Grand theft bullion

 

Trump and Musk are apparently going to the United States Bullion Depository ("Fort Knox") to see if the gold is still there. LOL. Of course it is, but it´s apparently an old conspiracy theory that the gold is gone. Per Wikipedia: 

>>>For security reasons, visitors are not allowed inside the depository grounds. There have been only three reported occasions when guests outside the Treasury Department have made inspection tours of the vault. 

>>>The first was by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1943. A second inspection was made by members of the United States Congress and the news media on September 23, 1974, led by the Director of the United States Mint, Mary Brooks. The tour was in response to a conspiracy theory, circulated by Peter Beter that elites had secretly removed the gold in the depository and that the vaults were empty. 

>>>The third inspection tour was on August 21, 2017, when Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell visited with a small group of officials and staff, including Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin. According to a tweet by Mnuchin, and an internal email by Chief of the U.S. Mint Police Dennis O'Connor, he was the first Treasury Secretary to visit the depository since John Wesley Snyder in 1948.

In other words: Trump and Musk are going to Fort Knox as a nod to QAnon-style conspiracy theorists!
