It wasnt a mafia plot. It was a CIA plot that used the mafia for some key parts of the plot.
Exactly...
The Mob wasn't powerful enough to take out JFK (and get away with it). Otherwise a communist hippie named Castro wouldn't have stolen their casinos and kicked them out of Cuba!
The CIA had been using Mafia hitmen to try and kill the Castro brothers since before the Cuban Revolution. The Kennedy brothers had a coup planned for December 1, 1963 to kill the Castro brothers, make it look like the Soviets did it, and the Cuban people would run the Soviets out of Cuba. The plan was called “Amworld”. Only a few members of Kennedy’s cabinet, the Joint Chiefs of Staff knew of the plot. However, CIA operatives in the Panama City, Panama and, Miami offices leaked the coup plan to their Mafia gunmen. The gunmen, in turn, informed Marcello, Giancana, Roselli, and Trafficante. RFK had deported Marcello and thus, Marcello swore a vendetta on the Kennedys. They knew that once the government found out about the coup plans after the murder of JFK that it would have to be concealed because once the Soviet Union found out it would plunge America into war with the USSR. It was reported that when Marcello was asked what he was going to do about the Kennedys; was he going to hit RFK, that he replied, “If you want to silence a barking dog you cut off the head, not the tail.” Bear in mind that Marcello was the most powerful Godfather in the United States. In fact, he was the ONLY one that did not have to go before the Sicilian Committee to obtain permission for a hit.
correct. Michael is half-right
Really...I wonder if you know where the kennedy fortune came from?
He is a criminal and he doesn't know anything. He is being rewarded for being a criminal that hurt people.
I believe that there's alot more to the JFK assassination then the Warren commission says and the fact that the federal government is still shielding documents that could shed light on what really happened speaks volumes.
Why did John Jr call biden a traitor? Infographics new video mentions 2 Oswalds. Why did a young biden look so much like oswald?
You should watch 'The Men Who Killed Kennedy'. It's free on CZcams and it's over 7 hrs long. You'll learn quite a bit. There's a ton the Warren Commission hid from the public, along with many other people.
Franzese is a government agent. There are videos from the zapruder film that are not shaky and you can see everything.
Jfk was killed by the illuminati. He spoke out. And when you speak out. They kill you. His speech where he said we live in a world of conspiracy. That speech Is what got him killed. If you knkw anything about illuminati. They don't forget and don't show no mercy. Also they're very good at asking things look like they're not.
The cia was going to get dismantled, and they took him out…
Not a crazy theory. Keep in mind while the police was transporting LHO, Jack Ruby ran up and shot him dead with LHO still in cuffs. Ruby did a lot of business with the mob and for him to throw everything away and risk going to prison by shooting him in the open in front of everyone says a lot. That’s a man hired to keep him from talking at all costs.
So very well said, great comment
It would have taken some sort of power to manipulate and control the Secret Service. Seconds before the shots fired you see one secret service agent call off the other. There were many powerful parties involved, not just the mob.
100
Actually the agent calling off moment was in a different location to the assassination. Still, the Mob were certainly involved.

It didn't help that the Secret Service were out getting drunk the night before and were severely hung over.
I do not believe the FBI or Lyndon Johnson had anything to do with it.
There were two crimes on November 22nd. One was the assasination of the President which I believe was the mob.
The second was to cover it up which I believe had many players trying to cover their a**.
jfk had no protection. the fix was in !
The Mob may have been involved but to allow the change security and what not the CIA and FBI had to be the main instigators, something this guy failed to mention
When the truth about kennedys death truely comes to light then it will be revealed in full deal tail what happened to and where is jimmy hoffa.
The mob was definitely involved, Michael is speaking from his side. But the hit was organized by some people in the ranks of the CIA. There should be no question about that now. The least it can be said, if somebody doesn't want to believe the CIA would do that to a U.S. president, is that the CIA's many attempts against Castro (with JFK's approval), backfired.
CIA and Mafia conspiracy
The CIA used the mob for hits within the US. It's not like he's going to read through a list of everyone he worked with is he!
Probably intentionally didn't mention a lot.
The problem with society is putting men like this on a pedestal after a life of crime as if he were a hero.
The truth can be more valuable than a prison sentence for one guy.
The real criminals are the politicians we vote into power & we let them get away with it. Look at cities like Philadelphia, the mob use to control things there now the government took over & it’s a cesspool. At least the mafia maintained law & order in the streets
He's risking his very life touring and talking about the mob, telling America the truth we need to be aware of.
Like Jordan Belfort
Yet the government runs free and wants to act like the good guys...
In answering those popular questions about his Mob life (did he kill someone, etc.), Franzese reveals more by what he doesn't say than what he does. He always responds with broad, generalized non-answers and goes on a spiel about "doing what had to be done," or something to that effect. If it didn't happen, he could honestly deny it, and that would be the end of it. I get his reasoning, though. It's one thing to know where most (if not all) of the bodies are buried. It's entirely another to know that you're the one who buried them. In the end, I understand his reluctance when fielding those questions. If I had a history like his, I don't think I'd want all of that to come back and haunt me. The legal ramifications alone would ruin my new life and the reputation I'd built since then. Either way, I wish Mr. Franzese the best of luck in his new life and may he continue to prosper. 😎👍
I met Mike in nyc though a college girlfriend- he did a lot of bad stuff but is a real smart guy
I'm sure he is fully aware that law enforcement are listening to his podcasts, interviews, etc.
He says those broad answers only because it doesn’t directly incriminate him.
Since he was a member after a certain date, he likely had to "make his bones" to join... and by that point it often meant a direct contract, not as in the past where you were in a crew that did a contract (even driver got credit). He will continue to be vague, even if they made him shoot somebody who really had it coming.
You just don't talk. Simple. Boast and you will be permanently zipped.🤐
Michael Franzese was not Mob Boss. He was a Capo of his crew while his father, John "Sonny" Franzese was Under Boss. Sonny was serving 50 years prison term. He finally paroled before his death. Soony didn't want Michael be part of that life. Michael went to medical school to become a doctor. But his father went to prison changed those plans. Michael came back home to support his mom and siblings. Michael stated that he was involved in mostly scams. Woman and turn to Christian Life help Michael away from his past. Michael talks about some of his former life on his channel. But he still keeps his Omerta Oath on certain things. So, his former family or others would not harm him.
I follow Michael page and missed this episode as I do watch Jeremy vine
Mate the mob might have been involved but no way they has access to the security detail of JFK to be lax for the assignation , both were involved
what a load of crap
“Just when I thought I was out, they PULL me back in….”.******
It was a CIA hit for sure. Allan Dulles's benefactor Gen Ed Lansdale was photographed in Dealey plaza in front of the "3 tramps" minutes after the assassination. Gen Ed Lansdale was the man who wrote the book on Special Operations for the US army. A paragraph from one of Lansdale's books called "the assassinations manual for Latin America" states "If possible professional criminals will be hired to carry out specific, selective "jobs" " "Jobs" means Murders. This is the exact same technique that was applied to JFK's murder.
@@bobmcrae5751 Really, so could the Mob destroy the autopsy documents, Could be mob get the FBI and Dallas police dept to participate in the cover up, Could the mob get the parade route changed, could the mob do the shooting when all the mob ever used was a .38 for hits up close, cluld the mob change the photos of the autopsy. 38 emergency doctors in Parkland who saw Kennedy saw not one of those photos were accurate. Could the mob do that?
Just to be clear (and I'm sure someone else has already pointed this out in the comments) MIchael was never a boss. He rose to the rank of Caporegime (Captain) and was the "boss" of a street crew, but was never the boss of a family.
guys saying who killed JFK, a question as big as Did we go to the moon, and it just gets brushed off, a sad society We live in
My dad always said it was Mafia an we know now it was Mafia LBJ covered up by secret service an Dallas police
Michael franzese is a liar
Not many have the presence and calm persona Michae Franchese has. He is one knowledgeable, switched on guy who has seen things we only read about.
Just because someone can present a calm persona doesn’t mean that he is telling the truth or that he is knowledgeable… If people only rely on his “knowledge” and stories, then you will be fooled very easily. Yes he is well spoken and calm, but most inside knowledge goes to the grave. This is truth in the most syndicates worldwide… In the case of JFK i would suggest you look at the documented facts… Oswald was captured for the crime but was silenced by Jack Ruby. Ruby very quickly after that… That should be enough information to get you on track. There was a big mutual interest from the CIA and the Maffia to eliminate JFK, that is 100% sure…..
Michael one of the most amazing guys alive.... Love everything about him can't wait to meet him In Edinburgh.
No he isn’t haha cmon lad all his schemes were off fraud same as this christian thing. His new ‘racket’ is youtube 😂 there’s thousands of people like you paying him whatever per month plus the money from videos etc. He’s smart now and knows a crime free life is an easy life simple as .

Great interview Mr. F.

If you close your eyes, he sounds a lot like Robert DeNiro
Love michaels channel great to see him on our tv.xx💙🙏🏽🇬🇧❤️
Shame he has to go on Jeremy vine
Bro literally asked him if he murdered someone and thought he’d answer it
I can’t believe media are glamorizing this criminal.
He's reformed.
@@bertrandlewis4906He's a coward and a criminal
They’re not “glamourising” it, he speaks out against it all the time and how difficult it was to leave it - like leaving a cult.
former criminal.
well he shouldn't have joined then should he@@henzohewson
Love listening to Michael. He does have a "poker face" but I'm sure he could look at you and there would no doubt at all that you had had crossed a line somehow.
You should've seen him get angry with Sammy "the Bull". He lost his composure. He was fuming mad. Wouldn't expect it from him, but we're all human. It was because Sammy, who was a rat, his confession got a lot of guys put away, tried to say to Michael that he was also a rat. Michael did confess, that's why he only got 10 years. With what they had on him he should still be in prision. But as Michael says it, his testimonial never lead to anyone going to jail. He was careful what he said.
@@MrWaterlionmonkey First time he scared me was the Gambling video he did for NCAA while in prison. The athlete he said would want out and Michael said "no your not out till I say your out. Then your in trouble". Straight face. Scary.

I saw an interesting documentary a while back that was strong on the theory that it was a classic fly-in, fly-out mafia hit. They suggested a group of three (I think) flew in from Italy. They claimed it was very possible that one of the shots came from a storm water drain on the side road that has been overlooked. The pipe was large enough for someone to travel down it and then escape undetected.
No person leaves Mafia follows till one's Grave taking all the dark secrets
Michael,we’re all like mob guys these days,we all have to watch ourselves shopping,anywhere.
Don't be scared. Be cautious.
New subscriber
He shows us a world where thankfully most if not all of us will never be involved in.
When he says it was a “mob hit” he means the FBI
That's amazing you have the inside track. There are a lot of people would love to speak to you!
No lol if anything the CIA
CIA
He means the mob acted out the hit that was given to them by the FBI and/or CIA.
The Mob had the only motive to kill Both Kennedys
This guy took an oath to keep silence and broke that oath and put his story online for everyone to see .... I give it to him he never incriminate anyone or himself ....... respectfully gotti ruined it ..i know people say Sammy but they where gunna hit em and saw it as chess and he won... but in lame man's terms if you don't hear anything about them there doing there job ....john gotti was signing autographs hanging with celebrities he was the one who made it surface for the world to see with his fur coats and cars which gave mayor Rudy cause to go after them plus he was deling coke and herion and killed his own boss for the seat because castellano knew he was dealing drugs ..what he was doing which is a huge no no the godfather callled this when vito says simple vices like women alchol gambling most cop politions would turn there back on but drugs is a a whole diffrent game and he says yes its good money but he will loose all the back up he had...gotti made it hot so hot gulanni made it his mission to cut the snakes head off and as sammy says we played chess he lost hes alive and gottii died in jail
Punctuation would be good.

Amazing how he’s allowed to travel, with him being an ex federal prisoner. Amazing
That's an interesting point!
It’s called having money
Good
@@ricandro1354 bro no it doesnt means your a rat
"Ex federal prisoner" means do time, pay your debt to society, and then be free. How is that amazing? Do you even know how long he was in jail or the length of time on probation or parole?
If anything they only did some contact work, they didn’t run the operation
The life sounds like hell.
Better a little with righteousness
than much gain with injustice.
Woody Haroldson’s Father,a Texas Hitman,on the JFK,and hear Hoffa stories of being buried in Korhonson N.Y.
Jesse Ventura corroborates Woody Harrelson's dad
If he says it was a mob hit I would say it’s true he’s a stand up guy Michael is the top of the foam In the mafia no doubt!
Ruby involved = Mob involved
"I'll be honest with you," meaning he has not been honest with you "at times"?
No this is expression it's more mean that he will not lie to you at all. Not that he does lie. He just wants you to know that he's going to tell you 100% the truth right there and then
Nobody saw oswald shoot anybody....
Does Franzese go more into the "back story" about JFK and Ruby elsewhere that he alludes to here?
I love everything about Mr. Franzese. I wish i could meet him and have a sit down!
Everyone always tryin to trip Mike up on the murder question 🤣🤣. You can't outwit Capo Franzese on this one people.
If we don't know 60 years later, we never will. And even if we did, nobody is around to prosecute.
The version I believe was Charlie Nicoletti, Johnny Roselli, and James Files were in Dallas Nov 22, 1963. Files was ex-military special ops CIA mission man and Chicago outfit enforcer. Files had his picture taken by Oswald, who showed him around Dallas before the assassination, which puts him there at that time. I believe Files used a Remington Fireball, given to him by his handler David Atlee Phillips, with a mercury round to shoot Kennedy from the grassy knoll. He had the training, the associations, and his knowledge of Dallas and Dealey Plaza and the pertinent players, are remarkable. I'm sickened by the media's laughable insistence that Oswald did it. L Fletcher Prouty of the CIA said it was a professional hit and that Oswald was a patsy. Prouty was in Antarctica on CIA assignment to keep him out of the loop and knew something was up the day after the assassination when he already saw Oswald's picture in an Australian newspaper. Oswald was at the 2nd floor lunchroom of the Schoolbook Depository the whole time. Oswald made it to the Texas Theater hoping to rondezvous with David Atlee Phillips, also his handler, but he was double crossed. Oswald spoke fluent Russian and served as a radar operator at Atsugi Naval Base. They didn't assign dummies to Atsugi and Oswald was no dummy. His military file contains treatment for an STD, but there's a notation, "service connected, non-disciplinary" as he likely contracted VD while gathering intel from Japanese prostitutes with Communist ties.
Not everybody saw the file interview in Statesville prison. Your totally correct. Sounds like they got to joe west, his first interviewer.
Yes!
Yes I saw the original interviews a few years back before they were taken down. I thought they were trying to sell it in dvd or through his speaking tours. I think James files is going around speaking on it now and or selling the interview. I know I’ve seen a few recent videos where he is out of prison promoting the story.
Sickened, huh?.. OK.. Tell me why Oswald murdered a cop, then?.. And don’t say he didn’t, because all he did after that was act about as guilty as he possibly could..
Why?..
@@jacobjones5269 it's really ..lazy of you to believe the....official version...why you ask? Why don't you exercise a little intellectual ambition...
This story is decades old
I heard Michael had opened up a restaurant in Newport Beach, Ca
Hello Diane, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
You got the best poker face! That be the botox luv!
Mind blown
I have a late cousin who was fairly well acquainted with Jack Ruby. And that is the sum and substance of my disclosure on that. Interesting back story, though.
Lots of new technology out there these days. 😐
Thank you for the misleading title I didn't hear anything about JFK?
Who’s here after Mafia 3 ?
how is this man a good looking dude at 70?
Handsome esp when he was younger, smart man.
Of all the shows Michael F chooses to go on it's f Jeremy Vine .. !
Nah... Seems he's breaking the very rules he said would get him whacked.
While he is calm in his demeanor and has inside information, I would beg to differ on his claim. A friend of mine who was a county sheriff and I watched a documentary of the assassination and when it came to the scene of the fatal head shot, he put it on pause and said "that was a military style hit". I asked why he thought so and he said "because they used rifles. Mob hits are up close".
Your buddy’s partly right. The mob used the CIA trained anti-Castro Cuban exiles to pull it off. Pull up the video “JFK Second Gunman Named” from “The Telegraph”. About a 5 min video on CZcams.
Could it be because Lee Harvey Oswald was a former marine?
Santo Trafficante and Carlo Marcello. Jack Ruby had very close connections to these two men.
“God tells you to use your head and not be stupid” to every wannabe that things iron balls means anything. What’s good about it if you’re gone?
However this contradicts the coroner that stated the bullet come from the front and exited the back of of his head
Something about all of this dont add up..
The guy actually stated this before his death
Sounds as plausible as any other theory. Some things we are likely never to know about.
You got some gig Michael. Good move.
Bull . That was a military coup
😂 this guys just looking for screen time. It was the CIA, another kind of mafia much bigger and more impressive than his version of organized crime.
Actually you both are right. The cia set it up and orchestrated it and the mafia/mob carried the hit out. I can send you unclassified government files literally proving both the mob and cia was involved. JFK got shot at in Chicago a month before he was actually killed, who was running Chicago in the 60s? The mob. The mob sent jack ruby (a mafia member) to kill Lee Harvey Oswald while he was in police custody. Why? Because the mob didn’t want him to talk.
I’m sure he does want screen time but the mob was 100% involved and everybody who’s studied the JFK situation knows that
Ready American Tabloid by James Elmore
Why is he being called a boss? He was a a Capo. The most that he commanded was his own crew. Secondly, the only reasons that I can figure that they haven't come for him is respect for his father, he didn't and hasn't harmed other members (as he says), and it's not the same Cosa Nostra.
A Capo also known as a street BOSS.
This is why people call him a boss, he was never a Don but he was a "Boss"
Jeffrey in Michael’s time a capo was very powerful. They commanded a crew of 6- 10 made guys. Each made guy had his own crew of 8-10 associates. So at any given time 1 capo commanded a crew of 50-100 guys. They were heavyweights without a doubt.
You know there's more than one type of boss in the mob, right?
My understanding of "boss" is the Don. If anything, this is just semantics. Lastly, everything that I have ever heard regarding that life, a capo was never even a street boss. It's always been an underboss. In my mind, the only way a capo could have such a title as even street boss is if there was no higher available for some reason. None of this is a slight, just stating all that I ever read or seen in a documentary.
I never knew Mike was a boss.
Carlos Marcello, the mob boss of New Orleans, told a fellow inmate in a federal prison that he had ordered the hit on JFK.
Maffy-uhh!
I believe in God, but God doesn't tell u to be stupid.
Jfk was killed with more than one gun ,the mob were involved, for sure ,
James files and Charles Nicollet to pulled the triggers on jfk..check out I killed kennedy..........
Boss?
no...capo.
It was not a mob hit!
Ridiculous. No mob hit
Jackie did the messy headshot 100 percent
He was probably so pretty when he was younger.
This Mafia boss..An American hero
Alot of unanswered questions about the Assassination but we can confirm that it was NOT a mafia hit.
Look...it's Mr Four Stories.
It was LHO and LHO alone. Read Gerald Posner’s book Case Closed.
Orders from Johnson!
Hello Vonnie, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
I will NEVER believe it was a mob hit. They might have been involved somewhere, but it was not a mob hit man. Who could have done it? Plus there were multiple shooters. It would have required at least 3 master snipers. Contrary to movies like The Professional, mob hit men that are snipers are rare if they even exist at all. They would have to have experience. Most likely military history as a sniper. So the feds would know exactly who would be capable of such hard to make shots. If there were any mobster with that type of history, they would have him under a magnifying glass constantly. There is zero doubt that the ONLY people that could have made the shots and covered it up are the CIA. I have always said that and will stick to it until absolutely proven otherwise.
There were multiple shooters and the mob was most definitely involved along with the CIA and a group of Cuban exiles. You forget, there were plenty of made guys who were ex-military in the mob.
@@deltawhiskey1398 Just ex military doesn't matter. As I said, it would HAVE TO BE an ex military SNIPER! And the best of the best at that. I know an ex marine sniper. He couldn't take a shot like that. Not just any infantryman could do it of course either. Perhaps you haven't seen some of the documentaries that showed what it would take to pull off the shots? The CIA would NEVER rely on mobsters to take those shots. Sorry, but that's just fantasy thinking and isn't realistic. As stated, there were at least 3 people involved. That's 3 professional does it for a living snipers. And if the mob had people like that, who are they??? We can't pretend there is some fantasy members that we don't know about. Guys like that would be known by everyone especially the feds. Also, why didn't they kill anyone else? I'm not aware of sniper scenarios being done to other mobs it's always up close and personal. Unless you can provide me with a list of possible candidates by name, it is just fantasy thinking. People want everyone including the mob and bigfoot involved because it makes for a fantastic story. But in reality, it is almost always much simpler. Don't forget also that they fewer people involved, the better. Only a fool gets multiple groups involved and has to depend on so many moving parts.

A CIA-MOB hit.
This man stole hundreds of millions, saw death too much, probably killed too to prove himself worthy etc.... everyone smiling as if hes elvis or something. Michael does seem very nice guy tho
He’s a sociopath, and a pretty good one at that.
He was never ever a mafia boss ever
I think is was joint effort between CIA and mob, as they have no problem working together.
