Prescott Bush was a US deep politician born into the Bush family. He sponsored an unknown Richard Nixon and oversaw his accession to US presidentTemplate:Cn.

Skull and Bones

Full article: Skull and Bones

Prescott Bush, like his son and grandson, was also a member of Skull and Bones. In 1918, Prescott Bush and two companions reportedly robbed the grave of Geronimo, stealing his skull for use in Skull and Bones rituals in the tomb at Yale.[1][2] A 2006 issue of Yale Alumni Magazine stated that an internal history of Skull and Bones, written in the 1930s, reported the theft, but that "if the Bonesmen did rob a grave, there's reason to think it may have been the wrong one. But the letter shows that the story was no after-the-fact rumor."[3]

Trading with the enemy

In the 1930s, Prescott Bush worked for Brown Brothers Harriman, who helped Fritz Thyssen finance Adolf Hitler.[4]

In 1942 Prescott Bush's company's assets were seized under the Trading with the Enemy Act.[4] Without citing a source, Mark Gorton claims that "in 1945, Richard Nixon was a US Navy lawyer assigned to look in[to] captured Nazi documents which showed Nazi collusion with Allen Dulles.

Sponsorship of Nixon

"In exchange for [his] helping to cover up the Dulles war time treason, Allen Dulles and Prescott Bush agreed to help finance Nixon's political career."[5]
