Freemasonry and the Founding Fathers: Symbols, Secrets, and Power

When the term “Freemasonry” is mentioned, many imagine secret handshakes, coded symbols, and a brotherhood working behind the scenes of history. But the real story begins in the Enlightenment — with guilds of stonemasons evolving into a global fraternity that helped shape the ideals of liberty and reason.

In this episode of The Broken Truth Podcast, we uncover:
- How Freemasonry rose from medieval guilds to Enlightenment lodges
- The Founding Fathers who wore the Masonic apron and what it meant to them
- The meaning behind symbols like the all-seeing eye, the unfinished pyramid, and the compass and square
- The scandal of the 1826 Morgan Affair and how it ignited America’s first third party
- Whether Freemasonry still holds influence in modern society
