Livia Soprano ran North Jersey

Thinking about the way Livia (an old lady) made an asshole out of Junior in season 1. Orchestrating the hit on Tony might be reflective of how things went down with Johnny Boy back in the day. The whole Nevada situation (whatever happened there) and her wearing a tough guy like Johnny down to a fuckin nub. Makes sense to me that she could have been pulling the strings in this pigmy shit down in Jersey at least to a certain extent.
