Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul - I visited Fort Knox today. The dollar has lost 97% of its purchasing power since the Fed opened in 1913. $100 then is worth just over $3,300 today. This is no accident. Congress spends without limit, while the Fed prints the difference.

Senator Rand Paul @SenRandPaul - In the weeks after the announcement of the Liberation Day tariffs, the dollar index, which tracks the value of the dollar against a basket of currencies, dropped drastically. It is now down almost 10%, its worst performance since 2017, which coincidentally was the same year Fort Knox received its last high-profile official visit to the vault. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czjg2rlyvyzo https://x.com/SenRandPaul/status/2086856637080391808
