Embattled US politician Marjorie Taylor Greene has said that she regrets some “words of the past”, but she did not specifically apologise for racist and violent rhetoric.

The newly-elected Georgia Republican asserted in a House speech that she was “a very regular American” who posted conspiracy theories from QAnon and others sources before she began campaigning for Congress, but that those views did not represent her.
