What do DT and the mob family arrested last week have in common?
La Cosa Nostra.

La Cosa Nostra had a virtual monopoly on concrete in New York at the time Trump was adding his name to its skyline in the 1980s. And the mafia’s control over building supplies and labor unions meant that the crime families had a hand in most construction projects in Manhattan.

"As today's charges demonstrate, La Cosa Nostra remains alive and active in New York City, but so does our commitment to eradicate the mob's parasitic presence," said Acting U.S. Attorney Joon Kim. "The defendants allegedly used violence and threats of violence, as the mob always has, to make illegal money to enforce discipline in the ranks and to silence witnesses."
"Organized crime families believe their way of life is acceptable and continue to show through their criminal behavior that they don't plan to stop," said FBI Assistant Director William Sweeney. "Their crimes aren't victimless, and this case proves they're willing to use murder and many other violent tactics to enforce their dominance."
