House Republicans are drafting articles of impeachment against Democrat judges that have blocked various actions by the Trump administration, including those who have halted efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Probably not feasible … too bad!
I be been looking back and as far back as 13 yrs ago they couldn’t explain where 1.3 trillion went.
We need to know more about the 4.7 trillion and more departments to check. The Fed too they will refuse.
I guess they found 4 trillion disappeared of untraceable transactions.
The way I see it is Trump was allowed to win the election … he was installed.
And I think he is a good actor.
And even if that is not true, he wants to be the greatest President in the history of America – but he just says and does too many suspicious things to be ignored. (Trump coin, etc.)
But it won’t become blatantly evident until it’s too late … where once his dictatorial powers are firmly in place … like warp speed – he starts imposing electronic ID’s and trackable money to fix the manufactured collapse for his benefactors – the moneychangers – that are laying low on purpose right now. (because they have been exposed)
But don’t worry – they are the ultimate psychos – and they will be back to try to enslave you in their digital gulag.
Fortunately, I think Armstrong is right and they will ultimately fail – but not before the mark of the beast is allowed to run wild – even if only for a year – as per ancient prophesy.
There is simply not enough economic hydrocarbons in the world for the psychos to construct all the data centers they would need to maintain global centralized control. (and they may know this)
But they are a stubborn lot.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (SAND) on Tuesday reported fourth-quarter net income of $3.1 million.
The Vancouver, British Columbia-based company said it had profit of 1 cent per share.
The results fell short of Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of three analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 5 cents per share.
The provider of financing for gold mining companies posted revenue of $47.4 million in the period.
For the year, the company reported profit of $14.3 million, or 5 cents per share. Revenue was reported as $176.3 million.

Weeks after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell evaded a sitting congressman’s questions about the central bank’s foreign gold holdings, the Fed has also declined to comply with a Freedom of Information Act request for records about such holdings.
The Federal Reserve’s lack of transparency comes amidst reports that countries are removing their gold and other assets from the U.S. in the wake of the unprecedented Western sanctions imposed on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine. According to a 2023 Invesco survey, a “substantial percentage” of central banks expressed concern about how the U.S. and its allies froze nearly half of Russia’s $650 billion gold and forex reserves.
Rep. Alex Mooney, R-W.Va., asked Powell about the matter in a December letter, only to have the Fed chair respond last month with evasive non-answers, telling him that the Federal Reserve does not own gold but holds it as a custodian for other entities—a fact that the congressman presumably already knew.
Following Powell’s evasive response, Headline USA filed a FOIA request with the Fed for records reflecting how much gold the Federal Reserve Bank of New York currently holds in its vault, as well as records reflecting the ownership stake that each of FRBNY’s central bank/government clients have in that gold. The FOIA request also sought records about the Fed’s gold holdings prior to Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
However, the Federal Reserve denied the FOIA request.
“Board staff consulted with staff at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (‘Reserve Bank’) and have been advised that such records, if they exist, would be Reserve Bank records, and consequently, not subject to the Board’s Rules Regarding Availability of Information,” the Fed said.
The Federal Reserve said that this publication could take its request to the New York Fed. However, that institution isn’t subject to FOIA.
Headline USA is working on an appeal.
Meanwhile, sound-money advocates are blasting the Fed’s lack of transparency.
“They’re just passing the buck to the New York Fed. The FRB could obtain the data from the New York Fed if it wanted to, and then could share it with you if it wanted to. The Fed chairman has already essentially told Representative Mooney that the Fed doesn’t want to disclose the information,” said Chris Powell, secretary-treasurer of the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee.
“If only other news organizations dared to ask such relevant questions about the secret operations of the Federal Reserve System,” he said.
Stefan Gleason, CEO of Money Metals Exchange, a large online precious metals dealer and depository based in Idaho, expressed similar sentiments.
“The Fed doesn’t want anyone to know that foreign governments and other central banks are yanking their gold from America’s shores because it would reveal the folly of U.S. monetary and foreign policy,” he said.
If this doesn’t make your blood boil, nothing will.
Thank God for Elon Musk and DOGE!
Well … I hope they take it to heart!

Not getting pounded yet in the premarket, but has only traded 100 shares, I’d think those numbers would be worthy of a 10+% smash, but hopefully not for anyone holding it.
I know it’s early, but it is so refreshing to see strength most days in the metals. What a shift from a year ago.
Knocking on wood this am.
We have silver sitting at the uber dangerous $33 level that they’ve been fighting for months. Gold bumping $2950
Interesting that the metals rallied yesterday with the dollar and rates higher. Looks like more of the same today early on.
Oil up near 1%. Bitcoin flat. SM flat. Bitcoin hasn’t moved much lately, seems to be stuck in the $95 – 100K range.
Looking for better action in the shares today, as long as the metals don’t tank. But we’ll see how that goes and what the Crimex has to say about $33 silver.
Maddog – agree with you on the shares. They’ll garner some serious interest eventually IMHO
Note how the 50 Av has come down to sniff the 200 day Av….if we move away, then that will also be a strong buy signal
Morning
Re Whistle blower…soon they won’t be able to handle all the whistle blowers….
would I be correct in saying that names are not being mentioned yet, because Patel has yet to be confirmed in the FBI, who would have to do the arresting….
Yes, no doubt it would be deflationary. Trump & Co. will have to grow the economy, bringing manufacturing jobs back here, reduce regulations so that drillers and farmers are cut loose to produce as much as they want. He’ll have to cut/eliminate taxes in a big way, and rates will have to come back to 0% I’m sure his plan is to grow us out of that.
All the cutting won’t happen at once, but if they can cut a couple trillion from the budget, and it appears they can, he will have room for a stimulus program if needed.
The amount of fraud in social security here is just insane. They have a whistleblower who came out and said they were giving illegal immigrants social security disability payments for life. Those rotten pieces of garbage deny disability to American citizens all the time and make it impossible for people that need it to get it. I know several people who’ve applied and been denied. They actually needed it. Now we find out they just give it to illegals whether they are unable to work or not? Hanging is not good enough for those people running SSA.
Agree 100 % about Trump and Musk…regarding deflation risk…the debt problem remains, Bessant has said they will monetise assets….Shectman noted Gold has been on a tear since November, ie as soon as Trump was the winner…..it is now seriously out performing all other PM’s , which as Shectman says points to insider front running.
He also mentioned that total liabilities could be as much as $ 200 Trillion……revaluing Gold at a price that compares to just the official debt, is many multiples up.
Interestingly the Adens have been saying for a long time that they see Gold peaking in 2026/7….after a huge run…..they have been saying that for a few years.
Re Vol
From what I see Vol still makes sense…where there is a huge diff, is the amount of trading that is Algo’ driven, like well over 70 %…I was only half joking when I said Algo’s can’t read, most can’t and even then how do they seriously weight ‘news’…which explains why so far we see no sign of panic in the PM share shorts.
All they see is a rally to sell into and every time since 2012 that has worked…..
Then we may have spread funds, that are long metal short shares, who are making out like bandits…..well not so much since 2016, but even there by staying long metal short shares prices are at all time lows , so no need to worry, just keep adding on all rallies.
One small silver stock I have was down near 10 % yesterday, on no news….
What they shorts do above 172 in the XAU and 375 Hui…could be interesting….
The other huge problem the shorts have, is have they delivered all the stock they are short ….I listened to Musk on shorters, he hates them, because of the amount of attacks on Tesla, where lie after lie has been spread and the SEC did nothing, despite him complaining to them……sorting the SEC out is personal, which is why the SEC enquiry is already criminal.
I don’t know all Trump’s doing but he’s always doing something. He has business plans lined up. It’s nice to know that I don’t have to think about it or in the demos case worry about it. That there’s someone there that knows what their doing and it’s not a nefarious agenda dreamed up by some bored psycho elitist who has no life.
He has countries that are willing to invest billions in this country in manufacturing and the pay off is no tarriffs and lower tarriffs for purchases. He plans on bringing some of our manufacturing back and pharmaceutical companies back. We can’t expect it all to happen over night but there is a plan for the future.
Getting a bit concerned about the impact of Musk and Co. being so successful. Suppose they do manage to slice $2tn p.a. off government spending? It doesn’t really matter if it is fraudulent SS payments, corrupt treasury payments, overpaying of contracts for military and other procurements or the abolition of whole departments; it’s taking $2tn out of the economy.
I’m not suggesting they don’t do it – but there doesn’t seem to be a plan to soften the impact.
If Kamala had won the deep state would have strengthened its control of society and the descent into communism would be guaranteed. The blob would have found more ways and means to oppose the opposition, and with J6 then entrenched as a precedent jailings of any opponents would become normal and any publicity suppressed. Nobody would know what was happening.
Where is the evidence for Trusk wanting to do what Chris Hedges suggests? All I see so far is two guys doing their best for America and its people and having an absolutely disgraceful amount of fun at the same time! Musk in particular. I can’t see any hint of him wanting to control people, or having a lust for power or riches. All Musk’s actions to date are the opposite. Fighting to keep OpenAI free, Grok, making Starlink free in disaster areas, removing censorship from X, getting rid of government departments, exposing barn door sized deficiencies in SS and Treasury procedures; HOW were these never addressed before? The incompetency and corruption is unbelievable.
I just can’t see how all this stuff is remotely comparable to the rise of Hitler or Stalin. Mump did not seize power, as Hedges suggests, they were elected in fair and free elections. The only thing that Trusk are doing to combat the opposition is to cut off their illegal funding. The opposition can still freely post on X and Truth Social, as well as their own echo chamber Bluesky. Free speech is much freer than it was under the deep state (and Nazi Germany and the USSR, ever). Hedges statement that “Compromise, limited power, checks and balances and accountability are slated to be abolished” is simply bullshit. The opposite is happening – not slated to happen, but done and dusted. Every Treasury payment now has to have its accountability code. Checks and balances will soon be in place to make sure that SS numbers are updated with date of death. He also whinges that “This order removed employment protections from career government bureaucrats.” What’s the issue? Why should they have employment protection when their incompetence and corruption has become crystal clear?
ALL Mumps’ actions to date indicate the opposite to what Hedges says. And Trump’s insistence that the war in Ukraine will end could only be disparaged by psychopaths. Of course the Europeans and that revolting little grot have been left out of the negotiations – they’ve insisted from the start that they will never negotiate with Putin; why would you invite them to the table?
Yeah a lot of the silver miners are barely making it. If recent trends continue they will be in better shape soon! The riggers should have allowed the silver miners a better margin and they’d have more supply.
I’m looking forward to the coming fracas. I hear the LBMA deliveries now take 8 weeks. Sound rather defaultish to me!
Cheers
