% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In this 19 August 2024 video, host Steven Bartlett talks with Michael Franzese, an American former mafia member who served as a caporegime in the Colombo crime family, and son of former underboss Sonny Franzese.

Michael Franzese was one of the most notorious mob bosses of the 80s. After 10 years in prison, this former “Prince of the Mafia” is now a man on a mission for the King of Kings. Michael’s amazing story and engaging delivery has brought record attendance to events all over the country.

Michael’s story is a modern-day Damascus Road experience, from his early days in the Mob and rise to power to being in prison and God leading him to do the unthinkable: quit the Mob and follow Jesus. In fact, Nobody of Franzese’s rank had ever just walked away – and lived. Until now.

He is the best-selling author of books such as, ‘Blood Covenant’ and ‘I’ll Make You an Offer You Can’t Refuse: Insider Business Tips from a Former Mob Boss’.

    Dear Mafia Boss (Former):

    No you weren’t running the “Biggest Scam In The World!”

    The Federal Reserve is the worlds largest scam in all of human history, and it’s fraud effects every single living thing on this planet.

    At $1.2 Million dollars per day,… the JEW thieves, liars and cheats that run the “Fed” won’t even bother getting out of bed for that paltry amount.

    The “Fed” coupled with that other con called wall street, rape and pillage to the tune of TRILLIONS per day.

    Let that little fact sink in….

    JD – US Marine: The “Mafia” Aren’t Even 4th Rate Amateurs Compared To The JEWS And The Financial Fraud They Commit Via “Central Banks” And Stock Markets!
