From what I understand, he was a DeMolay member in Kansas City in his teenage years but never joined Freemasonry itself. Some people think Club 33 at Disneyland was named after the 33rd degree, but apparently the real reason for its name is because it was named after its address on Royal Street in New Orleans Square at Disneyland
Who took money from the CIA to get his stupid park built?
I don't know of any evidence that the CIA provided him any money. What he did do, though, was to hire Paul Helliwell and William Donovan, who had CIA connections (in fact, Donovan had founded the OSS, the CIA's precursor). Helliwell and Donavan used their spy skills to make money on the side in corporate espionage and the like, sort of like lawfare mercenaries for hire. He used their skills to help him stealthily acquire the land he needed.
