He's been doing it for years, he'll usually bring up the same old routine without being asked if he's in front of a camera for long enough.

@@donvitocascioferro4040he’s answered this before. His money is in a lockbox in Europe. The lock box requires two keys to open it. He has one of the keys and his partner that came up with the gas scheme had the other key. His partner eventually died so he’s not sure where the key is. He’s also not sure if the US government confiscated the cash during his time in prison. Either way he can never get to it anymore

It was NOT anywhere near every week & he had to split that money with A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE. When people talk about money and the Mafia, I noticed that there are always huge misleading references and HUGE exaggerations. LOL

@CruzCGK 2 ай бұрын

He said at the height it was that, and it was proven by the government. Also he didn’t really have to split it much other than 1/4 to the boss and probably kept a quarter of it himself

And if the government found he was doing that much you know he was getting more that they didn't catch.@@CruzCGK

I used to enjoy his videos, were really interested about his history in the mafia but he got way too right wing and political. And that’s fine if you want to do that, but when Trump was in office and doing some pretty questionable things he said he was being asked about his views but didn’t want to bring politics into his channel. Even around the 6th of Jan thing really. But then low and behold when it’s the Democrats in power he can’t stop going after them on his videos and how they’re ruining America. Just seemed very disingenuous
