Buddy, I'm sorry to say this, but either your don is now lying to you to keep you on his good side, or your Vice President shouldn't be your second in command.
I believe Head Enforcer of kosher is 3rd in command I may be wrong tho. The sit-down happened. Demands were agreed upon, but demands weren't carried out. Another sit-down occurred, demanding your death, and then they followed through with it. What your faction should have done is ask if the tax was actually allowed by UA.
Nothing against you, mate, but it seems your HC sold u out, tho you should have apologised if your top 3 had told you to.
