The eagle totem comes from Rome, as do many other things relating to the U.S. government: e.g. the republican form of government, the senate, the classical revival architecture, etc.
Part of the reason for this is that the country was founded during the Enlightenment when interest in classical learning was high and becoming more accessible through universities.
Many of the illustrious and educated people at that time were indeed also Freemasons (Washington and Franklin were 33rd degree Scottish Rite Freemasons (Washington was also in the York Rite)), so getting into the ruling class was largely a club thing, just as it remains today. Freemasonry has made much of all things from Western antiquity, especially venerating the Roman and Egyptian civilizations, so Roman themes appear throughout their literature and have heavily influenced the creation of this nation. Even the man who designed the layout of D.C. with its pentagram shape was a Freemason.
Now, regarding your original post, this narrative you‘ve come across sounds like a mixed up conspiracy theory loosely based on a real conspiracy that actually happened, albeit much later in the nation’s history. To wit, in 1871 the congress passed the Organic Act that incorporated a 10 square mile area of the city of Washington, which became Washington D.C. When this happened, the Federal government, legally speaking, became a corporation. The legal, corporate, de facto government that we have been under ever since is a sharp contrast to the lawful, constitutional republic, de jure government we once had. In effect, when the Organic Act was passed, those 10 square miles became foreign soil; and when the elected officials stepped out of their Constitutional offices and into the corporate offices of the District of Columbia, they effectively became a foreign government. However, hardly anyone even noticed when this happened because there weren’t any sudden changes that drew public attention. The reason that we don’t hear about this from the state governments is because they were unlawfully converted into subsidiaries of the new corporation known as UNITED STATES. When outsider/newbie politicians who don’t know about this get into state offices and start harping about “states rights”, they soon find out that they can’t actually do anything to return Constitutionally guaranteed rights to their states, because that document has no legal force upon the corporation. When someone in “federal” government today refers to the Constitution, they are doing so as a matter of showmanship/public relations and political expediency. So essentially, what all of this boils down to is that we now have two entities existing side by side, a lawful constitutional republic called the united States of America, which most Americans grew up believing in, and a legal corporation named UNITED STATES, which behaves like it has rightful sovereign authority but operates under color of law. It should be easy for us to spot this fraud since We the People are supposed to be sovereign, and as such, the rightful authority. So now you know why the government used to protect the rights of the people and now it treats them like property: because they are actually two different governments.

As to whether or not there is a group that claims to descend from Atlanteans who suckered George... well, I’m sure Illuminists tell themselves they are the heirs of Atlantis, mystic groups always identify with anything mysterious in history because they think it makes them seem wise with otherworldly, arcane, esoteric knowledge. That’s how they get suckers like George, seeking enlightenment, to join the Freemasons in the first place.
