1/ The mob developed in Sicily & Naples in the mid-1800s because the actual government was too weak to perform basic oversight duties. In the absence of regulations of any kind, folks turned to organized bands of thieves to settle disputes, offer protection, and mete out justice.

2/ So right off the bat, the conservative notion of "government being the problem" is both idiotic and historically wrong. We NEED governance. It can either be done by elected officials or by hoodlums. But it's a necessity.

MOB GROWS WHERE GOVERNMENT ISN’T.

3/ The quaint Italian mob depicted in GoodFellas, The Sopranos, and the Godfather films is NOT the mob of today. These outfits were absorbed by the Russian “Vor” in the 1990s, after the breakup of the Soviet Union. (I say “Russian,” but this is shorthand for former Soviet bloc).

4/ The head of the Russian mob today is Semion Mogilevich, aka The Brainy Don. He is Ukrainian by birth, Jewish enough to have acquired an Israeli passport, and currently a Russian national, living in Moscow.

He is the capo di tutti capi of the Vor. He is THE bad guy.

5/ Don Corleone is to Semion Mogilevich as Roy Raymond is to Leslie Wexner, or as McDonald the hamburger stand guy is to Ray Croc.

Mogilevich took the mob big time.

The Russian mob is more like SPECTRE than like GoodFellas.

6/ Putin is the public face of the operation. He lends an air of legitimacy to the operation, as he is nominally a head of state. But he is also a mobster. He and Mogilevich work like hand in glove.

Russia is a mafiya state, governed by mob rules—like Sicily in 1860.

7/ If you want to find the common link in every villain of the Trump/Russia universe, it’s this: MOB.

Whether this means the Russian “state” or the Vor, it’s all the same thing.

It’s all MOB.

8/ Obvious example: Michael Cohen and Felix Sater, childhood friends with long ties to the Russian mob.

Sater especially is a charming guy. Doesn’t erase who he is or where he came from.

9/ Less obvious example: in the 1980s, Mogilevich had a business partner named Robert Maxwell—a wealthy media magnate. Born in Czechoslovakia, Maxwell was a British national & an alleged Mossad agent (codename: Little Czech).

10/ Maxwell died in 1991 when he fell off his yacht. He was in quite a bit of legal & financial trouble at the time. His body was buried in state in Jerusalem, without an autopsy, so we don’t know if he was killed, killed himself, or just fell off the boat.

11/ Robert Maxwell had a daughter named Ghislaine. Her longtime boyfriend was—wait for it—Jeffrey Epstein.

This means that Epstein had a long & intimate relationship with the daughter of a business partner of Semion Mogilevich.

So: MOB.

12/ American politicians who are in deep with Russian IC agents? That’s a different side of the same mob coin. But it’s still MOB.

13/ Anyone who had extensive dealings with these three Russian spies is also implicated:

14/ The Russian mob trades in the heinous & the horrible. Human trafficking is a big operation for them. Opioids, too. Nuclear and chemical weapons. Blood diamonds. They will do ANYTHING for money.

And they have SO MUCH FUCKING MONEY that it requires armies to launder it all.

15/ That’s who Trump is. He’s a money launderer, one of countless mob money launderers the world over. He has been laundering mob money for decades.

Thus, the mob pwns him. Hence these sit-downs with Putin with no one on our side taking notes.
