      Chicago did not function like NY.
      Accardo did not have Carlo Gambino like power for 50 straight years. He was always an influential figure, but he wasn't the undisputed boss of Chicago for 50 years, nor did he weild a NY boss like power for multiple decades.
      He was always influential but his actual power level waxed and waned over the decades. He was the boss in the late 40s and early 50s....and again was a top figure in the 70s after the Cicero crew overtook the Taylor Street crew as the top crew in Chicago.

      The Chicago Outfit became the dominant crime family in the US west. They had their hands in Hollywood deeper than any NY family, and they were the dominant crime family running things in Las Vegas. The Outfit was extremely powerful In it's heydey.
      When the CIA decided to co-op the Mafia with its plan to assassinate Castro they had their emissary, Robert Mayhew(an FBI agent working on contract for the CIA), contact Johnny Roselli a old school Mafioso affiliated with the Outfit and the derided LA crime family who represented Sam Giancana in negotiations with the CIA. Basically, the CIA went to the Outfit instead of any NY family to have the Mafia do its dirty work in Cuba. Only half-hearted attempts on Castro's life were made and they failed. But the fact that the Outfit was enlisted rather than the Genovese or Gambino family or the other three(at the time) NY families speaks to the overall reach and power of the Outfit at the time.

      Giancana and Accardo were both "bosses." But Sam was the boss of the Taylor St crew, and Accardo was a Cicero guy.
      During the 50s and 60's, Taylor St was the more influential crew, so he was the top boss in the Outfit.

      That's not really true. There's so much misinfo about the Chicago mob bc people compare it to NY....It had a different structure.
      Accardo and Giancana were both "bosses". In this case, a boss was roughly the equivalent to capo in NY. But Giancana was the top boss in the Taylor St crew. Accardo was a top boss in the Cicero crew.
      Taylor St was the more powerful crew in the 50s and 60s, so in effect Giancana was the top boss in the Chicago mob during that time period.
      Accardo was always a powerful figure, but he did not outrank or have more power than Giancana during the 50s and 60s.
      This idea that Accardo held Carlo Gambino like power for 50 years just isn't true. Again, the Outfit didn't function like NY.
      Giancana was not a puppet boss.

      You're certainly right about Accardo and include Ricca on that. Anastasia was deadly but found to be lacking in good judgment.

    Sam Giancana saw the entire thing as something to be dealt with since he was one of many who were called to testify before the US Congress "United States Senate Select Committee on Improper Activities in Labor and Management Racketeering Committee" in 1959. A thorn in his side - of course. People like Giancana make their fortunes and commit their crimes quietly and any kind of publicity about "alleged activities" isn't good for business. Everybody knows that any business hates any kind of "bad" publicity. But he knew it was in his best interest to do whatever he had to do in order to "keep his cool" and just let RFK do all the "your government in action" public grandstanding as well as write his own hit contract. I grew up in a relatively prosperous Mob infested small industrial city right on the US / Canadian border that is a major worldwide tourist destination and in places like that you either don't acknowledge or let on that you know what's obviously rampant exists, you don't talk about it with anybody, you punch the time clock in the factory where you work every day and pay your union dues, and you keep your nose clean by not asking questions. Given that without the Mob effort through fixed labor unions, there's a good chance that JFK would not have been elected in 1960; and then with that came RFK strike two: an even more zealous clamp-down on organized crime when RFK became Attorney General of the US, and RFK's intent to break the mob just got more intense, well into the mid-1960's.
    While it's not for me to decide how much of the Kennedy fortune made by RFK's father was made by way of illegal (mob) racketeering (I.E. bootlegging during the Prohibition Era), there's no doubt that if Joe Kennedy, Sr. called in a few favors around the country to help get his son Jack into the White House in 1960, then RFK's zealous idealistic prosecution of the mob had to have been a stab in the back of Giancana and others like him. As it was, of the Kennedy sons, RFK was the more idealistic than his older brothers and RFK was more of being a moral crusader than pragmatic status-quo realist. The third strike against him, was the failed Anti-Castro "Bay of Pigs" fiasco that totally exposed how deeply the Mob was in bed with the FBI and CIA and embarrassed them and the entire US government AKA the JFK Administration by it.
    It's not exactly ironic that JFK and RFK were taken care of, in due time of course. People like Giancana know that sometimes you just have to keep your cool and play the long game, and take care of business the old-fashioned way. Those kinds of sociopaths know that Rule #1 is keeping your cool and being quietly amused, (at least outwardly), when your opponent is making headlines by publicly belittling you, especially in the halls of the US Congress. Rule # 2 is always use guys you can trust that you also know can get the job done when it's time to pull a trigger or two and Rule # 3 is to make sure there's always a patsy that's been groomed probably unknowingly, (I.E., an Oswald) to take the fall for it. After all, what the public wants is justice; the only thing any 99.9% of courts want are people they can convict whether they're actually guilty or not.

    Wisconsin is so Catholic it is home to the Friday night fish fry since the 1930s at least. Whoever wrote the script the narrator read has no idea about Wisconsin being the home to the Catholic fish fry, every bar in the small towns served a Friday fish fry.

      Wisconsin Lutherans also had Friday fish dinners. They were called "Fish Boils" along with broiled fish Dinners. Wisconsin Catholics were NOT the only ones making Friday fish fry's or fish dinners. Catholics are NOT the only Christian religion in Wisconsin or the world. Heaven isn't populated only with Catholics. Read the Bible instead of reading Catholic hocus pocus "holy water" propaganda.

      Lord know. Each week there is approximately 50-60 shootings in Chicongo with at least 20 killed. Illinois is probably one of the most corrupt states in the nation. Chicongo runs all of Illinois. We in down state just follow Durbin and Blitzer around like little sheep.
