The biggest money interest in the world are doubling down on gold!
More central banks than ever expect to increase their gold reserves, a sign one of the key forces behind bullion’s record-breaking rally remains intact despite this year’s pullback bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Amen, @SenRandPaul !! It's nothing more than #MonetizationWithoutRepresentation many times worse than what triggered the tea party catalyst that gave birth to this nation!

Printing money to fund government spending is a choice. Inflation is the consequence of that choice.
When inflation erodes the value of your paycheck and savings, the government is taking purchasing power from you.
It's theft.

The world is moving on while the US merely straightens deck chairs to temporarily bolster increasingly withering demand for US Treasuries. #PrintSpendPretend is coming to an End! #GotGold
"China told Saudi Arabia: convert yuan to gold, keep it in your own vault, and repo against it." - @Sorenthek
That's how the BRICS are replacing the Treasury-backed system, gold vaults as infrastructure, Belt and Road as the engine. The new plumbing is being built.

A recent article, "Should We End the Fed? Can We?" notes, "A basket of goods that cost $100 in 1790 cost roughly $108 1913. In 2008, that same basket cost $2,422 – more than a 2100 percent increase. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that the Fed is not an inflation fighter, but an inflation creator."

Last night, I got a call from President Trump. During the call, I asked about how the Pentagon had reclassified my faith. He said he would look into it. This morning, he told me it had been fixed. Thank you, President Trump.
We can disagree on whether "Mormons are Christian." That's not what disturbed me about this. I don't want the GOVERNMENT classifying religions. That creates a dangerous tool that shouldn't be in the hands of ANY government.
I don't believe that was Hegseth's goal. But what happens if the power shifts and the "Jesus was nonbinary" camp takes over? Will they recategorize conservative Christians? The Biden administration already tried to link Catholicism to domestic terror.
If that possibility troubles you, then you understand my problem with this whole thing. I don't want the government to declare me a Christian. I want them to stay out of it.

#StructureOverPolitics Period! This is the way to restore a governing partnership that mutually serve the best interests of the people again!
Can a return to federalism fix our politics? | Rep. Ken Ivory & Rep. Jennifer Dailey-Provost
What if one of the biggest solutions to America’s political dysfunction isn’t electing better people, but restoring the principles of federalism?
In this episode of Defending Ideas, @nicdunnutah speaks with two Utah representatives, Rep. Jennifer Dailey-Provost and Rep. @KenIvoryUT, about the constitutional balance between state and federal power.
They discuss polarization, congressional dysfunction, the role of states as laboratories of democracy, and why shifting more decisions to local communities could improve both governance and civic trust.

What we are watching in markets are the first cracks in the illusion that the US can fund $2T deficits in perpetuity, fund debt-funded AI buildouts, reshore the industrial base, fund the Iran war, and roll over existing US Federal debt without YCC or its functional equivalent.

Haters can keep hating on gold all the way to the top as the number one world reserve asset, then as the number on reserve currency.

15 years ago: “You gold bugs are crazy.”
10 years ago: “Barbarous relic.”
5 years ago: “Gold doesn't yield anything.”
2026: Financial Times: "Gold replaces US Treasuries as world's top reserve asset."
Welcome to the party.
You're only about a decade late. 🍿🥇

Maybe it’s just a 26 year fluke…
Everyone talks about the S&P 500 mega rally.
But since 2000, gold has crushed it.
Gold: ~16.5x
S&P 500 total return: ~8.2x
Even with dividends included, gold has been the better investment.
Quiet. Hated. Underowned.
Still winning.

BREAKING: President Trump calls for a physical audit of Fort Knox's gold reserves.
The US reports holding 147.3 million troy ounces of gold at Fort Knox, worth $500 billion.
Yet, Fort Knox has not undergone an independent physical audit in over 70 years.

Working harder than ever and feel like you’re getting farther behind…??? Our money is being diluted out from under us faster than most can earn it… #MonetizationTax #InflationIsTheft #MonetizationWithoutRepresentation #DebtIsBondage
“Historically, middle-class wealth accumulation depended on disciplined saving, stable employment, affordable housing, and gradual investment appreciation over time. But inflationary monetary regimes destroy the reliability of all of those pathways. Savings become punishment, cash becomes a melting ice cube, young people are forced into speculative assets (or outright becoming gambling addicts) simply to attempt to preserve purchasing power. Conservative investing gets punished while reckless leverage gets rewarded.
Entire generations now feel compelled to try and make quick money in markets not because they are greedy, but because monetary debasement has made traditional financial prudence nonviable. This creates an economy built less on productivity and innovation and more on asset inflation, debt expansion and outright speculation.
And inflation itself is particularly nefarious because it operates invisibly. It steals purchasing power quietly, gradually, and often incomprehensibly. Most people do not connect central bank balance sheets to why they suddenly cannot afford the same standard of living they had five years earlier. They simply feel squeezed. They work harder, save less, delay families, postpone homeownership, drown in debt, and wonder why prosperity always seems permanently out of reach.
The theft of their purchasing power happens in the darkness. Unlike direct taxation, monetary debasement allows everyone involved to avoid accountability. Instead of openly taxing citizens to fund endless spending and bailouts, the system simply dilutes the value of everyone’s currency. And the people causing the inflation are usually insulated from its consequences because they own the very assets inflated by the policy itself.
That is why luxury demand continues exploding even while ordinary consumers struggle. The Wall Street Journal recently noted booming demand for Ferrari, Hermès, luxury Manhattan real estate, and private aviation among the ultrawealthy even as many middle-class consumers pull back spending elsewhere. That is not a healthy economy, that is a bifurcated economy.
And Modern Monetary Theory only pushes this logic to its most dangerous extreme. MMT advocates often speak in sanitized academic language about sovereign currency issuance and functional finance, but the real-world result is painfully simple: endless money creation distorts prices, rewards asset holders, punishes savers, and accelerates inequality. A society cannot print its way to genuine prosperity forever, it can only redistribute claims on existing prosperity while weakening the currency denominator underneath the entire system.
The defenders of perpetual intervention always insist the alternative would be catastrophic…markets would crash, unemployment would rise, and recession would follow. There is truth in that argument. The system has become so addicted to liquidity that withdrawal now threatens immense instability.
But that only exposes the deeper problem. A market that cannot survive without permanent monetary life support is no longer a healthy market, it is a managed dependency system. A patient on hospice care. And every bailout pushes the reckoning further into the future while making the eventual consequences even worse.
That is why so many people feel like the game is rigged even when official economic statistics appear healthy. GDP can rise. Stock indices can hit all-time highs. Unemployment can remain low. Yet millions of people still feel poorer because the underlying structure increasingly funnels gains upward while socializing losses downward.”

“Own assets or be left behind”! True that!!
Fiat currencies are in an eternal bear market against gold:
Since 1971, the US Dollar has lost -99.24% of its value against gold, the 2nd-largest decline among major currencies.
Over the same period, the British Pound has declined -99.57%.
The Euro would have lost -99.08% against gold if it had existed since 1971.
Furthermore, the Japanese Yen and Swiss Franc have dropped -98.27% and -96.07%, respectively.
Meanwhile, gold prices in US Dollar terms are up 11,119% over the same timeframe.
Own assets or be left behind.
