Far-right Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) this week referred to the various GOP factions meeting weekly to discuss strategy for when Republicans take control of the House of Representatives as “the five families.”
“The five families, you know the reference, the five families are part of our conference, all different parts,” the extremist congressman told former Trump White House chief strategist Steve Bannon on his “War Room” show .
“We get together and have discussions about how we’re going to govern in the majority,” Greene said. “And it’s literally my favorite meeting of the week.”
Greene didn’t explicitly explain her “five families” reference, but it was more than likely an allusion to the mob.
Bannon came to a break and seemed to suggest it wasn’t the best nickname.
“I hope those encounters work out better than the five family encounters in ‘The Godfather,'” he said. “They’ve gone to war.”
