(Red State)—July 4th was a true study in contrasts.
You had Americans celebrating the holiday across the country.
President Donald Trump signed the “One Big Beautiful Bill” and saluted the military in an amazing event on the South Lawn at the White House. It was quite something, and it looked to me like the First Lady was visibly moved.

If you think about what the president and Melania have been through–to be able to stand there together and hold such an event–it’s easy to see why she might be so affected.
Meanwhile, what was the left doing? There were supposed to be protests across the country as they tried to replay their “No Kings 2.0” effort. How did those go? Well, it didn’t look like many turned out, if Los Angeles is an example. And they probably had more than other places. Compared to prior weeks, there were fewer turning out, in my opinion. Fox 11 also noted the crowd was smaller than they had seen in the past.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
