It's infrastructure week, which means a lot of stuff is happening that has nothing to do with infrastructure.

Michael Avenati is probably going to prison, and Quentin Tarantino stands up for himself.

I'm Ben Shapiro. This is the Ben Shapiro Show.

Ah, the news cycle grows ever more ridiculous, and we'll get to all of it.

But first, in quarter one, gold purchases by central banks were the highest in six years. I'll bet you did not know that, considering how good the economy is. But in the face of the dollar's declining stature, what exactly are you doing to protect your savings? Become your own central bank, move some of your savings to gold. Can you afford another hit to your retirement like the last downturn when the S&P dropped 50%. Hedge against inflation, hedge against uncertainty and instability with

precious metals. Some of the economic indicators are looking a little volatile these days. Gold is a safe haven against uncertainty. My savings plan is diversified, and yours should be too. Doesn't mean take all your money and stick it under the mattress. It means you should have some money in precious metals. The company I trust with precious metal purchases is Birch Gold Group. Right now, thanks to a little-known IRS tax law, you can even move that IRA or eligible 401k into an IRA backed by physical gold and silver, which could be good for people who want to protect their hardened retirement savings from future geopolitical uncertainty. Look back historically, when the bottom falls out of everything else. Gold does tend to safeguard savings.

It has never been worth zero. Birch Gold Group are the folks I trust. They have thousands of satisfied customers, countless five-star reviews. Contact Birch Gold Group.

to my friends at Birch Club. All righty. So yesterday,

the big news, obviously, was that President Trump had a big blow up with Nancy Pelosi. This all,

this all sort of launched with Nancy Pelosi accusing President Trump of engaging in a cover-up preemptively.

Now, she's still not clear exactly what it is that Trump is covering up.

This is the part that nobody seems willing to discuss. What exactly is Trump covering up?

So Trump obviously doesn't want to cooperate with Congress because he's ticked off that they won't

leave him alone. Maybe he wants to cover up, presumably, his finances. Maybe he just doesn't want

them digging into his personal affairs.

But they've actually not accused him of any criminal activity.

They can't explain what it is he is trying to cover up at this point.

Like at least in Watergate, you knew what Nixon was trying to cover up.

He was trying to cover up whether or not he knew about the Watergate break-in.

That was the cover-up.
