Episode 80: Skull and Bones — The Secret Society That Runs America

Every spring, fifteen junior students at Yale University are "tapped" — chosen — for membership in a secret society whose formal name is the Order of Skull and Bones, founded in 1832. The society meets in a building on Yale's campus known as "the Tomb." Its membership rituals, which have been partially disclosed by former members, involve confession of sexual history, lying in a coffin, and initiation ceremonies designed to create bonds of loyalty intended to last a lifetime. The society's alumni network is among the most extraordinary concentration of elite power in American history. The list of Bonesmen includes: William Howard Taft, the only man to serve as both President and Chief Justice of the United States; George H.W. Bush and his son George W. Bush; John Kerry, who ran against George W. Bush in 2004 in an election between two Bonesmen; Supreme Court justices; CIA directors; Secretaries of State; the founders of Time magazine and the Washington Post; and a remarkable proportion of the senior figures in American foreign policy, intelligence, and finance across nearly two centuries.

In this episode of The Conspiracy Theory Analyst, we examine Skull and Bones — what is actually known about its practices, the documented concentration of its alumni in positions of political and intelligence power, and the question of whether the existence of such a society constitutes a conspiracy or simply a very successful old boys' network operating at an extraordinary level.

The documented facts about Skull and Bones are strange enough without embellishment. The society has a documented obsession with death imagery — skulls, bones, coffins, the number 322 (believed to refer to the year 322 BC, the death of Demosthenes, and theorised to connect the society to the Illuminati's founding lineage). It maintains a collection of notable skulls, allegedly including those of Geronimo, the Apache leader, and Pancho Villa, the Mexican revolutionary — claims that have generated legal challenges and formal requests from descendant communities. A group of Bonesmen allegedly broke into Geronimo's grave at Fort Sill in 1918; one account identifies the perpetrators as Prescott Bush, grandfather of one US president and father of another.

The political concentration is documented and significant. When George W. Bush and John Kerry faced each other in 2004, both men were asked about their Skull and Bones membership in separate interviews. Both declined to discuss it in any detail. "It's so secret I can't talk about it," said Kerry. "It's a secret," said Bush. Two candidates for the most powerful office in the world, declining to discuss a student society they both belonged to, in an election that would determine the direction of American foreign policy for the next four years. The press, by and large, moved on.
