The Claim: George Washington was warned of the Illuminati of the New World Order conspiracy fame
The Reality: The
Illuminati was a secret society founded in Bavaria in 1776, by Adam
Weishaupt. This was group of intellectuals that espoused the ideals of
the enlightenment. In fact Illuminati is the Latin plural of
illuminatus, meaning "enlightened". In particular the illuminati
espoused the enlightenment concept of Deism which had gained
popularity among intellectuals of the time, which drew criticism and
often resulted in vilification of them by religious leaders, and thus
why it should come as no surprise that this correspondence to Washington
was penned by a revered. The revered in his letter which you can find

...alleges that the Illuminati and the Jacobin (A group of French Revolutionaries) had infiltrated the Free Masons, a group that Washington himself was a member of, based on an account by John Robinson. Rev. Synder also warns that the tenets of the Illuminati, and of the Jacobin had spread into the U.S.
In response to this warning, Washington agrees that the Bavarian secret society of Illuminati and the Jacobin have harmful convictions, and that these convictions have spread to the United States, writing:
"It was not my intention to doubt that, the Doctrines of the Iluminati, and principles of Jacobinism had not spread in the United States. On the contrary, no one is more fully satisfied of this fact than I am."
However Washington denies the claim that the Free Masons had been infiltrated by Bavarian Illuminati or French Jacobins or their ideas, retorting that the Free Masons would never propagate the ideals of either group, writing:
"The idea I meant to convey, was, that I did not believe that the Lodges of Free Masons in this Country had, as Societies, endeavoured to propagate the diabolical tenets of the first {The Illuminati}, or the pernicious principles of the latter{The Jacobin}."
The main emphasis here being that the Illuminati, were not only a real group of real people, with a known set of beliefs, but was disbanded in 1787
