Shell companies and offshore accounts, same tactics he and his cohorts used to hide illegally gained money from the feds. Interesting interview.

It’s how all criminals move money around. Some member of the MSM needs to ask Biden why his family need all of these LLCs, what the bank accounts were for and proof taxes were paid.

I also found interesting something else I heard a week or two ago from the same type of tv news digest program (Fox Reports or some shite) but anyhow what the mafioso said was that Biden and them did the dirty work of applying Joe’s status and position for the family business, particularly in the area of collections department with stubborn “debtors,” Hunter would make the calls and “subtly” ensure that the owing party was aware that the Big Guy was in the loop on the particular issue. In other words, dad’s aware that you haven’t settled your account balance and that it’s past due, and he isn’t pleased. Which is the way the mafia did it with higher level debts. A captain would make contact with the party in debt and ensure them that the boss has taken personal interest and is in the loop. That tends to make the person figure it out and settle the balance real quick.

If you really get down to the brass tacts, even though I feel RICO is a very unconstitutional act, RICO could be used daily to bring down any organization, including goooooooooooooooooooooberment entities.

I have always said those DC and State goooooooooooooooberment monsters better be real careful for what they wish for.

Potentially even malicious political campaigns!

If the fricking media had a shred of credibility, they’d be asking him these questions.

Of course not.
Attack the messenger.
Or, like during Rona..... You're a chemist not an MD therefore you can't speak on medical shite..... despite having points that they can't refute. They hide behind credentials, or attacking the messenger. Facts be damned.

You have some kind of inside knowledge? Franzese is lying? No one has come forward to discount his account. It’s in his book and he speaks openly about it.

Michael is correct. Micheal also embellishes and exaggerates, although I don’t think he did here. I’ve met him. I’ll just leave it at that. Met Trump also. Their personalities are similar, as is mine.

Voted for Trump twice. Will very likely vote for him again. Can’t believe the mad rush to war by the uniparty. Can’t believe supposed civil libertarians and constitutional conservatives are so passive as this country turns into a third world banana republic.

Interesting times we live in. I personally have always found reality more entertaining than fiction.

I always wondered why the Trump side had a money laundering specialist in the meeting Trump Jr had with the Russians in 2016 Trump Tower supposedly to discuss abortions.

His dad wanted to have him whacked because he broke La Cosa Nostra’s code of omertà, not because he’s an idiot.

He’s not here to refute anything that Franzese said. He’s here to defend Joe Biden and democrats because that’s what he does.

I spend time at one of their social clubs. As an invited guest. They are (Colombo) generally blue collar, but not always. Tom Mix isn't blue collar as an example. My neighbor in Pompano Beach in the winter is a Colombo. I know a lot of them. At one time I made sports book, and I laid off to them in NY and FLA. I'm from the Midwest, but always knew you can't work and play in the same town, so it caused some friction with Chicago. But NY > Chicago, and it ain't even close.

All that crap mafia fan boys read? Trust me, if you make money you're treated better than higher ranking made guys, and I laid off a lot of sports bets to those guys.

The Fed's wrapped me up. I was unindicted, never arrested, but still held held for 18 days in a federal camp. They forfeitured all of my money. Never arrested, never indicted, and never convicted.

The Feds are scum, and I'm voting for Trump. I hope Trump shoves it up their arse.

I'm still amazed at how many people are fascinated by Sicilian mafia. It's nothing to aspire to, and it's no big deal. I've met Vic Amuso, I've met Skinny Joey, and a bunch of others that I can't recall right now.

He was not whacked because he was such a prolific earner and only he knew how to set up the shell companies and dissolve them at the right time.

I remember an aUSA telling me that Franzese was probably the smartest guy they ever prosecuted.

Carmine Persico nixed the contract on Franzese . Franzese also essentially paid upwards of 60 million to Persico and his associates to walk away
