If so, much of his apparent recalcitrance would be explained. Federalist Society membership, of course, also makes him suspect.
Lots of talk about that on google search.

Go on and characterize it like that.
The first tenet an initiate to S&B must absorb is this:
"In chaos lies opportunity."
Go read the history of the elite and their designs.
ColinC
(8,279 posts)The elite are powered by their wealth and positions. The frats they join have little to do with where they are.

(13,565 posts)It's also said that DeSantis is S&B. Look at the chaos in Florida that he has created. He profits financially from Covid, as an investor in the special treatment.
Look at the damage the Bushes did to America. Ugh.

(8,279 posts)Just because the rich and powerful skew right wing and evil, doesn't make their dumb frat any more significant.
You can stop now. Or go read up.

Oh, to answer the OP: Yale secret society membership is reserved for members of the undergraduate college.

I wonder why he took a 10 year internship at the FBI ? How much money could he make this firm being at the FBI ?
Why do we have a FBI director worth 20 million dollars plus, does not seem to be a man in touch with regular people, seems to be a player among the rich and powerful ?

Indian Country Today, September 12, 2016 (originally June, 8, 2006)
Historian Marc Wortman has infused new energy into the controversy over whether President George W. Bushs grandfather, Prescott Bush along with some college chums from Yale stole Geronimos skull and femur bones in the early 1900s.
Wortman accidentally discovered a letter describing the grave robbery, written in 1918, in the Yale archives, while he was researching for a book about World War I aviators. The letter, written from one student to another, reports that The skull of the worthy Geronimo the Terrible [is] exhumed from its tomb at Fort Sill, and is now safe at their Yale clubhouse.

The Order of Skull and Bones, or The Order, is an ultra-secretive organization founded at Yale in 1832. The Orders co-founders were William Huntington Russell and Alphonso Taft. The Russell family fortune was gained in large part through illegal 19th-century opium smuggling in Turkey and China. Alfonso Taft, of Ohio, was the father of William Howard Taft, who also was a member of Skull and Bones, and the only man to become both president of the United States and chief justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. William Howard Taft was also a freemason, another secret society otherwise known as the Masons, an organization deeply implicated in the theft of Indian lands through the Society of the Cincinnati.
Skull and Bones families have been among the most powerful and influential banking and corporate interests in the world. Some key Bones family names are Root, Brown, Harriman, Rockefeller, Whitney, Davison, Bush, and Cheney (though Vice President Dick Cheney is not a member). The corporation Halliburton, and its subsidiary, Kellogg, Brown and Root, which have received tens of billions of dollars in military contracts in Iraq, are affiliated with Bones families, as is Exxon Oil (formerly Standard Oil of New Jersey).
Members of Skull and Bones are known as Bonesmen. Legend has it that Prescott Bush and several fellow Bonesmen dug up the grave of Geronimo in Fort Sill, Okla., where they were stationed as military officers during World War I. They are said to have taken Geronimos skull and femur bones back to The Tomb (the Skull and Bones headquarters) on the Yale campus. The recently located 1918 letter supports the story.

It felt very creepy to be there, knowing then much of what you reported above.
