Trump doesn’t need Congress to leave NATO. Is this True?

President Trump said he is thinking about leaving NATO and he doesn’t need Congressional Approval to do it

 What’s interesting is that within the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, passed by Congress and signed into law by then President Biden, it expressly forbids the US President from unilaterally leaving NATO.

 Null and void I’m thinking…

WSJ: Wyoming’s Gold Hedge and the Return of State Bullion

 Wyoming acquired roughly 2,312 troy ounces of gold, valued near $10 million at the time of purchase, now estimated around $11.6 million as prices have risen. The bars are stored in a vault operated by the private firm Wyoming Reserve in Casper.

The facility itself reflects the seriousness with which the state approached custody.

According to Wyoming Reserve CEO Josh Phair, the vault structure is layered and heavily fortified.

“The vault is structured like an onion layer,” Phair said, describing a facility anchored to bedrock and designed for secure storage.

The gold purchase was mandated by the Wyoming Gold Act, legislation passed with strong support in the state legislature. The law requires Wyoming’s investment portfolio to include precious metals as a hedge against potential economic shocks.

Supporters of the policy frame it in explicitly macroeconomic terms. Senator Bob Ide, the bill’s lead sponsor, tied the legislation to concerns about federal fiscal stability.

“I can’t put a timeline on it, but there’s gonna be a sovereign-debt crisis,” Ide said. “There’s no will to rein in spending.”
