New Report Uncovers America’s “Forgotten Fortune” Hidden in Plain Sight

/EIN News/ -- Former Pentagon and White House Insider, Jim Rickards Releases Urgent Briefing on Supreme Court Ruling That May Unseal Generational Wealth Hidden Beneath U.S. Soil

BALTIMORE, April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- For more than a century, it sat untouched—protected by law, buried beneath miles of American land, and locked behind layers of red tape. But now, according to national security expert Jim Rickards, a major legal turning point could bring it all into the light.

Rickards, a former advisor to the U.S. Treasury and CIA, has just released a new report—The American Birthright—that reveals the untold story of how a massive federal reserve of natural wealth has been shielded from public access since the post-Civil War era… and how a Supreme Court decision may have just changed everything.

“It’s been this big secret for years,” Rickards says in the interview accompanying the report. “Yet over time, the estimated size of this fund has grown and grown… to the point where its raw value sits near $150 trillion and counting.”

A Legal Dam Breaks

Rickards says the Supreme Court’s reversal of the Chevron Doctrine in 2024—once seen as a minor legal change—may have been the key that unlocked a federal reserve long kept out of public reach.

“For the first time in our lives, the government is set to unlock this massive asset,” he says.

“Now… for the first time in half a century — we can go get [these resources]!”

The Report: What’s Inside

Rickards’ new report, The American Birthright, offers a rare deep dive into this overlooked government-controlled reserve, detailing:

• The century-old congressional policy that quietly protected this resource from exploitation
  
• How Supreme Court action has reversed decades of federal obstruction
  
• What kinds of assets are involved—and why they matter in today’s geopolitical climate
  
• Why this reserve was never touched, taxed, or monetized for more than 160 years
  
• How its existence could change the course of U.S. policy in 2025 and beyond
  

“What I’m calling this ‘trust fund’ is not part of a government program or handout,” Rickards says. “But it is real. And for the first time in decades, it’s no longer out of reach.”

Full Access Through New Interview Experience

The report is now available to the public through an online presentation featuring Rickards’ full interview and exclusive analysis.

“They didn’t spend it. They didn’t raid it. They just left it alone,” he says. “And now the numbers are staggering.”

“This isn’t fiction. It’s federal law.”
