Maybe blame the police next time if you think his sources are bullshit.
Nobody in law enforcement told Mr. Per Sources that Sarno made two dozen guys in the 2000s or that the Outfit today has 50-75 members. That's classic Burnstein BS.

My tolerance for Scott is higher than a lot on here, but nothing in that video other than maybe the “3 dozen”number seems outlandish to me based on what we know.

Just an update - a very knowledgeable source I share / receive photos from says this is William 'Smokes' Aloisio in the background holding the pool cue with the pinky ring. I am unsure the resemblance matches - if anyone knows better, would welcome another opinion.

I subscribed a couple years ago for the full 12 months to show support. Forgot to cancel before it renewed for another 12. After I read the article he wrote about Ralph Balsamo "breaking bread" at Thanksgiving with a Bronx blood member and being the "liaison" to the bloods in the Bronx for the genovese just because a picture got posted on Instagram of some guys in the can I just went ahead and cancelled it with several months left of the subscription. The sensationalism was just unbearable to me.

Doesn't mention Rainone I think? Whatever Rainone's last interaction was with Scott, it seemed to have worked.
What happened?
Rainone was displeased with an article Scott wrote identifying him as a mobster and contacted Scott, who actually posted an article about the interaction. He hasn't mentioned him by name since, instead referring to him indirectly. Scott does the same with the LoBues, just calling them "two Sicilian brothers" instead of their names.

FWIW, if you add up every single confirmed made guy as well as all the somewhat plausible rumored made guys (Mitria, Rovito, Marino, Gagliano, everyone) I think it does come to about 50.

I watched it last night and unfortunately there are no more specifics on who makes up the "Sarno Boys", outside of like Rovito and Carparelli. Otherwise it seemed to be Scott mostly repeating stuff from last year for the rest of the family and recapping some more recent GR articles.

Notably, he also says there are 50-75 "buttons" in Chicago today which I guess is keeping in line with the whole 24+ members made by Sarno notion
