This Friday, Jean Luc and Peter Mingils talk about Zelensky visit. On February 28, 2025, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to the White House took a dramatic turn, unraveling into a heated confrontation with President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance. Intended to finalize a deal on Ukraine’s rare earth minerals—seen as a step toward post-war recovery and peace with Russia—the meeting instead devolved into chaos. Trump and Vance berated Zelensky, accusing him of ingratitude for U.S. support and disrespecting the Oval Office. Trump warned Zelensky was “gambling with World War III,” while Vance questioned if he’d ever thanked America. Zelensky, defiant, insisted he’d expressed gratitude repeatedly and sought security guarantees against Russian aggression, not just mineral deals. The clash ended abruptly with Trump ordering Zelensky to leave, canceling a planned press conference. Departing, Zelensky tweeted thanks to America, Trump, Congress, and the public, emphasizing Ukraine’s pursuit of “just and lasting peace.” The fallout stunned allies, with European leaders like France’s Macron and Poland’s Tusk rallying behind Ukraine, while Trump later called for a ceasefire. This explosive encounter has jeopardized U.S.-Ukraine relations and raised doubts about Trump’s push for a swift resolution to the war, leaving global diplomacy on edge as of March 1, 2025.

As of March 1, 2025, the question of whether gold remains in Fort Knox continues to spark debate, fueled by decades of speculation and limited transparency. The U.S. Bullion Depository in Kentucky, holding roughly 147 million ounces of gold—about 4,582 metric tons—last underwent a partial audit in 1953, with only small samples inspected since. Officially, the Treasury asserts the gold is secure, a claim backed by occasional VIP tours, like one in 1974. Yet, skeptics, from conspiracy theorists to fiscal hawks, argue there’s no hard proof. Some allege the gold was sold off to prop up the dollar or fund covert ops, pointing to the rise of digital currencies and declining gold-backed trust in fiat money. Calls for a full, public audit have grown louder, with figures like Senator Rand Paul pushing legislation in 2024 to verify the reserves. The Treasury resists, citing security and cost—estimated at $15 million for a comprehensive check. Meanwhile, X posts swirl with theories, some citing blurry 2023 drone footage allegedly showing empty vaults. Without concrete evidence either way, Fort Knox’s gold remains a Schrödinger’s vault: there until proven otherwise, a mystery enduring into 2025.
