family, Dr. Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley, and January 6th Committee members all received preemptive pardons, allegedly to stop Trump from taking revenge on them. But Dershowitz argues that now, they look guilty and have lost their right to plead the 5th. If they’re subpoenaed before Congress, they MUST admit the truth. Dershowitz also reveals why Trump’s promise to end DEI was his favorite announcement of Day One. Plus, he explains why he’s “much more optimistic” about America than before and why he will “never” call Trump a convicted felon.

Why California Officials Shouldn’t Get a DIME of Wildfire Aid Without MAJOR Conditions

House Speaker Mike Johnson has caused some controversy by suggesting that any wildfire aid given to California MUST come with conditions. But should this be controversial … or common sense? Glenn reviews 3 reasons that the Californian government shouldn’t receive a dime from U.S. taxpayers without major restrictions. If the REAL “science deniers” like Governor Gavin Newsom can’t admit that their own policies helped fuel this disaster, Glenn argues that we can’t trust them with our money. California was warned days before the fires that conditions could cause a blaze. And there are fires in the state EVERY year. So why wasn’t California prepared?

Why is Bill Gates Suddenly Investing BILLIONS in Nuclear Power Plants?

Want to know how the elites’ playbook works? Take a look at Three Mile Island. For decades, the media used Three Mile Island, the site of the worst commercial nuclear accident in US history, as the poster child for why we CAN’T invest in nuclear energy (even though the incident resulted in ZERO people losing their lives. But now that Bill Gates needs more power for Microsoft’s data processing centers and AI programs, the media is once again rejoicing over nuclear energy! Glenn Beck explains how this tells us all we need to know about how the elites work: They’ll use propaganda and lies to stop average Americans from having nuclear energy, but as soon as THEY need it, they’ll reverse course.

Why the Bourbon Street Massacre Is Part of a GLOBAL Pattern

How did a Texas-born Army veteran become a radicalized ISIS supporter who killed at least 14 people and injured dozens more in New Orleans? Glenn reviews the latest on the Bourbon Street massacre on New Year’s Day: What happened during the killer’s recent trip to Egypt? Should the FBI have had enough information to apprehend him earlier? Was this truly a “lone wolf” attack or is it part of a growing pattern that has plagued Europe for years? How many radical Islamists like him have crossed the border illegally over the past few years? "This was more than just a tragedy," Glenn says. It should serve as a warning to our government: there are major cracks in our system that are widening.
