Godfather Of Harlem .....check it out.

Check out our pal Evi's review at his excellent blog "Evil Blogger Lady."

I agree with most of his review except for the fact that he doesn't give Vincent D'Onofrioi his due as the Mafia's Vinnie the Chin Gigante.

They get some of the details right such as The Chin confessing to his brother who was a Catholic priest and politician who was actually elected to the City Council to run the  Mafia's business with the city. They make a big thing about Frank Costello working as a go between Chin and Bumpy Johnson. In fact the last time Costello saw the Chin was when he shot him in the head. The Chin was Vito Genovese driver and got the contract to put the hit on Costello who was a rival for power in the family that was originally controlled by Lucky Luciano. Subsequently they had no dealings. In fact Costello was officially retired and seldom left his apartment. He didn't influence Tammany Hall anymore. If the Mob wanted something in those days they went directly to Carmine Desapio who was in their pocket.

The other thing they screw up is the influence of Fat Tony Salerno who was the official boss much the way Junior was in the Soprano's with the Chin as the real "street" boss. He had to at least have a cameo and if anyone was to be approached as a go between with the other families it would be him not Costello.

Anyhoo I know a lot about the Mafia part and not so much about the black part. The only thing I do know is that the "Fruit of Islam" was just as tough as they show in the scenes with Malcom X. I know a couple of guys who hired them to be bouncers at various clubs in the city. Nobody fucked with them. That was some serious shit.

Check it out on EPIX or better yet the Amazon Firestick. As Evi says it is worth the look. As is Evi's excellent blog especially his continuing Rule 5 segments. Support our fellow bloggers!!!!

The God Emperor makes another mistake.....nobodies perfect.

Our friend and ace blogger the Evil Blogger Lady has a post up on his eponymous named blog about an unforced error by President Trump.

It seems that one of the 46 US attorneys that were required to resign was from the Southern District of New York in one Preet Bharara. Now Mr. Bharara is a pretty liberal guy who was recommended by Schumer and appointed by Obama. But he is a man of the highest integrity. He prosecuted Shelly Silver who was the head of the New York State Assembly and was the most powerful politician in New York for about two decades. Then he locked up Dean Skelos who was head of the Republicans in the State Senate. He goes after the crooks and lets the chips fall where they may.

Earlier in the transition President Trump met with Mr. Bharara and told him he wanted him to continue in his post. Of course that was when he thought that they were still going to go after Hillary. So maybe that changed their thinking. I just don't think so.

I think it was an oversight. Two other US attorneys were told that their resignations would not be accepted. It is standard practice in government to get an undated resignation letter for the file. US Attorneys are always fired when the an opposite party comes in. No biggee. I think that we will hear next week that President Trump wants him to continue. At least I hope that is the case.

In any event why not take this opportunity to check out Evi's blog. He is on the blogroll and it is easy to jump over there. He always has great stuff going on and could use some traffic and a few comments. I have been remiss in not commenting there more often and I will up my game. It can be tough to put up great post after great post and not get any comments. We need to support each other as best as we can. So stop by Evi and Chip and the other blogs on our blog roll and drop a comment or two.

Thanks.

Banned in Boston…..or at least on the Internet.

Anyone with a strong opinion who expresses it vociferously stands a good chance of being banned from some site on the internet. I bet most of us have been banned or deleted from somewhere because of something we have said. As I am sure you can guess I have been banned from quite a few joints.

Even douchnozzle #nevertrump morons understand the press are lying sacks of crap when they talk about Trump...why don't you get it?

Red State along with HotAir and Powerline are among the most Anti-Trump blogs on the internet. I was a fan...well until they banned me earlier in the year for being Pro-Trump because they are arrogant ignorant pussies. But I do go there occasionally to read our buddy Evil Blogger Lady who writes a diary there. I mean it is no Melania Trump's Diary but it is pretty good and I highly recommend you check it out.

So much to my surprise I see an actual fair post by the total #nevertrump knucklehead streiff who illustrates how the lying media is trying to sow discord among Trumps supporters and sabatoge his presidency. You know the way some people who post here are doing every day.

Trump, Climate Change And The Fake News Cartel

Posted at 5:00 pm on November 24, 2016 by streiff

"On Tuesday, Donald Trump met with New York Times reporters. During that meeting the subject of anthropogenic global warming came up. This is how the media reported the story.

The overall media take on the story was that Trump was backtracking on his campaign positions on climate change. In fact, based on the news coverage of the meeting, I followed suit. (You can find examples of how the meeting was spun here and here.) Now the transcript is out and it shows a remarkably different meeting than the one portrayed.
