Author’s Note: Some of this story you have probably heard it in part or maybe you have heard all of it. I am retelling a tale and adding my own research and details to it. This is for those newly awakened and for those who have been in the movement for a long time. God bless you all.
Mad Scientists and Robber Barons
Whether you are familiar with his inventions or not, you have heard the name Nikola Tesla. The name of the man brings up the wildest of imaginings regarding his inventions -- everything from flying machines to mad science electricity experiments to recordings of voices from beyond. What most people don't realize is that Tesla had three major financiers — JP Morgan, George Westinghouse, and John Jacob Astor IV.
Many are quite familiar with JP Morgan. There is a banking institution with that name on it after all. Westinghouse again might be a name many would be familiar with. He created the Westinghouse Electric Company. But not many people have heard of John Jacob Astor IV. Nor have they heard of his role and misfortune that helped shape the current situation of our country.
JP Morgan was a man obsessed... and a man of means who would stop at nothing to get what he set his sights on. His machinations to take control of the newly founded electric industry dates back to 1890's. His ambitions didn't end there. He actively engaged in corporate sabotage in order to collapse Westinghouse's stock prices. Westinghouse at this time was Nikola Tesla's financier. In order to continue pursuing his inventions and financing in the AC current, Nikola Tesla was forced to sell his patents to JP Morgan.
This bid to stay financially afloat worked as Tesla and Westinghouse won the contract to build the AC generating plant at Niagara Falls in 1895. It was shortly before the opening of the first hydro-electric power plant at Niagara Falls that the building where Nikola Tesla's laboratories were located was burned to the ground.
Mr. Tesla was at first very much affected by the news of his loss, but sustained the blow stoically, and within 6 hours was busily engaged making and giving out designs for the reconstruction of his latest type of oscillator, which has now been running successfully for some time past, lighting the laboratory and supplying current for a number of new and novel experiments.
In 1901, Tesla is forced into a partnership with JP Morgan. He signs controlling interest (51%) in his patents, both presently existing and all future ones, over to JP Morgan. The price? A measly $150,000.
In 1906, Nikola Tesla, indebted and effectively owned by JP Morgan, approached him with his altruistic vision — free energy. Tesla's plan was to make it available to the US and other parts of the world. His vision would have revolutionized the entire planet and given people an unknown freedom the world had never known. Energy independence given freely to the world's population would have launched a revolution which would have changed every facet of human life for hundreds of years to come.
This new power for the driving of the world’s machinery will be derived from the energy which operates the universe, the cosmic energy, whose central source for the earth is the sun and which is everywhere present in unlimited quantities. — Nikola Tesla

At this time, JP Morgan was financing Tesla's experiments. When he heard of this, JP Morgan was famously quoted as saying "If anyone can draw on the power, where do we put the meter?" In other words, how do we control it? How do we make people pay for it?
Without financial support or income from his inventions, Tesla was forced to look for other financial backing. In steps John Jacob Astor IV in 1908, arguably the wealthiest man in the world of his time. With Tesla's newfound partnership secured, he set off with John Astor to revolutionize aircraft propulsion systems.
The Federal Reserve
We can hardly talk about the wealthiest men of these times without talking about the financial systems that they founded. Before we begin, let's discuss what the Federal Reserve Bank is... or isn't. It isn't federal. It isn't a reserve. And it isn't a bank.
Are you thoroughly confused yet?
Basically, the Federal Reserve is the governing body which oversees inflation rates, interest rates, loans, and so on. In theory, it was created in order to stabilize the economy. In practice, it does anything but. The financial system that the Federal Reserve created isn't gold backed. It is debt backed. In other words, money is created through debt. And it is the Federal Reserve who manipulates the interest rates of those debt backed loans thereby controlling the amount of money in the US economy.
If you are thinking that this sounds like some weird federally created Ponzi scheme, you are not alone. Just remember, someone is going to be left holding the bag and it won't be the banks.
However, at the time that Nikola Tesla and John Jacob Astor IV had started up their partnership, the Federal Banking System was a dead issue due to the opposition of three men:
Benjamin Guggenheim, the heir to a mining dynasty
Isador Strauss, the head of Macy’s Department Stores
John Jacob Astor IV, the wealthiest man in the world
That didn't stop a secret meeting from being held off the coast of Georgia on an island named Jekyll Island at the Jekyll Island Hunt Club in 1910. It was attended by representatives for the Rockefellers, JP Morgan, and the Rothschild family. All three had a special interest in the Federal Reserve Bank being created.
JP Morgan was already acting as a central bank to the American government. He had propped up the American economy with $62 million in gold and stopped a banking crisis from happening.
The Rothschilds were the financers for the industrialization of Europe. For them it meant an expanded market and influence into the US economy. They were also the banking system to the wealth of Rome and the Vatican.
And the Rockerfellers were the oil giants. A Federal Reserve Bank could ensure the continuation of that influence for years to come.
It was all about control and ensuring that their empires didn't fall. You might read this and think these were altruistic motives to save a country's financial system. It wasn't. It was to save their own banks.
The people who attended that meeting included:
Abram Piatt Andrew, Jr., Director of the US Mint and Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under President Taft
Benjamin Strong, vice president of Bankers Trust
Charles D. Norton, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury under President Taft
Frank A. Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank of New York (now called Citibank)
Henry Pomeroy Davison, a senior partner at JP Morgan & Company
Nelson W. Aldrich, US Senator from Rhode Island and Republican Party leader
Paul M. Warburg, Director of Wells Fargo & Company
Conspiracy Theory! Murder Most Foul
JP Morgan was a man of many business interests. One of those interests was the Mercantile Marine Company. This is the same company which owned the Titanic.
In 1912, JP Morgan along with Benjamin Guggenheim, Isador Strauss, and John Jacob Astor IV were booked to be on the maiden voyage of the Titanic. When the ship left dock, JP Morgan was not onboard.
This is where the story treads into conspiracy theory. The story goes that JP Morgan arranged for all three men to have passage. A sister ship, the Lusitania, was badly damaged prior to this. The Lusitania looked much like the Titanic. So it isn't that stretch to the imagination to conceive that it wasn't the Titanic that the men boarded but a ship that looked identical to the Titanic in order to cover up the perfect murder.
If you have never read about this before, there are some very compelling arguments in favor of this conspiracy theory. So naturally, I went and researched why this conspiracy theory might be false. Here are some quotes from some Titanic historical experts.
"I've never been able to find an authoritative 1912 source explaining the exact reason why J. P. Morgan cancelled his passage on the Titanic, but he definitely didn't do so mere ‘hours’ before the ship's departure,” Titanic expert George Behe.
Meanwhile, Don Lynch, a historian at the Titanic Historical Society, said: “One of J.P. Morgan's biographers said that France was changing its laws to prevent Americans from exporting art treasures from that country, so Morgan went to Paris to oversee getting his purchases out of the country before the new laws went into effect.”
Also from [Titanic Historical Society], advisory board member Ray Lepien, said that as well as the art treasures theory, “the ‘official’ explanation was that he (Morgan) fell ill and wanted to take the ‘cure’ at a spa in France with his mistress.” Lepien added: “It could have been both reasons.”
In other words, the experts are just guessing themselves.
What is really interesting is when you go to look to see who else missed the boat. Surely, it can't just all be a coincidence. Can it?
Milton S. Hershey, founder of the North America’s largest chocolate firm, was due to travel on Titanic but was needed home at an earlier date.
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, the multimillionaire sportsman, and heir to the Vanderbilt shipping and railroad empire, was returning from a trip to Europe and cancelled his passage on the Titanic so late that some early newspaper accounts listed him as being on board. Vanderbilt lived on to become one of the most celebrated casualties of the Lusitania sinking three years later.
Whatever you believe the conspiracy theory or not, 1,517 people died in the sinking of the Titanic on April 15, 1912. This included Benjamin Guggenheim, Isador Strauss, and John Jacob Astor IV. And by all accounts Benjamin Guggenheim knew what was to be their fate.
Regarding Benjamin Guggenheim...
After the collision Bedroom Steward Henry Samuel Etches helped Mr Guggenheim to fit his lifebelt. Ignoring his protestations; "This will hurt", Etches finally managed to get the mining and smelting tycoon into the lifebelt, he then made him put on a thick sweater and sent him up to the Boat Deck. Despite Etches best efforts Guggenheim soon returned to his room (B-82) and changed into his finest evening wear, his valet, Mr Giglio did likewise. He was later heard to remark 'We've dressed up in our best and are prepared to go down like gentlemen.'
Regarding John Jacob Astor IV...
Even as the boats were loaded Astor appeared unperturbed, he ridiculed the idea of trading the solid decks of the Titanic for a small lifeboat 'we are safer here than in that little boat'. He had changed his mind by 1:45 when Second Officer Charles Lightoller arrived on A deck to finish loading Lifeboat 4. Astor helped his wife to climb through the windows of the enclosed promenade and then asked if he might join her, being as she was in 'a delicate condition'. Lightoller told him that no men could enter until all the women had been loaded. Astor stood back and just asked Lightoller which boat it was. After boat 4 was lowered at 1:55 Astor stood alone while others tried to free the remaining collapsible boats.
On August 29, 1913, a year later, the Federal Reserve Act was introduced in the House.
Control Realized
Consequently on December 23, 1913, the Federal Reserve Act was signed by President Woodrow Wilson.
The basic plan for the Federal Reserve System was drafted at a secret meeting held in November of 1910 at the private resort of J.P. Morgan on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia. Those who attended represented the great financial institutions of Wall Street and, indirectly, Europe as well. The reason for secrecy was simple. Had it been known that rival factions of the banking community had joined together, the public would have been alerted to the possibility that the bankers were plotting an agreement in restraint of trade— which, of course, is exactly what they were doing. What emerged was a cartel agreement with five objectives:
Stop the growing competition from the nation's newer banks;
Obtain a franchise to create money out of nothing for the purpose of lending;
Get control of the reserves of all banks so that the more reckless ones would not be exposed to currency drains and bank runs;
Get the taxpayer to pick up the cartel's inevitable losses;
And convince Congress that the purpose was to protect the public.
It was realized that the bankers would have to become partners with the politicians and that the structure of the cartel would have to be a central bank. The record shows that the Fed has failed to achieve its stated objectives. That is because those were never its true goals. As a banking cartel, and in terms of the five objectives stated above, it has been an unqualified success.
With the 1929 Banking Crash followed by the Great Depression, the Federal Reserve would prove what an unqualified success it would be.
The government soon came to regret the freedom it had granted the Federal Reserve as it stood by during the crash of 1929 and refused to prevent the Great Depression that followed.
Even now, it is hotly debated whether the Fed could have stopped the depression, but there is little doubt that it could have done more to soften and shorten it by providing lower interest rates to allow farmers to keep planting and businesses to keep producing. The high interest rates may even have been responsible for the unplanted fields that turned into dust bowls. By restricting the money supply at a bad time, the Fed starved out many individuals and businesses that might otherwise have survived.
Do you think it is a coincidence that the financial institutions those seven men who created the Federal Reserve represented are still around today? They were not one of the many individuals or businesses that the Federal Reserve starved during this time period of economic turmoil.
If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.

The Plan To Take Over The World
We shall have world government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether world government will be achieved by conquest or consent.
— Paul Warburg, Architect of the Federal Reserve
What happened to the seven men who met at Jekyll Island? Who were they really?
I briefly thought about going through the histories of all seven men and their genealogies. But really... most of it would be dull and pretty much lost within the scope of this tale. Needless to say, all seven men come from bloodline families. Some are more distinguished and well known than others. They all have roots in everything from the foundations of America to the Civil War and beyond into the World Wars. As always, follow the bloodlines.
I did however want to bring up the legacies these men created after that meeting on Jekyll Island. Did you honestly believe it would end with the Federal Reserve?
Once again, we are going to dip our toes into the realm of conspiracy.
The Inquiry
In 1917, Woodrow Wilson assembled a group of men to prepare for peace negotiations following World War I. This group of men were called The Inquiry. They met within the American Geographical Society in New York under the guidance of Col. Edward M. House.
Led by Col. Edward M. House, The Inquiry would later form into the Council on Foreign Relations in 1921, which was financed by:
Albert H. Wiggin
Bernard Baruch
Frank A. Vanderlip
Herbert H. Lehman
J.P. Morgan
Jacob Schiff
John D. Rockefeller
Nelson W. Aldrich
Otto Kahn
Paul M. Warburg
William Averell Harriman
Hmmm... Frank A. Vanderlip, JP Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Nelson W. Aldrich, and Paul Warburg. Where have I heard those names before?
On its website, the Council on Foreign Relations says that:
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is an independent, nonpartisan membership organization, think tank, and publisher dedicated to being a resource for its members, government officials, business executives, journalists, educators and students, civic and religious leaders, and other interested citizens in order to help them better understand the world and the foreign policy choices facing the United States and other countries. Founded in 1921, CFR takes no institutional positions on matters of policy.
— Council on Foreign Relations
Hilary Clinton spoke about the Council on Foreign Relations in 2016. This is what she had to say.
I [Hillary Clinton] am delighted to be here in these new headquarters. I have been often to, I guess, the mother ship in New York City, but it’s good to have an outpost of the Council right here down the street from the State Department. We get a lot of advice from the Council, so this will mean I won’t have as far to go to be told what we should be doing and how we should think about the future.
— Hilary Clinton
These types of societies expanded in later years and became the blueprint for other societies. For example, in 1954, the Bilderberg Group was founded by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands and Jozef Retinger (Joseph Retinger). And in 1973, the Trilateral Commission was created by David Rockefeller. It is important to note that all of the world's leaders belong to one of these three groups.
Just in case you were wondering, Klaus Schwab formed the World Economic Forum in 1971. He is also a member of the Bilderberg Group.
In 1943, the Council on Foreign Relations outlined the establishment of an organization, as well as the reconstruction of Germany and Japan in a post World War II. This organization became known as the United Nations (formerly the League of Nations).
The United Nations represents not a final stage in the development of world order, but only a primitive stage. Therefore its primary task is to create the conditions which will make possible a more highly developed organization.
— John Foster Dulles, Council on Foreign Relations member and an American delegate to the UN founding meeting who later became Secretary of State under Eisenhower
They also established the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
Two other postwar institutions, the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, were technically created at the 1944 Bretton Woods Conference. But the initial planning was done by the CFR’s Economic and Finance Group, part of their wartime War and Peace Studies Project. The World Bank and IMF act as a loan-guarantee scheme for multinational banks. When a loan to a foreign country goes awry, the World Bank and IMF step in with taxpayer money, ensuring that the private banks continue to receive interest payments. Furthermore, the World Bank and IMF dictate conditions to the countries receiving bailouts, thus giving the bankers a measure of political control over indebted nations.
If you wonder what the end goal of such groups are:
The CFR’s goal was formation of an incrementally stronger world government. Admiral Chester Ward, former Judge Advocate of the U.S. Navy, was a CFR member for 16 years before resigning in disgust. He stated: “The main purpose of the Council on Foreign Relations is promoting the disarmament of U.S. sovereignty and national independence, and submergence into an all-powerful one-world government.”
The Legend of St. Elmo's Fire
I started this article with Nikola Tesla. It seems almost fitting that I end it with him.
With the death of John Jacob Astor IV, Nikola Tesla once again found himself without financial backing. In steps JP Morgan who once again fills that void. Despite his numerous successes and inventions, Tesla would die a penniless man and recluse. However, there is one last curiosity to note before we end this tale.
One of Tesla's projects was given many names — St Elmo's Fire, Thor's Lightning, Tesla's Death Ray, and so on. Whatever name it is called, there is a huge mystery surrounding this. Since we are delving into a legend, take everything below with a grain of salt and do your own research. Much of what I am reporting are rumors, myths, and might be nothing more than the wild imaginings of a penniless mad scientist.
In 1908, a giant explosion erupted in a Siberian forest in Russia. Eight hundred square miles of Siberian trees and wildlife were flattened in an instant with no explanation. Experts speculated on the cause.
Whilst it quickly became apparent something momentous had happened at Tunguska, the area of the blast remained inaccessible until the first expedition there in 1927.
The 1927 investigation began nearly a century of debate about what caused the blast, with explanations ranging from comets and meteors to expulsions of natural gas and even mini black holes.
One of the alternative theories about Tunguska revolves around pioneering inventor Nikola Tesla.
It was during the height of World War II that Nikola Tesla announced his death ray.
In 1934, Tesla claimed that his research had resulted in an incredible new discovery: a device that could kill from miles away with electricity.
Tesla called his invention the Teleforce. While many now know it as the Tesla death ray, the inventor resisted the term to describe it because it didn’t transmit rays as a ray of energy would dissipate in the air. Instead, Tesla’s invention focused energy along a narrow path, which he claimed made it powerful enough to bring down airplanes and kill people instantly.
There was only one problem with his invention. No one was interested. He pitched his invention to both the United States and Soviet Union. It wasn't until his death that the United States government became concerned.
After Nikola Tesla was found dead in January 1943 in his hotel room in New York City, representatives of the U.S. government’s Office of Alien Property seized many documents relating to the brilliant and prolific 86-year-old inventor’s work.
The man in charge of that operation was none other than Dr. John G. Trump, President Donald Trump's uncle.
According to the declassified files, Dr. John G. Trump reported that his analysis showed Tesla’s efforts to be “primarily of a speculative, philosophical and promotional character” and said the papers did “not include new sound, workable principles or methods for realizing such results.”
Russia! Russia! Russia!
Legend has it that one of two outcomes happened to Tesla's missing files. Both of these scenarios take place around the same time frame -- the 1980's.
One of those outcomes was that the papers were leaked to the Russian government. It was about this time that Russia started its research programs into energy based weapons.
The other outcome has Ronald Reagan using Tesla's research for be the basis of the strategic defense initiative called the Star Wars program.
Despite John G. Trump’s dismissive assessment of Tesla’s ideas immediately after his death, the military did try and incorporate particle-beam weaponry in the decades following World War II, Seifer says. Notably, the inspiration of the “Death Ray” fueled Ronald Reagan’s Strategic Defense Initiative, or “Star Wars” program, in the 1980s. If the government is still using Tesla’s ideas to power its technology, Seifer explains, that could explain why some files related to the inventor still remain classified.
And then there are rumors that Tesla's invention could have been the basis for the Manhattan Project during the Roosevelt years. Whatever the truth is regarding Tesla's missing files, there is one thing that is certain. History is all tied together.

As always I really enjoyed this read. Most of it I have read about in some shape or form. What I didn’t know was the possible tie between Tesla’s “Death Ray” and Reagan’s “Star Wars” project. First time I’ve heard mention of this. Very Dasty !! I also didn’t know about the explosion in the forest. Thank Q Dove.
The Mighty Niagara Falls generates the biggest power plant here in WNY. I live minutes away ftom one of the seven wonders of the world. Have you ever heard the Kim Clement prophecy about the letter Q and NY? There are no coincidences and everything happens for a reason. It took tremendous courage exposing all the demons.They infiltrated the Vatican, our government, hollywood and royal family. I'm not a conspiracy theorist or a domestic terrorist. I was given Q clearance in the QResearch back channel four years ago. President Trump(Q+) entrusted me to expose the truth. The news media knows I exposed all the names, in Epstein's flight log.They also know I exposed Nancy Pelosi, in the underground rooms of Epstein island, caught on security camera ch11. The "swamp" all got caught and nothing can stop what is coming. There are no coincidences why I have all the "declassified" information. I've been viciously attacked and persecuted for exposing the truth. Many in hollywood and government worshiped the pagan god moloch (satan) and they all got caught. I spent so many painful and sleepless nights, researching and archiving all the "declassified" documents and files from QResear h operation. No one in my family or any of my friends, realize what've I've done for my country. The news articles trashing "QAnon" are intentional and mis/disinformation. I'm not a conspiracy theorist or a domestic terrorist. The journalists writing news articles regarding "QAnon" haven't a clue who I am because I'm not a public figure or a celebrity. I am a disabled American patriot.I was chosen to serve my country and God above. This is a holy war of good vs evil/God vs satan. There will be many casualties and arrests.
