Frank Lucas says he paid $4,200 for a kilo of heroin in Thailand. In Harlem, it sold for $60,000 to $70,000.
He says he moved the money through Chase Manhattan.
In the video below, the real “American Gangster” explains how it worked.
Lucas worked under Harlem boss Bumpy Johnson for 13 years. Bumpy wouldn’t touch drugs.
When Bumpy died in 1968, Lucas says he went around Harlem and collected the money people owed. About $3 million to $4 million.
He put it in Chase Manhattan, in different branches. Chase had a branch in Bangkok.
“All I had to do is go over there and draw it out.”
In Thailand, he says, he met a man he only calls “007.” Price of entry: $125,000.
“He showed it to me for the 300 keys.”
He says the heroin came back to the U.S. through military bases.
$4,200 a kilo in Bangkok. Up to $70,000 in Harlem. More than 15 times the price.
Denzel Washington later played him in “American Gangster.”
Asked what he regrets, he talks about the cars, the Rolls-Royce, and a diamond bracelet with his name on it.
“It cost me like 100 grand. What did it do for me? Garbage.”
The case for Lucas: he says he bought turkeys for Thanksgiving, paid rent for women in the neighborhood and sent kids to college.
The case against Lucas: the heroin he brought in by the hundreds of kilos was sold on the same Harlem streets.
So was Frank Lucas giving back to Harlem, or just paying it back with its own money?
Thank you.
I see you people smiling at the violence that happened in Delta.
Cautionary note. Delta. In two of three senatorial districts, political gladiators who were all at some point in the APC are fighting for the senate seat. Victor Ochei and Okowa are in Delta north while Omo agege and Dafinone are in central. I expect violence.
That one is not NDC versus APC. It is establishment politicians against themselves. Don’t get excited.

First in my bloodline to see witness something this incredible 🤯🥹❤️
What exactly is her realignment for? All of them are just opportunists.
Update: Serah Ibrahim confirms separation from Peter Obi, decamps to Seyi Makinde’s APM.
The former Obi stalwart Serah Ibrahim, hailed Seyi Makinde as the most outstanding presidential candidate on the ballots with capacity, vision and ideas to reset and lead Nigeria.

Idiots in very high places.
🚨 I call on Gov. Abbott to IMMEDIATELY convene a special session to REIN IN EXECUTIVE EMERGENCY POWERS… before Gina Hinojosa is sworn in!
Republicans lost last night, but Democrats were not sworn in.
We still have total power in Texas, and we must act like it by using the remaining ten weeks to restore separation of powers and limit the emergency powers that Governor-Elect Hinojosa is set to inherit, which would allow her to destroy liberty in Texas by executive fiat.
I’ve warned since I was first elected that NO governor, Republican or Democrat, should have unchecked emergency powers!
Now that Texas has elected a Democrat Governor, the urgency is undeniable… and inaction is intolerable.
Without action, Governor Hinojosa will inherit the powers of a DICTATOR.
Due to the absurd (and almost certainly unconstitutional) Texas emergency powers laws, Gov. Hinojosa will literally have the power to modify laws, ignore laws, or create and enforce laws – including criminal laws – on a whim!
Today is a day for ACTION, and bold leadership.
The Texas Legislature must immediately pass, and Governor Abbott must sign, legislation like HB911, which I filed in 2022 and warned at the time, that “Never ending emergency powers are antithetical to representative government and render people powerless. Legislative bodies allowing a single executive branch official to both write and enforce laws is the biggest threat to our constitutional system of divided government and should be opposed irrespective of which political party runs the executive branch.”
My legislation would protect liberty from executive fiat by, among other things, taking the following actions:
1. Prohibit the Governor from suspending or modifying statutes
2. Sunset emergency orders in 30 days if the legislature does not ratify the order
3. Prohibit the governor from reissuing emergency orders that expired or the legislature rejected
4. Require emergency orders to be narrowly tailored
5. Subject emergency orders to expedited judicial review
We have TEN WEEKS LEFT to protect Texas from near total Democrat rule.
I encourage every elected Republican in Texas to join my demand for Gov. Abbott to call a special session.
The future of liberty in America is literally on the line in Texas, and Texans deserve leadership that acts accordingly.
