“Michael Popok of Legal AF reports on the Fulton county sheriff department and judges opening and investigation along with the FBI to bring to justice the Trump followers who have doxxed and viciously attacked the 23 grand jurors who voted to indict Trump, as Trump stands by silently and does nothing.”
“Criminal defendant Donald Trump was warned by a federal judge against making “inflammatory statements” but he continues to attack prosecutors and judges. The New York Times reports that "some lawyers have said that if Trump were an ordinary citizen issuing these attacks, he would be in jail by now.” Nicolle Wallace is joined by former FBI veteran Frank Figliuzzi, former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff Miles Taylor and Democratic Strategist Basil Smikle who talk about Trump and allies being an alleged “criminal enterprise.”
The Trump Republican Party uses decentralized actors for intimidation & murder. Trump makes a veiled threat and his followers act on it. Much like the Camorra of the Campania region of Italy uses seemingly unconnected youth to do its intimidation and murder.
According to Roberto Saviano, author of "Gomorrah: Italy's Other Mafia," the Camorra has historically been more decentralized than the Sicilian Mafia, with individual clans operating autonomously. This decentralization has allowed the Camorra to adapt to changing circumstances and maintain its power and influence over the years.

There is a new addition.
"The Structure of the Camorra
The Camorra's organizational structure is complex and fluid, with individual clans operating independently while maintaining ties to other clans. Each clan is headed by a "boss," who is responsible for making key decisions and allocating resources. The boss is surrounded by a network of subordinates who carry out the boss's orders and help to maintain control over their territory. Women have also played a significant role in the Camorra, often acting as intermediaries between different clans or performing administrative tasks.
The Camorra and Politics
The Camorra's influence extends to Italian politics at all levels, from local to national. According to Behan, the Camorra has historically engaged in vote-buying, intimidation, and other forms of corruption to secure political power and influence decision-making. The Camorra's involvement in politics has also extended to the judiciary, with judges and prosecutors being targeted for assassination or intimidation. The "Clean Hands" investigation in the 1990s was a significant turning point in the fight against political corruption, resulting in the arrest of hundreds of politicians and businesspeople.

"Hospital of the mafia?
According to claims from the Local Antimafia Directorate (DDA), one alleged arm of the Contini clan and one member in particular, who “worked” as a hospital porter, was apparently able to exert influence and interfere in decisions and projects across the hospital. It is suggested that his reputation, and the alleged presence of other clan members working in various roles, allowed the Camorra in effect to take over the running of a medical institution.
The clan allegedly used the hospital as its social headquarters - a safe haven - and a meeting place for Camorra summits, and as a location for the exchange of extortion money and loan repayments. It is even said to have controlled the system of medical visits and operations, gaining favours from doctors (including signing false medical certificates and looking after injured clan members) and special access to medical treatment bypassing the normal bureaucratic channels and waiting lists.
Moreover, according to the DDA, the private company that managed the ambulances was allegedly close to the clan, apparently enabling it to manage comings and goings to the hospital as well as make a healthy profit. For example, the clan allegedly exploited the desire for people to have their deceased loved ones taken home, charging €400-500 per journey cash in hand.
It was also said to be able to influence decisions involving the distribution of public contracts for hospital services, in particular, prosecutors allege, the cleaning contract which their company won with its members as employees, or the hospital canteen being run by a Camorra company.
If proved in court, these allegations represent the true colonisation of a public space by a traditional mafia – a shocking example of how the Camorra continues to infiltrate all aspects of life in the city."
