Quoting Senator Rand Paul's account of being refused entry to Fort Knox, he asked who is confirming the gold wasn't stolen, saying the gold belongs to the American public and it should be checked.
"Who is confirming that gold wasn’t stolen from Fort Knox? Maybe it’s there, maybe it’s not. That gold is owned by the American public! We want to know if it’s still there."
