On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, there was a major FBI bust of an illegal sports betting scheme involving four NBA teams (Charlotte Hornets, Portland Trail Blazers, Los Angeles Lakers, Toronto Raptors) and four mafia families (Bonanno, Gambino, Genovese, Lucchese), netting over $7 million. The NBA Has a problem, people need to have faith in the game. This is a massive blackeye for the NBA. Also, those who say ​that ​Israel ​will ​never ​annex ​the ​West Bank (Judea ​and ​Samaria), ​have ​no ​idea ​what's ​taking ​place ​in ​the ​West ​Bank. Israel ​will ​do ​whatever ​it ​chooses ​to ​do. The recent Knesset vote on annexation was initiated by the left to divide conservatives and the administration. If ​​Judea ​and ​Samaria ​don't ​belong ​to ​the ​Jews, ​who ​does ​it ​belong ​to? Shiloh's history proves Judea and Samaria as ancestral Jewish homeland is crucial to Judaism and Christianity. Later, Zohran Mamdani got his butt kicked at the NYC debate. He's a sloganeer, which is typical of Marxists, but he won't be substantive at all. Afterward, Obamacare is a lie focused on centralization and control rather than affordability, leading to loss of civil liberties, restricted benefits, and second-rate care where patients can't access desired doctors, hospitals, or medicines. It's just like socialist systems in Canada and Britain, from which people flee to the US for better care, yet Democrats aim to mimic them. Democrats caused the government shutdown to maintain and expand Obamacare subsidies and reinstate benefits for illegal aliens, refusing reforms and relying on media to blame Republicans, ultimately destroying Medicare, Medicaid, and employee insurance by inflating healthcare costs. Finally, a Daily Mail article predicts Christianity's decline as America's majority religion amid Islam's rise. U.S. was founded on tolerant Judeo-Christian values fused with Enlightenment, rejected by Marxists and Islamists. This ideological clash threatens free society's survival.

Genovese, Gambino, Bonnano, Colombo y Lucchese… Esta serie documental de tres episodios explora la creación, el auge y la caída de los grandes clanes mafiosos de Nueva York.

BT & Sal react live to the explosive FBI announcement detailing a "sweeping criminal enterprise" that includes the arrests of NBA coach Chauncey Billups and guard Terry Rozier, along with members of the Bonanno, Gambino, Genovese, and Lucchese crime families. The hosts slam the compromised integrity of sports, discussing how prop bets and high-tech rigged poker games were used to defraud millions. They call for "zero tolerance" from all leagues, comparing the scandal to the notorious Tim Donaghy incident, and question the wisdom of the NCAA's new rule allowing college athletes to bet on pro sports. The sheer scale of the fraud—involving wire fraud, extortion, and rigging games across eleven states—is dissected, leading to the devastating question: How many painful losses over the years were actually a fix?

According to reports, this person dressed in black and appeared near Epstein's homes, moving stealthily in a way that unnerved him. Epstein supposedly told others about the sightings, framing it as organized crime intimidation rather than random harassment, and presenting the “ninja” as part of a network of threats aimed at keeping him in line.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.the-sun.com/news/351095/jeffrey-epstein-mafia-mob-ninja-gambino/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

When Lenny Nebretski began his career with the New Jersey State Police in 1993, detectives tracked organized crime connections with yarn on corkboards and case files thick as phone books. Today, as a leader in law enforcement technology, he's helping transform policing with solutions that turn hours of investigation into seconds of analysis.This fascinating conversation tracks the evolution of police work through Lenny's unique perspective – from his early days as a road trooper patrolling the "city on wheels" of the New Jersey Turnpike, to specialized work in organized crime intelligence, to building real-time crime centers that give officers critical information before they arrive on scene.Lenny shares gripping stories from his investigations into loan shark operations tied to the Gambino crime family, offering a rare glimpse into the methodical detective work required before the digital age. The transition to his current role in the private sector highlights how former officers are bringing their field experience to technology development, creating tools specifically designed for the unique challenges of modern policing.The discussion explores how Real-Time Crime Centers and a Peregrine integrated data platform are serving as force multipliers for departments struggling with recruitment and retention, allowing them to accomplish more with fewer resources. Particularly compelling is the examination of how these technologies must balance powerful capabilities with robust privacy protections and civil liberties safeguards.Whether you're in law enforcement, interested in criminal justice technology, or simply fascinated by the intersection of policing and innovation, this episode offers valuable insights into how modern tools are helping officers serve their communities more effectively while maintaining the human connections that remain at the core of good policing.#police #lawenforcement #cops #policemonitor #policeoversight #policeoversightmonitor #bridgethegap #bethechange Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc

We explore the complexities of mob family structures across the U.S. and how Peter Clemente's fluency in Sicilian and understanding of criminal culture enriched FBI operations.

Now, Gary Clemente's dad was Peter Clemente, and he was one of the first members of the Top Hoodlum Squad in New York City and the first Sicilian FBI agent, I believe, that was assigned to the FBI anyhow. So, Gary, welcome. Thank you for having me back, Gary. Appreciate it. Long time no see. Yeah, really. Now, we talked about his investigation of Carlo Gambino before, and he was all over Carlo Gambino, and the Gambino squad even went down to Florida and ran some wires on him or hidden microphone down in Florida. Done. It was a pretty interesting story. So tell the guys a little bit, remind us a little bit about your father and what he was so unusual in that way. He was from Sicily, I believe, and spoke Sicilian, but was also attached to the Top Hoodlum Squad. So tell us about him. Exactly. Well, again, thanks for having me on, Gary.

Well, I can't do the time, so I don't really physically kill it. But anyhow, thank you. Well, my pop was Peter C. Clemente, and he was a special agent with the FBI from 1950 to 1976. And in the early part of his career, he was doing security background checks to see if people were trying to get positions in the federal government that were very sensitive and whether they were members of the Communist Party USA and the Socialist Workers Party. So then 1957 comes around and they have the Appalachian mob conclave with all the top mobsters that were there that got together. Many of the big shots were there. Gambino was there,

Scores: How I Opened the Hottest Strip Club in New York City, Was Extorted out of Millions by the Gambino Family, and Became One of the Most Successful Mafia Informants in FBI History A gay man who created New York's most notorious den of heterosexuality . . . an anxious, anything-but-hardboiled lawyer who became one of the most successful undercover mob informants in history. . . .In this hilarious and fascinating account, Michael Blutrich takes you inside star-studded 1990s New York, mafia sit-downs, and the witness protection program.Meet Michael D. Blutrich, founder of Scores, the hottest strip club in New York history. A resourceful lawyer at one of the city's most respected firms, Blutrich fell into the skin trade almost by accident, but it was his legal savvy that made Scores the first club in Manhattan to feature lap dances and enabled him to neatly sidestep a law requiring dancers to wear pasties by instead covering their nipples with latex paint. Soon Scores, the club Howard Stern called “like being in a candy shop,” was a home away from home for everyone from sports superstars and Oscar-winning actors to pop singers and political notables alike.The catch? The club was smack dab in John Gotti's territory, and the mafia wanted a piece of the action. The Gambino family doesn't take no for an answer . . . and neither, as it turns out, does the FBI. In his memoir, Blutrich recounts in detail how his beloved club became a hub for the mafia, and how he found himself caught up in an FBI investigation, sorely struggling to juggle roles of business owner and undercover spy.As his life spiraled out of control, Blutrich would face the loss of almost everything dear to him. But whether marching a line of topless strippers as human exhibits into a trial to save the club's liquor license or wearing wires to meetings with armed gangsters, he never lost his sense of humor or his nerve. In Scores, Blutrich finally tells all—from triumph to betrayal—in his own funny, self-deprecating voice.https://amzn.to/458SuJHBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, I pull back the veil on one of the most pivotal moments in John Gotti's rise through the ranks of the Gambino crime family—the 1973 murder of Jimmy McBratney. As a retired Kansas City Police Intelligence Unit detective, I bring a lawman's eye to the tangled web of revenge, power plays, and myth-making that surrounds this infamous hit. We start with the murky legend: that Gotti made his bones by taking out McBratney, earning Carlo Gambino's favor. But like many mob stories, the truth is far more layered. I examine the wave of underworld kidnappings gripping New York in the early '70s, led by Eddie Maloney and his gang, who impersonated cops to abduct mobsters for ransom. Caught in that chaos was Jimmy McBratney—an Irish tough guy with a soft side, a devoted father who hoped to leave the life behind. Through Maloney's own words, I draw a portrait of McBratney as more than a casualty of mob politics. We explore his role in the kidnapping racket, the deadly fallout from a botched grab, and the inevitable spiral toward vengeance that would seal his fate. This episode also delves into the mysterious death of Manny Gambino, nephew of the boss, and how his murder—whether linked to McBratney or not—helped fuel a narrative that demanded retribution. Was Gotti the hand of that justice? Or was the story reshaped later to burnish his legend? We follow the footsteps of NYPD Detective Raymond Taylor and the team that tracked Gotti down. Their investigation, pieced together from reluctant witnesses and underworld whispers, ultimately cracked open the case—and helped launch the myth of the "Teflon Don." In the end, this story is more than just a mob hit. It's a study in blurred lines—between law and lore, loyalty and survival. Through wiretaps, memoirs, and police reports, I unravel a tale that speaks to the human cost of life in the shadows—and the power of a story to outlive the truth.

Transcript [0:00] Well, hey guys, welcome back to the show. This is Gary Jenkins, [0:02] retired Kansas City Police Intelligence Unit detective. Well, I have a story about John Gotti and how he made his bones with the murder of Jimmy McBratney and that whole backstory behind that. It seems like with most mob stuff, there's two or three different stories about it. You know, we just have to go with people's memories, but yet mob guys will throw out different stories and, you know, in order to maybe throw the cops off or the agents off. And so you never really know exactly, but you just have to go to the sources of each of these stories and work it back from there. So I'm going to tell you these different stories, and you let me know what you think happened here. You know, the story is he made his bones by killing this Jimmy McBratney and got the respect of Carlo Gambino, which, you know, is mob lore now. Now, in the early 1970s, there was a series of kidnappings of New York City wise guys. and there's a book out there called tough guy the true story of crazy Eddie Maloney and this book Maloney. [1:05] Discusses in detail some of these kidnappings that he and his gang were involved with and Jimmy McBratney was part of this gang.
