The Federal Reserve & The Sinking of the Titanic

The Financial Elite and the Push for the Federal Reserve

In November 1910, a secret meeting took place at Jekyll Island, Georgia, where some of the most powerful bankers in the United States met to draft the framework for what would become the Federal Reserve Act. This meeting was not publicly disclosed at the time, and it laid the foundation for a private banking cartel under the guise of serving the public. The five financial representatives at the meeting were:

  • Senator Nelson Aldrich – Representing the interests of the Rockefeller family.

  • Henry P. Davison – Representing J.P. Morgan.

  • Paul Warburg – Representing the Kuhn, Loeb & Co. banking dynasty.

  • Frank A. Vanderlip – Representing the National City Bank of New York (now Citibank).

  • Charles D. Norton – Representing First National Bank of New York.

At the time, several wealthy and influential men were vocal opponents of a centralized banking system, including John Jacob Astor IV, Benjamin Guggenheim, and Isidor Straus—all of whom perished when the Titanic sank. Their deaths conveniently removed some of the strongest financial voices against the Federal Reserve.

J.P. Morgan’s Role and the Titanic’s Convenient Timing

A key figure in this theory is J.P. Morgan, one of the wealthiest and most influential bankers in history. Not only was Morgan instrumental in the planning of the Federal Reserve, but he also owned the White Star Line, the company that built the Titanic. While he was scheduled to be on the Titanic’s maiden voyage, he canceled his trip at the last minute—just days before departure.

Meanwhile, Astor, Guggenheim, and Straus—three of the wealthiest opponents of the Federal Reserve—remained aboard. Had they survived, they could have used their financial influence to prevent the establishment of the Federal Reserve Act in 1913.

The Links Between Captain Edward Smith and the Jesuits

Captain Edward Smith, the Titanic’s commanding officer, was known for his decades of experience at sea. However, he had ties to the Jesuit Order, a globalist organization with ties to banking and global financial control. Smith had attended a Jesuit retreat before setting sail, where he received orders to ensure the ship’s destruction.

His highly questionable decisions on the night of the disaster support this notion:

  • Ignoring multiple iceberg warnings from other ships.

  • Maintaining full speed in dangerous waters despite the risks.

  • Failing to conduct an effective evacuation, allowing lifeboats to leave half-full.

The idea that Smith was working on behalf of the Jesuits suggests a much deeper and more coordinated effort to eliminate financial opposition to the Federal Reserve.

The Aftermath: The Federal Reserve is Created in 1913

With no opposition from Astor, Guggenheim, and Straus, the Federal Reserve Act was successfully passed on December 23, 1913. This new banking system placed control of U.S. monetary policy into the hands of private bankers, giving them unprecedented power over the economy. Since its creation, the Federal Reserve has been accused of manipulating interest rates, controlling inflation, and financing wars—all without government oversight.

Suspicious Events and Cover-Ups

Beyond the deaths of key financial figures, other suspicious details surrounding the Titanic disaster add fuel to the theory:

1. The Ship Swap Theory

The Titanic was switched with its damaged sister ship, the RMS Olympic, as part of an insurance fraud scheme. The Olympic had been involved in a serious collision and was considered financially unsalvageable. Swapping it with the Titanic would allow the owners to collect insurance money while eliminating key financial opposition to the Federal Reserve.

2. The Mystery of the Californian’s Radio Silence

The SS Californian, a ship within rescue distance, failed to respond to the Titanic’s distress calls. Despite being the closest ship to the sinking vessel, it did not come to aid the passengers, raising suspicions that its crew was ordered to stand down.

3. The Media’s Immediate Control of the Narrative

Within hours of the disaster, mainstream newspapers pushed the idea that the Titanic had sunk due to a freak accident and navigational error. Any alternative explanations, including questions about financial motives, were quickly dismissed or ignored. The fact that media moguls with connections to financial elites controlled major newspapers at the time suggests an intentional suppression of the deeper story.

4. The Rapid Destruction of Evidence

After the Titanic sank, multiple efforts were made to prevent independent investigations:

  • Survivors were quarantined and instructed not to discuss the event.

  • The wreckage site was left untouched for decades, preventing forensic analysis.

  • Documents and blueprints related to the Titanic and its construction were sealed or lost.

5. Unusual Insurance Payouts

Despite White Star Line’s financial difficulties, insurance claims were settled remarkably quickly. This further suggests pre-planning and foreknowledge of the disaster.

Conclusion

While the official story of the Titanic disaster remains one of tragic misfortune, the timing, the victims, and the aftermath paint a different picture. Was the sinking of the Titanic a deliberate act to remove opposition to the Federal Reserve? The evidence suggests that the disaster may have been one of history’s greatest cover-ups—one that changed the course of global finance forever.
