Rhoda Wilson – The Expose Nov 21, 2025

In 1978, John Todd spoke about plans laid out in a 1957 book by Ayn Rand, a mistress of Phillip Rothschild, about the Illuminati raising oil prices and then later destroying the oil fields and completely shutting down the coal industry.

This is one of the aims of the climate change cult.  Is it merely a coincidence?

The Plan to Control Oil Prices and Eliminate “Fossil Fuels”

John Todd, also known by various aliases including John Todd Collins, Lance Collins and Christopher Kollyns, said he was a high-ranking member of a secret satanic conspiracy involving the Illuminati and witchcraft.  He asserted he was born into a family of witches and was groomed from childhood to become a Grand Druid high priest within the Illuminati, a secret group he claimed was plotting a global takeover.

He served as a high priest in the “Council of Thirteen,” a group he said was subordinate to the Rothschild family, whom he alleged were demonic entities.  Todd said his family lineage, the Collins bloodline, had been involved in witchcraft for generations.

In February 1979, Christianity Today said: “Todd, 29, [ ] has announced that he is through. He told friends in the Los Angeles area last month that he had been shot at frequently and that his house was firebombed. Therefore, he said, he will take no more speaking engagements; he, his wife, and three children will head for a secret retreat location.”

Many believe Todd was genuine, while others do not.  But what can’t be denied is how closely Todd’s revelations about the plan to dominate the world seem to describe world events.  It may be decades later than Todd predicted, but it cannot be a coincidence.

For example, in 1978, Todd gave a speech at the Elkton Maryland Baptist Church when he said that the Illuminati manipulated global events by controlling oil prices, destroying industries and using popular culture, such as rock music, to spread satanic influence.

MANY BANKS and FAMOUS CORPORATIONS ARE OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY THE ILLUMINATI. We tell Christians across the US that housewives and husbands cannot shop any day or any week without buying from a company that the Illuminati owns; it is impossible.

PHILLIP ROTHSCHILD ORDERED ONE OF HIS MISTRESSES TO WRITE AN 1100-PAGE BOOK that would describe to all witches how they would take control of the World through the Illuminati: It’s called Atlas Shrugged (By Ayn Rand). One Table of Contents of the things in it is happening on the front pages of the newspapers across the United States right now. In fact, she spent a third of the book describing how they would raise the oil prices and then later destroy the oil fields and then they would also completely shut down the coal.

IT ALSO DESCRIBED HOW THEY WOULD BLOW UP GRAIN MILLS, how they would derail trains. Their sole purpose is to bankrupt their own companies and destroy their own companies until they destroyed the currency of the whole World, and still be so financially strong they would withstand it.
