staff we now know fled that paper in the wake of its turn towards supporting trump, and it may or may not be related but we are also watching them lose a ton of reporting fire power from the news side. now that we know that they spiked a second followup editorial piece on trump and his mafia ties after that really good first one, i'm curious to know what was in that piece that they spiked and never ran. most mafia-related stories about donald trump feature some amount of involvement from this man. this was felix sater's trump organization business card, senior adviser to donald trump. in the year 2000 he was one of a dozen people arrested in a mafia stock scam. this was a really big deal at the time. this got a lot of attention at the time because it was a gigantic swindle, about a $40 million scam that involved a lot of people.
