Texans Push to Repatriate Texan Gold From Federal Reserve

“Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value —- zero.” —Voltaire Texas patriots, lawmakers, and supporters of gold in Texas are unifying to repatriate gold from the US central bank, the federal reserve.  With support of Texas Governor Rick Perry, the home of the Defender of Sound Money-Dr. Ron Paul- seeks to repatriate all Texan gold from the federal reserve & lawfully protect gold in Texas from seizure and illegal taxing.  As Jim Rickards points out on “Squawk Box”, Texas HB 3505 [Legislation] to repatriate gold would also establish the only sovereign bullion depository of a state within the United States, and if passed, will likely motivate other states to follow in the same footsteps. As explained by Jim Rickards in the must watch clip, there are private and federal bullion depositories, but a sovereign state bullion depository is a meaningful statement, a statement to an obese government that the states and the free citizens living within the states are taking notice of the currency crisis that is being perpetuated by the federal reserve’s fiat dollar, artificial interest rate scheme, and trillion-dollar deficits. “When the federal government spends more each year than it collects in tax revenues, it has three choices: It [...]

2013 Audit The Federal Reserve Bill Introduced by Rand Paul

“With our nation now over $16.4 TRILLION in debt, it’s never been more important the Federal Reserve’s abuses are exposed to the American people once and for all.” -Senator Rand Paul, via Campaign for Liberty The Audit The Federal Reserve Bill is back in Congress, through none other than former Representative Ron Paul’s son, Senator Rand Paul. Formally S. 202 in the Senate, Senator Rand Paul’s S. 209 Audit The Federal Reserve Bill will likely see massive support within the house where it currently has 100+ co-sponsors, and face its real battle with Harry Reid and the Senate, where current co-sponsors number at 19. Last year, Rep. Ron Paul, author of bestseller and informative “End The Fed“,  managed to finally pass the Audit The Fed bill in the house by a vote of 327-98, only to be denied a discussion, a vote, or even a mention in the senate by tyrant-in-chief of the senate, Harry Reid. Harry Reid exercised “his power” to block legislation from any discussion or vote on the Senate floor with just his word necessary. Harry Reid’s vague explanation for delaying audit the fed was that he’d have to talk to fed chairman and chief printer, Ben Bernanke, before [...]

The Federal Reserve & Congress May be Preparing a NEW Bailout

Section 13-3 of the Federal Reserve Act delivers the Authority to the Federal Reserve to use taxpayer’s salaries to bailout private companies and governmental organizations who the Independent-From-Government Federal Reserve deems necessary and “too big to fail”, but it must have 5 of its board of governors approve any action of this caliber.  The language within the Federal Reserve Act is much more eloquent and deceiving, but that is not the point here. The point is that recently released information is hinting that a new bailout may be in the works, although the 5 members requirement for a bailout may face some trouble, along with some problems in the Senate. “In March, the Senate Banking Committee voted out President Obama’s latest nominations to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Jeremy Stein and Jerome Powell” [Source] Currently, this leaves 2 of the  positions on the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve  awaiting affirmed nominees, while another position, held by Elizabeth A. Duke, has already expired on January 31st, although she still holds the position. Why she is still illegally holding the position is beyond me, possible awaiting the 2 vacant positions to get  filled so that they may pass a bailout without [...]

Review of the Abolish or Reform the Federal Reserve Hearing

On Tuesday, May 8th, 2012, Presidential Candidate and Congressman Ron Paul, Chairman of the Financial Services Committee on Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology, along with 11 other members of the committee, discussed legislation dealing with the Unconstitutional Federal Reserve System.   I covered the hearing as best as I could, it was moving rather quickly, and many voices were speaking once after another while also being long (my list of excuses), that said, I think I did cover the general experience and discussion within the hearing well. First is opening statements, followed by discussion on legislation, followed by discussion by ranking economists. Full Video of May 8th Hearing on the Federal Reserve (C-SPAN) Opening Statements Of Interest: Fed has been around for 100 years, has generally gone under the radar. We need to remember what Constitutional money is and decide how we deal with that the related facts. Supply and demand is only half of all transactions, the other half is the monetary issue. We need to be able to define the dollar, there is no legal definition of the Federal Reserve note, even though it is a pledge to pay something. The general attitude is that if something doesn’t work out with the Federal [...]
