Eighty feet below the streets of lower Manhattan, a Federal Reserve vault protected by armed guards contains about 6,200 tons of gold. Or doesn’t.

“It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.” –  Henry Ford

EDITOR’S  NOTE: The Federal Reserve is not a federal organization and they don’t have any reserves. In violation of the United States Constitution, they are the ones who print our money, instead of Congress who is mandated to do it. So what is the Federal Reserve and who runs it? The Federal Reserve is a cartel created by the Rothschilds and Bilderbergers that controls the creation, flow and value of American currency. The creation of the Fed was a bloodless coup that succeeded beyond the wildest expectations of the conspirators. 

The Fed tells visitors its basement vault holds the world’s biggest official gold stash and values it at $240 billion to $260 billion.

But “no one at all can be sure the gold is really there except Fed employees with access,” said Ronan Manly, a precious-metals analyst at gold dealer BullionStar in Singapore. If it is all there, he said, the central bank has “never in its history provided any proof.”

Mr. Manly is among gold aficionados who wonder if the bank is hiding something about what it’s hiding.

Other theorists suspect the gold beneath the New York Fed’s headquarters at 33 Liberty St. may be gold-plated fakes. Some conspiracy-minded investors think the Fed has been secretly leasing out the gold to manipulate prices.

“There has to have been a central bank spewing their gold into the market,” said John Embry, an investment strategist for Sprott Asset Management in Toronto until 2014 who once managed its gold fund.

“The gold price didn’t act right” during the time he was watching it and the likely explanation for the movement was Fed action, said Mr. Embry.

Fed officials have heard theories about their gold holdings for many years and don’t think much of them. After this article was published, a Fed spokeswoman said the Fed doesn’t own any of the gold housed at the New York Fed, which “does not use it in any way for any purposes including loaning or leasing it out.”

The Fed has been selective in giving details about the contents of the vault and in the past has said it can’t comment on individual customer accounts due to confidentiality agreements.

Former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan said in a July interview: “When you deposit your funds in a bank, should that bank make your account balances available to whomever asks?”

Seeking a better glimpse inside the vault and at Fed procedures and records, The Wall Street Journal filed Freedom-of-Information requests with the New York Fed. Among the Journal’s findings, from a heavily redacted tour-guide manual provided by the Fed: Tour guides are informed that “visitors are excitable” and should be asked to “please keep their voices down.”

Three Fed staffers must be present when gold is moved or a compartment opened, even to change a lightbulb, and no attempts have been made to break in, documents state.

New York Fed President William Dudley told a March gathering in Queens, N.Y., that the fictional raid by drilling through from a subway tunnel in the 1995 movie “Die Hard With a Vengeance” was far-fetched.

The Fed gives some information about the vault on a website and offers tours. A guide on one tour gave some details: Inside is enough oxygen for a person to survive 72 hours, should someone get trapped; custodians wear magnesium shoe covers to help prevent injuries, should they drop 27-pound bars; the Fed charges $1.75 a bar to move gold but nothing to store it; most of the gold is owned by foreign governments.

Along with the foreign gold, the Fed’s Manhattan vault holds about 5% of America’s roughly $11 billion in gold reserves and coin, valued at the statutory rate of $42.22 per fine troy ounce, according to the U.S. Mint. The U.S. government keeps the rest in Denver, Fort Knox, Ky., and West Point, N.Y.

Elaborate theories build on what the Fed doesn’t say about goings-on in its vault’s 122 compartments. It doesn’t report when bars enter or leave and doesn’t let in outsiders—other than auditors and account holders—to count the bars or review records.

Visitors on vault tours see only a display sample and can’t verify bars up close.

“All you see is the front row of gold bars,” said James Turk, co-founder of Goldmoney, a gold custodian. “There’s no way of knowing how deep the chamber is or how many rows there are.”

Mr. Turk, based in London, believes much of the gold has been “hypothecated,” or lent out to other parties, and then rehypothecated, or lent to multiple parties at once. In doing so, he says, “central banks actually own less gold than people believe.”

Some gold bugs—investors bullish on the yellow metal—think the Fed secretly lends it out to suppress prices, partly to protect the dollar’s value. In theory, the Fed can feed gold into the market through swaps with other countries.

James McShirley, who owns Sulphur Lumber in Sulphur Springs, Ind., and has traded gold, believes investment banks, probably as agents for the Fed, act to lower prices when gold futures gain 1%. “It’s totally logical that in addition to maintaining artificially low interest rates,” he said, “it would be imperative to keep gold suppressed as an inflationary barometer.”

Then there’s the purity question. Mr. Turk said there are “questions in gold circles as to what’s in an actual bar.” One theory, he said: They could be gold-plated tungsten, which would weigh almost the same.

“I think the gold they have there is real gold,” he said, “but until you do random sampling you don’t know for certain.”

In a 2012 audit of U.S. gold at the Fed’s vault, the U.S. Mint and the Treasury’s Office of Inspector General sent 367 samples to an independent lab for testing. All but three samples came back within 0.13% of the purity recorded by the government, within standard industry tolerance, according to the Mint and Treasury.

Since then, annual government audits of the Fed’s vault have inspected only the locks and joint seals on the compartments to check they haven’t been tampered with, a Mint spokesman said.

That isn’t enough, said Peter Boehringer, founder of the German Precious Metals Society. The problem, he said, is the “complete lack of a transparent, full, independent, external audit in the Fed´s vaults by a sworn-in auditor.”

New legislation, nicknamed the “Audit the Fed” bill, could allow the Government Accountability Office to audit the Fed’s vault, said a spokesman for the bill’s Senate sponsor, Rand Paul (R., Ky.). GAO lawyers wouldn’t speculate on the bill’s reach. Mr. Paul’s spokesman said the Senator has arranged a personal visit to Fort Knox this fall.

Former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, the senator’s father, has been outspoken about what he says is taxpayers’ need for more transparency about gold from the Fed. “Even if you could walk into that vault and see a lot of gold, you wouldn’t know…whether it’s been loaned out or sold,” he said. “They haven’t convinced me that we have total control of it.” source

Why Are So Many Things From The Barack Obama Netflix Civil War Movie ‘Leave The World Behind’ Suddenly Starting To Take Place? You Know Why.

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The ship that smashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore had an expert crew trained in obstacle avoidance, so what happened? Leave The World Behind.

Here are a few things for your consideration. On November 22nd, 2023, the official launch of the movie ‘Leave The World Behind’ that was produced and co-written by Barack and Michelle Obama happened. The first thing that happens in that movie is a blackout of mobile device service. Exactly 3 months to the day later, on February 22nd, 2024, for 13 hours America was in the grip of an unprecedented, and unexplained, disruption of mobile device service. The second thing to happen in the Obama movie was the shocking appearance of cargo ships that sailed off course, causing mayhem. Today in Baltimore, a foreign cargo shipped rammed into and wiped out the massive 1.6 mile long Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. That’s 2-for-2, coincidence? Let’s try one more.

“Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Daniel 12:10 (KJB)

Now think about this: The Daily Mail UK is reporting right now that “The cargo ship that smashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore overnight was piloted by a specialized crew trained to avoid obstacles at ports, it has emerged.” Not just any cargo ship, mind you, but one contain a crew who were experts in avoiding collisions. Yet, inexplicably, this seasoned and expert crew failed to pilot safely under the massive opening in the Baltimore bridge, instead veering at the last minute into one of the major pillars holding the whole thing up. Almost like…wait for it…a cyber attack took control of their instruments and forced the collision. Did I mention that cyber attack is one of the key features in Obama’s ‘Leave The World Behind’ movie? That’s 3-for-3.

LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND: The Francis Scott Key Bridge In Baltimore Destroyed In Stunning ‘Black Swan’ Civil War Event We Warned You Was Coming

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Rescuers scramble to save dozens including 20 construction workers after Baltimore’s colossal Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed when container ship crashed into it

Just 4 days ago, we did a Podcast warning you that a ‘Black Swan’ event was coming, and today it arrived with stunning speed and sickening clarity. For those of you who have watched the dystopian Obama movie ‘Leave The World Behind’ that features cargo ships landing on beaches all across America, you know exactly what you are witnessing right now. Civil war is coming, and not just the ‘Civil War’ movie on April 12th, but the real thing. This is why they intentionally destroyed the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, they sent you a message. Are you listening?

“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

Do you know who Francis Scott Key was? He was the man who wrote ‘The Star Spangled Banner’ while watching the bombardment of Fort McHenry in 1814, the song that is our National Anthem. The bridge that was taken down in the early morning hours today was a symbol of American independence, it was a direct link to our National Anthem, and it has now been destroyed in the first of many more such events to come. For the past 3 months we have been shouting from the housetops that civil war at the hands of our government is coming, and this is the opening salvo. Go back and listen to our ‘Black Swan’ Podcast from last Friday, and prepare yourselves.

The Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore Maryland destroyed in stunning harbinger of the coming civil war

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Rescue workers in Baltimore are working furiously in an attempt to save the lives of dozens of people who were plunged into the frigid waters of the Patapsco River when the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed after being hit by a container ship. Initial reports indicate that at least a dozen cars hit the 47 degree water in addition to a 20 or so construction workers who were working on the bridge at the time. The workers were pouring concrete on to the bridge at the time of crash.

At the first press conference around 6:30 am, Baltimore Fire Chief James Wallace could only confirm that two people were pulled from the water. One was unhurt, the other had to be rushed to a local hospital with ‘serious injuries.’

Wallace said that workers are looking for ‘upwards of seven’ people but that the number of missing could change as the collapse is a ‘very large incident.’ The chief called the efforts a ‘search and rescue’ operation.

At the same press conference, the White House ruled out terrorism as relating to the cause of the crash.  The rescue effort incorporates Coast Guard ships, local police boats, Baltimore’s Fire Department, volunteer fire departments from the surrounding areas as well as teams of divers as the desperate search for survivors goes on.

There appeared to be an explosion on the container ship as it collided with the bridge sending container and diesel flooding into the water. One of the vehicles that fell to the water was a tractor-trailer.

The ship involved is the 948 foot long Dali, a Singaporean-flagged container which could be seen on ship tracking websites positioned stationary under the bridge following the crash.

It left Baltimore’s Seagirt Marine Terminal at 12:24am, at 1:25am, is began to slow and diverted off of its course. The video shows lights going off on board just before the crash. The astonishing moment when the bridge, which sits 180 feet above the river, collapsed was caught on camera. Kevin Cartwright, director of communications for the Baltimore Fire Department, called the situation ‘a dire emergency.’  READ MORE

The Current Kate Middleton Photoshop Scandal Shows Royal Family Desperately Seeking To Keep Something Secret As Conspiracy Theories Explode Online

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Royal family has a Photoshop conspiracy theory scandal on their hands, and it would be so easy to squash the rumours, so why aren’t they doing that?

The Royal family in England is notoriously private, and this is by design. Queen Elizabeth once said “Never complain, never explain, and say as little as possible”, a mantra which worked wonderfully well for her for over 70 years. But we live in the instant information age, privacy is all but a relic of the past, and people are demanding to know what’s up with Princess Kate, and just exactly what the Palace is hiding.

If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:” James 2:8 (KJB)

The fascinating part to me is that how easily the Royal family could squash this thing simply by showing Kate on television, walking around and talking like any other healthy, strong woman her age could do. But they are doing everything but that, leading me to side with the conspiracy theory folks until this matter is resolved. The Palace is absolutely hiding something, the only question is what that something could be. As a Photoshop expert for the past 20 years, I have examined the evidence and find it to be highly edited. But let me give you an opinion I haven’t heard any place else. The weird thing is that it doesn’t look like an amateur like Kate did the editing, to me it looks like someone with a high level of Photoshop skills edited it to make it look intentionally edited badly. Hmm….

How Palace Royal Family handling of Kate Middleton photo crisis fueled yet more conspiracy theories

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: To celebrate Mother’s Day in the UK, Kensington Palace released a photograph of Kate Middleton and her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The portrait, taken by Prince William, featured the Princess of Wales sitting in a chair, with one arm wrapped around Charlotte and another around Louis. Behind Kate stands George, who holds his hands around Kate’s shoulders.

It was the first picture of Kate released by the Palace since her abdominal surgery in January, and instead of quieting the online speculation that has ignited around the Princess in recent weeks, it only added fuel to the fire.

princess-kate-middleton-photoshop-conspiracy-theory-royal-family-palace

Within hours, photo agencies recalled the photograph over concerns it was digitally altered, and stated that no replacement would be provided. (The Palace has not shared an un-edited version of the photo). “At closer inspection it appears that the source has manipulated the image,” the Associated Press said in its advisory, noting “AP does not use altered or digitally manipulated images.”

Then, this morning, Kensington Palace shared a personal apology from Kate Middleton, who wrote, “Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day.” She signed the note, “C,” short for Catherine.

The apology did not end the conspiracy theories around the image; it made them worse. Suddenly, everyone from TikTok accounts with no followers to publications like the New York Times were analyzing the edits Kate supposedly made to the photo—Princess Charlotte’s sleeve disappears, Prince Louis’s sweater pattern is odd, Kate’s hair and zipper are misaligned, and so on—leading to numerous questions about why Kate felt the need to alter the photograph.

Users on social media theorized about the Palace’s decision to release an edited photograph: Maybe they wanted a picture where all the kids were smiling. Maybe Kate, feeling anxious about her appearance post-surgery, wanted to make sure she looked perfect.

But conspiracy theories began to bloom. One TikTok posted by Allyn Aston, a singer and podcaster who usually posts about pop music, alleges that the photoshop was used to disguise the fact that it was actually an older photograph of the Princess and her children. Specifically, Aston points out, Kate, George, Charlotte, and Louis appear to be wearing very similar (if not the exact same) outfits as they wore to volunteer at a Baby Bank in Maidenhead, a town in Windsor, in November. Aston hypothesizes that the sweater Kate is wearing in the photograph is the same Reiss turtleneck Kate wore to that outing in November, just a photoshopped to be a different color. Princess Charlotte, too, seems to be wearing the exact same ruffled neckline as she did to that outing (a red Cyrillus cotton and cashmere sweater)—just with another sweater added via photoshop on top, perhaps explaining the weirdness around her wrist.

The Mother’s Day photo drama is the Streisand Effect, royal edition: The Palace, by trying to quiet online speculation around her health, has seemingly made things worse, and made people who were not paying attention to the British royals suddenly tune in.

Apart from Kate’s apology this morning, Kensington Palace has yet to publicly address the photoshop controversy. When speculation began bubbling up online regarding Kate’s health, the Palace seemingly responded to the rumors, with a spokesman saying “Kensington Palace made it clear in January the timelines of the Princess’ recovery and we’d only be providing significant updates. That guidance stands.” Last week, Prince William, too, seemingly responded to the online discourse, with a spokesperson saying, “his focus is on his work and not on social media.” However, the Palace has yet to explicitly respond to, or even acknowledge, the ongoing conspiracy theories online, and it’s unlikely they ever will.
