Germany holds the world's second biggest national gold reserves after the US, of which approximately €164bn (£122bn) worth – 1,236 tonnes – is stored in New York. Emanuel Mönch, a leading economist and former head of research at Germany's federal bank, the Bundesbank, called for the gold to be brought home, saying it was too “risky” for it to be kept in the US under the current administration.  “In the interest of greater strategic independence from the US, the Bundesbank would therefore be well advised to consider repatriating the gold.” Source: zerohedge.com Trump Suggests He Can Send $2,000 Tariff Rebate Checks Without Congress  Bessent has also suggested the $2,000 benefit might not take the form of direct cash disbursements.  the Treasury secretary said while he had not yet finalized details with Trump, the “dividend could come in lots of forms,” such as through tax reductions already under consideration—including exemptions for tips, overtime pay, and Social Security benefits, among other deductions.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde pulls back the curtain on a fast-growing threat to U.S. remote hiring: applicants who claim they live in the United States, but are actually overseas, using semi-synthetic or fully legitimate personas complete with U.S. VOIP numbers, "real" apartment-complex addresses, credible degrees, and high-engagement LinkedIn profiles.Why are so many suspicious profiles tracing back to Nigeria, India, and Pakistan: is it simply population scale, or are there specific enablers that make these routes more common? What changes when the motive shifts from "get paid in dollars" to something darker—organized crime, state-sponsored access, or even sanctions-evasion tactics modeled after North Korea's fake IT worker playbook? And how might post-2024 policy shifts, including tighter visa and travel restrictions, be reshaping the incentives and tactics behind this trend?Bidemi explores what these schemes mean for insider risk, why traditional background checks can fail in a remote-first world, and what leadership teams should do now to harden hiring pipelines—before the next "perfect candidate" becomes the next breach.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comSupport the show

Full panic mode sets in for those who were exposed as part of my H-1B scam documentary. Texas congressional candidate and a leader in the fight against H-1B scams N. Lee Plumb joins the show to discuss how people can get involved and start their own local investigations. Democrats and mainstream media get caught in another lie, as they pushed the false narrative that an ICE agent kidnapped a 5-year-old child. Former special counsel for the DOJ Jack Smith testified in a House Judiciary Committee hearing about his shady investigation into Donald Trump.

President Donald Trump backs Anna Paulina Luna as she stands firm demanding action on the SAVE Act—and Joe Pags asks the question everyone's asking: why hasn't Trump endorsed anyone yet in the Texas GOP Senate race? Then it's rapid-fire headlines you won't hear framed this way: a contractor indicted on six counts for allegedly leaking classified information to The Washington Post; the House Oversight Committee expanding its probe into massive Minnesota fraud—with Pags revealing signs that California may be the next fraud bombshell; and Don Lemon making waves again by calling Nicki Minaj a racist—prompting Pags to say enough. Then the tone shifts for a rare, must-hear conversation as Joe Pags sits down with acclaimed actor Giancarlo Esposito. They dive into his life and legendary career, sharing heartfelt stories about their Italian fathers, family, faith, and the moments that shaped him as an artist and a man.

Trump Considers Naval Blockade to Halt Cuban Oil Imports & Left's ICE Detention of 5-Year-Old Narrative IMPLODES, As Extensive Fraud Exposed Nationwide

On this episode of the podcast, ER physician and healthcare entrepreneur Dr. Ron Elfenbein joins the show to tell a story few Americans have heard from the inside.During the height of COVID-19, Dr. Elfenbein helped source PPE, designed intubation boxes, and worked to distribute monoclonal antibody treatments when hospitals were overwhelmed and options were limited. But after publicly criticizing the Biden Administration's decision to halt monoclonal antibodies and questioning vaccine mandates, Dr. Elfenbein found himself under federal indictment for healthcare fraud — charges stemming from billing disputes he says were selectively and politically pursued.After a grueling trial, a District Court acquitted him due to insufficient evidence to support the jury's verdict. But despite that acquittal, the weaponized Department of Justice has appealed the case, forcing Dr. Elfenbein back into court this August.If you would like to follow Dr. Elfenbein on X you can do so by searching for his handle: @RonElfenbeinMD.

Send us a textIn publicly telling his story for the first time, former GOP candidate Paul Wikstrom spoke with Liz Collin on her podcast about how his challenge to election fraud ultimately helped shine a light on all the other kinds of fraud in Minnesota.Wikstrom explained how he was running against DFL opponent Curtis Johnson to represent District 40B in the Minnesota House. But something wasn't right. Johnson didn't actually live in the district, as required by state law. After investigating, Wikstrom challenged the election and Johnson was disqualified, which led to a special election. Wikstrom didn't win. But his investigation and challenge helped put a stop to the DFL and "their runaway spending,” he said. Wikstrom also explained how the focus on fraud at the legislature “all started with a challenge to election fraud.”Support the show

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Kaitlin Henze. A phone call that appeared to come from her bank's fraud department turned into a financial nightmare for Kaitlin. She shares how sophisticated scammers exploit fear and urgency to override your judgement. Kaitlin also demonstrates how bringing these stories into the open is one of the best ways we can protect ourselves and the people we love. Kaitlin lives just north of Milwaukee, WI, where she enjoys outdoor adventures with her pup Mia, practicing and teaching yoga, and volunteering for local nonprofits. She works for a business that teaches STEM and critical thinking skills to kids, inspiring the next generation with a love for data, graphing and lifelong learning. In May 2023, Kaitlin's life was turned upside down when she fell victim to an elaborate and devastating identity theft scam that stole her entire life savings in just three weeks. Now, she's courageously sharing her story to help others recognize, recover from, and most importantly, prevent similar cybercrimes. This episode is a powerful listen—and one worth sharing—to keep yourself and your loved ones safe. When Trust Is Weaponized Kaitlin's story is a stark reminder that financial threats don't always arrive as obvious red flags. Sophisticated scams are designed to mimic authority, create urgency, and exploit our instinct to act quickly—often when we're trying to do the “right” thing. By sharing her experience openly, she shows that anyone can be vulnerable, while giving listeners the tools to recognize warning signs, slow down in high-stress moments, and safeguard what matters most. If you're thinking about how to better protect yourself and the people you care about, an Aspiriant advisor can help you review safeguards, spot risks, and build resilience into your financial life.
