Remember the arrogant, corrupt Nevada Senator in Godfather 2 that Michael Corleone brings to heel. That character was based on McCarran who used anti-Communism to cover a host of his sins. Whether he was ever actually brought to heel by is "goodfellas" benefactors, I dunno. I think the airport in Vegas or Reno is named after him.
