Trump Revives Fort Knox Audit Push, Wants to Knock on the Vault Door
Summary
President Donald Trump recently reignited the debate over auditing the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox. During an interview with journalist Sharyl Attkisson, Trump expressed a desire to personally visit the facility to ensure the gold is accounted for. While Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent maintains that annual internal audits confirm the reserves are intact, skepticism persists due to the lack of a public audit involving outside observers since 1974. Despite the renewed interest, there is no official timeline for an inspection, and legislative efforts, such as Representative Thomas Massie’s Gold Reserve Transparency Act, remain stalled.
