President Joe Biden has thrown in with Harold Daggett, the Mafia-tied union boss pushing the longshoremen port strikes who makes over $900K a year and once fought Mafia-link allegations.
The International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) union port strike, threatens to heap disaster atop middle America in the immediate aftermath of a multi-state tropical storm which ended hundreds of lives and has caused billions of dollars of damage.
George Bush’s Department of Justice accused Daggett of being an “associate” of the Genovese crime family – one of the “Five Families” of the US Mafia In 2005.
Federal prosecutors charged Harold Daggett and a mafioso who with racketeering, along with Lawrence Ricci, then 60, who prosecutors said was an acting captain in the Genovese crime family.
The Longshoremen’s union’s executive vice president, Albert Cernadas, pleaded guilty earlier in 2005 to conspiracy to commit mail fraud, and also pleaded guilty to wire fraud.
The DOJ also filed extortion, conspiracy, and fraud charges against Daggett in a civil suit, under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
Ricci failed to appear in court for trial. Ricci’s body was later found dead in a car a month after the trial.
Daggett’s strike could cost the U.S. economy billions per day should it continue.
Discussion of the strike was notably avoided during last night’s Vice Presidential debate. So far Kamala Harris has remained silent on the issue.
Former President Donald Trump is blaming the strike on “the massive inflation that was created by the Harris-Biden regime,” according to Fox News.
The AP reports that “the 45,000 dockworkers who went on strike Tuesday for the first time in decades at 36 U.S. ports from Maine to Texas may wield the upper hand in their standoff with port operators over wages and the use of automation.”
Daggett, who, despite the suspicious death of his fellow co-defendant and mafioso, was somehow found not-guilty back in 2005, has been extremely flamboyant in his threats to the American public.
Daggett, sounding very much like a New York mafioso, nearly swore in a recent interview in which he threatened the American public with starvation and economic gridlock.
“Who’s gonna win here. In today’s world, I’ll cripple you. I’ll cripple ya. and you fu … have no idea what that means. Nobody does,” Daggett threatened.
“I WILL CRIPPLE you. And you (fu) have NO IDEA what that means.”
