"Sometime in the early 1830s, a Yale student named William H. Russell - the
future valedictorian of the class of 1833 - traveled to Germany to study for
a year. Russell came from an inordinately wealthy family that ran one of
America's most despicable business organizations of the nineteenth century;
Russell and Company, an opium empire...Russell rounded up a group of the
most promising students in his class...and out of vengeance constructed the
most powerful secret society the United States has ever known.
The men called their organization the Brotherhood of Death, or, more
informally, the Order of Skull and Bones. They adopted the numerological
symbol 322 because their group was the second chapter of the German
organization and founded in 1832. They worshipped the goddess Eulogia,
celebrated pirates, and plotted and underground conspiracy to dominate the
world.
Fast forward 170 years. Skull and Bones has curled its tentacles into every
corner or American society. This tiny club has set up networks that have
thrust three members into the most powerful political position in the
world...The secret society is now, as one historian admonishes, "'an
international mafia'...unregulated and all but unknown." In its quest to
create a New World Order that restricts individual freedoms and places
ultimate power solely in the hands of a small cult of wealthy, prominent
families, Skull and Bones has already succeeded in infiltrating nearly every
major research, policy, financial, media, and government institution in the
country. Skull and Bones, in fact, has been running the United States for
years...Skull and Bones has been dominated by about two dozen of the
country's most prominent families - Bush, Harriman, Lord, Phelps,
Rockefeller, Taft, and Whitney among them - who are encouraged by the
society to intermarry so that its power is consolidated. In fact, Skull and
Bones forces members to confess their entire sexual histories so that the
club, as a eugenics overlord, can determine whether a new Bondsman will be
fit to mingle with the bloodlines of the powerful Skull and Bones
dynasty...During initiation, which involves ritualistic psychological
conditioning, the juniors wrestle in mud and are physically beaten - this
stage of the ceremony represents their "death" to the world as they have
known it. They then lie naked in coffins, masturbate, and reveal to the
society their innermost sexual secrets...Though they must tithe their
estates to the society, each member is guaranteed financial security for
life; in this way, Bones can ensure that no member will feel the need to
sell the secrets of the society in order to make a living. And it works: no
one has ever publicly breathed a word about his Skull and Bones membership,
ever. Bonesmen are automatically offered jobs at the many investment banks
and law firms dominated by their secret society brothers. They are also
given exclusive access to the Skull and Bones island, a lush retreat built
for millionaires, with a lavish mansion and a bevy of women at the members'
disposal.
The influence of the cabal begins at Yale, where Skull and Bones has
appropriated university funds for its own use, leaving the school virtually
impoverished. Skull and Bones' corporate shell, the Russell Trust
Association, owns nearly all of the university's real estate, as well as
most of the land in Connecticut. Skull and Bones has controlled Yale's
faculty and campus publications so that students cannot speak openly about
it. "Year by year," the campus's only anti-society publication stated during
its brief tenure in 1873, "the deadly evil is growing."..The knights (as
student members are called) learn quickly that their allegiance to the
society must supersede all else: family, friends, country, God...
This purpose has driven Bonesmen to ascend to the top levels of so many
fields that, as one historian observes, "at any time The Order can call on
members in any area of American society to do what has to be done." Several
Bonesmen have been senators, congressmen, Supreme Court justices, and
Cabinet officials. There is a Bones cell in the CIA, which uses the society
as a recruiting ground because the members are so obviously adept at keeping
secrets. Society members dominate financial institutions such as J.P.
Morgan, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, and Brown Brothers Harriman, where at
one time more than a third of the partners were Bonesmen. Through these
companies, Skull and Bones provided financial backing to Adolf Hitler
because the society then followed a Nazi - and now follows a neo-Nazi -
doctrine. At least a dozen Bonesmen have been linked to the Federal Reserve,
including the first chairman of the New York Federal Reserve. Skull and
Bones members control the wealth of the Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Ford
families.
Skull and Bones has also taken steps to control the American media. Two of
its members founded the law firm that represents the New York Times. Plans
for both Time and Newsweek magazines were hatched in the Skull and Bones
tomb...
Under the society's direction, Bonesmen developed and dropped the nuclear
bomb and choreographed the Bay of Pigs invasion. Skull and Bones members had
ties to Watergate and the Kennedy assassination. They control the Council on
Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission [...33...] so that they can
push their own political agenda. Skull and Bones government officials have
used the number 322 as codes for highly classified diplomatic assignments.
The society discriminates against minorities and fought for slavery; indeed
eight out of twelve of Yale's residential colleges are named for slave
owners while none are named for abolitionists. The society encourages
misogyny: it did not admit women until the 1990s because members did not
believe women were capable of handling the Skull and Bones experience and
because they said they feared incidents of date rape. This society also
encourages grave robbing: deep within the bowels of the tomb are the stolen
skulls of Apache chief Geronimo, Pancho Villa, and former president Martin
Van Buren."

"Not even George W.'s baseball deal, perhaps the one mark in his career that
he is generally believed to have achieved on his own, without his father's
connections, is devoid of Skull and Bones ties. In 1989, Bill DeWitt, who
recruited George W. to purchase the Texas Rangers, lined up four Ohio
investors to help. One of them, Dudley S. Taft, the president of Taft
broadcasting, was the grandnephew of the other Skull and Bones U.S.
president and a member of the one family with more Bones members than the
Bushes...Other (non-Bones) Tafts have kept up Bush ties as well. Ohio
Governor Bob Taft was the chairman of George W.'s presidential campaign in
Ohio,where he went door to door for the candidate. In addition, George W.
appointed William Howard Taft IV as legal adviser to Secretary of State
Colin Powell."
