YouTube Description
as posted by the channelEx-Mafia Capo Michael Franzese joins Sean Hannity to reveal how he ran a $10 billion gas tax scam and the shocking reason the FBI targeted his father, Sonny Franzese. From his "blood oath" ceremony to his analysis of modern political corruption, Franzese discusses it all.
In this episode of Hang Out with Sean Hannity, Michael Franzese breaks down the "Business of the Mob". He clarifies the reality of the Mafia's code of silence (Omertà) versus the Hollywood romanticism of The Godfather. Franzese shares never-before-told stories about his father’s alleged affair with Marilyn Monroe, which he claims sparked a personal vendetta from Bobby Kennedy and J. Edgar Hoover.
