Loading ...It departs from Union Station in downtown. Winter Park is doing a huge development expansion soon, the City of Denver owns Winter Park. They’re sending a new gondola down to Frasier. I-70 is a mess. The two tunnel bores are leaking at the divide and are icier than ever this year. They’re also working on a huge construction project straitening out the bends down in Clear Creek. This is gold country. One of the biggest gold miners in CO looks like a gravel pit at the bottom of Floyd Hill and call themselves a “gravel pit” and they smartly sell the overburden (sand, gravel, road base etc) and keep the glitter. The highway traffic is so bad that I elected to not get a pass for the first time in 25 years living here, but the train is excellent. We just brokered a new deal with BNSF for track rights.
Before Silver explodes upwards…
I ordered a few 2025 silver eagles on eBay today for upcoming graduation gifts. About $41 ea. including shipping is the going price there. I’m guessing they will be much higher come graduation time in a few months.
my personal experience living next to shady people
is that bullets fly and they don’t care. So even if I wanted to protect myself, random bullets are a threat and not worth it. If I was Jewish, I’d move the hell out of that crap. Too many religious morons, stuck in legalism. It’s never changing. Let’s hope they all kill each other.
Exactly!
but if, like the Israelis, you don’t want to move, then you build a seriously fortified fence to keep them out. Or in. No pretence at being friends or reconciliation. No trading or supplying food, water or energy. Now that’s an area the Don has expertise in.
I think of Gaza as a giant terrorist network
It’s like having a 10-generation deep gang family living next door. It can’t be fixed. No one wants these people. It’s the pox. The only thing you can do is move.
yeah, but the trouble with street fighters is that they don’t care if they upset people.
He has totally messed up Gaza with his ethnic cleansing demands. His ignorance of tribal characteristics has lost him all respect. These people have lived there for 6,000 years or more, and they are not leaving. He’s shot his mouth off and he will never retrieve the situation.
With Ft Knox, if Elon finds it is empty he will want to refill it. Secretly, so no-one knows that it was never there. Gold is probably the only asset you could manage the secrecy ‘cos there is so much sleight of hand going on already. This would obviously keep pushing gold up to ATHs – wait …. what?
No don’t misunderstand Donnie
He says alot of things. He likes to catch people off guard, it’s called street fighting. People come at him with knives but he’ll just bust a gun on them. Don is not going to audit Ft. knox or do anything that jeopardizes the USD unless it’s a goner and can’t be saved in the next 3 years .The only way Ft knox is getting audited is if Elon goes in there and says yep this looks good and is legit and alot of bars are really there. Then Gold will fly. If it’s empty, no audit will be done and this crap gets swept under the rug is my guess.
Hi Goldie. Yahoo quote Trump as saying:
“There could be a problem – you’ve been reading about that, with Treasuries and that could be an interesting problem.”
He added: “It could be that a lot of those things don’t count. In other words, that some of that stuff that we’re finding is very fraudulent, therefore maybe we have less debt than we thought.”
If he means that some of the Treasuries have been fraudulently issued, and I have no idea how that could be, and he’s going to cancel them, as they “don’t count”, then the integrity of US treasuries is shot and they will be dumped if Trump starts cancelling; as who would know if their debt was next?
More likely he’s just another real estate agent who has no idea about accounting matters. He should leave these announcements to the DOGE team.

Excuse my ignorance on the complexity of the bond market other than a few things but how would…. Just the hint of that would crash the bond market.
I don’t know what he meant and guessing could be wrong.

Well just hope it is viral and not lymphoma. If so hopefully they can find out what kind of viral. I had a nurse friend many years ago who had it and presented itself more serious initially and with due diligence she survived and went onto lead healthy life. Only concern is you mentioning something about working with nuclear or something. Generally it can cause other symptoms along with it besides a lump.

There is NEVER less debt than you think, or hope. In the US’ case, there is also c. $200tn of unfunded medicare and pension debt. If Trump is thinking that some of the debt has been issued fraudulently and can thus be revoked then he needs to think again. Just the hint of that would crash the bond market.
What there clearly are is a lot of fraudulent payments. Can DOGE put a halt to enough of them to balance the budget so that a rise in the debt ceiling is unnecessary?
Too funny
I am not commenting on Chiefs or refs. Considering all the talk lately it’s just funny.
Guess we get $3K gold tomorrow if it keeps up
What a dream! Wish all past friends could see this!!!! My dad included
Hey deer79
That dustbin is full isn’t it? 🙂
Gold rockin’ again early tonight but silver still lagging. No complaints though, we’ve had a really good run and could be on the verge of something explosive. I didn’t think I’d see it in my lifetime but seems there’s a chance.
I have a lump on my neck and had a biopsy a few weeks ago. Got a call from the Dr. who said it came back as Lymphoma. So, for a while there, I really didn’t think I’d see it. Fortunately, I had a PET Scan today and they found no cancer anywhere else on my body. They still have to do a core biopsy on my neck, but the chances increase that the initial biopsy misread the material and it’s just an infection. Even if it comes out as Lymphoma, it’s localized and much easier to treat.
It’s good to see gold finally get going, silver on deck?
London is going to have a rough start.
This is interesting. Cliff Hi
Possible financial chaos resulting from the corruption being discovered by Trump team can lead to court problems, Judges and clerks with nothing to do for fraudulent contracts involving contractors and proof. Clinton’s hired a lot of contractors. Thousands of them. Deep state is in deep sheet.
I got it via email so don’t know if it will go through
It’s in audio to be continued.

Seems like he’s reaching a bit, but who knows…..could happen.
BTW
I continued to watch the interview with this Kirk Elliot. He likes silver even more than gold, he’s predicting a ratio of 40-1 by year end. We’ve heard a lot of predictions, I don’t know if he’s another dustbin dweller, but these guys are thinking that Trump & Co. will be backing the dollar with some amount of gold and what’s happening is that the gold from London is being repatriated. They will also create this new US sovereign wealth fund and eliminate the debt somehow. They have two years to do all this, or the debt implodes, and we’re finished.
Who knows?
If Doge going into Education and military next
I wonder somewhere between all the gov contractors the lefties created if they’ll find out how much money they spent on Chem trails and Harrp. It would be good if the other Western country’s could do the same.
Re Gold Up About $9 More In The Aftermarket
This is smelling like a melt up to me ever since late December at $2600. Now its pushing up against $3,000. I doubt we will ever see $2600 or $2800 again.
Doge spray
Kills on contact.
Lots of gyrations
Never know. Alex Jones interviews Kirk Elliot on gold.
This is going to get complicated and probably with concerns of safeguards to digital money printing.
DOGE-Backed Halt at CFPB Comes Amid Musk’s Plans for ‘X’ Digital Wallet
Government-efficiency team’s initial ‘read-only’ access expanded quickly to encompass closely guarded data, internal emails say.
director of the financial-enforcement agency.
Vought is an architect of the Heritage Foundation’s influential and controversial government-overhaul plan called Project 2025, which appears to have guided DOGE’s attempts to dismantle portions of the federal bureaucracy. Earlier this month, the team played a key role in the administration’s effort to shut down the US Agency for International Development, another longstanding conservative bête noire.
Bloomberg News sought comment from Musk, Vought, the DOGE team members and the White House. None responded.
Project 2025 calls for abolishing the CFPB, which Congress created as a consumer watchdog in the wake of the financial crisis that precipitated the Great Recession. On Saturday night, Vought sent an email instructing its employees to stop “all supervision and examination activity” and “all stakeholder engagement,” and he announced that he would decline additional funding for the bureau, saying its current account balance of $711.6 million is “excessive.” Those steps came one day after Musk posted the message “CFPB RIP” next to a tombstone emoji on his personal X account.
The CFPB is mandated to perform direct supervision on large banks and other companies it oversees. Supervision in the financial regulatory world means that examiners look under the hood at a company’s operations.
CFPB examiners have access to banks with $10 billion or more in assets, but they also oversee debt collectors, payday and other online lenders, consumer credit reporting companies, some fintechs and payments processors, and a host of other companies that banking regulators don’t monitor. The agency’s former director told a congressional panel last year that it had returned $20.7 billion to consumers since its inception.
The confidential supervisory information CFPB examiners collect is stored on agency laptops and in its internal Supervision Examination System, a Salesforce platform. That data — including customer information and complaints; new products under development but not yet released to the public; and financial information — is valuable and closely guarded, the five people said.
While there’s no evidence that DOGE staffers have begun studying any of the examination and enforcement records, employees of the financial-oversight agency questioned the appropriateness of giving the government-efficiency initiative the ability to access those records.
Just nine days before his DOGE team visited CFPB, Musk’s X — the former Twitter — announced that it had struck a deal with Visa to process peer-to-peer payments. Musk has publicly mused about expanding into payment-services since he first took control of X in 2022. Entering that business could bring CFPB oversight under rules the agency finalized in November. The records DOGE can now access would include sensitive and potentially competitive information.
A few hours later, CFPB’s X account was deleted, and the home page of the agency’s website was partially dismantled. Visitors to the website now see a “404 page not found” message when visiting the home page, although links to most pages are still accessible.
CFPB employees who read the memorandum of understanding started backchannel discussions about it and raised red flags, according to the five people familiar with the matter. They asked why DOGE would need to access the human resources, finance and procurement data if its goal was to modernize the agency’s software, the people said.
One employee sent an email to CFPB Chief Operating Officer Adam Martinez and his aides, asking them to “pause and ensure that the systems that are being provided” to the DOGE team “are consistent with the law.” The email expressed concern about potential “actions that may accidentally lead to data breaches, unintended access and other risks to the American public.”
It’s unclear whether the employee received a response. Martinez didn’t respond to a request for comment Sunday.
The DOGE team were given “senior advisor” titles at the agency and worked from a conference room in the basement of CFPB’s headquarters. The CFPB’s union attempted to greet them at the door, but the DOGE teams were standoffish and didn’t talk to anyone, according to multiple people familiar with the matter. The DOGE employees largely stayed in the basement; one was spotted emerging to pick up a Chipotle order for lunch in the CFPB lobby.
By Saturday afternoon, according to five people familiar with the matter, the DOGE team’s administrative access had expanded, giving users the ability to choose which of the agency’s internal systems they can explore.
That night, Vought began to lay the groundwork for overhauling and at least temporarily shutting down the CFPB. He sent an email to all the agency’s employees under the subject line, “Directives on Bureau Activities,” which prohibited them from issuing any public communications, continuing pending investigations or launching new probes. It also ended all supervision and examinations.
On Sunday afternoon, Martinez, the chief operating officer, sent an email to CFPB staff informing them that the agency’s headquarters will be closed this week and they should work remotely. Employees who were in the office were ordered to vacate the building by the agency’s director of security
Just the next step in China acquiring gold.
First they encourage private citizens to buy gold with the creation of the SGE in 2002, and SGEI in 2014. The article below says all gold purchases are registered, so Xi knows where it is.
https://goldbroker.com/news/china-owns-lot-more-gold-than-its-letting-on-2281
Now they are allowing (I’m sure that the insurance companies understand the subtlety – and if they don’t they will be reminded – of what “allowing” means in this context) to exchange billions of USD for gold, more gold, for China.
Ron Paul knows all this. Let’s guess that China has 20,000 tons; govt, army, personal holdings, it’s all the same to the CCP. Should China use the gold holdings to support its currency and anti-American strategy, how is Trump to maintain integrity for the USD? 8,144 tons isn’t going to cop it.
Ron Paul knows something else too, that if you can’t put your hand on it, you don’t own it. Only answer for Big D is to buy more for the US of A, and get back everything that the damn fools before them had leased or lent out.
