My father always told me, “Never give the government any more power than it already has, because you’ll never get it back.”
As we know from growing up , he was right.
Very relevant to the times we are living. Sadly most of society bends over and takes up the ass anyway. How they cannot see what they are allowing to happen is beyond me. Very Naive
Don Giovanni Trump has learned that lesson the hard way .........and they're not done with the Don yet
A "lockdown" was originally for unruly prisoners. Now a "lockdown" is for law-abiding citizens in the name of "public health". In the future who knows what the grounds for future lockdowns will be.
Tell that to "Law and Order" Republicans.
RICO would eliminate the government if it was used against them.
Lmao
I agree
They should rico the government...98% would be gone
I believe that... start with an audit of all the foreign aid money..
All the false flag wars all the missing billions in weapons money? Oh yeah.Biggest gang in US.
I found out about Michael’s TH-cam channel 3 days ago and I’ve watched like 40 videos already
Go watch Sammy Gravanos channel also. Like Micheal, Sammy is a phenomenal story teller
I did the same thing with Sammy G. Finished all his videos in 3 days now switched over to this. Shit is fascinating. These are stories that were never supposed to see the light of day.
@@upstateshenanigans430 indeed
Same. Good stuff. I really appreciate his openess.
Same🤷♀️
The RICO Act should apply to the government as well. When one member of government commits a crime, they are all responsible.
Ooohhh, that would be fun to see!!
The RICO Act was made so that the government could take control of the assets the Mafia had
Kosher Nostra
Very, very good point. At the very least use the same principle they use with the families and use their political parties
Hear hear!
"The phone is a cop!"
Everyone should teach their children this.
"The phone is a cop!!" This statement will def trip many people up in today's society. I have a feeling that whenever somebody sits @ a light even after it changes, they prob got their nose in the phone.
@@jbanderson708 Sonny Franzese would say today "Stay off social media, and don't send emails or texts."
Some apps can follow you try your car insurance app ?
Yup. Notice you might be having having a conversation with someone about something next time you check your phone it has a bunch of recommendations related to the conversation you had. Eerie.
@@northernking6610 Eerie? No. It’s wonderful. I’m just stumbling through life so it’s good to have others thinking for me and anticipating my needs. It turns out that I’m frightfully unaware of what’s optimal for me. Gotta go. The next video in the timeline is about African Grey parrots and it’s recommended for me so I’m bound to like it.
My grandfather always said the real criminals are the politicians. At the time I was to young to understand how right he was. RIP grandad. ❤️
Wise man
@@russellr6089thank you, that he was.
No disrespect to your grandfather but though it's a nice and widely held believe trope but in actuality in the real world it's completely false. Politicians aren't aliens from Mars that are completely detached from their surrounding environment, they come from and represent the society itself. The politicians are criminals precisely because the society is criminal. The politicians are corrupt precisely because the society is corrupt. It's easy to blame it on a visible public figure and it's convenient to exonerate ourselves as the source of the problem.
Likewise it's easy to glorify the mob until you find yourself as a victim of their actions.
Someone wiser than I once remarked: "Politics doesn't corrupt people. Politics attracts corruptible people.'
Some politicians are criminals but all gangsters are criminals.
" If they don't have the evidence they should not fabricate it, "
I wholeheartedly agree,
i'm so captivated when i'm tuning on michael videos....and not only about the mob stories.his aura,his beliefs.....you know it's true. he's a great spokeperson for god.

You 🔔🔚
@@michaelfranzese I know this might sound like a daft question but you know when the mafia would buy themselves a new car would they choose one on the size of the trunk? You know what i mean like how many dead bodies can i fit in this?
@@victaaakershaw9651 maybe Michael is repeating himself for new subscribers and /or the fact he can only speak from what he has experienced and honestly.
I remember a line from 'Goodfellas' - "Paulie hated telephones. He wouldn't have one in his home"
Jeff sokol?
Love what Michael had to say about RICO. Also, I’ve always found it hard to wrap my head around how it’s legal for cops can break in someone’s house and plant a recording device. That’s not how the law should operate.
And those will be the good hold days. With AI , transhumanism cashless society and 5g. We'll miss those days because their going to be in our heads and homes
They're in our pockets. Literally.
That’s modern day cointelpro for you. They say they don’t do it anymore but it’s funny how shortly after they said this the RICO came in tact once the mob went public. Since then the RICO has only become even more bs and they can effectively use unjust tactics to investigate anyone they deem as interest. This was signed off by the Feds too smh
Use to be illegal for them to do that
Hey so wats ur Instagram tho
I had the "opportunity" to spend several years in very close contact with Mr Persico during our extended stay in Butner Nc in the latter parts of his life. Mr Persico was a "stand up Man" Constantly various law enforcement personal would show up and offer proffer deals for any info that he would discuss with them. He was tough and always maintained the code that he was literally "built for" Much Respect. He never said a f;;king word...
Michael you are 100% correct. I’m a former lawyer and the Rico act is beyond unconstitutional. Thank you for you continuing education.
I agree with that. As a lawyer please why do you believe it is unconstitutional?
@@gamevidz8763 it violates all of the safeguards of justice either as an indirect consequence or deliberately. For example, unlawful search and seizure. Allowing the criminal justice system to connect a vague series of events and then that connection being the basis for a criminal conspiracy case where search warrants and wire taps can be issued is ridiculous. If you can do that with verifiable proof, fine. Thats not the case with RICO predicates though.
Larry Mazza just told a story how Greg Scarpa killed a girl because she was threatening to give up Juniors location while he was on the lam... and one of the guys came back from the hit and said “we’re all going to hell for this one”
Also says Persico & son knew Scarpa was informant for 20 years!!
They were worried she'd give up information on alley boy persico no junior.
Sammy tells a different story why Scarpa killed her. BTW, the girl was Alphonse’s girlfriend. Watch Sammy’s recent podcast
@@anthonyjona7779 id believe Mazza over Sammy because Larry was there and also Greg’s right hand man
Link ?
I remember when the civil forfeiture law was passed. People looked at it and said, "Hey, this isn't right. The government could use this to steal from normal law abiding citizens."
The politicians said, "Oh no, we'd never do that. That's not what this law is written for. This law allows us to take the drug dealers money and use it against the drug dealer."
And what is the normal person civil forfeiture is used against?
Normal law abiding citizens who have broken no law. They use the law to steal from people.
We're definitey witnessing government overreach right now in our lifetime and we have been for quite a while now.
Rico is Communism
We've given the government way too much power to the point where they don't really care about the people
FINALLY HE TALKS ABOUT CARMINE
@@victaaakershaw9651 what I mean is finally a whole video just based on him
As someone who was a victim of trumped-up conspiracy charges that never even occurred and having a cellmate who was a victim of the Rico laws for something he wasn't even involved in I'm glad someone with this many followers is speaking about this and more need to do it
The legend himself love watching his videos not just a video but he's teaching you things about life and about his own life
Keep these stories coming Mr. FRANZESE. Love em
you’re the most genuine guy when it comes to life lessons and experiences. lots of positive energy and best wishes to you and your family. love from India ❤️
Mike, I have listened to about 95% of your total online content from you channel and other channels.
You are a great thinker and you give great advice!!! You have one of the best TH-cam channels out there. You should do an episode on the net worth of politicians.
Politicians are the mafia now. You can make more money in politics than the mafia. I was going to say organized crime but, politics is organized crime.
On a different subject. My opinion is you more than earned the right to leave that life. Also from situations you have revealed. The mafia pushed you away once you were of no value to them.
I am sure I am right because I have experienced the same thing in my life.
Great show! Great content! Great advice! Great job!!!
I have never forgotten when you talked about the Bible saying that when a man’s path is pleasing to God then even his enemies will leave him be. I know that is not quoted correctly.
Thank you and God bless!!!

Getting first-hand insight on the historic/legendary people and events that I grew up with is really something special. Thank you, sir!
Agreed, Michael. Well stated. There is a difference between the government trying to solve crimes, and the government targeting citizens! Too often people applaud, and allow government to have unauthorized power to go after others whom they don't like or agree with, and they forget that the government can use that same unauthorized power to go after them!
These stories are excellent!
I’ve been watching multiple stories for days now
A lawyer never asks a question they don't already know the answer to.
Talk about Jimmy Burke, thank you, God bless and stay safe
I’m sure he has some little, unheard Jimmy Burke stories. Any perspective at all on the guy I find pretty interesting.
Yea, I was just reading some more about him again the past couple days.
@Luke R Heyyyy
Nice
Good call back !
jimmy burke was a badass irish mobster / gangster, from also what i have put together. annd he lived a long tiime. =)
You’re a fantastic story teller I’m always glued to the screen hanging on your every word.
Not sure why but I found Mike about a week ago and now my entire TH-cam homepage is MOB STUFF WITH MIKE. Haha I just love the dude. Seems so genuine
Micheal, you're a genuinely gifted speaker, bags of charisma. These videos are as good as it's possible to see for people interested in Cosa Nostra!
I agree. Enjoy watching them.

If the populist left and right joined together we could overrun Washington. Unfortunately, the government is very good at dividing us.

Just look it up
I love your maturity and nuance! Not taking everything personal! Understanding the "The Principal"! I hope you continue to do well in life! Peace and love from Chicago!
Love the channel and listening to your perspective and stories
Michael, do you have any stories about guys who couldn't hack it in the mob due to having too much of a conscience?
excellent question
That's a great question!
I'd love to hear that.
Same people can't become cops
I remember him telling a a story of one of his friends who was so fearful of getting killed and sick of living that life that he shot himself. Cant remember his name however.
Nearly 3k views in less than 20 minutes! Wow! You are blessed, my brother in Christ.
Nice to hear your stories, Michael. We chatted together, in a phone interview, when I had my Across America radio program on KGAB AM 650 in Cheyenne Wyoming back in 2012 or so. Enjoying your channel here. Thanks.
Great vid glad you and your father got healing time with each other informative
Michael Franzese is like wine. He gets better with age.
Kinda sus bro.
Sus af
If You like Tainted Wine..............I guess.
He has aged little from that first valuentainment interview that blow him up
Are you guys 10y old gettin old and being good shape and mentioning it has nothing to do with being gay?
Great to see the subscription numbers continuing to grow. This channel deserves endless amounts of people watching it. Love this channel so entertaining and informative
Thanks for all your vidéos Michael ! They are both entertaining and informative. They are all the more relevant because they emanate from a person who has known this life. God bless you and all your family
Only just discovered your channel, having read about the Mafia for years. Really enjoying your interesting content, keep up the good work and thank you!
Listening to you, Mr Franzese, is like listening to nonfiction novel being read.
"Rights aren't rights if someone can take them away." - George Carlin. Unfortunately most people don't think of the overall implications of allowing goverment the power to break the law (the way RICO does or the Patriot Act etc.). It's hard to feel empathy for career criminals getting 100 years in prison but the principle should count above all and should apply to everyone.
the principal does apply to us all
not to clintons ibama biden comey fbi state dept media socIal media giants
Either you give everyone rights and allow crime , racism and corruption to fester, or you get a warrant from a judge showing reasonable need for it.
It's not taking away their rights, it's trying to stop crime hiding behind that kind of rights.
When you look at certain state governments they are not allowing American citizens to vote for flimsy reasons- how about restoring those rights?
@@SantomPh I'm sorry but it's that kind of thinking that has gotten the US in the state it is today. you are allowing the government to take away your rights in order to fight boogeymen they themselves have invented most of the time (see the Patriot Act). I'm not going to spend my time crying over career criminals going to jail by any means but whenever a law is instituted to curtail rights, it eventually filters down to everyone, not just the limited group of people it was initially intended for.
Also, the US already has one of the most draconian criminal systems in the developed world and that hasn't stopped you guys from also having one of the highest criminal rates in the world. Injustice breeds injustice.
@@methosimortal You think the mob and foreign terrorists are boogiemen ?
I like the music in your opening, Michael Franzese. It is a perfect piece of music. I’m learning so much from your channel. I like your story telling and the humble way you deliver information yet definitely are a confident man. 👍🙏
Thanks again Michael for your story. I really enjoy listening to you
Great video! Love learning about Carmine. Wish we knew more about his son!

Michael Franzese is a true inspiration and it should show anyone that you can change your life no matter how deep you are/were in the life of crime.
Thank you, Mr. Franzese! I always appreciate your videos! Take care, good sir!!
Another good one, Micheal. Thank you for the sit down.
The setting & lighting on this video are absolutely next level! Thank you for the great content as always
Gotta respect, Michael. He seems like the type of dude that would die for his family and definitely puts his family first. Anyways, keep the stories coming, Michael. I’m always thankful.
Always great videos. Thank you for your channel!!
Michael is a good speaker and a good presenter of these videos. I am very glad things seem to be working out for him
Brilliant episode Michael! Government over reach and lack of accountability is a serious issue, globally.
All the best!

I loooove listening to these stories!! So fascinating!! I grew up on long Island in the early 80s so I remember these times....such a crazy time it was then....as it is now again oddly enough (just in a different way this time) thank you for these very real and very personal stories Mr.Franzese!!
Same I was born late 70s I’ve Been on Long Island almost my whole life. Always wish I was Italian so I could’ve been a made man lol.
@@michaelfranzese Oh I am,I am!! I'm Sicilian,my family immigrated into Ellis Island many years ago,and lived in the city area (I forget if it was Queens or Brooklyn or somewhere else close) but never the less,like I said I grew up on long Island so that makes it even more fascinating,and then as I got older my mother passed down some of our own personal "family" stories as well,which was so crazy to learn about,so I guess in some way I feel a connection to these stories,knowing that older generations of my own family also were "involved" to some extent. I guess somethings werent ment to be talked about until I was older (if ever possibly?) But times have changed so that helps these stories come to light. Just so many amazing stories to learn about!! I didn't see the day,years ago where this would be happening and people in the life would be able to talk without the very real fear of immediate and totally life changing possible l consequences and violence,I'm glad things aren't so much that way anymore (I don't believe,or at the least its not the bloodbath it was those many years ago.) So glad to see you and your family are doing well,god bless and wishing good health and happiness to you and your family during this crazy pandemic!! And I can't wait to hear more from you!! And Sorry for the "book" of a message I sent!! I guess I had alot of things to say!!
Great stuff and I have to say well said at the end, brilliant.
I love the how he ends the videos it feels like he is talking directly at me
Never opened a notification so quickly 😅, I'm so grateful I found this channel.❤️
For some reason I never get the notification until it has been up for about 4 hours. I have watched and liked every video. Just don't know why it happens. At least I still get to watch them.
Its a good watch forsure. Still waiting for the day Mike and sammy talk
Definitely could listen to you all day long Michael!!!!!..love the way you tell these fascinating stories..Thanks for sharing ❤
I really enjoy your videos. Your turn around has been inspiring.
Keep up the good work. your videos are fascinating to me.
Always an amazing story! Thank you again and God bless you.
I've had similar experiences with my son being on trial for things he was accused of. Petty things for the most part, but still they ,the DA, went after him. In some cases, I'm sure they didn't really care if he was guilty or not,they just wanted a conviction.
Like recently, Binger and de Bruin.
I'd really like you to do a series on the "Innocent" in prison.
Me too. I’m a retired corrections employee, and I knew a couple of inmates who were wrongly convicted. One did 16 years and another did 11. Terrible injustice.
Nobody in prison is innocent, cmon!
@@cynomyS you sound like a naive 9 to 5 square suburbanite
Thanks for the informative show, Michael! You're a great person.❤

@@michaelfranzese Mr. Mike, can you talk about influence in the stock market?
I love your discussions Michael , found the bit about the government educational!!
I love all his videos. He doesn't sugar coat anything. He tells it like it is and how it was.
“The phone is a cop” man I love Sonny RIP he comes out with some nice words of wisdom
One of the best decisions I made on TH-cam was to watch an interview of yours with Patrick Bet-David and I’ve been a fan of yours ever since. Keep up the good work Michael!
Hey, that's how I got hooked! Had watched "The Godfather Saga" prior and the TH-cam algorithm kept putting up PBD interviews as recommendations. I finally watched the Gianni Russo one because it supposedly discussed how organized crime hated "The Godfather."
I was buying Mr. Russo's tall tales until he said he slept with Marilyn Monroe when he was 16. That's when I took my grain of salt.
But yeah, Patrick Bet-David still gets a visit from me. I have to brace for the hour-plus sit-downs, but they're all informative. And I did sit through the Sammy Gravano interview - twice.
That's why Franzese and Gravano are among my top five preferences. I've lost track of The History Guy and Lindybeige.
Good comment!
Great video. Great points you made in it.
I'm going through some old contest on this. Mike! They brought in the walkoff music like you were talking to long at the Oscars! Time's up! It's good to see you so worked up about government overreach, and you're 100% right. I lived in New Haven, CT when the SDNY lawyers came up to try a gang case in New Haven that was literally practice for using the RICO statues on Cosa Nostra. The prosecutors wanted a dress rehearsal before the big show, so they did in it New Haven. The defense attorney, who was a well known guy and a great attorney, after the trial said something like, 'You could convict a can of Coke for murder with these laws because the Coke was in the wrong house.' The RICO statues have become a stand in for just what you say, 'We know that guy committed some crime, so we'll just convict him for the general state of being a criminal.'
I feel like I am listening to a living legend glad that you turned your life around and found God
Michael do a video on irish affiliations with la casa nostra please, e.g. Jimmy Burke etc.
Frank Sheeran counts?
Dont forget The Westies.
Great advice and speaking on facts saying what needs to be said
Great as always good insight into the life very genuine
I think Sonny Franzese is the absolute model of what people think of when they think mobster, he is undeniably Italian, looks very serious and not to be messed with, and dressed very well. Very intimidating guy.
Michael is a disgrace..
@@niceguyjoe106 there is no grace in the mob in the first place, so as a Christian man he would now BE Graced
@Snake I don't know if my phone is off cue, or if someone erased my message. I will say it one more time. Michael was a disgrace in the eyes of his father! Nobody is afraid of him, which is an important trait in the mob. Just keep that jabber of yours shut from now on, because you just don't get it!
@@DastardlySnake From what I've heard Michael likes to dance around in women's underwear, when he is in the company of close friends..
@@niceguyjoe106 I knew the comments section would be fucking gold LMAO
Mr. Franzese can you talk about the interactions between the 5 families and the families outside of New York. I been listening to your videos for years now. No one really talks about the encounters and beefs and various sit downs between the families. I believe it would be a great episode and many people would tune in!
Michael you are a amazing guy I love your videos and your messages Glad to hear that you have moved on to living a new happy life with your family and not having to worry about what damage your doing not only to yourself but more importantly the people you love.. God Bless..⛪🙏🏼
Awesome video Michael!
Your Right Michael. Were seeing it now. I always said in the neighborhood mob guys dealt with each other and kept neighborhood safe. Politicians have done more to hurt us.A brother in Christ from Philly
True
I can see Michael Franzese becoming a household name in no time at all. The mans stories/experiences are legendary.
Most definitely. Plus Micheal has the charisma and brain smarts to entertain the masses. Not to forget all the housewife's flicking there bean over him every time he's on the screen lol
would love to see him in movies
Great video! Thanks!
Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!
Great piece to camera, heartfelt.
I actually gave Carmine a ‘car of mine’.. He changed his name shortly after.
Can you believe it?! Huhuhaha 😁

Are your fake choppers made of cocaine
Them words on the start sends ripples to those who try to do so,wow powerful
I first seen Michael on hotboxin with Mike tyson a couple weeks ago. I've watched many many hours of him since. Keep it comin
Really enjoyed this episode. As a history buff it is fascinating to hear about this culture "straight from the horses mouth" so-to-speak. I could not agree more on the issues of government power and overreach. I recently saw a quote from the economist Dr. Thomas Sowell - "There is nothing so permanent as a temporary government program" ( I had to laugh out loud when I read that one.) Wishing you and your family, peace, good-health, and prosperity.
i love ur swagger. i feel like you coulda been successful in the real world without being in the mob. you my friend just have that “it” factor
Exactly, people like him never and I mean never go without.
Mike would have been an excellent physician.
@EDWARD KALISPELL That is a fact, what's wrong with these guys? He's making a great living and enjoying himself doing it.
God speed Michael. Your testimony is a great inspiration. May God be with you always. I so much enjoy watching your videos.
Mike. Your killing it. God Bless !!!
