Once one of the most notorious figures in organized crime, Michael Franzese is now sounding the alarm about what he sees as a corrupt justice system targeting President Donald Trump while giving Joe Biden a pass.
Franzese, a former mob captain prosecuted by Rudy Giuliani and later imprisoned for racketeering, has reinvented himself as an author, speaker, and podcast host, and recently joined the Sean Hannity podcast to discuss the current political and legal climate, according to Gateway Pundit. He told Hannity he was stunned by the unprecedented lawfare deployed against President Trump, contrasting it sharply with the kid-glove treatment he believes Biden has received from federal authorities.
FRANZESE: I want to tell you two things, and this is meaningful. I want people to know this. He continued, All this warfare that they put againstlawfare they put against TrumpI never seen anything like that!
Drawing on his own experience under the RICO statute, Franzese argued that the evidence amassed by House Republicans against Biden and his family far exceeds what the government used to put him behind bars. And I want to tell you thisJoe Biden, the information that the GOP, when they did the investigation on him and his son he said, pointing to Between the suspicious bank accounts, the 27 or something million dollars that went through the account that nobodys ever answered for yet, the tex messages, the emails, the phone conversations
Sean, there was more evidence to indict him on a RICO statute than there was me, Franzese declared. Im telling you! I know that statute inside and out.
In another moment on the podcast, Franzese recalled that at the height of his criminal career he was delivering roughly two million dollars per week to his crime boss, underscoring the scale of the underworld economy he once helped run. In a separate clip, he described what happened when he became a made man in the mob, a reminder that such a parallel power structure operated in America for decadesraising uncomfortable questions about whether political corruption today is being pursued as aggressively as organized crime once was.
