Honestly this is the first “advanced” mafia scheme I’ve heard of in a while.

Last time I heard about a mafia crime it was a very sloppy hit that sounded more like what you hear from teenagers in Chicago shooting at each other.

Though tbf it could easily have always been like that and I’m just blinded my media bias about a group of people I’ve never known form a time I’ve never known.

My friend, supposed US citizen Larry Ellison - single largest private donor to the IDF - just bought TikTok because it was critical of the genocide in Gaza (lead by his friend Netanyahu). He also now owns CBS and installed Bari Weiss to run it.

You’ll get called antisemitic (if being pro American and anti genocide is that then so be it), but Ellison is just one case of many. How else could the US congress show bipartisan support to Israeli causes but can’t agree on anything else? How do the Epstein files get discarded? The list goes on.
