decently love each other; they always have, but women never quite understand
.”
But a more serious charge has emerged surrounding the club since the 1980s;
that of many Grove member’s predilections for prostitution, particular of an
excessively seedy kind. Sex workers—and it is worth noting, both female
and
male—have told allegations (perhaps graciously, perhaps fearfully, refusing to
name names in all but a few cases) of lavish S & M-themed gatherings in the
outer reaches of the camp that involved forced degradation, humiliation and
forced injury (according to one former escort, by a circle consisting of several
former Republican secretaries of state and defense) which left them scarred
permanently and afraid for their lives. The Grove, however, as a non-profit
private institution is outside the jurisdiction of state criminal investigation
presumably
because
of the very influence it wields.
Insinuations of sexual deviancy are one thing.
Evidence of the influence of
the Grove—particularly in nominally conservative, right-leaning Republican
circles, from whom the Grove draws its strongest constituency—is
apparent
throughout American history. In his memoirs, former President (and Freemason)
Herbert Hoover states that after then-President Calvin Coolidge’s announcement
that he would not run for a second term in 1927, “
a hundred men... editors,
publishers, public officials and others from all over the country who were at the
Grove, came to my camp demanding that I announce my candidacy
.” The
following summer, the Republican party unanimously supported Hoover’s bid
for presidency, a tenure which saw the development of the Council on Foreign
Relations directly under his oversight. And indeed, membership at the Grove
seems to have been a preliminary requisite for just about every Republican
president since the foundation of the clique since Hoover; most notably, the
candidacies of Nixon, Reagan and both George H.W. and George W. Bush are
alleged to have found their initial support within the clustered encampments of
Bohemian Grove, and more recently, California governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger’s entry into the fray of state politics was secured by a raucous
crowd of supporters from various encampments.
Nor is Bohemian Grove a strictly American phenomenon. In 1991, the Grove
elected as one of its keynote speakers former German Chancellor Helmut
Schmidt. Schmidt, a public and unapologetic member of the Council on Foreign
Relations, the Trilateral Commission and enthusiastic participant in the
Bilderberg conferences, sparked controversy in the 1960s and 70s when it was
revealed that he was a former member of the Nazi Hitler Youth party (and
interestingly enough, adding to the Luciferian
spectre of Bohemian Grove,
Schmidt’s wife’s nickname is “Loki; the same name as the mythological deity
equated to Satan in Germanic mythology.) What makes this association all the
more curious are reports in the 1970s that one regular Grove attendee was a
charming but unrepentant former Nazi who drove around in a jeep that had a
decal of Rommel’s campaign to Africa affixed to its bumper—a palm tree
surmounted by a swastika. Rumor has it that then-President Gerald Ford, in an
uncharacteristic move of common sense, forced the gentleman to remove the
offending bumper sticker.
Not surprisingly, wherever the threat of exclusivity and secrecy raises its
head, the last name Rockefeller appears; and Bohemian Grove is certainly no
exception. Since the 1920s, the Rockefeller family have been long-standing
contributors to the atmosphere of the Grove gatherings, and the names of both
directors and junior level members of Rockefeller-derived institutions and
foundations remain some of the Grove’s most cherished key players. Yet the
Rockefeller family isn’t the only family to come up in conjunction as a bridge
between Bohemian Grove and prominent families in the Illuminati. For many
years, John E. DuPont III was a regular attendee, and was even invited
after
his
1997 conviction of first degree murder; including up to and after his 2010 death
(an oversight or a deliberate example of Grove organizer’s morbid sense of
humor?)
The figure of Henry Kissinger is perhaps one of the most notorious and
venerable old guards of the Grove, and one which has been known to enjoy
certain “executive privileges” on the grounds, the details of which are best left to
the imagination of the reader. Nor has this connection been a relatively more
recent occurrence; as far back as 1905, Bohemian Grove’s
honorary president
was one Daniel Coit Gilman, both a Freemason and founder of the Russell Trust
Association, the official trustees of the Skull & Bones Society of Chapter Seven.
Gaylord Freeman, both the most prominent member of the Freeman bloodline of
the Illuminati explored in Chapter Three as well as alleged head of the Priory of
Sion, was a regular attendee starting in the late 30s. James Wolfensohn, former
president of the World Bank Group and close ally
of the Rothschild dynasty
(whom, when once asked about the downside of globalization, was quoted as
saying, “
With all the forces making our world smaller, it is time to change our
way of thinking, to realize we live in one world and not many different worlds
”)
is another figure who has been known to enjoy a certain carte blanche at the
tables of Bohemian Grove.
Stephen Bechtel, the octogenarian heir to the Bechtel Corporation (a civil
engineering firm specializing in nuclear power and having almost exclusive ties
to Rothschild funded projects and think tanks) is another grand old guard legacy
member—one who has been known to perform in
various skits organized by
Bohemian Grove officers in full drag, alongside such venerable figures of
republican politics as Caspar Weinberger and James Baker.
