I just landed and walked straight into this one — sat down with the Hot Cakes and Hot Takes guys and we went deep. I tell the story of the day I visited my father in Leavenworth and the one question he asked me before I got made, the answer that changed my life. I explain what the oath actually is, because people get it wrong. And I get into something most people have never heard: back in 1982, I bought into Trump Tower in cash with a Russian partner whose brother was KGB — and forty years later, the FBI came knocking, trying to turn that deal into their Russia connection. I'll tell you exactly what I told them. There's a lot more in here — solitary, the war that almost took me with it, and yeah, they even had me do the "funny how" scene. This one's got it all.
A personal thank you to all of you on my 75th birthday. And for all those of you who helped me reach 2 million subscribers today on YouTube. A wonderful birthday gift. And to my beautiful wife, wonderful children and to an awesome God! - Thank you from deep within my heart!❤️🙏
Had breakfast with 2 legends. My dear friends, Joe Pistone aka “Donnie Brasco” and Steve Murphy. Amazing how we have gotten together after being on opposite sides of the fence. We are all one in the kingdom of God, my friends. Took me a while to understand that. Amen!
A HAPPY & BLESSED MOTHER’S DAY to all the Moms. You ladies are the matriarchs. The glue that holds our families together. And to my BEAUTIFUL wife - I love you with all my heart.❤️ You are as beautiful today as the day I married you - 41 years ago yesterday, May 9th! 🙏🙏❤️
The Profaci–Gallo war was the first big mob war I remember as a kid, and it changed the Colombo family forever. I was there when my father moved us out of Brooklyn, when guys were getting kidnapped, and when this started turning from a money dispute into open season on both sides. In this video I break down how Joe Profaci’s $25 “tribute” demand lit the fuse, why the Gallo brothers kidnapped top Profaci men, how my father and Sally “The Sheik” Masaccio went in to negotiate the hostage release, and why Carmine “The Snake” Persico switched sides and tried to kill Larry Gallo. We go through Joe Colombo’s rise, the so‑called peace, the shooting at the Italian‑American Civil Rights League rally, Joe Gallo’s murder at Umberto’s Clam House, and why I now believe the FBI – not Gallo – was behind the hit on Colombo. If you’re into the mob history and especially the Colombo family, you’re going to want to watch this one all the way through. Let me know in the comments what you think really happened and who was calling the shots behind the scenes.
